A question for those familiar with this set:

The Bright Lights insert has all neon yellow scans except for two cards which we show as purple: #7 Aikman and #17 Batch. Looking at COMC, these two cards exist in neon yellow like all the others, and according to Beckett, the cards may appear in either neon yellow (which look green in some scans) OR purple (or the rare unannounced/unplanned Orange, which we've already separated out). Checking eBay, I didn't see any other purple background ones, and COMC doesn't have any either.

Does anyone know if the full 20-card set was done in purple? I feel like we need neon yellow scans for Aikman and Batch to match the rest of the set, but I don't know if the whole checklist should be copied over for purple.

I have never seen a purple Marino. These cards are translucent. I believe the uploader is scanning with a purple background. I looked at his recent uploads and a purple background is visible on this card.

I don't see any hint of yellow on those purple scans though. Even if it was a purple background, I'd still expect to see some mix of the two colors.

Here are the yellow Aikman and Batch from COMC

That user loaded up scans of nine different cards in this set on the same day.  Their other scnas don't look purple.  I doubt they would have used different backgrounds while scanning all on the same day..

Sometimes they are faded. I sent a message to the uploader to see if he can confirm. I've never heard of a purple version and don't believe everything that beckett says. Even if there are a few examples, I don't believe the full set would exist.

The uploader said he left the scanner cover open and that they weren't purple.
