An old pic of Iverson getting drafted. Not sure if this is an April Fool's joke for a new release focused on photography.

KhalDrogo · 05-17-2022, 10:50 AM

More garbage. A card with a picture of Vince Carter holding a picture of Vince Carter. Brilliant stuff.

msink28 · 05-17-2022, 10:55 AM

I like the design, but I'm sure it will end up being like $600/box or something and will release after the 2022-23 season as started.

zworykin · 05-17-2022, 11:06 AM

Yeah, that'll be a pass. Thanks.

beavers · 05-17-2022, 11:09 AM

The Shai and Lamelo are sweet.

SlickRick · 05-17-2022, 11:13 AM

Funny, panini is basically saying, "yea, our card photos suck, so here's one set that has good photos"

Those rookie shots could hold up though, reminds me of the base Topps lebron RC. And some timeless moments like photos

Should’ve offered on card autographs on some of these, because some of the photos are actually really nice and unique. Reminds me of early UpperDeck candid stuff.

Bosoxfan5990 · 05-17-2022, 11:17 AM

A set no one asked for!

Lone Wulf · 05-17-2022, 11:25 AM

To me it seems more like a set full of "greatest hits" focusing on the basketball moments rather than lazy design. I guess I could be in the minority based on the comments so far, but this looks appealing to me at least, the theme is unique and has a lot of nostalgia in it. I haven't thought about collecting a full set from a Panini release since coming back to the hobby but this preview piqued my interest for doing something like that. Have to see the full checklist and what the price is on it though.

yiguiri2002 · 05-17-2022, 11:29 AM

Nice photos, not a lot of parallels and throwback inserts? I'm in.

But there's always a fear of them messing it up because of the timing, the price and the overproduction.

mwsportsart · 05-17-2022, 12:24 PM

I want the Steph and Lamello card. Would probably pick up singles of others when I see the photography of the full set.

ShaqMagic · 05-17-2022, 12:28 PM

Looks like something that would be nice as an insert set, rather than as its own product.

KOs Cardroom · 05-17-2022, 12:52 PM

looks like ass, will sell like ass. panini just going all in with the junk wax before they lose the licenses

rifleman69 · 05-17-2022, 12:54 PM

This reminds me of the Pro-Line NFL set that Proset came out with. Players in "street clothes".

JanuaryRains · 05-17-2022, 01:31 PM

I like the cards but complete standalone set seems like overkill, just another $ grab. Auto looks like it'll be stickers given the white space on the KAT/Edwards card. I think it's a cool set though, nice photography is always appreciated.

This isnt the Finest Basketball thread.

TBarn291 · 05-17-2022, 02:36 PM

The dual auto set looks pretty cool. I am anxious to see that checklist.

I would never buy a box of it because it looks like mostly junk, but some of the cards look very nice.

Panini's inspiration:

Lee42 · 05-17-2022, 05:07 PM

So its basically Stadium Club x Panini Studio with Upper Deck Die Cut All Stars with shoes on them as an insert?

CicadaMound · 05-17-2022, 05:24 PM

I'm a big fan of Stadium Club so I like the idea. If we're collecting cardboard pictures of men the pictures ought to at least look nice.

regularp · 05-17-2022, 05:56 PM

These are the photos Prizm should be using since it's essentially their flagship release.

BackToWax · 05-17-2022, 07:18 PM

Are the autos on-card? If so, might be an interesting release.

Just wait until the sticker dump products start coming out at the end!
