For those that pre-ordered at Dick's, got an email saying format has changed 1 auto in every 2 boxes as opposed to 1 per box.

The auto will end up being a scrub player or a redemption that you never get.

My money is on a points card in every 2nd box. Keep those degens/clecters itching for an auto to maybe pop up every 6th/8th box

Did they give you the option to cancel or get your money back?

oldgoldy97 · 10-17-2023, 04:34 PM

Yes, you could get your money back.

blackbears86 · 10-17-2023, 04:56 PM

I'm out for this year. The odds keep getting worse for the same price which is too bad as this used to be a blast to open.

Good luck to those busting!

So they couldn't find room for Darren Waller in a 10-card NY Giants base set. I'm going to say they weren't trying hard enough.

Any word yet on whether rookies are in pro unis?

detroitbball · 11-01-2023, 02:56 PM

Panini has a few samples posted, and of those, they are in college unis

topher2354 · 11-03-2023, 01:19 PM

Glad I decided not to order any boxes. Looks like this will be just cheap junk to open for fun with your kids or for kids to open.

glassofwater · 11-03-2023, 08:44 PM

that auto checklist is pure caca...

Megabox use to be target exclusive. an you use to get plenty #cards.. prestige use to be favorite rip of the year..i had streak of pulling a 1/1 every year.. its dead...

My goodness, can we expect a 500-card Donruss set?

400 wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't going to likely lead to the same retired legends from every other product.

Hopefully that $10 extra a box don't run people away.

This is my problem with Panini too. Same legends in every single product. I'd rather have a current o-linemen than another John Elway card. I get it, John Elway will always be more marketable than half the current team, but I'd rather see a Mike McGlinchey card in a Broncos uniform over yet another John Elway card.

oldgoldy97 · 11-04-2023, 08:23 AM

Yeah, retired players are greatly overused in a lot of Panini releases. It’s a little sickening.

100%.

If it's gotta be retired legends, let's see a Tom Nalen or maybe Gary Zimmerman or Al Wilson. Heck, a dual Clinton Portis/Champ Bailey on the teams that drafted them with a "famous pairings" tag. Something that's not one of the usual suspects. They'll get their due in other sets, they always do.

gorillaz · 11-05-2023, 04:49 PM

how does Jamar Taylor have a card in this set, let alone his Dolphins gear? He was terrible his entire NFL career.

You mean how it's intended?

The horror lol

Think some of you forget the intent of retail in between searching for the easiest boxes to flip or the cheapest boxes with the highest chance of returns.

whoshotjr · 11-08-2023, 09:48 AM

Opened 3 boxes. Definitely not the 2019/20 versions with low # flying out. Lowest was a /50, best was probably a Herbert heroes /99.

The parallels are much nicer looking than past years. I know in 2020 I hit a 1/1 and it looked like a base. I would say that names are kind of hard to read though.

If they had at least some rookies in NFL uniforms it would have been a pretty good product for color match parallels.

Might be a worthless set but the base design is gorgeous and I like the look of Heroes as well.
