New Project: 1999 Skybox Molten Metal Xplosion Set

It's been awhile since I have started a new collection project on here.  I think I completed one with the 1998 Topps Tek set earlier this year, but also recall letting one go in the way of the 2001 Topps Archives set.  Time to try another and stick with it to the end.  I made a post last week about the 1999 Skybox Molten Metal set and really enjoyed looking at the cards.  I especially liked the Xplosion parallel set which is made up of metal cards.  Collectors received a few per box.

The set is a total of 150 cards.  Currently I have the following cards:

2. Canseco 4. Palmeiro 5. Renteria 10. O'Neill 17. Higginson 27. Schilling 38. Colon 43. Alou 45. Floyd 49. Alomar Jr. 54. Cirillo 56. Cruz Jr. 60. Milton 63. Thompson 64. Fullmer 65. Grissom 70. Hidalgo 74. Clement 75. Karros 76. Pavano 80. Martinez 83. Ventura 86. Olerud 89. McGriff 90. Boggs 92. Sheffield 101. Sheffield 106. Salmon 107. Belle 109. Lee 112. Rodriguez 118. Lofton 119. Barrett 127. Kida 128. Helton 131. Drew 132. Ripken 142. Jeter 148. Bagwell

If you're counting at home that's a total of 39 and I have a few more that I have tracked down and have en route.  Any help on the set would be much appreciated since I have 111 more cards to track down.
