Had to share a few favorites from my PC. Both Ohtani Project70s are pop 2, with the horizontal version being an on-card auto. The 2017 Japanese issued Ohtani comes from his final season in the NPB, one of those true end-of-era pieces that hits differently in hindsight.

The Kobe has been a long chase, especially in the green faded chrome, and it being my birthday year makes it even sweeter. I’ve always loved these color forward designs. The depth, texture, and presence just feel more intentional than standard foil border variations or mass inserts.
