I have seen a box break of 2021 prizm where they pulled a fearless insert lamelo with the RC label, is this a misprint?

At least you can get an Auto in Basketball.

Football is terrible.

I enjoyed opening my blasters. Opened 2, got lucky and hit a Silver Jalen Green. Also hit a Barnes base, Jalen Green Base and Kuminga base.

Do megas usually release after blasters? I haven't seen anything other than blasters in Canada

Blasters are usually first, then most likely we’ll see cellos and then megas shortly after that. I’m sure within the next couple weeks we’ll see both of those releasing, along with hangers. I know for football there were different hangers from Walmart and Target. Basketball has only had hangers through Walmart in the past, but I’d like to see them release a Target version too. Not sure if they will or not.

Just checked Barnes & Noble by my office before picking up lunch. I bought the 2 they allowed and I think I did pretty well.

Luka Doncic 75th anniversary (blue), Franz sensational swatches, Sengun base RC, Aaron Wiggins ice RC, & Keon Johnson Instant Impact in the first box.

Luka Garza ice, Penny Hardaway silver, DeRozan purple wave, Davion Mitchell Emergent & Instant impact, Zaire & Franz base RCs in the second.

And for the PC, a couple Bradley Beals, a Jordan Poole, and a Joe Ingles Green prizm.

Judging by the eBay listings, it seems like the retail version of the 75th Logo insert is much easier to hit vs the hobby side.

Got a shipping notice from Target for 6/9 of my blasters today, excited to rip some Prizm BKB since Prizm FB was a huge disappointment.

I only look at KG prizm cards on ebay and must say that probably 90% of them aren't centered well left to right. There's always been some like that through the years but this year seems way worse.

Is this true for the rest of the product?

I only look at Giddey and a nice centered card is a myth i reckon!

If your patient you can definitely find one. Panini printed a billion base cards so there’s definitely a couple sheets that got chopped correctly.

Last year a centered Prizm LaMelo was impossible to find (base and silver). Its still tough to find centered copies and it took me awhile but I bought a beautiful copy this week for $25 and a silver that’s almost as flawless for $100

I'm not a fan of the 75th insert design, but the base 75th Blue looks awesome. I think retail (particularly blasters) should hold some decent value if this class takes off.

I love the look of the blue 75th anniversary cards (these should've been the ones in the hobby configurations and the reds should've been in retail, but I prefer blue over red).

Anyone have an idea on the blue 75th print-run?

As if that wasn't bad enough, I've bought about 10 low-end prizm golds on ebay so far (like $20-$50 so nobody would put them aside for grading) and roughly 7-8 of the 10 have multiple surface dimples. My guess is the product will have a gem rate of around 15-20% once the dust settles

Wow, awesome hit out of a blaster! Is this the Silver Prizm version? I’ve been seeing lots of the base version of these inserts coming out of blasters, but I thought the Silver version was hobby exclusive. But looks like you can get those from retail too, congrats!

Yuck.
Real flagship product and rubbish quality.

There’s gotta be a ton of those, I don’t think they’re that SP. I’ve been looking just at one of my PC players and I have a saved eBay search for all his 2021 Prizm parallels, and I’ve seen at least 5 copies of the Blue 75th parallel so far. Once Target ships their blasters, then we get cellos, megas, hangers, etc. there will be lots of these floating around as people continue to rip retail.

QC has been bad for Prizm for about 4-5 years now. I remember opening lots of 17-18 retail and many of the parallels came out the pack scratched or with glue residue. Just bad.
