Then there is this one:
It has a gold embossed seat front left which reads "1931 1995 Mickey Mantle" with a Topps logo. The back says it is from the Mickey Mantle Commemorative Set. The # is "2656/S5" and handwritten.

I think all of the regular issue Mantle's are available in this format, I have 4 myself. If I remember correctly they were offered through a firm called The Hamilton Collection.
There's a bunch of porcelain sets aside from the 1993's, here are just a few
-1962 Topps Babe Ruth Story (10)
-T206
-Yankees legends, a few Yankees stars from the 50's like Stengel, Berra, etc
-Rookie cards- Rookies from the 70's and 80's mainly, guys like Bonds, Eckersley, Puckett, Henderson
-Nolan Ryan (every regular Topps Ryan from 68-93)
There's also a number of single player sets where one or more cards are autographed. I know Ripken has one. There's also a few R&N China which are reprints of Upper Deck cards.
