Sorry about the Beasley scan, too lazy to care.

So, yes the hits are nice for everything. But you get my point about quality control and redemptions right?

Thanks guys, I will try to work the scanner soon.

ALL ARE FT!!! except those that say (PC)

Thanks

Crazy, that sounds awful redemption heavy after no redemptions so far from Panini for bball.

All the 'patch autos' you mention...are those 'patch' autos or 'jersey' autos? (If patch autos that's sure a lot of patches).

Sounds like the Kobe was your case hit.

[kornbreadchild]

i will update later with pics and such, maybe we got the ugly duckling of Rookies and Stars. but yes, do expect redemptions in Rookies and Stars

[kornbreadchild]

TTT: Added Update

[kornbreadchild]

added pics

[rocketfan86]

interested in the budinger auto...lmk...thanks

[Jaded]

nice break imo

[wrafman]

Too bad about the damaged cards and redemptions - sounds like UD and Topps all over again. I know Panini asked for opinions and advice from collectors on another site but it does not seem they are following it very well.

Nice break though generally except for the collation (6 Austin Daye auto's ?!!)

[Abenaki Blood]

Robert Parrish!!! Please PM for what you want for this card!

[mburrows21]

You know I'm somewhat dissapointed becuase I've been looking forward to this for quite some time. However, one thing to keep in mind is a lot of us collectors are expected to be blown away with Panini since it's their first year making Basketball.
Keep in mind it's $70 a box and you're getting what you pay for just like Prestige. I'm sure some of us will get sick boxes and some will get crap boxes. It's like that with any $70 product. I'm sure Elite will be nice as well as the Threads.
I'm still looking forward to breaking a box or 2 of this what about you guys?
