Following five too-long years away from the market, Panini America’s Classics Football franchise made a triumphant return to collecting in 2016 with a completely revamped product that instantly made old-school cool once again. In the two short years since, Panini America Product Developers have continued tinkering to improve the product so that it offers a unique busting experience that’s about so much more than just pulpy cardstock, vibrant throwback designs, quirky variations, and a carefully crafted checklist that features the game’s greatest legends, current stars and hottest rookies.
As a result, 2018 Classics Football might just be the best iteration yet. Set to arrive in hobby shops across North America tomorrow, each hobby box of 2018 Classics Football (10 cards per pack, 14 packs per box, 10 boxes per inner case, two inner cases per master case) will deliver, on average, one autograph, one memorabilia card and four Premium Edition (Optichrome) parallels. In addition to some fantastic new additions, 2018 Classics Football also delivers the blast from the past that fans have come to expect.
In the Teaser Gallery that follows, we take you pack by pack through three early boxes of the product. Enjoy the sneak peek and stay tuned to The Knight’s Lance for continued coverage.
