[[2009 Kellogg's Japan]] is a set of six "rulers" produced for the Japanese market. Each ruler measures fifteen centimeters and features lenticular printing of the player "in action." Unlike the previous two year's Kellogg's Japan sets, these "cards" do not have the Upper Deck branding.
[[1987 Donruss The Rookies]] is a 56-card boxed set released exclusively to Hobby dealers in a small green and black box.  The design on the set is identical to the [[1987 Donruss]] regular issue except for the presence of "The Rookies" logo in the lower left corner and a green border instead of a black border. Each set also came packaged with a 15-piece miniature version of the Roberto Clemente puzzle.
 
The key XRCs in this set are Ellis Burks and Matt Williams. The second Donruss-issued cards of Greg Maddux and Rafael Palmeiro are also in this set. Much like with the Wally Joyner in the [[1986 Donruss The Rookies | '86 set,]] the Mark McGwire card is quite condition sensitive due to it being the first card in the set.
