Absolutely. Actually all upper deck products with the NFL license would be great, but SPA was always one of my favorites. Only bought one box a year since they lost their NFL license.

RE: Sets you wish could come back...
My biggest "I wish they'd bring back" isn't so much a card set, but in insert set.
I want "HARDWEAR" back, as in the cards from Leaf Limited. Especially 2006 Hardwear and Limited Hardwear :
2007 had auto'd versions (I think) but no one I collected..
Beyond that, I miss Classic also. As well as most other Donruss/Leaf/Playoff products that Panini seriously destroyed since they took over. It's just not the same...
Some other "dark horse" products - Topps Lettermen and Topps TX. Just oddball sets I kinda liked, because they were so unique.

I always liked those Crown Royale sets, specifically the horizontal designs from 1995 -2001.

second this one - I liked just about anything Upper Deck made back when they had an NFL license, including sweet spot. I wish they had both college and pro license for sweet spot as well.
Also I miss Bowman Chrome as its own product
Looking for Carson Wentz Autos and Notre Dame Autos

Me too - finished the Favre rainbow of it a few months back! Was the set I always thought of as the Holy Grail as a kid.
I'll take a proper scan of them (now all graded) pretty soon and repost but I thought you might like it
Always in the market to grow my PCs of: Brett Favre, Aaron Rodgers or Dirk Nowitzki. If I have something you like I'll always be willing to trade even for those guys! Send me a message!

E-X was great.

I absolutely like the 1992 Topps Football Finest set. I'd love to see that one re done. It was the first introduction of a "chrome" type product by Topps.
