  1. Wow! I think my jaw just dropped. The designs in play here are phenomenal. Just wow. I haven’t seen anything like this. I know Panini has done great work with Prizm technology and also tried the stained glass cards, and this is once again totally unique and special. Great work Panini team!

  2. How much does a box of this 2013-14 Court Kings cost?

    On a side note, please bring back those “Private Signings” hard-signed autograph cards!

  3. Cool new stuff. It’s definitely different enough to deserves its own name and box instead of just being an insert in another set.

  4. Looks to have its own unique feel, which is a good thing. Glad to see a set that features players who played their entire careers for one team. I pitched that idea to Keith this past year except I had called it Loyalty lol.

  5. I’ve never purchased boxes, just the cards I want but these look awesome! I’m looking forward to this release. Any word on price?

  6. Very cool product indeed! Hopefully you guys will bring back Rookies and Stars, Classics and Season Update from prior years for basketball!
