621.0. "94 UD Collector's Choice" by GWEN::ASHE (Detriot(tm) Lions: 1993 NFC Cent. Champs) Mon Jan 03 1994 13:12

    I bought a box of UD Collector's Choice in Albany for $29, which
    included the Griffey promo card.  Haven't finished with collating
    yet.  Each pack has a silver "autograph" card, with 1 pack/box with
    a gold "autograph" card.  Didn't see any other inserts.

621.1Not a bad set ...PENUTS::JST_ONGEJohn St.Onge USDSL DTN 275-2715Tue Jan 04 1994 07:4318
    I picked up a box of these also.  Actually it looks like a regular
    UD set with a different name. Anyway, there's a 10 card draft pick
    subset,  a 20 card Rookie Class subset, a 10  card  Top Performers
    subset (nice looking cards), 5 checklists that look like the packs
    themselves. I got a  8  card All-Star Home Run Insert Winner Card.
    It must be the top 8 finishers  in  last year's All-Star game home
    run contest.  Suprisingly I got a complete set of the Draft Picks,
    Rookie Class, Checklists  and I was one card short of the Top Per-
    formers.  I got Greg McMicheal for the Gold Signature card.  So it
    looks like the collation was better than usual.
    
    Hey Walt did you get  any  of the "autograph" checklists ? I got a
    Bonds and Griffey so I'm only missing three now.
    
    Remove "Collector's Choice" and you've got a regular UD set. 3 out
    of 5 sticks on the Gum-o-meter.

    I may have got a Bonds one.  I'll check.  I know  I got a couple of the
    leader cards (victories maybe?).

    I also opened a couple of boxes.  I like them.  I'm not going to put
    sets together so if anyone wants sone singles send list with SASE to
    me at Mike Kelly

621.4Series II outPENUTS::JST_ONGEJohn St.Onge USDSL DTN: 297-9527Sat Jun 18 1994 10:5221
    Picked up a box and some extra packs  of  Series II.  Set includes a
    Micheal Jordan Rookie Class card,  but then what set doesn't include
    a Jordan card nowadays.  It also includes  an  Up Close and Personal
    Micheal Jordan cards.  I did pretty good  as  far as the silver sig-
    nature cards go - 10 of the team checklists, 3 of the set checklists
    including Griffey, Thomas and Gonzalez, a regular Thomas and Jordan.
    
    Anyway, set includes 7 set checklists, 28 team checklists (nice full
    bleed star shots),  10 card Up Close  and  Personal subset,  10 card
    Future Foundation subset and 20 cards Rookie Class subset.
    
    It'll be a pain getting all the checklists since the team checklists
    are all stars.
    
    The scratch off contest is kind of weird. Joe Zelent pointed out his
    box had all winners for the 5th place prize.  It was the same for me
    and the single packs.  UD will be shelling out some bucks if all the
    scratch off cards  have  5th place winners.  The odds say 1:35 packs
    for a 5th place winner.

    Walt,
    
    I think I saw UD CC BB at BJ's in Westboro last Friday for $24.99 + tax
    when I bought my UD CC FB box for the same price.
    
    If it wasn't Collector's Choice BB then it was regular UD BB and then
    it was much more expensive.
    
    I just can't remember whether I saw it at BJ's on Friday or Costco in
    Waltham on Wednesday night.
    
    Sorry!
    
    Regards,
    Denny

    Denny, it definitely wasn't the UD regular series for 25$ + tax. They
    wanted 49$ I think for that. The Collector's Choice was 25$.
