2009 Press Pass KISS 360 trading cards aim to look at the band from all angles. Overall, the checklist isn’t huge but there’s still a lot going on, especially when you get into the set’s handful of challenging exclusives.
2009 Press Pass KISS 360 Checklist Details
A big reason for the “360” theme is found in the base set. Consisting of 90 cards, it’s broken down into eight different subsets. Individually, the themes are tight and specific. Combined, it covers a lot of different angles, taking the rock band from their early albums through to the time around when the set came out. This includes a section dedicated to the group performing without their makeup, something seldom seen on trading cards despite several KISS products over the years.
One of the most revealing aspects of 2009 Press Pass KISS 360 is the card backs. The write-ups are insights direct from the band, offering a fresh, insider’s perspective.
Parallels come in six levels, although collectors may have to do some hunting to find some of them. Blood Spitting are the most common, falling 1:4 packs. Images on these are done in black and white with an added layer of red dripping down the top. $ and Walmart-exclusive Dr. Love versions are both numbered to 50 while Target-only Kissed parallels have just 25. Every card also has a one-of-one Printing Plate in black, cyan, magenta and yellow.
Blue parallels are also on the common side, however these are not in packs. Rather, they’re the base cards found in the Komplete KISS factory set that has both KISS 360 and KISS Ikons.
Autographs and Other Inserts
The most coveted cards in 2009 Press Pass KISS 360 are found in KISS Signatures. Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Peter Criss and Ace Frehley each have individual cards numbered to 99. There’s also a scarce version with cut signatures from all found band members.
Rock Star Relics have memorabilia used by the band. This includes a mix of clothing and one of Eric Carr’s drumheads. Silver and Platinum parallels include serial numbers.
Transformation uses lenticular technology to show the band with and without their signature make-up. Landing 1:12 packs, these are approximately two per box.
Photography is the focus of Snapshots (1:6 packs), which are designed to resemble film slides.
