Panini America Provides Detailed First Look at 2018 Spectra Football (Preview Gallery)
How, exactly, does a Product Development team improve upon a product like Spectra Football, already one of the most popular releases on Panini America’s NFL calendar every year? Well, for starters, that team can add new chase-worthy colors to the Prizm rainbow — such as Neon Purple and New Marble. That team could also add more on-card autographs and more 1/1s than ever before. In short, that team could do exactly what Panini America will do for 2018 Spectra Football when it releases in mid September.
On average, each hobby box of 2018 Spectra Football (four cards per packs, four packs per box, eight boxes per case) will deliver four autographs, seven memorabilia cards and three Prizms. But there are also randomly inserted “Reverse Boxes” that deliver seven autographs and four memorabilia cards. Returning for 2018 are some of Spectra’s most iconic inclusions, including Dual Patch Autographs (numbered to 35 or less) and Illustrious Legends.
Additional highlights of the product are many and include . . .
- Stunning Rookie Patch Autographs featuring the NFL’s future stars numbered to 199 or less.
- The spectacular Super Bowl Champion Signatures insert will be the only 2018 autograph set to feature photography of the iconic Vince Lombardi Trophy.
- Aspiring Patch Autographs and Rookie Patch Autographs feature a rainbow array of parallels numbered from 199 all the way down to only one. Key chases include Neon Blue, Neon Green, Neon Purple, Neon Pink, Neon Black Light, Neon Orange, Neon Marble, Nebula and Gold.
- Rookie Dual Patch Autographs includes two autographs and two pieces of memorabilia on each card.
- Autographs from the NFL’s greatest legends and veteran stars are featured in such inserts as Illustrious Legends and Super Bowl Champion Signatures.
- Look for the season’s most alluring memorabilia cards in chases such as Epic Legends Materials, Monumental Memorabilia and Building Blocks.
