2017-18 Panini Spectra takes chromium to the high-end.
That means lots of color, and plenty of autographs
and memorabilia cards to go along with it.
Boxes consist of one pack with nine cards.
Three of those are signatures, another three are relics
while parallels and base make up the final third.
It’s about as colorful and as charismatic as a trading card
product can get.
It’s a different-by-design kind of take on Panini America’s popular Prizm technology
with a rainbow array of parallel chases, lots of autographs and lots of memorabilia.
It annually delivers some of the most striking single cards in the game
with a hit-heavy recipe rife with prime possibilities.
It, of course, is Panini Spectra and it arrives
for the 2017-18 season in mid June.
2017-18 Panini Spectra returns this summer with a new parallel structure that features
Silver Prizm (two per case) and White Sparkle Prizms (one per case).
Other Prizms to chase this year include Neon Blue (numbered to 99),
Red (numbered to 75), Neon Green (numbered to 49), Neon Pink (numbered to 25),
Neon Orange (numbered to five) and the spectacular Nebula 1/1s.
On average, each hobby box of 2017-18 Panini Spectra (nine cards per box,
eight boxes per case) will deliver one base card, two parallels, three autographs
and three memorabilia cards.
Other highlights of the product include . . .
