Panini Prizm & Absolute Football

I’ve being hearing alot of hype about this Panini Prizm, and in the number of hobby packs I’ve opened I havent seen much, including the few I got yesterday at the LCS. So then news of how “Limited” the retail Prizm would be, but as you know I’m trying to cut back on that retail thing. (Is there a patch for that or gum?) I hit the local Wal-Mart, sure enough retail Prizm. So not to bore you with the pack by pack blow of this product I will give you the 3 “hits” out of the 5 packs. (See Below) Dr. J (Green), Carmelo (Green), Charles Jenkins (Auto).

2012 Topps Chrome Football Breaks

2012 Topps Chrome has hit the retail outlets, plenty of retail boxes were there but I only grabbed two, three packs out of a unsearched box, and one rak-pack. Here’s the totals from the break.

(1) Black Border Refractor Michael Egnew RC 123/299

(2) Blue Border Refractor Brock Osweiler 135/199, Ndamukong Suh 35/199

(1) Purple Border Refractor Vick Ballard 80/499

(3) 1984 Rookie’s Ronnie Hilman, TJ Graham, Michael Floyd

(5) Refractors Wes Welker, Fletcher Cox, Devon Wylie, LeGarrette Blount, Christian Ponder

(1) Rookie Reprint Aaron Rodgers

(3) 1957 Topps Rookies Kendall Wright, Coby Fleener, Andrew Luck

(2) Tallboys Ronnie Hillman, Coby Fleener (On the back of both cards are the words “The signing of all Topps autograph cards is witnessed by a Topps representative to guarantee authenticity) Yet neither card has an auto on it and I find it hard to believe that I hit two autos and both weren’t signed. This could make faking these autos very easy to resell for the collectors that may not know the difference.

(3) Orange Refractor Jarius Wright, Blaine Gabbert, Carson Palmer

(6) X-Fractors Ben Roethlisberger, Devon Still, Riley Reiff, Reggie Bush, Antonio Gates, Nick Toon

(2) Rookie Relics Joe Adams Ronnie Hillman (Refractor 44/150)

These cards look great and have alot of nice inserts also a very colorful set. Each blaster has a Exclusive Rookie Relic.

This years Goodwin Champions is a very colorful set and has many SP’s and even SSP’s to chase, including many different mini versions. Some collectors arent a big fan of this product because the lack of uniforms, but check out RG3 in his tux, Mattingly in his nice sweater, or even Pete Rose looking like he’s just leaving the softball diamond some of these cards have an interesting look. My “Hit” was a Hulk Hogan Event Used memorabilia card, which I was actually ok with since I grew up a Hulkamania fan, it was a nice “blast” from the pass. Overall a nice break for $20.
