2017 PENNANT BOX BREAK - PACK 24

40. Daniel Murphy


205. Jason Castro

43. Adrian Beltre

53. Brandon Finnegan

149. Trea Turner

297. Justin Verlander

117. Matt Duffy

228. Raisel Iglesias

250. Matt Harvey

DT3. Jose Altuve - Dream Team


And here’s the final pack of our 2017 Pennant box. Seems pretty fitting for the final card of 2017 to be Jose Altuve considering it was his year. 
I’m trying to look at the designs objectively but it’s really hard for me not to be sick of seeing them after all this time. I know I was definitely more excited about the base design way back when than I am now. The lack of a team logo really sticks out to me. But overall I think it was successful enough calling back to the era.
I don’t know what 2018 has in store for me as far as fake card designing goes. I’ve actually put together a few cards for the Spirit base set but I’m not sure if I have the energy to do a full box break like I did this year. I’m sure I won’t just abandon everything, but I can’t really foresee what the future holds. Whatever it may be, I hope you stay interested.

187. Francisco Lindor

221. Bryce Harper

91. Brandon Finnegan

TL85. Dan Straily - Team Leader (CIN-Ks)


Pretty strong pack here with 3 all-stars, a future Hall of Famer and two rookie cards. I had already made the checklist and designed these cards when Yordano Ventura passed away, so we have our second posthumous card of the box.
