I'm trying to get some discussion going, we all have different opinions on things. I'd like to know what you think the most overrated sets are, I have a couple in mind.

Please provide pics or a decent reason and not just "anything from panini".

:)

It may be something overpriced or something that just doesn't appeal to you.

Looking forward to hearing thoughts.

An overpriced set is Momentum... however I'm not sure if this is over rated, as last I checked no one was buying it anyway!
 
I'm being a bit hypocritical here (since I own 2 of them), but I think 90% of Flawless has a very lazy looking design (i.e. just a white background with some foil on it). Id much rather something like Immaculate which finds a better balance between being clean and having some color.

Apart from a select few sets such as the Jumbo patches and the dual patch autographs, a lot of the cards look half done imo:

I couldn't agree more, while the white certainly does work, it's totally overdone in this set. Hopefully they change it up for this year.
 
Personally, I have found the 08/09 PMG's to be one of THE most overrated, probably not so much now, but they were huge and pricey not so long ago.

They don't look that great in hand (only my opinion) and they're constantly peeling.

One of the worst sets for surfaces, edges and generally has no wow factor
