Interesting OP put Black as #7. Nobody even mentioned it.

I am surprised those are not more popular. Really sharp cards.

1. Select

5. Immaculate

The ones I enjoy. Just based on "value" and my personal preference. My list is my list. Yes I know I may have included "clunkers" in terms of resale-value, but I'm first and foremost a collector, not an "investor".... Not everything needs to be relegated to how much my ROI can be.

Anyways

My top 5:

1. Prizm - THE rookie card to have
2. Optic - On Card Autos
3. Select - Amazing looking cards and great looking RPA's
4. Phoenix - Amazing Value. Went downhill after 2018 imho
5. Impeccable - My pick for high-end "premium" cards. Awesome looking cards. Design wise, I prefer it to NT, Flawless and Immaculate

The rest:

6. Limited - On Card Autographs, great RPA design
7. Illusions - Great checklist plus a nice variety of acetates and inserts
8. Gold Standard - Nice variety, great checklist

Worth a rip:

9. Playoff - Cheap, but fun.
10. Classics - 2018 Classics was Amazing. Only to be replaced by Legacy, which SUCKS

Because of the base/prizm/grading revolution.

These are the only Panini cards I like:

1. Panini Instant, including expanded playoff team sets
2. Prizm
3. Donruss
4. Contenders
5. Score

They have way too many sets of the same players over and over and over again.

Favorite insert set is Downtown.

I’ve purchased them two years in a row and done breaks with them. Black is going to have damage 10 out of 10 times. They still look great and it’s typically slight, but with the grading insanity in the hobby it doesn’t bode well.

The biggest problem is it is a thin black layer on white card stock so everything shows up. If Panini could use black card stock it would greatly help that line.
