Panini, should of done what topps did the past... throw in thousands of redemptions for the RC's... worry about the autos later... like they do in every other product.. if they don't get the RC's auto, then "replace it" with a suitable replacement... this seems to be Panini's practice for redemptions. send a replacement for 3 of every 10 redemptions..
They could of used the thousand of pictures of Rookies taken during the first month of the 2012 season. send a bunch of stickers to the players or their REPS to get signed. They should of been able to throw together RC/AUTO cards within 2-3 months.. I would think it would be a simple process.
I hate monopolies when it comes to manufacturing sports cards... so much fraud going on in production of sports cards... & the NBA or other sports, including game cards... don't do anything to prevent it..
