Unique set in the sense that foil was used on the players themselves and not just the backgrounds.

Lol I’ve learned to embrace Kemp there. Still remember there were multiple questions in Becketts Readers Write thinking their Holoview was an error because of Kemp. The set not having Penny or Jordan hurt it some but I love that they have cards like Khalid Reeves and Piatkowski who are more obscure players.

Anyways, I was at a flea market and found a couple of these in a box and I had never seen a moving hologram before. I thought it was the coolest thing as a kid and it ended up being one of the first insert sets I ever completed. I did the same for 1995-96 but was never fond of the 1996-97 design.

This thread rules. The mix of nostalgia and cool looking stuff (and the surprise of 90s insert sets I didn't know existed) tickles my fancy, indeed.

Want to post some of the ones I haven't seen mentioned.

This one screams 90's. Acetate with neon colors.


Embossed, shiny, and affordable


Fleer/Skybox is king of 90's. Topps did have a few really good ones. Not a high-end set but very cool. The hologram stars and basketballs with team colors incorporated. Very nice cards. I'm a leave the peel oner!


Can't go wrong with these. They have skyrocketed in value because of the look. Die cut with glitter text.


One of my favorites from 2000-01. How 'bout them Top Story parallels? The basic ones are just as nice.


This one doesn't need much description. Etched and velvet-like surface. Ohh so cool.

I have liked this set since it was released. The color and the design is really cool.
