That is just the base parallels too..... add in the
numerous inserts and their parallels and its ridiculous.
I thought it was hard to be a set builder.... but I get a chuckle when serious rainbow collectors cant even figure out all the stupid parallels.
I hope ppl know that Panini and the other card companies studied what attracted gamblers to gamble more... the flash, noises etc... the sensory cues that get in to our psyche.... and they adapted it to cards.
So, instead of working on more autos / relics... they got lazy and decided to go with just flashy bedazzled cardboard with silly names.... with manufactured scarcity and a twist of paid influencer hype and the mob ate it up. Future generations will look back on these releases and laugh that got collectors were so easily fooled.
Are there good Panini cards? Yes... some nice rookies, but need to be focused and drown out the stupid noise.
