Looking forward to a checklist, hopefully soon. I like the look of the cards, a different design! The game play aspect doesn't appeal to me, but that doesn't matter one bit. What does is: Is Chris Douglas-Roberts in the set?! :-)

Looks kinda little-kid-ish but def a smart marketing strategy....try to get those little kids to stop buying stuff like pokemon and try something else...my little cuz will def be getting a few packs of these from his big cuz

i won't buy any, i only hope that horford is in the set and that i can get his base and inserts from the set. but even though i won't buy any or really care about the set at all, it is a great strategy. i think kids will enjoy it and it is something different.

Speaking of an online checklist of Adrenalyn XL, I wonder where it will be made available online? I can't see it being located with Prestige, Threads, Contenders, etc. at http://www.paniniamerica.net/checklists.cfm.

I don't know. Good idea in theory, especially the interactive part but I am somewhat skeptical. From what I have seen kids want what they see. When they see older siblings or adults buying more expensive cards they want those ones, whether they or their parents can afford them or not.

And I'm sure his "big-cuz" will be pulling the Bulls card from him

I'm guessing the checklist will be posted at some point on it's own official website: http://nba.paniniadrenalyn.com/us/about

I don't think the checklist is up yet though, or at least I didn't find it.

This exact "Adrenalyn XL" moniker and TCG format has already been used (overused if you ask me) for various European sawker sets. Interesting to see what kind of reception this gets from the kids here in the States...
