The Power Players set is currently listed under "inserts." But on the card it says parallel and the cards feature the same photos as the base set, howerver the numbering is different. What's the call, an insert or parallel? ------------------------------- CJF, from the middle of nowhere. Hiya buddies!

Since the checklist is rearranged compared to the base set, I agree with Insert, regardless of the photography. -Tom ------------------------------- Ted Musgrave card collection 98.9% Complete: Cards Known: 1013, Cards Owned: 1002 I prefer the company of people who disagree with me for the right reasons over the company of those who agree with me for the wrong reasons.

Agreed. Generally, if a set is not as large as the base set it's paralleling, it needs tobe numbered the same as the base set to get "parallel" status. (Or basically the same - like the Gold Medallions in Ultra have a G appended...)

These are an insert.
