TriStar Sell Sheet
The standard sized cards are bordered in blue and feature either a ring entrance or action shot of the wrestler. The set name, logo and wrestler name are located in the corners of the card front. The card backs have a smaller cropped photo of the one on the card front. The card cards usually have a quote about the pictured wrestler from another wrestler and recent activities from the past year. Both the card fronts and backs have a glossy sheen to them.

*********************************************************
Always a very fun rip, Tristar TNA continues to pack a lot into their serial numbered boxes. The perfect collation yielded a complete base set and right on the stated odds of hits. There are three sub-sets to chase where Kurt Angle, Tar, and RVD give their thoughts of some of the sports biggest stars. The parallel cards will leave master set builders busting lots of boxes as there are several different serial numbered tiers to collect. The autos are sticker autos but are designed to fit the cards. the "Impact" sized memorabilia Sting card is supah-sweet!
The Bottom Line:
I give 2011 TriStar TNA Signature Impact a STRONG BUY rating. A complete set from one box for the set collectors is nice and the hits rock!
The Final Score:

TriStar sent me this box to review for Baseball Digest. I am also offering these cards to members of The Bench for a SASE.
Thanks to TriStar for making this review possible!
