Nice design

majestik101 · 11-04-2025, 02:47 PM

I dunno, I kinda dig it.

It's also refreshing to see a football card on vintage stock, not on a chrome card with all sorts of funky things going on, like dinosaurs, bubbles, baby sharks, etc and what seems like 100+ parallels

Plus, the inclusion of on-card autographs and inscriptions are a nice touch

And price is reasonable.

Tempting.

FCG would agree.

Nah, this stuff wouldn't appeal to him at all, he doesn't see $$$$ signs in his eyes when looking at it

His jam is more shiny, grotesquely designed Wild Card and Leaf junk (going off his eBay seller listings)

Normally unlicensed NCAA does nothing for me. I tried my best to make myself like the Press Pass releases that came after 2009, but I never could bring myself to do so. If these can be pulled of similar to some of the Sportkings releases, where the featured photos are selected in a way that doesn't make it glaringly obvious that the team names/logos have been omitted, I may have to try them out.

Friendly reminder that any unlicensed products should be a criminal offense.

Is this supposed to look like heritage or something?

Checklist could be intriguing if they landed some of the big college names that are without BUC autos.

Heritage definitely seems to be the inspiration. Also slightly resembles the old Fleer Tradition.

Ah, good call. I was trying to figure out which product this reminded me the most of, and Fleer Tradition is spot-on.
