THE INSERTS
Rookie Watch®
More great rookie cards! More amazing imagery! This set featuring the best-of-the-best 2025-26 rookies emulates the Base Set design, construction and presentation. This set also has the same parallel lineup as the Base Set. Keep an eye out for those 1-of-1 True Gold Monochrome parallels!
Mounted Slide Relics
Each 60-pt. card in this set numbered to 100 boasts an outstanding action image printed on a PETG sheet that is encased within two die-cut C2S sheets to emulate the look of a mounted film slide. All rookie cards feature an “RC” designation. The checklist is the same as the stellar Matted Silver Border checklist. Look for one (1) of these cards per box, on average, and chase rare Silver (#’d to 50), Gold (#’d to 10) and Type Zero Black (#’d 1-of-1) parallels!
Aspects is an all-horizontal card set boasting vibrant, full-bleed action images of 25 star players; Dark Room features a mixed 25-card checklist (star vets & top rookies) and action images with a red filter applied to mimic the look of a photo being developed in a dark room; Imprints also features a mixed star veteran/top rookie checklist, and each action image is overlayed with Tableau™ watermarks; each card in the Triple Exposure set boasts an action image with two subsequent images superimposed over the original. Collect two (2) cards per box, on average, from these four sets! All cards are 40 pts.
Plexi Variants
These 60-pt. plexi variations of the top standout/star veterans and rookies from the Base Set – all #’d to 65 – will be a huge hit with collectors! Each card from this set, as well as the True Blue Monochrome (#’d to 15) and True Gold Monochrome (#’d to 5) parallel sets, is encased.
Babineau Collection
This set takes the Base Set card of 50 top veterans and replaces the photo with one from the collection of legendary sports photographer Steve Babineau! None of the photos in this set have appeared on a hockey card previously. Each card back features a brief story from Steve about the player, the photo, or both. Each box will contain, on average, two (2) of these 40-pt. cards. Keep an eye out for Autograph parallels (#’d to 25) hard-signed by Steve himself, as well as all-metal Glossy Steel (#’d to 50) and Glossy Gold (#’d 1-of-1 and hard-signed by Steve) variations – all of which are encased!
Shutter Speed Signatures
More encased, hard-signed autograph cards! This varied-numbered set features left-edge to right-edge full-bleed action images manipulated to simulate movement. It also boasts a loaded checklist, including top rookies! Keep an eye out for Silver Spectrum (Varied #’ing) and Gold Spectrum (#’d 1-of-1) parallels!
