It was the first set I built. I liked it enough to build it. It had all of the stars of the day as well as All Stars (first I can remember all stars having a subset if you will in a set). Started by buying 2 cards and went from there. Traded for most, if not all, of the commons. Had to buy a few stars. Wound up spending about $500 to put the set together in Ex condition. That was over the course of 2012. It took me a year, and I said never again would I build another set if it takes that long. That is too long for a set to take to build.

I finished it in late 2012, and I sold it in April 2013 for $1,500. So I was able to triple my money. Looking back, I wish I'd have kept it.
