Does anyone know when Optic is due to be released this spring? TIA.

Prob looking at late summer based upon last years release date and this years continued delay of new products

I am not sure I care this year.

The 2024 prizm, mosaic, etc football sets overprinting was bad... and it'll get worse for the last Panini NFL sets. :(

The only reason I'm happy optic and select are coming out is that they *might* get earlier 2024 set redemptionsdone. We shall see.

Optic is my favorite Panini cards. Hope these are nice

Optic is my favorite Panini cards. Hope these are niceThey always are. Optic grades well except a few years with a lot of off-center cuts.
Inserts are great... but far too many types of them in Optic imo. I do like My House... Downtowns way better than regular Donruss, Light It Up, Mythical was cool.

I like Select myself (also too many inserts) and Panini Black (although it grades terrible). For Panini, they make a lot of junk, but the clear top mainstream NFL ones are silver sets (prizm, optic, select... maybe mosaic).

The main problem with Optic in most recent years is that it's very highly printed. Pop counts on Optic are pretty insane, and there is still a lot of wax untapped. I can't imagine Panini's last year of it will be any better.

At least some of the primo sets like Black or Obsidian are numbered and limited (although they still use parallels to overprint somewhat).
