I remember I liked them in an effort to collect all of the different patterns of a specific player. Who's going to do that with a high end product? I was happy to hear it was coming back. But now I'm not that happy.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3390422136858076282.post-66249394996552788642014-03-17T16:18:49.333-08:002014-03-17T16:18:49.333-08:00Tek came along when I wasn't collecting or pay...Tek came along when I wasn't collecting or paying much attention to baseball, so I don't have any feeling about its revival.<br /><br />I would have liked to see Stadium Club come back as a full set in the mid-1990s style, but I'm not interested in another attempt that will probably be like the 2008 disaster.Paul Hadsallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16886355050567035004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3390422136858076282.post-42742017910114600512014-03-17T14:28:19.037-08:002014-03-17T14:28:19.037-08:00Was just in Chris Nachos Grande's group break ...Was just in Chris Nachos Grande's group break that busted a box of Tek. I like it for the most part, but there were too many background variations and many of them were silly looking. I liked the 3 or 4 that were just of the team logo or cap logo the hometowns, and the average and some of the other variants were too silly and ugly. The inserts were pretty nice. I had the Orioles in the break, I really should have grabbed The Expos as well (since it was a pre 2005 product the Nationals were incognito as the Expos back then), but I dilly-dally'd too long and someone grabbed them.<br /><br />The original version, I only learned about/saw in recent years (I was in a collecting hiatus in the late 90s early '00s). The very first time I saw it I hated it. Must have been one of the silly variants I had seen for a first example. I will wait until this product has been out a while before attempting to get anything. I'll wait until I can "pick and choose" rather than doing blind box breaks/pack pulls.CaptKirk42https://www.blogger.com/profile/16039278539984069944noreply@blogger.com
