Scalpers Busted on my newest video !! LAMELO BALL BACK2bavk HOLO Autograph! 🔥🔥🔥

[@campbellgelineau5466]

Solid, but cant believe someone would spend $575 on it

[@Smoothy9]

My box arrives friday, Dutch auction got it for 460 1st off the line. Got it off of panini website luckily

[@DaveDangles]

I think the set looks great for regular 55p card stock. Guys like @Maxcloud think everything should have monster hits in it.

[@DaveDangles]

@@campbellgelineau5466 until they pull a 1/1 Ant or Lamelo :D

[@grahamcochran5400]

Definetly a set that should have just stayed in Chronicles... Especially with all the delays this year.

[@ItsMazar]

Panini definitely put those 4-5 rookies you always get together in every box, I’ve noticed if you see one of those guys just don’t expect to see a LaMelo or Edwards. It’s getting ridiculous at this point.

[@tylersmith6824]

So a print run lol

[@ItsMazar]

@@tylersmith6824 wdym

[@sofaninja0552]

"Peyton Pritchard is all right but the Gerald Henderson clearly carries the box" 😂

[@dennislopez1272]

The Packman Rainbow again minus Oturo. For some reason when you said finally Gerald Henderson I thought of the Rock. "Finally... Gerald Henderson has come back to New Jersey". I know terrible joke. 😂

[@PackmanCards]

😂

[@stevenwashington917]

Lamelo Ball Select Rookie Selections Insert cards are blowing up in value!!! Especially the Blue & Gold Shimmer, Silver & Red Flash versions

[@michaelungar6660]

Gerald Henderson carried the box like a baby in the cradle of a cradle dunk LETS GOOOOOOOO 6:19

[@DLUXTHACHAMP]

Last time I heard of Gerald Henderson was when I watched him play against Charlotte. He was a part of the 76ers. First NBA game I went to.

[@yolosolonorthwest6282]

Premium feel. I love the thickness of the card. I just wish a little better graphic design.

[@jyhluk]

printer goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[@SageTheCollector]

I’m digging the inserts, but the base cards just look like a slightly fancier version of Illusions. Thanks for ripping a box. 👍🏻

[@PackmanCards]

Thanks for watching!

[@stevenperine6190]

Absolutely love this set, maybe the best base card design of the year.

[@nickswf]

I do like cards for aesthetics - it's pretty solid. They should hire the same designers to do their other products.

[@victoralexander9399]

Really love the autograph Payton Pritchard !!

[@PackmanCards]

Thanks!

[@joelcabantog4821]

Your reaction gave me a good laugh when you pulled the gerald henderson auto 😅

[@PackmanCards]

😂

[@oscargodinez1391]

The Ja Morant is nice but you right i hate the color purple.

[@caleblee1588]

That nnaji is jersey numbered

[@alvinsenoran7684]

The cards look nice... Plus purple is also my fav color... Hehehe... Hopefully there will be more hits if they will release retail boxes...

[@Sgeeeeeee]

Lol that Zeke Najji is jersey number

[@fredbrooks7756]

i liked the look of chronicles recon and was hoping for that design

[@thenewafterlife2472]

My brother just cracked a case and got 6 Anthony Edwards (1 auto gold 1/10 and Purple /49 and Rookie Red) 5 Lamelo Ball Ja and Luka /25

[@PackmanCards]

🔥😳

[@justincade6646]

I like the purple theme.. Looks pretty solid set.. I might grab a couple boxes and see what I can find..😀

[@PackmanCards]

GL if you get some!

[@ajzmail]

These cards definitely have an Eighties/Miami Vice vibe to them.

[@craigthomson5587]

I actually like this product...great colors but the Gerald Henderson pull was rough...

[@Clipsntricks380]

Zeek was a jersey number not a bad pull

[@jordanfalconer7853]

As a Sad Sad Kings fan, I love all the purple. The incerts are pretty sick as well.

[@PackmanCards]

😂

[@rageonion6166]

Im pretty sure that on the future legends card it shows the swingman logo!

[@eliasyoussef5092]

That zeke was jersey numbered

[@henrywise2746]

That Kawhi card 🔥

[@PSU4ever11]

I think the cards look nice, like an upscale Status

[@PattersonPacks]

I also think this one was unnecessary but I don't dislike it. The price point is nice which is rare these days. This falls on the lower end of the middle for me.

[@charlesnermal6132]

That nnaji is an ebay 1/1! Jersey numbahhh

[@PackmanCards]

🔥🔥

[@scottbartels8976]

Love that Lamelo in the background dude! Just got the same card too but the Chinese New Year one, revolution underrated imo

[@cardhubph]

Cool looking cards. 👍😎 It has a Vice City vibes to it. 💯 Thanks for the product review Packman! 👌

[@PackmanCards]

I’m definitely a fan of the design! Appreciate you watching!

[@joshrussell654]

Thanks for the review. I was debating on getting into a break and this helped… I’m not too impressed and passing on this set.

[@GriseldaBSF410]

Love the product! Thanks for the review but Gerald Henderson? Lmao

[@PackmanCards]

Idk why he’s still signing 😂

[@ChrisLittmann]

This feels like a mix of Phoenix and Revolution or something.

[@TheSuperMehh]

Pulled a LaMelo Rookie /199 from one of these yesterday

[@PackmanCards]

Congrats!

[@DaveDangles]

Update, I just open my two pre-sales. Got some decent base cards and some numbered cards, but crumpled and threw away all four of the autos.

[@PackmanCards]

The auto checklist looks really weak. So many names that shouldn’t be on there

[@herbyeditz13]

very cool product packman

[@jshirey21]

“His signature hasn’t gotten PP yet.” 🤣

[@MS-37]

They’re interesting looking cards. But damn I can’t keep up with all the different types of sets panini puts out.

[@bubblesnz1059]

I think the best unreleased set would be luminance, prefer that to recon. Agree with them needing to get their priorities straight too

[@PackmanCards]

Luminance would be an awesome set

[@HansensSportsCards]

Interesting how there are no "FOTL" stamps on the cards. If so, what makes these special FOTL cards, other than the added exclusive parallels? Those aren't even all #'d. Just got 3 Hobby Boxes in stock. Unsure if I'll open or sell them

[@Danny-hk5pk]

That nnaje rc is also a jersey numbered card

[@jasonramos5101]

Hey pack man, when u say srp vs resale what does that mean? is srp for this box mean 150 for retailers?

[@PackmanCards]

We all pay resale, but the MSRP is $150. Only big breakers and hobby shops get it for around that price though. It’s still important because that’s the price that the boxes are made to provide value at

[@BigJBasketball]

Thanks for the review! The cards definitely look nice, I especially like the Rookie Review insert set. But overall I agree, they probably didn’t need to release this as a standalone set and they should focus on releasing Mosaic and Chronicles, and then get to the 2021-22 products like Hoops, Donruss, and Prizm

[@PackmanCards]

Yea they’re really far behind and need to get back on track instead of extending this rookie class. Thanks for watching!

[@lukeroe5972]

And let's face it, Hoops Premium Stock was great last year with new pictures of the Rookie class, was solid AF Have 2 boxes of Mosaic pre ordered and by the time I get them it'll be x Mas in Aus

[@Qwinniethepooh]

Dude, I am spamming your videos and you got me fiending to crack some packs but I'm in South Korea and there's one hobby store, and they're sold out of everything but some of the blasters haha. Oh well. I'll go wild when I get back to the states, but until then you're killin me and also tiding me over. Thanks for your videos brother.

[@PackmanCards]

Thanks! Hopefully you can get your hands on some packs!

[@Qwinniethepooh]

@@PackmanCards Thanks man! Found some of the Optic cello packs. I'll grab a box of those next week.

[@jakobe328]

The inserts in this set look really nice.

[@_.Username.Not.Found._1]

When you say SRP and resale, what do you mean? Wouldnt buying directly from Panini be SRP but they charge way more then what you say. Thanks

[@thadrand2875]

Not a bad looking set.

[@fredramirez4822]

The design looks good and quality seems to be good.

[@traviseland5694]

I’m very happy with seeing this, great looking cards. And I like the thicker stock

[@arwildcat8553]

I would rather have seen them get the other products like mosaic out on time then adding new products. Maybe fanatics will get things straightened out when they take over.

[@Jamooh]

Yeah, not the biggest fan of this product, well those inserts looks fine but base cards are too "messy" IMO Great vid again mr. Packman!

[@PackmanCards]

Thanks! The inserts definitely look nice imo!

[@millardhardy2282]

By far in my opinion the coolest card vive seen back is nice love the recon I don't hear well ,if these r a year lold trying to top , improve on these with next recon cards will b very hard these r my fav ty mh

[@timtam888]

Love the purple! You’re due for a Melo

[@markthomas2111]

EXCITED by this set.

[@Diamond-er4xl]

Do you think it would be worth picking up a optic halo Ja and a purple shock Ja for $15

[@ronaldmusser1485]

Damn this was so much better than my box. My two autos were Jalen Brunson and Joakim Noah. My best cards outside of those were two non numbered Jae'son Tates lol. Cool cards though

[@PackmanCards]

Dang better luck next time!

[@beelor5777]

These would look better if it was Optic since they using the shine factor. If they had more of a matte look would be better as paper.

[@RomulusHobbies]

Cool cards! But it sucks that it’s a 1st off the line and there’s no “WOW” factor!? They need to up their game towards 1st off the line cards…

[@outofsteptrading]

They should’ve just called is Status Premium. Nice cards though

[@bluphobia]

cards look ok! In a case break today so looking forward to hitting a nice crappy vet auto :)

[@PackmanCards]

😂😂

[@bluphobia]

@@PackmanCards Got Timberwolves. 2 Edwards base cards in the case. (3 Lamelo). A true tragedy

[@bigvoldaddygaming2125]

I have always wondered this but never asked, what do you do with all your base cards or anything you don’t wanna keep?

[@ryderdoran2161]

Give them to relatives or little kids

[@StevenMcDowell88]

Straight fire pulls!!! Lets go

[@brandonvanhorn8116]

Nice looking set. Wonder if they will release this for retail.

[@jrips3398]

I just popped in to say Ja Morant is a DAWG!!! Also great Vid.

[@PackmanCards]

Thanks! Ja is a man on a mission!

[@marcglo3815]

pretty sure a lot of delays have to do with the delays at the shipping ports and not solely panini

[@TheVgaTV]

Another product, another example of Panini scraping the bottom of the barrel for their autos. In no sane universe should Gerald Henderson be an auto in a $575 product (or any current product for that matter). Never an all-star, couldn't even make the all-rookie team, and hasn't played since 2017. Pretty sure if you offered him $575 dollars he'd come spend a day with you and sign whatever you want.

[@RD-dd9ol]

Completely Agree, and I loved him when he was on the Blazers. That auto is worth $5-10. Ridiculous to have it in a $500+ box

[@TheVgaTV]

@@RD-dd9ol $5-$10 is generous. I'm a Hornets fan, and would think twice if I saw that card in the dollar bin

[@dubsdashiit]

Lol facts

[@johnielolclown1613]

Kinda a newbie question, What size Sleeves and holders do you keep around? Is it normals and 135s?

[@stephensaldivar7286]

Nice background Lamelo! just lost an ebay auction for one yesterday

[@scottbartels8976]

Nice dude, revolution defo a underrated set. Just got a Chinese New Year Lamelo myself, gorgeous card.

[@KJD76]

When is 21/22 Optic and Prizm release? I never make it to the stores in time.

[@tjcollects7749]

Recons before are in a Chronicles box right?

[@blacklabelbreaks2106]

I think the shadow in the future legend inserts is the nba logo

[@talkinhoops8602]

we are going to get prizm basketball next christmas

[@pizzamcgee5469]

I think they look rad

[@scoa]

The card designs reminds me of some the Status cards. Not bad looking. If these are more budget oriented, seems like a decent set for that range. Don't think I'd buy it for the current resale prices though.

[@alftanner866]

This is a hobby replacement of Status with a purple background like last year with Illusions

[@scoa]

@@alftanner866 Ahh, I see. Appreciate the knowledge.

[@journeyman_cards]

Thanks again for another timely review Packman

[@PackmanCards]

Thanks for watching!

[@jamestaffae5178]

I think the base was nice. I am not big insert person unless they have game warn patches. Obviously sticker autos make me wanna cry

[@tommygosman155]

I got this box but not fotl I did get anthony Davis auto and rick mahorn

[@PackmanCards]

🔥🔥🔥

[@damonarvid3548]

Recon, with the look from 19-20 Chronicles, was one I was looking forward to slightly... but the blanket purple and fuscia hue, and sticker autos, I could do without. Another miss in my book, though maybe that will keep the price point semi-affordable.

[@shayneweber2227]

I just opened up a leaf ultimate sports 2021 box, and I pulled a Muhammad Ali Kobe Bryant Mickey mantle jack Nicklaus joe Montana and gordie Howe game used memorabilia card, what do you guys think it’s worth?
