Ninja Update: 1999-00 UD Black Diamond

1999-00 UD Black Diamond is a great example of what the brand used to be, a clean and simple product focused on base and inserts. While the potential for a big hit was there, the release catered perfectly to set collectors and smaller budget fans. While the tiered base system had not yet emerged, the set was still fun to collect. The inserts added a little flash to the packs, while the Piece of History relic cards served as a big hit chaser set.
