Teaser Gallery: Panini America Breaks One Jumbo Box of 2013-14 Score Hockey

Yes, we know that the official release date for the highly anticipated 2013-14 Score Hockey Hobby Jumbo product doesn’t arrive until next Wednesday. But you can’t really present us with a box 10 days early and expect us not to open it. After all, Panini America fans and readers of The Knight’s Lance crave nothing more than the earliest possible sneak peeks — and that’s exactly what we intend to give you right now.

The first thing you notice about a 2013-14 Score Hockey Hobby Jumbo box is the girth. It’s a massive pack-busting proposition that tips the scales at more than 2.2 pounds and delivers a whopping 520 total cards.

Over the course of 10 packs you’ll discover two autographs, one Team 8s eight-piece memorabilia card and an abundant array of Hot Rookies RCs (the first installment of Panini America’s season-long Double Rookie Class), Gold and Black parallels, unparalleled photography and a slew of captivating inserts. The following gallery illustrates most of those things, and should give collectors a keen understanding of the magic that awaits when the product goes live next Wednesday.

Enjoy.
