I think these are sweet looking cards, and I am very interested to see how their value holds up long term. Here are the 4 I picked up today
I picked up the Rendon's because I will probably start collecting him. The green ones are the "base", and the Blue Rendon is a parallel #/99. I also added the Bundy because he'll be a stud, and added the Springer because he's an Astro and his base auto is short-printed.
LMK your thoughts on these
Those are sweet. They look like the old Donruss Crusades cards of the 90's!

That's what they were modeled after. The Leaf owner said he had a lot of requests to make a similar product, and his card designer was the guy that designed the original Donruss cards. I am anxious to get them in hand and see how they look and I hope they're gradeable
I imagine they look great in person. I just received my first "new" Leaf card in the mail yesterday and it looks ten times better in person than in a scan. Great looking cards.

Thanks for the info. Did you get a Valiant or a Metal card?

Ah, probably should have clarified that. It was a red refractor from the 2011 Ali set.
those preview sheets BG posted in a video on some other forums looked incredible for this set. total knockoff and all I still think they look awesome. props to BG
I like them a lot. sweet cards.
