National Chicle is an interesting product to buy as individual packs. Odds are you'll at least receive some interesting player or an interesting looking card. I would not buy a box of this to chase after the set (and with the absurd amount of SPs, it discourages me further). However, on a lazy Saturday afternoon, the reveals of a couple packs keep my attention...for a little while. The inclusion of retired players does lend some gravitas and excitement, though the depictions are not always ideal. Below are the images which caught my eye the most.

National Chicle is becoming one of my favs. I really like the cards you picked to scan. Some of the artists do a really good job with the player's likenesses.
