Looks like overpriced trash. Prizm is really the only good non-highend product anymore

No it's Upper Deck and they cut up bits of Ben Simmons date worn t-shirt with Kendall Jenner and called it a rookie card. $1500 a case, 1 in 1,000,000,000 pack odds.

They tried to get your guy Dajuan Wagner to sign for it but he was holding out for .50 cents per sheet of sticker autos. UD decided that was too expensive and decided to sue him instead.

I'm excited as well! Should be a fun day on Friday seeing all the cases ripped open and hopefully we hit something great in the group break!

My guy is doing just fine and he doesn't need Upper Deck's 50 cents...…..

Yes, hopefully some nice Towns cards finally appear on ebay. I'm so bored waiting for KATs, I've been buying baseball when I told myself at the beginning of the year not to

That's what I am waiting to see.

I'd love to get my hands on a couple of USA cards, but have a feeling they are going to go high.

People keep eating up all the overpriced junk Panini puts out so they keep raising prices.

It's hilarious to see everyone get all upset over the year after year prices increases and then turn around and just keep buying it and buying into breaks

Same. Whatever feelings I may have about Panini, it is completely impossible for me as a fan of basketball and a card collector to watch basketball and not want the cards of the stars of today. I don't know how else to put it. I love the sport and the hobby way more than any business decision Panini has made bothers me I guess.

Sorry, but, aside from most of the horrible looking designs, no Jordan, LBJ, or Simmons cards = #BOREFESTIVAL - basketball really blows in this aspect, breaking up the players for how long now? Just stupidity

Optic looks decent just doesn't hold it's value like Prizm does.

I feel the same way as most have said already, looking like I'll stay away from this product as well. Looks like a another GS design for sure.

For high end, I'm sticking to just NT, Flawless, and Immac.

People are saying its Gold Standard just because of the color, but I'm hoping in reality its a lot more limited and better on card autos of star players to make it worth this price. I'm kinda tired of mainly white cards being high end so looking forward to this product.

This is the most worrisome aspect of bball. It is fundamental to this hobby we enjoy, that more than 3 players are liked and collected. Luckily Kobe signs for Panini, but as for the 3 you mentioned (Ben chose UD btw), just because they are not signing for Panini should not correlate directly to boring cards.

The other 3 sports are better in that respect. People collect regional favorites and/or semistars (doesn't constantly drool over the top 3 players). This forum shows to a certain extent, if you don't enjoy MJ, LBJ, or Kobe (even Ben) you are left out. They are all great players no doubt, but if people don't care or collect the current guys, the hobby suffers.
