This time next week, Panini America officials will be preparing to unleash the company's trademark brand of passion, energy and show-stealing buzz on the 2013 Toronto Fall Expo. Clearly, we have a lot to share between now and then. We've already pulled the curtain back just a little on our highly anticipated Panini VIP Party. This evening, we're shifting our focus to the wrapper-redemption set that will drive sales and excitement at the Panini America booth all weekend long.
This time next week, Panini America officials will be preparing to unleash the company’s trademark brand of passion, energy and show-stealing buzz on the 2013 Toronto Fall Expo. Clearly, we have a lot to share between now and then. We’ve already pulled the curtain back just a little on our highly anticipated Panini VIP Party. This evening, we’re shifting our focus to the wrapper-redemption set that will drive sales and excitement at the Panini America booth all weekend long.
We’ll preview the set in its entirety — including the show-exclusive numbered Rookie Cards, autographs and memorabilia cards — in the coming days. But in this post, we’re going to focus on our 2013 Toronto Fall Expo base set, a 28-card hockey haven featuring the game’s greatest stars, legends and youngsters.
In addition to nine base cards, there are subsets devoted to Hot Rookies (16 cards) and to three of the legends being inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame on November 11 (Chris Chelios, Scott Nidermayer and Brendan Shanahan). You can catch a glimpse of every card in the set in the following gallery.
In the coming days we’ll provide additional details on all facets of the wrapper-redemption program, the Panini VIP Party and all the other activities we have planned for the 2013 Toronto Fall Expo that will make the Panini America booth the place to be — once again — all Expo long. Stay tuned.
Sweet looking cards. Can we expect cracked ice, lava flow, and progression plates for this set?
We’ll let Scott Prusha tackle this one. You know the wizard behind the curtain always has some tricks up his sleeve.
hey tracy, any word on the special rookie redemption cards from 12-13 limited hockey yet ?
Info and images to come soon.
No Hot rookies of Mackinnon, Galchenyuk, Jones, Huberdeau, Hertl?
Many of those guys will be featured on the numbered RCs that have to be previewed.
Expo redemption packs are always awesome! I had a blast cracking open a few packs at last year’s Fall Expo. Unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to make it this year. If Mr. Prusha is as nice a guy as I think he is, he’ll make a few packs available for a treasure hunt! 🙂
Pretty cool as always.
Looks like another good showing for this event, good luck to everyone above the border with the packs this year. Thanks Tracy!
Just pulled a Christian Thomas Cracked Ice Hot Rookie Auto….Amazing!
