Crazy how I’m 38 years old and still love pulling out my X-men card binders that I’ve had since childhood. I wish I would have put more thought into completing sets when I was a kid, but I didn’t know much about collecting and completing sets, value and all. I still remember the sound and feeling of opening new packs and even the smell of new cards. Nostalgic for sure. Great vid, my dude and thanks for taking me back to simpler times.
i had this set as kids. we destroyed them cuz we threw our cards around like we were gambit.
Awesome
worth it
Also did this
This is both funny and sad at the same time.
Damn You Gambo
The first Marvel Masterpieces always hold a special place in my heart.
same
Same
Me too!!!!
Do you think they will go up in price? The 1994 edition Holo foil is pretty cool, been looking at them.
i actually still have those in my binder right now.
Damn! I remember going to a card store and seeing the Marvel Masterpiece back in '92 and feel in love with the artwork. I bought boxes to complete the set, but my nephew got a hold of it and yeah.... got demolished. 😭😭😭
Hopefully he got demolished in return 😄
This take me back to the golden days of collecting. I love the Masterpiece Collections. Thanks!
This is so awesome. I used to collect comic cards when I was little. I haven't seen them in years!! I love this so much.
When I was a kid I was starting to collect this set as well, but once Jordan came back, RIP to the marvel sets.
Dude that was me! 🤣 I saved all my lunch money and when he came back I said bye to marvel lol
Love this! I had these in a binder & took them everywhere with me as a kid. Left them in my back pack at a boys & girls club & came back & someone stole them. Broke my heart as a kid. I would still have them till this day if that didn’t happen. Thanks for sharing brings back memories.
In Carlsbad?
I saw who did it, it was a Latino kid.
Man this just brought back a TON of memories for me collecting these sets in the '90s. Now I want to collect them all over again!
Dave C Same...let me know, Dave! We can trade duplicates old-school. 👍
1994 is completely painted by Greg & Tim Hildebrant, even the bonus cards! Gotta love Boris and Julie - thanks for sharing this.
Man you always coming with that heat Gem! These are a blast from the past and hit the nostalgia factor big time! Thanks for the great content always. Keep it up!
Those are some killer cards. When you covered the '92 set I picked up three boxes of the 2003 TMNT cards on ebay.
Good score. 1996 was a turning point for Marvel with the bankruptcy. Many of the heroes who had their own titles wouldn’t be seen much for a few years. I got a lot of nostalgic feels looking at these with you, man. Thank you for sharing.
Hey gem,I use to collect marvel trading cards in the 90s but over the years lost them due to moving constantly.however seeing the trade card collection brought back memories to me and I really enjoyed and appreciated it.
Beautiful set! Going to look killer framed with your other set. Look forward to seeing them side by side when you get it finished.
1998 a kid sold me an entire album of 94's on Marvel cards, I kept them for my kids , they became hook on them bought lots of them , kept them in plastic , I still have them , pretty sure i have double sets . Now my kids are abroad serving , the album , and cards are still in my safe .
Impeccable timing on the video I just dug out my marvel masterpieces 94' and 95 marvel flair.
Love your videos Gem! They really bring back my childhood memories. Slight correction though...the 94 masterpiece set were done by the Hildebrandt bros. So a consistent set as well.
I remember seeing these cards when I was young. Such great artwork. Miss these times. Congrats on getting this set.
1994 fleer ultra x-men was my favorite loved the variety of art work on does .
damn! $800 thats commitment. Boris and julies art is iconic. its def a gem to have this set in your collection. Im still missing the checklist, portraits, and 5/6 double impacts.
You could frame the double impact cards in a shadow box style frame with a mirror back to show the art on the back. Do a nice marvel logo on it to set it off , that will allow you to frame , display , and see both sides of the cards and not have to buy two sets.
Would there be a way to setup the mirrors to where you're not looking at a reverse image? This sounds quite interesting.
3 best card art imo: wolverine in sewer, psylocke from double impact, and ghost rider card
This is awesome! Just the other day I was cleaning and found an entire binder of Marvel Masterpiece cards from my childhood in mint condition. I must have 200 cards from 92-96.
I love trading cards, a sealed box of those goes for like $1000 if you can find one
Great lookin set. So nostalgic. I missed out on this set but was in deep on the first few sets of marvel masterpieces. Loved how real they looked and a great way to learn about the characters.
The cards from the Hildebrandt Brothers are amazing too. In my home town some guys picked only the female characters, so it was pretty hard to get these cards, Psylocke and Rogue, were the hardest ones (today we have internet and everything is happiness). Vallejo and Julie also created some of the art for the cards of Cybernary, some of them were also very appreciated for the collectors in the 90s. Besides Eternal Champions, Boris Vallejo also painted the art cover for Golden Axe II for Sega Genesis.
I still have my complete first and second series in albums put away from when I was a kid. I absolutely love the Masterpieces series, and the first was my favorite.
Killer set. Man, brought me back.
I collected a lot of comic book cards when I was younger, but Marvel Masterpiece was always my favorite. I had most of this set. Beast is by far my favorite.
My favorite was the 1994 Fleer Ultra X-Men base set.. This was my first time seeing this set though.
I still have those. I like the 94 Flairs as well. So much pop in the color
Awesome set bro, i have the 92 set too and always wondered why it was never worth that much money, over production killed a lot of collectibles in the 90's! My favorite two cards from the 92 set are Spider-man and Hulk
My favorite set. Glad you made a video on it and got them.
I loved the masterpiece issues that collected all the artwork. Really beautiful work and it did hook me further in as well.
Damn thats sick, I swear I have this set somewhere in my garage, its midnight and Im gonna have to run and get my binder. I did find a box full of cards that are not in binders nor sleeves. Bunch of masterpieces and gold foiled signature ones. I iwll have to do something with them on my channel. Great video as always my guy.
Very cool set but 93 was my favorite! Also the older ones w/ purple embroidery were cool! Even the wrestling cards and batman cards were awesome! Miss the best days ever! The Superman cards from the 90s were awesome too
wow... I remember collecting this set. crazy how much is cost, never knew. I have the full base set, and the full golden frame set. Also 4 of the double impact ones. I remember searching ebay some years ago to try and complete my double impact. Just didn't feel like spending that much.
You going old school with this one! I think I was one of the only kids who would buy these from my local comic shop. The art is amazing on the MM 96's but I gotta go with the 95's as my favorite, and that's probably due to, from what I remember, the MM 95 set coming out at the height of the comic card collecting game. Looking forward to seeing what this looks like framed!
Nice set. Now I have to go look and see if I have that set. I was buying mostly shrink wrapped boxes of cards back then and just putting them away without opening them..
This is such a dope set of cards 👀 Great Artwork!
Can’t wait to see this framed! Such a sick purchase and worth every penny 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Very cool!!! Still love Marvel Masterpieces, I pick these up whenever I find them!!!
I had so many of these cards growing up. Thanks for sharing
I never knew they came out with that set. I have the 92 set which were awesome!!! Man I wish they brought this series back.
Damn this brings me back to childhood for real. I ended up giving away some of these cards to kids in my neighbood who couldn't afford them. thanks for sharing Gem! ✌️
You the man Gem I love those 90’s marvel cards the art was just mind blowing
I have two sets of that, one complete the other missing a few, loved those old cards
I didnt know these existed! Thank u for making a video on it.
Thanks for sharing this man!
Very nice collection! I still have some from back in the day. BTW, when you comment about the anatomy on some of the cards, let me tell you that Vallejo always uses pictures for reference, many times of his and Julie Bell's bodies, as they are/were both bodybuilders. :)
So happy to see some cards on the channel
Congrats on getting the set, man!!! Some great looking cards there
I recently dug out my boxed marvel cards. Have a few full sets of marvel universe series 199x and masterpieces '92. Sadly stopped collecting around 1994. I bought a pack of ultra-pro pages to insert the cards and look through them once again... Nice memories
Love the artwork. Thanks, Gem Mint.
Really enjoyed this I also collect cards it's what got me intro comics as well more of these card videos would be sick🙏✊✊✊🙋♂️
Good stuff man! Keep up the great content
nice addition! Im with you, 92 and 96 are amazing sets with consistent art. I picked up the 96MM for $24 over 20 years ago and its crazy how much they can go for. But they are worth it.
Nice to watch! Never know that it’s so rare! Have some Promo-Cards in Comic-Book Size of it. Appreciate them more now! 😁👍
Joe Jusko Marvel Masterpieces are timeless and so special to a lot of us. Always brings me back to when I was kid. I mean the smell alone of the 1992 set just brings it all back.
Brought me back on these cards, love the channel keep it up
"Most sought-after TCGs from the 90s are worthless"
*laughs in Magic*
If only I had stopped collecting marvel cards one year sooner while transitioning into mtg.
Still have my 94' marvel masterpiece set which was my last collected before getting into mtg during 4th/ice age
Dope set man what’s in all the binders on the shelves more cards or books?
Love this!! Yo this takes me back to my chilhood... the hunt is on once again..another black hole..thanks bro..lol keep this nostalgia coming..
lol...i keep doing it to myself too
I miss my Marvel Masterpiece. I stole and traded for that set. Came home after basic training. What cards? What comic books?
Yes!! 1992 MM by Joe Jusko is my all time favorite! I literally subscribed just because u said that 😂
i have that set framed too
Had this set as a kid, makes me wonder what the hell happened to most of my childhood collection now. I’d love to have some of these on a t shirt.
Different set than this, but my friend pulled an un-numbered Weapon X card when we were cracking packs from this era and I haven’t ever stopped coveting it. Loved this set too.
The 92 set is the best but I never even knew this even existed super dope
That's crazy. I still have cards from that set in my attic. Brings back some good memories of card collecting. Quick side question. Where do you get those big ass books with all the volumes in one?
you can get omnibus's anywhere you get comics, try cheapgraphicnovels
I bought a complete jim lee card set for $110 at the time. Still have it & still great after all this time despite how they have changed. Loved the marvel master peice series.
collected all of the marvel card sets in the 90"s.....got them all binded up too .
I will have to look and see which series I have then. I remember getting the series one year and thought they were cool and collected the subsequent years. Not sure if I have complete sets or not as I want to say I was missing some cards b/c I left spots in the binder sleeves blank. I could have been the special inserts or limited cards that I was missing. Some of these cards do look very familiar.
Loved this set as a kid and still do at 45. Classic stuff man!
Bro those are so bad ass cards, im still working on my 95 set. Good luck to you on those double sided set.
I thought 1991 and 1992 was the best art work in the masterpiece sets. I have the first two sets and only half of the 1996 soon I'll have it all lol good video brother brings back memories.
I recently came across an entire binder full of perfect and near perfect condition marvel 90s cards. Super cool. I kind of need help with figuring out value .. not sure where to go.
I literally just pulled this entire set out of a recycling bin
Nice pickup! Maybe as a display idea- is to get a custom glass/plexiglas frame so that you can flip the display when you want to see the back? Keep it up Gem!
I miss collecting trading cards, had everything from Marvel to Star Wars, to the 1989 Batman, I even had Horror movie cards...
I really liked collecting 95' Fleer Ultra Spider-Man trading cards. Still own em' n in a binder like that.
Kinda wished it Marvel Vs. DC still was a thing.
That's cool I got a bunch of those master piece card in a binder with signatures on them
Yooooo skrilla!!!! It’s alejandro! I used cut you up at the final cut in Deerfield a few years back!!!
I've a similar spiderman collection same type folder too.. I it in Florida in the 90s still l9ve it
Now this brings back memories. I was into sports trading cards and a comic fan so these were a natural transition for me. Even had the marvel ones where they were putting the characters into Halloween costumes. Lol I was a mark and proud.
I still love the old 90's X-men set, series 1. All Jim Lee art. For the $500 double cards get a double sided frame and rig some sort of sliding rack so you can flip it while wall-mounted.
I used to collect theses card like crazy ! Beautiful artwork
I've hung on to a base set of the dark knight masterpiece Series. Wonder how that one goes for?! The art was magnificent
''that outfit is painted on" LOL
I mean he's not wrong.
LOL, that's pretty much why I passed on MM96 even back when it was just $200 for the base set. I thought all the art looked so cheesy.
I have a few of the 94 masterpieces, I have a full set of the Fleer Ultra 95 X-men set. I remember only buying the packs because they were all foil printed, then they had the smaller sets within the main set. They had the Wolverine timeline cards, Lethal Weapons rainbow foil set, Haunted X-Mansion holloween set, and the 3D embossed Alternate X set. Took me back to elementary school with this vid, had to bust out the old card album lol
DOPENESS fam awesome set i remember having a few of these when i was 1st collecting had all the other sets you mentioned and still have them till this day KUTGW BIYAOW VENOM OUT!!!
I like Boris' work as well, he did alot of Sci-fi paperback covers!
That set looks nice , I think the card set by the Hildebrandt brothers was far better!
I agree the hildabrant set was dope
Awesome video! Jealous. Very cool set that is super rare for sure!
My grandfather and I have like 4 extra large binders completely full of these cards. is there any website that we could use to best value them?
Damn brother! I'm def jelly! Congrats!!
Bruh hearing u say ur gonna frame them next to ur other set makes me so happy. Cant wait to see it. Can u elaborate a little more on these cards a bit? Did the artists actually do big paintings of these and then they shrunk them down to make em card size?
yes! they actually had special cards in this set that allowed you to get the original art!
Love the set. I just picked up a few marvel trading cards my self.
Gem, I had this whole set. They were going for 20 bucks 10 years ago lol. Don't even get me started on all the Overpower cards from later series I sold...
I had these masterpieces back in 1993 ...that's an amazing set. Can't wait to receive my wolverine from then till now set.
Seeing this today reminded me I have the entire collection....thanks for the payday
