Hockey Card Trailers: 12/13 Panini Prime

       I know it's a little late, but better late then never! So a few months ago I was astonished when I saw some preview pictures of cards in 12/13 Panini Prime. I am going to add a pro's and con's list to soem of my reviews. I hope I can get some more boxes in soon. Before I get them I thought i'd right a little bit about some new products that are just coming. This is the time of year where new sports cards come out. So for the next few weeks this site is going to busy so keep on looking on. So as we were talking I decided I was going to do a pro's and con's list. So heres mine for Prime:

                 Pro's:    

• Really cool design
• Added some things such as Prime Skates, Prime Laces, and Prime Gloves
• The base design is very sleek
• Prime Coverage are very nice, also they have everything in one

                  Con's:     

•       Hard to get cool hits such as Prime Skates, Prime Laces, and Prime Gloves

       Thats the only Con I have. Starting with the pro's, "Really cool design" for almost every single card in this set. let's start with the base The base design is sleek and more of a stealth look. Onto the hits, The All-Star Selections Signatures have a variety of great players with a really cool design. The Authentics can get really fancy. Look down and see a picture. The color logo picture, I especially liked a lot. Just that big patch gets me pumped to see more. Color Numbers are sort of the same except it has the players numbers on them. There are Prime Laces and Gloves. That is amazing! I really want an Alex Ovechkin Prime Laces. Then comes Seems Incredible well it is in INCREDIBLE! It also comes with one Dominion bonus pack per each box.

Hockey Cards Trailer: 13/14 Panini Score Hockey

   I have not written one of these trailers in along time. So, let’s get right into the product. Score has been a series over the past years. The base design of score has been my favorite base design. Let me know what you think about the base card design. 13/14 score retail version just came out recently. The Jumbo box for 13/14 Score has yet to come out. The jumbo box is expected to come out on July 24th which is in 3 days. 
   

    As usual we start with the box. The box is very different from the 12/13 score hockey box. It looks very similar to the 2013 Football score box. I think this box is cooler then the 12/13 score box. This box is flat and has 36 packs in it. It’s interesting that a little box like this can fit 36 packs with 12 cards inside them. Well, anyway let’s move on.
    

   Onto the base we see a very similar design also to 2013 football score. So far two things in this set look exactly like 2013 Football score. Anyway score is very nice. I love how the score symbol on the bottom of the card is silver. The colors go very well together. Score has a very clean and mature look to it’s base. The back side is very simple. Again just like Football. Check out my other review on 2013 score football to see the differences.

      As usual score has an insert called Hot Rookies. This years and last years hot rookies blew me away with the design. In this years hot rookies, I love the design. Especially the part on the bottom where it’s black then the black fades away into the picture of the player. In the regular box, not the jumbo box you get an average of 18 Hot Rookies per regular box. There are many more inserts in this years set as shown down below.

Future Team

The Future Franchise.
This card is the telling of future.
You may think that the Oilers stink, but once
all of there prospects become older and get better
they will have an outstanding team.

Team Leaders.
This is a new insert that I really love.

Netcam

The Franchise

     A product made always must have hits. So let’s see the score hits. The first hit I want to talk about is the eye popping Hot Rookies Autographs. The hot rookies autograph look nothing like the insert “hot rookies”. The part I mostly love about it is that the players face is faded in the background as you see up top. Now, let’s move onto the score signatures. Last year score took a big leap on putting more signatures into packs. let year I opened about 30 packs of score and found two autographs inside. The Score Signatures has a very nice touch to it as you see down below.

Football Card Trailers: 2012 Panini Playbook

     The name 'Playbook" Which is so thoughtful and creative means this product has to be amazing. Let's first start off with the box. It's very dark looking, It's red and mostly black, The box sort of looks like a real playbook, The box has Robert Griffin III and clearly describes whats inside the box. I am hoping to get one of these boxes to rip open. Now let's on to what you get inside the box. There is ONLY four cards per box. When i'm talking only four cards you could cards that look like a book which are called Rookie Autograph Booklets which is my favorite hit for 2012 football cards. If I ever get a box, I hope I get one of the Rookie Autograph Booklets. Now moving on to the base autographs. The base autographs are numbered 1/1 which means that that is the only card in the world. My rating for this product: 8.7/10. Well now, let's look at this high end product:

Basketball Cards Trailer: 12/13 Panini Brilliance

I love this product of 12/13 Brilliance. The things i love about Brilliance:

• There is 20 packs per box
• You get at least 2 autographs per box
• You get a total of two autographs, one jersey card, and 13 inserts
• The etching of Brilliance on each base card
• The foil shininess of the base
• Starburst inserts
• Team Tomorrow inserts
• The box cover
• The meshing on the sides

The name Brilliance truly describes 12/13 Panini Basketball Brilliance. I would love this set even more, 

if they made this set for hockey. The base card rating is 10/10. Everything on the Brilliance base card is perfect so therefore I give this a rating of 10/10. This is a comparable style to the set hockey certified also made by Panini. The set includes all-stars such as Kyrie Irving and Andrew Bogut. They box also comes with a Kobe Anthology pack. Let's take a look at these cards filled with "Brilliance":
