2023 Bowman Draft Baseball Forum

Hello all. I was going to work on submitting the checklist for this year's Bowman Draft issue, which looks to be able to be completed now with the full 200 card checklist available online and the set's image variations listed. I wanted to request some feedback on the RetroFractors that are listed for the set though. They are numbered as if to be at the end of the base set. Should these be listed as part of the main set or should they be listed as inserts in spite of their numbering scheme? Would love to get some feedback on how to proceed and, if needed, to wait on submitting. Thanks in advance all.

Actually, looking at the checklist, the variations and retrofractors are chrome but not base.

First and foremost, just because the checklist is available online does not mean it is correct. Checklists should not be uploaded, especially for base sets, until product is released. Many times over, someone has published a checklist when the window was open before release to get those precious points. Many time over, they ended up posting wrong checklists because what was posted was not what was printed on the card. While this isn't a Panini product it may be a little safer, but the reasoning holds.

To answer the question, they should only go with their associated sets so if it only applies to the inserts that's where they go.

Gotcha. I'll hold off.
