Now that the countdown to release for Panini America’s upcoming 2016 Flawless Soccer can be measured in hours as opposed to weeks or months, the anticipation — like the goose bumps — has become tangible. You can feel it coming. In two short days, 2016 Flawless Soccer will arrive in hobby shops across North America, bringing with it a bar-raising, barrier-busting finished product that promises to change the way collectors see — and collect — high-end soccer trading cards.

Over the last several weeks, we’ve brought you a front-row seat to many of the reasons why. Today, we’re bringing you a few more. Namely, we’re showcasing the hard-signed brilliance authored by international soccer superstars Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo for inclusion in the inaugural release of Flawless Soccer.

Aside from the two paragraphs above, the images you’re about to see really need no additional introduction. Although you may want to be sitting down while you view the gallery, just to be safe.
