I hate seeing this. These companies pretty much have disposable income compared to collectors and rip up such rare and hard to find items.

I think that the base piece with the figurine of Trout and a base is a pretty neat idea. If I collected him, I'd buy this in a heartbeat. It's not like a super-rare jersey's being cut up or anything, so it's not depleting the supply. Of course, I'd be saddened if they were cutting up a Mantle bat, but there are tons of bases out there. I just hope that this company sticks to modern stuff and doesn't go too far.

I guess McFarlane is going the jersey route as well. But considering how many Felix jerseys are on the market, I have no problem with one's being cut up.

Thanks for clarifying this. While I like McFarlanes, I've never been a huge collector of those...

Very interesting idea. I'll pick a few of these up for the collection ;-)
