Cal Ripken: Road to the Hall

This massive 100-card insert is a tribute to Cal Ripken, Jr. on the eve of his induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame. Since each card is of Ripken, listing a full 100-card checklist would be redundant. Each card is also available in a Gold parallel, which is serial-numbered to 99 copies.

Grand Slamarama

This 20-card set is printed on the same plastic substrate as the "Jambalaya" inserts in late-90s era Skybox E-X basketball sets. In fact, this set was originally titled "Grand Slambalaya" on the product solicitation forms.
