[[1993 Cardtoons]] is a 95-card parody set intended for release in 1993, but not issued until over a year later.

The backs carry comical "career highlights" within silver-colored panels on the left sides and team logo caricatures on the right sides.

[[1997 Bowman's Best]] is a 200-card, rookie and prospect-themed set printed on chromium card stock. The set is divided into 100 current stars and 100 top prospects.
