Here is another PG13 from my pc. His 2019-20 Certified Black Mirror 1/1. This one gives off like a blue glow when the light hits it just right...

Excellent show.

Seriously though, didn't know those were considered mirrors. I love how Certified looks 2018 and beyond with the game photos. Seeing the blue in your photo, that's a very cool effect.

The 2014,15,16 are more closely related in terms of design than other years.

After seeing people on IG and now you guys drool over these things I was still skeptical but... I saw a low numbered one at a great price over the weekend at a card show and bit.

There's a lot of local guys around me who are big fans because he went to U of A. That paired with his absolutely amazing defensive job against LeBron/AD/KD/JimmyButler over the course of the NBA Playoffs, and the guy's legendary performance at the Slam Dunk Contest years back, I had to pick it up at the price as it was too good of a deal to pass up.

I'm probably not going to keep it, and it will probably just be flipped (which I don't do often), but it's giving me a chance to appreciate it for now.

So...how do you feel about them now that you own one? :)

I can see the appeal for sure between the rainbow foil and the texture, but perhaps the hype got my hopes up a bit high.
I like, but not as much as everyone else seems to like. I think the texture is probably my favorite part of it.

Worthy of the hype? Dunno. I'm not the best person to judge. Overall, I'm pretty neutral on it.

This one here would be my favorite of all my mirror cards in my collection thus far. Jersey numbered in a big plus for me! :)

That's a big draw to me as so many cards nowadays just look too 'flat'. This is part of the reason why I think Flux is so cool, Panini really knocked it out of the park with the textures and color combos, as well as the overall theme being space-centric like much of the great 90s stuff but also feeling new at the same time.

Nice card! I am still looking to pick some of the inserts from these sets, I just haven't gotten around to it. What is that PG card numbered too?

Thanks, they're numbered to /25. It might be difficult to pick one up though, there's a set collector trying to pick up all of these. He has at least 4 PGs if I remember correctly.
