Since I'm working on them right now, I might as well take a pic.
Left to Right by row:
1997-2000 BP Jersey: going to strip and replace with the real kit, leaning towards Alex Rodriguez (had the same jersey but was too small)
1995-96 Turn Back The Clock Authentic: going to add a 75th Ann. Negro Leagues Patch for the 1995 season.
2001-02 Alternate: blank, going to make it into an ICHIRO probably with 2001 patches for his MVP/Rookie year.
1996-99 Home: wrong numbers (too skinny), going to make it in to a 1997 Griffey with that years patches. Griffey's MVP season
1997-2000 Sleeveless Alternate
1993-95 Home: blank, going to make it into an Edgar Martinez jersey with 75th Ann. Negro Leagues Patch for the 1995 season.
1992 Home: no name plate and wrong numbers, was thinking of making it a Buhner jersey.
2000 Reds Sleeveless Alternate
1989 Mitchell & Ness
1993-95 Road: need to add the 75th Ann. Negro Leagues Patch for the 1995 season.

I just went broke on a 1999 Mariners "Astro Blue" alternate that will be another Griffey jersey.

Left to Right by row:
OG, 7/10 sz 12. Still wearable but ever since I got the Retros these have been in the closet. Griffey MCS box (I'm not the original owner)
OG, deadstock sz 12. No cracking no nothing. Haven't found a great way to store them so the straps don't get in the way, but whatever. OG box, but a little beat. (bought from a collector in Germany)
OG, deadstock sz 1Y
OG, used sz 1C
OG, deadstock sz 2C
"Griffey III" (on the label) gloves. A little too long in the fingers, but couldn't pass on them.

I gave away my most beat pair of original 1's in a deal. So I had 3 (plus 2 freshwater retros) at one point. Seriously been thinking of selling my collection to get a full size run hahaha.

 A proper Jr collection right there.
I'd still like to find a pair of AGM1 MCS cleats for collecting... 
 
That's the first top-down view of those I think... and it's still wrong in so many ways...

I really wish I liked this shoe, but I just don't.  

thats what im saying..i want to like this shoe for obv reasons..and i thought the emerald colorway of the air max jrs looked pretty nice but now that i see an actual pic of the shoes i cant say i like them..i think the embroidered swoosh ruins them but who knows maybe they will look good in person?? (what im hoping)
and also it also looks like they put in a few features of the griffey 2s...in the reflection you can see a swingman on the back and also the tounge has that strip down the middle where the laces go through
 
I gotta see how the JR's look like with jeans/sweats. I think that could (maybe/possibly) change some minds. Even then, I would only stick to "Griffey" colors. Neon/Grey should only be left for 95's.
 
does anyone know a release date or even an idea like spring or summer release for the air max JRs?

i know some are releasing in fall but im not sure if some colorways may release sooner
 
I promised pics of these a month ago, They finally arrived today and they are Beautiful in person, they are sz 11 game issued from Mothers Day '08. I believe these were Griffeys as sz 11 is his size, if so, they are my first Griffey PE and im Hella Stoked about it!

I really need someone to point me in the direction of where I can get my hands on some of those full length air Swingman turfs or any turfs for that matter.

If I can get some PE's even better.
