I have 4 pending Shaq redemptions from Panini (including a Prizm Gold) and I'm afraid I'll never get them. All recent releases have removed Shaq from the auto's in the checklist - so I feel like something has changed with perhaps whatever agreements they have. The last set of auto redemptions that shipped out from Panini of Shaq have an even quicker, no jersey # included auto, similar to what he's done with Leaf:
There's been one absolute standout card of recent releases that Shaq collectors have gone crazy for and that was the Notable Nicknames from National Treasures that was part of the last batch of redemptions - note the same short hand shaq auto missing the jersey # but he varied up the written nickname which is cool.
With Panini in a downward spiral I feel like I have slim chances of Shaq doing anything further for them but who knows...
