Any player collectors going after NT plates?

As some may know, due to my OCD with my Aminu collection I've set the goal of nabbing all 40 printing plates from the last NT release.

My question is how many of your hardcore PC guys are going after all the plates, and if so how many plates are you chasing and how many have you landed.

I believe I've landed 20 of 40 so far which is a pretty decent effort. I've found that there's really been a dry spell since the original release and subsequent flooding of these things on the market and I'm starting to doubt if the other plates will be listed, but I'm trying to stay hopeful.

Also have any of you doubt that all the cards listed on the plates checklist where released? I haven't any of the supposed Shillouettes plates or the Gold standard white gold plates yet I have seen several of the other. Also I am yet to complete and of the plate sets. I've managed to land 3 out of 4 plates in 3 sets with a possible 3rd plate in a 4th set, but really hoping to complete some of these sets soon. I just need yellow NT logoman plate which I'd really like to land to complete the logoman plate set as it's one of my fav cards in the PC.

Nope no way i was going for all of them. Once i saw the Payton/Kemp logoman plates selling in the $200+ range i said F it and decided i'd just grab whatever i could below $30. I've managed a few so far (maybe 8 total) of DJ & Payton combined but im not bothering with anything too expensive.

Where possible, but the Ceballos plates have been going upwards of $40. I have got a fair few Okafor plates on the cheap mind you.

What I don't understand is where they draw the line for what plates they are using from what years.

I've had plates from these releases-
12/13 NT
12/13 Certified
12/13 GS
11/12 Certified
09/10 NT

I guess its just certain products they did...

Yeah I saw those logoman plates go for crazy prices! I've been staying away from the Kemp plates as some have gone for $150 which is just insane.

Yeah I really don't know what the thought process was with the plates. It'd make sense if they released plates for just the cards from 12-13 sets but I guess that's too logical!

Yes, I would pick up any of Stojakovic I can find. I think I missed one but amy trying to pick up any others. They are not too expensive for him, which is good.

I've been picking up Orlando plates, have about half a dozen - mainly Andrew Nicholson and Glen Davis. Only getting ones I can get for less than $10!

I'm like Verse...get them when I can, but wont pay a lot for them.... i have about 15-20 Lambs I think. But you're right, they've really dried up since just after release time!

Me for sure I want them all. I have 24 k loves so far with a lot more on there way. Love love platea

I originally thought to post this thread after I noticed 2 Aminu plates come up after not seeing any since the period after the release!

I definitely like the plates too. The idea of owning part of the process of making the cards you already own is cool. Plus they are still 1/1's!

I need to check, but I'm also looking for all plates released for Paul George

Plates can't be considered as cards imho, but they are my fav items, hands down, just love them!

Wondering if you can still use them in a printing process, could be funny
