Shigeo Nagashima & Masaichi Kaneda cards

I have been collecting their cards for about a year now, maybe longer. I decided to add their cards to this site. You can find them in the mneu on the left at the bottom. I will only be adding what I have purchased and not sure I'll ever add a checklist for them because they have so many menkos/bromides I'll never get aorund to buying and/or finding. So Buehrle, Lee, Nagashima and Kaneda have become the main four players I collect. I have purchased the newest 2021 BBM Lees and am hoping to land more soon.

2021 SCC KBO Rainbow set breakdown

Here is the breakdown for the soon-to-be-released (June 30th) 2021 SCC KBO Rainbow set. There is no base set, it's all parallels. Boxes will cost W150,000 ($138) and include one guaranteed auto and rookie parallel. Try searching here to buy a box online from Korea.



As you will see below, all players in this set will have an auto numbered to /24. Total players in the set is 199, E01 was removed from Hanwha, otherwise all teams have 20 players each, featured in the various parallels. This set will include Shin-soo Choo's first KBO card (SCC-21/S17). I will add these to TCDB when I hear back about the best way to upload sets that dont have a base set.

2021 Hobby Goals

In no particuar order, these are my goals for 2021.

1 - Purchase a certified Korean issued Lee Seung-yuop autograph.
2 - Continue to try and build illustrated and die-cut menko sets.
3 - Continue to find more Lee cards I am missing and submit to PSA.
4 - Put menkos in tobacco sheets in a binder.
5 - Work on an excel sheet for all foreign NPB players
6 - Collect NPB cards of foreign players
7 - Attempt to find and buy more 2014-15 Blue Edition coin cards
8 - Send KBO HOF RC to PSA
9 - PSA sub reveal of a Lee submission.
10 - Try to get PSA to grade past N9'd Lees.

Some of these goals are more important to me than others. Glancing over these, I think 1, 2, 3, 4, 9 and 10 are the most important to me, at the moment. Feel free to link me to your 2021 hobby goals in a comment below.
