actually they kind of have, someone pulled a Kobe Black Mamba card from Hoops that i had never heard of and apparently very rare, so thats a start.

I did see that. 1:10000 packs is CRAZY.
Not sure the card itself is gonna blow anyone away but a great pull no doubt.

Rare WIN. Design FAIL!

Not a 1:10000 , but still a very difficult pull
2011-12 Panini NBA Hoops
Kobe Black Mamba
Note: These are hard to get - 1st one sold $125 on eBay
- 1 Kobe Bryant
Panini: "These cards are inserted 1:15-20 CASES
Thanks for the info. In the break it said 1:10000
So maybe 1:540 - 1:720???
Still a nice score from Hoops.
It's all about $$ for the card companies, if u can sell to ur customers"4 autos in every pack" etc etc then they are going to buy. It would be hard going back to boxes that only produce maybe 1 good card in a box when they now expect so much. I guess this also allows them to charge $200-500 a box too.
Rare WIN. Design FAIL!
Personally I wish they would just leave the original inserts alone and find something new. If you want the original inserts go and find one. If its about the prices of boxes and rarity of inserts then make a cheaper box with rare NEW inserts. I hope it does not impact the price of original inserts as I'm sure people have spent a lot of money on them!!
I agree, I don't really love even that Fleer Retro is copying off the old designs. They should keep the names (Noyz Boyz, Scoring Kings etc), make the cards rarer, add a new design and then make the checklist just the TOP 20 guys in the League. But with pretty much any and every player being collected these days I guess they can make a checklist involving everyone to keep all happy.
To me it's not very clear cut how rare cards are. They all seem to numbered /100 or less. It does'nt really mean much.
I'm still waiting for that killer card set that I just HAVE TO HAVE. Panini Preffered Silhouettes have been the best thing they've brought out along with the Nat treasures logoman.
But nothing in the way of inserts. Rare ones.
