I had the distinct pleasure of venturing over to the Panini America production facility twice earlier this week — once to check out the final stages of packout for 2014-15 Gold Standard Basketball and once to capture images for the upcoming Super Bowl Private Signings promotion that will kickoff tomorrow over on iCollectPanini.com. While I was there, though, I couldn’t help but notice the spectacular early stages of production for upcoming blockbusters such as 2014 Immaculate Football and 2014 National Treasures Football.
So in a mean feat of multi-tasking, I snapped as many pics as I could — featuring uncut sheets filled with massive pieces of Immaculate memorabilia, fabulous foil remnants from National Treasures and so much more. All of that and more is profiled below in a gallery befitting tonight’s 2015 Pro Bowl showcase featuring real-life fantasy football teams selected by honorary captains Michael Irvin and Cris Carter.
But what follows is no ordinary gallery. It also serves as another of The Knight’s Lance’s fabled scavenger hunts. Among the images featured below, we’ve hidden three (sometimes smaller, sometimes perhaps-somewhat-manipulated) versions of the Panini America knight helmet logo that appears below — and we’re giving you until tomorrow night to find them. This time, the prize pool includes autographed 2015 NFLPA Collegiate Bowl mini helmets from Teddy Bridgewater, Mike Evans, Jordan Matthews and Brandin Cooks. That’s four total prizes!
Somewhere in the linked galleries below, we’ve hidden three images of the Panini knight helmet. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find the hidden images and tell us — AS A COMMENT TO THIS POST — where you found them. We’ll wait to approve all comments until after the entry deadline — which is tomorrow night (January 26, at 11:59 p.m. CST) — so your comment will appear to you as “pending moderation.” That’s our way of protecting your answers to this contest so that everyone else can’t see them.
To be eligible to win, PLEASE KEEP THE ANSWERS TO YOURSELF (DON’T SHARE THEM WITH OTHER CONTESTANTS) until after the deadline. We want to reward those folks who’ve taken the time and effort to find the hidden images. We’ll place all correct entries into an online randomizer and award one of the four aforementioned prizes to four lucky winners.
Just to be clear, here is the hidden image you’re looking for:
Now, let’s get to the Immaculate and National Treasures eye candy. Enjoy and good luck . . .
