Okay, I did the math. It's worth it, just barely, given the on-card Wembanyama autos in play. Panini continues to hold fast to its traditional commitment to providing break-even value in product.

Good lord!

A manufactured bill russell patch in flawless?

Panini must really think those break participants are idiots who will buy anything.

All for $17k.

Jeez.

This is the most masterful trolling of all time. It’s truly beautiful

Love that they're getting Flawless out early this year, so we can pull those Wemby and Brandon Miller autos

If anyone is on YouTube long enough I figure they get offered something from the manufacturers.

If you actually buy this, you seriously need to find some help. Call the gambling hotline or see a psychiatrist.

The only people buying this are group breakers or gambling addicts.

the fact it is almost the end of the 2023/2024 season and they're still releasing 2022/2023 products is just insane.

I don't think Nomad is being sarcastic (he doesn't do sarcasm), that is why I asked lol.

Jeez.
It isn't a manufactured patch, it is a patch the Celtics wore on their jerseys after Russell passed.

So who is the idiot?

Are you sure?

The sell sheet makes it sound like it's a bill russell patch in EVERY SINGLE FOTL BOX.

Those patches can be bought on line for $15 each.

If they make 300 FOTL boxes (200 card base set with bronze parallels numbered to 3 each, with two per box) and one bill russell patch per box, that's about 3 commemorative patches used for each of the 100 active players in the base set. Plausible, I suppose, but with a manufactured patch the product would still sell to the breakers. Not sure that Russel patch EVEN IF GAME USED is worth the extra $4500 they are charging this year.

300 FOTL boxes last year. Those Russell patches are going to be some obscure player used material at best.
