Nice to see an edgier design from Panini. Sweet Wade patch as well!

[JKC]

Nice break and review! I especially like that Dwayne Wade patch card! Thanks, Panini, for providing this!

Very nice break! That Wade patch is sweet! 4 hits for $70-80 is pretty nice too. Thanks, Panini!

[bob9826]

wow that wade patch is crazy

[patriotsguy]

THanks Panini for the box!

I like the look of these cards. As one stated it is a little edgier and goes with the nice multi - color patches

[molly1984]

i think the design is a little busy, but nice pulls and i do like the clark logo card.

[RenegadeLonghorn]

Sweet Wade patch. I agree with Molly there's too much going on in the card. Need to simplify the look especially the base cards.

[PPPanthersGM]

Sweet box! Nice hit on the Wade!

[#50 Tyler Hansbrough]
