KBO Cards: 2015-16 SMG Ntreev Samsung Lions Collection

Okay, now I'm using the SMG tag. They do have the lead part of the copyright line, so I guess I should...

As you may have guessed, this set features only Samsung Lions players. There is also a set featuring only Doosan Bears players, but that's a post for another day.

There are 44 cards in this set, and at first glance it looks like you get 40 different players (no repeats). There are a few short prints here, but a majority of the set are normal cards.

The set has a 2015 copyright line, but the card numbering (SBC16SA- prefixes) indicates a 2016 set.

 Cards 1 and 2 are SS (Superstar) cards, with gold foil backgrounds and facsimile signatures.
 Cards 3-5 are BS (Big Star) cards, all of which having the wavy glass block background.
 #6-8 are AS (All Stars), with team logo backgrounds.
Finally, #9-44 are N (Normal) cards. Player cards end at #40, with #41-44 being team cards (logo, mascot, stadium, and a team photo).

There are three rare subsets:

  • Super Piece: #45-49, memorabilia (I believe)
  • Super Auto: #50-55, autographed (I believe)
  • Super Stick: #56-65, clear cards
These rare cards probably shouldn't be considered part of the regular set, just like the autographs, memorabilia, and other limited "subsets" found in Ntreev/SMG's other sets.
