Box of 16 Optic
Not too bad. I really like these and I'm glad its two autos a box instead of an auto and a GU. I believe I got one of the "hot" boxes, every pack had a refractor in it. As usual, right church, wrong pew was hoping for one of those 5 auto boxes like I keep seeing but overall I'm happy!

Also bought four packs of the new certified football that just came out, hit a redemption for a Hunter Henry Auto Patch and I pulled this Hunter Henry:

No doubt man. I am not pro-panini anything, but these I really do like. I'll surely be buying more, and even more incentive is the fact that those hot boxes are out there with 5 autos a box!

Nice pulls, man! I would be happy to trade for any Lucroys you pull and don't need.

I love this stuff. As sharp as the autos are that I've picked up, the colors are even more sharp. I like this stuff a lot. Depending on the bill situation next week, I might have to pick up a box.

Hobby or retail?
Nice stuff .... Sorta like a Panini version of Topps Chrome.
Was this the product that replaced Prizm?
I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

It's hobby exclusive I believe. I've been told it was the product that replaced Prizm but I can't say for sure. I despise Panini as a company but I'm forced to buy their stuff when my LCS is sold out of Topps stuff. All in all, I like it, it's a cheap and fun break.

I think it's actually both hobby and retail. I've seen some blasters for sale online and I believe the purple parallels are retail exclusive. That or the pink.
Given that the purple haven't shown up yet, I'm guessing retail has yet to drop.

Thats cool actually. Do the blasters guarantee an auto? If they do, I'd surely be buying quite a few of those but I can't see that really making any sense at a 20 dollar price point for Panini.
