Not being a Monster collector, but knowing what a commitment that set is, congrats Cain!
Lets see what they look like all together!

My year was successful too. i didn't set specific goals, more like general ones.

I ended with three completed prewar sets all slabbed (or enroute to SGC)...E210 York type 1, E95 and E96. Significant strides in my other three other slab sets (E210 York type 2@ 80%, C46 Imperial@43%,T205 Master Set @87%)
No plans for new sets started, but often I am weak-kneed when I see other prewar opportunities

Also got up to 246 SGC HoFers for my registry. i have a lot more (maybe another 100 prewars) to slab or crossover, but these represent my collection pretty well. My goal is to hit 500 at this time next year, with a couple more 19th century players

My Topps run from 1953-80 sits at a meager 461 cards to go, a couple hundred knocked off just this past year! I have about a half set of 1952 Topps (no high numbers thank you) but haven't started the countdown to include them yet.
2014 goal here would be to get down to 300 or so for the more modern collection.

As is part of all colectors goals, I also want to de-clutter, organize and focus myself....Naw, that's part of the fun!
