  1. Those are some sick patches…where are all of the Gmen???? The jones-drew one is awesome though. 3 colored and straight across. Wow!

  2. The C for Captain really looks great against a great design. With the prime materials they really stand out with the multiple colors.

  3. Had to come back and view these again! The Peterson is sweet too. I like the non prime ones as well Just like the one you guys pulled from your box break on The Knights Lance.

  4. While the set is nicely themed and the multi-color patches are certainly a welcome respite from single color patches in mid-high end products, I don’t understand the giddiness. I don’t mean to rain, but I don’t get the medieval connection. The inspired, “Score Franchise Tags” from the ’01 Score Select product bears autos of players of similar calibre and were appropriately rare, limited to just 50 copies per. Tony Gonzalez, Troy Aikman, Jerome Bettis, Curtis Martin, Junior Seau and other similar…and some lesser lights can be found in that legendary set. This is nice…but I expect something of this quality of I’m paying a $90-110 on a 6 pack box.

  5. would LOVE to put this set together, great look and design and great color to the prime’s, would been AWESOME to do a 1/1 version with actual captins patch version,maybe something to think about next year guys 🙂
