I really hope the major sports leagues move away from exclusive licenses again. Exclusivity seems to cause so many more issues/drawbacks - especially with quality control and customer service, not to mention Topps' overzealous baseball production as their MLB license nears its term.

I can't speak for how Panini is, since I don't collect basketball or football, but the competition would likely improve the hobby overall.

I recieved Week 1.


Wow. Hot garbage. Really Tiny stickers on sticker stock. Think old panini albums from the early 80s

I was hoping for a card sized Sticker on a better stock.

Default Regarding the photo on Zdeno Chara's sticker....

...so the tagline on the sticker is "6th Defender in NHL to play in 1500 games" and has a date of "11-4-19" on top. He actually played his 1500th game on Tuesday, November 5. At Bell Centre. In Montreal. The picture on the sticker shows a Penguins player in the background. The Bruins played the Pens Monday night in Boston.

Would be cool if they did a sticker for the Blues for the 3-on-0 winning goal in OT.

This week's, and the previous week's choices, was enough to push me out. I'm done with it.

I'm done with them now.

I got suckered in Week 1 with my Blues banner raising then figured to go all year.

But now that I have the first week in hand, I'm disappointed in the whole thing.

I’m not thrilled with it either but what should we expect with the prices? I mean it’s 9 stickers shipped for $7.49. There are worse things in the world. I’ll probably keep buying just because but it’s hard to envision buying multiples to flip. I do want to see one of these albums completed.

I agree...sure I'm disappointed in the product, but I'm kicking myself for expecting more, that's my bad.

And, the product is very weak. No more for me.
Same here, checked my tracking, should have week 1 sometime next week. Shipping on my Living Set Star Wars cards has been really sporadic too. Not sure I'll be keeping this up, although I kind of want a full set of stickers. We'll see.

Anyone know the odds, etc. on the golds? A seller on ebay has a Kakko gold listed as a potential 1/1, but I doubt that is correct.

UPDATE: Well, seller that listed Kakko as a potential 1/1 either reads this board or had a change of heart and changed the title. No longer listed that way.


Gold version? Say what?

Did the Gold sticker arrive in separate packaging?

Oh wow. There’s 2 of those gold ones listed. I didn’t open my packs because I didn’t realize I needed to.

Ugh, I want a gold Kakko and I have 19 sealed envelopes with the album + stickers from week 1 sitting here, but I also don't want to open the envelopes since it's easy to ship as is. Decisions. I do have a gold 13G Ovechkin from week 2 turns out though.
