When you shop for vintage trading cards, the first question is usually how you want to buy: a sealed lot of packs or one card you pick yourself. These two choices sit on opposite sides of that split. The 1992 Youngblood set arrives as a sealed pack lot, while the 1994 Ujena Swimwear Illustrated collection lets you choose your own card. Both are Comic Images products made in the United States, but the buying experience is very different. One is a bulk commitment; the other is a targeted pick.
Quick verdict: Go with the Youngblood sealed pack lot if you want a larger run of vintage cards in one purchase. Go with the Ujena card if you want a pick-one approach from the Ujena set. The split is simple: one product gives you a bundle of sealed packs, and the other gives you one card of your choosing.
| Metric | Youngblood Set | Ujena Card |

| What you get | 35 factory sealed packs | 1 chosen card |

| Set | Youngblood | Ujena Swimwear Illustrated, 1994 |
Keep in mind the purchase style: the Youngblood purchase is a pack opening session, while the Ujena purchase is a card-selection session. The Youngblood option wins for buyers who want a sealed, bulk purchase with a signature art style. The set comes as 35 packs, so it favors collectors who enjoy opening packs and seeing the vintage cards in quantity rather than choosing a single image. The Ujena option wins for buyers who want to target a specific card from a vintage non-sport set. Because the purchase is a card you select, you get to choose exactly which one you add, and it may show light wear. If your priority is the number of cards in one purchase, the Youngblood set is the straightforward choice; if your priority is card-level control, the Ujena option is the straightforward choice.
1992 Youngblood Trading Cards
If opening a stack of vintage packs sounds right, this set gives you a sealed run rather than a single card. The cards are factory sealed, standard-size, and printed in English on card stock, with Rob Liefeld art throughout the Youngblood franchise. You are buying the sealed pack experience as a lot, so the decision is about volume rather than picking an individual card. The trade-off is that you are committing to the whole bundle, and the cards are not autographed. If you only want one selected card or the smallest possible purchase, this bulk option may be more than you need.
1994 Ujena Swimwear Illustrated Trading Card - Choose Your Card
This is the pick-one route into a 1994 Comic Images set. You choose your own card from the Ujena Swimwear Illustrated franchise, including the customized option '72. Women's Work.' The card is ungraded, so some copies may show light wear, which is consistent with an ungraded vintage card. That makes it a direct way to add a specific card to your collection without taking on a whole pack lot. The limitation is that the purchase is for the card you pick, so it won't provide the multi-pack opening experience or the sealed-pack certainty of the Youngblood set. If you are completing a set or just want one particular image from the 1994 range, this keeps the decision tightly focused.
Final call: Spend USD 23.00 on the Youngblood set when you want sealed bulk. Spend USD 1.79 on the Ujena card when you want a pick-one approach from a vintage set. The main difference is sealed pack volume versus singular card control. There is no wrong answer, only a question of which buying style matches your collecting habit.
