Will be difficult to ascertain until it's released. Looks good. But if Panini floods the market with parallels and calls it "producing collectibility" as UD does then I'll be less than impressed. So I'll wait to see what the hockey release looks like.
I have a feeling that it's gonna be a rocky 2010-11 season in hockey with a lot of criticism before Panini is able to produce a full year's product line.

Not impress by the number of subsets (1 base set and 60 subsets), this beats 2008-09 UD artifacts with their 51 subsets. Let's wait for the release and we will have a better idea but never loved so many subsets. Those who like to do rainbow will probably like it better. I like theme like subsets better, less but more design and artistic work into the subsets.

Agreed. Certified football had 1) base 2) red parallel /249 3) blue parallel /100 4) gold parallel /25 5) emerald parallel /5 and 6) black parallel /1
They did not impress me, and I could see them doing away with at least the /249.
No set collector is going to make the parallel sets but players collectors enjoy. I thinking Panini aimed this set at set collectors (large auto parallel and large Fabric of the Game (FOTG) subsets) but the parallels essentially became worthless.

The rumor is that once exclusivity is officially over (july 1) we should start seeing panini sale sheets so we shouldnt have to wait to long to see how thay will apply this to hockey

certified is one of my fav products in football..lots of nice HOF jerseys and patches...all of panini's products are full of parallels so flooding the market is probably going to happen but that isnt necessarily a bad thing

Someone needs to tell them that multiple parallels are ssooo 1997.
I am not impressed.
I hope they don't get exclusive rights anytime soon.

I think that the first 2-3 products will come under heavy scrutiny and probably won't deliver what every collector desires, similar to their basketball product from this year.
However, once Panini acquires a stock of GU and auto's for hockey, look for the products to be much stronger.
Everyone should check out the hits from Timeless Treasures and Court Kings, I found them both appealing.
