For the discerning collector with so much excess wealth that they no longer care how gaudy cards look.

Maybe Panini needs to refinance Barkleys exclusive deal very quickly

Gotta say, the base cards are quite stunning.

[chris_ac]

The base are the actions shots clectors been clamoring for. Would love the Platinum 1/1 base.

Who's watching breaks... this stuff is... yikes.

Panini somehow found a photo of Barkley dribbling.

*no more gif's today...i promise.

So it looks like one book per case. Yeah based on the price, I really don’t see the value per box when your “hit” is a Bird or a Kobe auto.

There isn't a book in every case. There isn't even an RPA in every case.

I just saw a break..tatum booklet to 25 pulled..lonzo rookie auto but yeah...yikes...autos of Patrick Patterson Jeremi Grant etc...really the Tatum was the only big money pull of the break..way overpriced product

[COMCMax]

Maybe should have held onto this product for this season. Maybe a earlier highend release (Lebron Laker patches and new rookie crop). Just feels like I've gone through the buffet line 6x now.

Celtics fan and Cleveland fan gonna be like...hrmmm

[jubei777]

Yeah I saw a case break where Box 1 hit was a Bird auto, Box 2 hit was a Kobe auto, and Box 3 hit was a Kuzma RPA. On a breaker level, I can see this as viable but not if you're doing single boxes. Way too high of a gamble.

Next up, Impeccable! lol

I forgot about Impeccable. Panini needs to look down the road a bit. Upper Deck did their share of pumping out products ,but nothing like this. Panini has turned boxes into mini cases.

Only one priced like a high-end product was Exquisite compared to today.

Exquisite
UD Black
Ultimate
SPA
SPx
SPGU
SP Signature
Glass
Finite
Hardcourt
Sweet Shot
Triple Dimensions

To be fair. Upper Deck is pumping out products like this now with hockey. They're well over 20 products and still going too. We like to put the blame on Panini or Topps or UD. But the reality is the leagues are mandating the number of products being put out.

Yea, I don't follow Hockey.

I assume they have to these days with basketball license yanked. Probably would anyways. Times have just changed I suppose.

Shaq's got a Team USA jersey with 13 in sig. Pretty cool. The gold chips are sorta been played out.

[brettmik59]

I'm staying away from all the high-end stuff for a couple reasons. First, it's all player worn. Second, there are a million different RPAs and variations to choose from. I'm happy over on the shallow end with Prizm, Optic and Revolution.

[eeidlitz]

There are some decent cases to be had. Idk if I just got lucky or if the sample size is too small to tell yet, but as an example, my case had a shaq team USA auto, Malik monk rookie gold auto /10, Wes iwundu rpa /79, josh Jackson rpa /79, Kyle Kuzma rpa logo /79, and d Mitchell rpa logo /10. Some other hits, but those were relatively small. Just saying that as the sample size of cases grows throughout the weekend, I’m hoping more cases fall like this rather than like the dogs u guys had mentioned seeing opened!

[eeidlitz]

I take it back!!!!! Opened another case and best card literally was a kyrie patch auto /25!! Jonathan Isaac was best rookie. Absolute garbage! Was left literally speechless, what do u say when u open such a hyped and expensive product and get maybe 500 worth back!? I know it’s a gamble, been doing this a Long time, but this is epic garbage IF most cases look like this. Maybe I lucked out on the first case lol. Cancelled my order for 3 more cases. Hope I’m wrong and that was just a very bad case but I can’t chance 3k plus on that. If this is what most cases look like then panini really dropped the ball on this one. Hope I’m wrong...

straight trash.

[KidKards101]

One of the octo rookie auto books pulled at firehand, but it's a redemption. I believe its /10. Not sure why it wouldnt be a 1/1. Probably the only card I like in the product.

[nera20]

i bought one box for 750 and i even kinda want to cancel even at that price seeing what i have seen thus far
