So what is this going to be - just retired players and prospects?

Yikes.

So no players who are members of the pa?

I don't want to be intrigued by this, but an addiction is an addiction.

I guess Panini is going full Leaf mode here.

I was wondering if they’d go this route.

Glad Prizm draft and elite will still be made!

I can see people buying Donruss and optic in this format, but that’s about it. I guess flawless and NT can still work.

So Elite Extra Edition plus HOFs? Odd mix.

Lol no current players. Why even do it.

23 Donruss design looks crap, football and basketball will be horrible.

Rated Prospect? So lame.

Yeah. Rated Prospects have been in the product for a while but the fact that there is no Rated Rookies kills me. Going back to the 80s RR was always one of my favorite things to collect. And they increased the price on this to $90. Seems like maybe cheap HOF auto chases depending on the full checklist

Panini can't even QC their previews

That might be the ugliest card I've ever seen. Who wants this s***?

Right? I'd be happy to open 91 donruss over this garbage any day

Oh there will be plenty of people unfortunately. Its taken me a while but Ive learned that most people don't have any taste.

This looks like crap.

I ripped a TON of 2017 and 2018. Probably a case in total for each year. For the price, it was a fun rip. 2018 ruled because of the bonus wrapper redemption program. Then they stopped the wrapper redemption and slowly, the product started to suck. I purchased a box of 2020 just for the fun of it and pulled an Ohtani autograph.

Haven't touched this stuff since.

Co-signed. Donruss without Rated Rookies is pointless.

WTF?

I mean the past years haven't been horrible. What did they do?

I like Rated Prospects but no Rated Rookies?

Just stop.

[QUOTE=yodastories;18767955]Who wants this s***?[/QUOTE]

Well put.

Seriously though. Who would this appeal to? Not children. Not adults. Not anyone!

With no mlbpa to tell panini what to do what is stopping panini from calling all of these prospects rated rookies?

If they take NT back toward being more about retired players, Hall of Famers, etc. that would be great. The last couple of years NT was just more "here's this year's rookies", which kind of defeats the purpose. Some middle reliever who pitched 2 innings is not a "national treasure".

Make it a true retired player product, focus on the old relics and autos, and I'm in.

Imagine Jordan Walkers hype if he was a Yankee?!
