I hope they aren't all signed in crappy black pens. Actually, I'll never own one so what do I care?




EDITED TO ADD: Looks like they are all signed in crappy black pens. I guess I still have no reason to care.

I actually like the on card autos, but probably hard to pull a good one and we are still here with no uni, no license, etc.

I hate black ink as well. Blue always looks better. Don't know why they had to change something that worked.

I happen to like the black ink, not to mention the clean simple design and the rated rookie autos. This might be the only football product I purchase in 2016-17.

Love the throwback donruss rated rookies designs. Can't decide if I like the black ink cuz it's different... Definitely appears just like a facsimile auto in scans...

I think the black ink is supposed to be a counterbalance to the black of the Optic logo.

I really like the design. Too bad MLB gave Topps the exclusive usage of team logos.

Really like the looks of this set. I think Panini did a good job with it.

LOVE this product, hit my first super from it as well as a Seager Refractor auto and some great names on my color refractors (Trout, Correa, Schwarber, Harper) can't wait to throw some more PayPal at it.

why didn't they just call it Owman Steel. It's as close to a knock off of Bowman Chrome as you can get without using the actual Bowman Chrome decals.

If this was licensed it would be a nice set, but I will never get unlincensed stuff en masse. I have a few cards for my PC guy that I picked up over the years, and even most of that I've dumped because, well, I just don't like it. It's the same as someone taking a photo of a player in street clothes and putting it on a card: "Joe Schmo, Man About Town".

Sorry, just my feelings about it.

It's a fair point and to be sure, most of us aren't as enthused about unlicensed cards. But Panini does a nice job here and there with National Treasures and these cards at least look better than most of it.
