2006 Fleer Ultra

Oh, excuse me...it's just Ultra apparently.  You know what? Screw that.  It's Fleer Ultra.  Not Ultra.  Fleer Ultra. 


I gotta stop picking up so many random packs.  Here's what the 2006 design looks like:


I much prefer the Gold Parallels of 2006 to the 2007 one that were much harder to distinguish.


Both of mine were Phillies.  Oh well.  At least Rollins is rocking his old hair.  Lucky 13s exist in this set, too:


There are also Rising Stars that feature players that typically didn't rise into stars:


Hey, at least this guy is still around...well, sorta-ish.  Ultra has some ok inserts.  Not horrible, but not great.


I managed to get a relic, and while it has no value, it did make me laugh.


I'm not 100% certain, but this has to be close to the worst relic in all of 2006 Fleer Ultra.  It's an Orioles card, so it has the orange motif, but features him as a Cub and my keen senses tell me that's not likely an Orioles swatch.

I would be interested in trading you for the Rollins and Burrell cards (I collect Phils). I could knock a few cards off your 2012 Topps Football wants list (150, 173, 234, 288, 316, 346, 418) and one from your 2012 A&G (Baseball highlight sketches BH-8 [Jeter]). Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks.
