I had seen some of the 2008-09 OPC retro on eBay and I thought they looked great. Then I saw that there was a Legends subset that had the retro design and I decided that I would go after that subset. The Retro design is based off the 1979-80 OPC set. The set that had Wayne Gretzky's rookie as well as the final season cards of Grodei Howe, Bobby Hull and Stan Mikita. I am really excited about trying to collect these. I got my first batch in from my new favourite site,
Sportlots.com. I am going to track my progress on this blog. The link is under pagers on the right side of the page.

Love these cards. The best product UD put out under the OPC title ever. Shame they couldn't continue the trend on account of Topps.
ReplyDeleteI think this was the best set of the past 10 years. Agreed that it's hands-down the best OPC product UD ever made.
ReplyDeleteNot really surprising that Topps would put a stop to it, though.
