As far as hump days go, this one promises to be . . . well . . . quite Spectracular. For today, you see, is no ordinary Wednesday. It’s release day for Panini America’s 2014-15 Spectra Basketball, which means basketball collectors are in for a vibrantly colored, Optichrome-aided kind of day full of low-numbered parallels and high-end heat. We brought you a tantalizing QC glimpse at 2014-15 Spectra Basketball last week. Today, we’re bringing you inside two quick boxes of the product with the Teaser Gallery that follows.
Each box of 2014-15 Spectra Basketball delivers seven autograph or memorabilia cards and some of the coolest single cards you’ll see all season. The product this year also has been bolstered by the addition of Global Icons, a one-per-case chase insert that showcases some of the game’s greatest international players.
In the must-see gallery below, we take you card by card through two boxes of the product. As you’ll see, not only did we unearth one of the rare Global Icons cards, we also discovered the kind of gold that makes you scream “Eureka!”
