Yep, that and Flawless. I also expect to see them loaded with nice jumbo patches of players who are on new teams now.

Are these player-worned or game-used for the rookies? If it's player-worned, I'd rather have a non-game used rc auto.

This, 100%. Already gonna be rough with how late it is, but having box-hit guys like KD, AD and Kyrie on new teams is really not going to help resell.

I might be in the minority, but I actually don't like the acetate patch autos. They don't typically grade a lot better since the surface is usually trashed, and the ink never seems to turn out right.

The best thing about this release from a singles standpoint is the combo autos. That Dirk/Luka could end up being a really big card.

They will all be on The Buzz within minutes of being announced. There is no routine to their announcements for day or time.

I can only speak for myself, but I am not really big on grading. The acetate sets are always my personal faves. Although, I do like that they use it sparingly. If they start using it on multiple sets in Immaculate regularly I'm sure it will start to lose its appeal.

thought that Panini always released either Imac or Flawless right before the National or am I remembering this incorrectly?

To sell on their site, I always get an email about an hour before the release.

I enjoy this product but a few things:

1) Everypone who hates NT should say the same thing about this product. So many $1 cards, so many wack azz patches, so little change in design, so overpriced for the value.

2) The big hits in this (not monster hits) are the big patches and the RPAs, but they rarely retain their value which stinks.

3) It comes out at such a bad time bc Flawless is just plain better than this stuff so if you had to save your money for 1 of them, you would wait for Flawless.

The multi-autos and Logoman/shoe patches are what carry Immaculate. Flawless doesn't have that stuff in it. The RC Acetate Patch/Auto is alright but nothing compared to NT.

This is a big issue for me. I've always thought this should be a mid season (all star break) kind of product. It would do so much better just by moving the release date.

Until Panini can get their head out of the sands and put RC or rookie or anything on the RPAs, I don’t bother with Flawless. Immac tho...

At the end of the day, they are gonna sell FOTL in less than 5 minutes and they probably have allocated all the product already.

It makes sense to release this in the offseason instead of something like Absolute. Even with the season over, they'll have no problem moving it. Same with Flawless.

The logoman auto's look identical to last years...or am i wrong?

Think it's time for Panini to start doing dual logoman booklets again. They're giving these guy's less and less room to sign on them each year.

This is boom or bust like everything else but compare this at $425 to Opulence at $1,000.
