Did I get any White Sox cards? No. Was I stuck with a bunch of junk wax? No. Was it worth the time and effort. Not really. Was it still cool? Yeah, kinda.
It's always a little cool turning insert cards magically into regular cards. Let's see how I fared after nearly six hours.
A picture featuring a 1963 Bob Gibson....
Magically turns into a 1987 Tony Gwynn!
Not an upgrade but a nice card of a Hall of Fame player.
A picture of a 2001 Ichiro...
Poof! Turns into a 2005 Mariano Rivera!
Not exactly an upgrade, but a great player in exchange for a great player!
A picture of a 1969 Mickey Mantle...
Shazaam! Turns into a 1971 Playoff card featuring Bob Tolan!
Vintage for vintage is something I can believe in!
A picture of a 1985 Mike Schmidt...
Kablooey! Turns into a 1966 Ralph Terry!
OK, I was fearing the worst, but I think I did pretty good. Not great, but pretty good. A Hall of Famer, a potential Hall of Famer and two vintage cards. Not too shabby!

Not bad! I would definitely trade you for the Ralph Terry but I don't have anything worthy yet.I just posted my first 4 cards.
You did pretty well.
At least you got some vintage. I have only redeemed one so far a 1989 George Brett.
You did really well as far as vintage and the quality of the non-vintage players.
Gwynn... I didn't get any Gwynns... Of course, I don't need another '87 Gwynn, but it would have been cool to type the code and... BLAMMO! Gwynn!
You got some cool cards. I have to admit it is really fun to see what everybody has received.
any interest in my 66 johnny romano
