2015 Spectra Football First Look

In its first two years of existence, Panini America’s Spectra Football franchise has developed a loyal following among hardcore collectors as a go-to brand for higher-end Optichrome kicks, jaw-dropping jumbo memorabilia cards, and absolutely stacked autograph and memorabilia rosters that work in concert with the colorful Spectra technology to create some of the most impressive looking cards of every season.

And when 2015 Spectra Football arrives in early September just in time for the start of the new NFL season, it will do so with all of its trademark characteristics firmly intact — and with a few new wrinkles, too. For 2015, Spectra Football will deliver color-coordinated inks to match its Neon Blue, Neon Green, Neon Orange and Neon Pink Rookie Jersey Patch Autographs parallels. It will also include only patches in that chase, too.

Panini America Takes 2015 NBA Draft Social with #HoopsRookie Real-Time Reveal | The Official Panini America Blog

BROOKLYN, N.Y. — NBA commissioner Adam Silver presided over his second NBA Draft last night at Barclays Center and spent every five minutes or so helping NBA dreams come true for some of the most talented young basketball players on the planet. Just a few months later, Panini America will continue that dream by releasing the first NBA-licensed Rookie Cards of last night’s picks inside 2015-16 NBA Hoops Basketball.

And if you weren’t keeping up with the Panini America Twitter and Instagram feeds last night, well, you missed out on the Panini America #HoopsRookie reveal, a real-time unveiling of the top picks’ 2015-16 NBA Hoops Basketball Rookie Cards. It started just minutes after No. 1 overall pick Karl-Anthony Towns was selected by the Minnesota Timberwolves and lasted until the wee hours of Friday morning, until we could properly celebrate that Rakeem Christmas gift of a jacket following the big man’s trade to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

2015 Elite Baseball Drops Next Week

There are many things about next week’s release of 2015 Elite Baseball that longtime brand loyalists will expect from a product that’s been a baseball-card industry staple for almost two decades, including such inserts as Throwback Threads and Back 2 Back Jacks, an array of colorful parallels and a stacked roster of autographs and memorabilia. But a few twists — most notably the Collegiate Elite insert and the random insertion of on-card autographs from 2015 Prizm Baseball that missed packout for that product — should generate a new level of excitement for a release that appeals equally to veteran collectors and newcomers alike.

2014-15 Spectra Basketball Coming Next Week

Panini America’s colorful, Prizm-infused Spectra brand has wasted precious little time in etching out a loyal following among hardhcore hoops collectors. In fact, with just one inaugural release last season, Spectra Basketball became a bona fide favorite — as much for its perfect-for-Prizm designs as for its rich autograph and memorabilia content. When the second installment arrives next week, collectors will revel in the fact that the brand has only improved with age.

2014-15 Spectra Basketball releases one week from today and will deliver seven autograph or memorabilia cards in every box. 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. After the jump, you can discover a little bit of everything else the product has to offer.
