Which one do you prefer and why?

Out of these three:

I like the SP Authentic. I used to have one of those. I wish I kept it. I like how the autographs are more visible against a light background. I've always like autographs on clear acetate like the Trilogy, but I think those are more prone to fading. I would love to have any though. I'm not picky.

I like the Ultimate the most, Rodmans auto looks better so does MJ's, + the pic of rodman is badass ;)

I agree with that. Maybe I'll own one of these one day.

The SP, shows off the autos better with the lighter background. The Jordan and Rodman autos are both in their "box, the "S" in Scottie is outside of the "box" but being a lighter background it dont effect it.

JMHO

Those cards in general or those EXACT cards?

If you're talking in general, I think the SP Authentic one looks fantastic. I've always thought those Ultimate ones (that year in general) looked a bit weak.
If you're talking those specific ones, I think the Trilogy narrowly over the Ultimate, though it could be a toss-up. The auto on the Jordan SPA is a little messy.

I like the Ultimate Collection.

1. The Trilogy is nice but the box provided for players to sign seems a bit small, which is why I think the signatures come out the box and I don't like that. Yes, it's true in the Ult. Coll. MJ's & Pips' auto's come out the autograph box but it looks better than the Trilogy does, IMO. Their sigs seem less crushed in the Ult. Coll. than Trilogy where they're forced to sign in a small space.

2. I dislike the head pics used in the Trilogy the most. The head shots used in SP Authentic are superb but based on the fact that Rodman has a towel over his head in the Ult. Coll. that bumps it over the SP Authentic, for me at least it does, lol.

3. The MJ autograph on SP Authentic looks a little sloppy to me and I don't like how Rodman couldn't keep his signature in a straight line on the SP Authentic.

Even though MJ & Pippen signed out of their respective boxes, I like how it ended up versus the other 2 cards. It's not a catastrophe for me. So, if I could have any of those 3 cards...I'd definitely pick the Ultimate Collection

ETA - I like this thread, people should do more of them, haha

I'd take any one of those!!!! It's my ultimate dream card. BUT, if I had to choose I'd pick the Ultimate triple because I have all their ultimate signatures single autos from the same year.

Wow, thats amazing you have each of their base autos from that same year of Ult. Coll, sick lol!!

Interesting insight man. Funny thing was it was a toss up between the Ultimate and the Trilogy but i ended up with the trilogy even tho the ultimate was $200 less haha.......just didn't like the auto's on it, not the design.

SICK!! Didn't realise that pic was so sexy!

Both. At least i don't have to choose anymore. Brought them way before the MJ boom and not regretting the purchases.
