搶先看: 2012-13 Limited Basketball

Ysponder

Limited Basketball – one of the hoops hobby’s most beloved releases — returns to the hardwood in late November with a revamped 2012-13 edition that includes a clever new technological “twist” and a radically reconfigured Rookie Card design.

Those two noteworthy developments, in concert with the continuation of Panini America’s massive and historic Double Rookie Class, should give longtime loyalists their most loaded Limited yet.


For starters, there’s the cutting-edge RC design that’s printed on clear acetate stock, hard-signed and die-cut to mimic the shape of the NBA Rookie of the Year Award. There will be 100 Rookie Cards total, including the likes of 2012 NBA ROY Kyrie Irving and 2012 No. 1 overall pick Anthony Davis, with none numbered to more than 399.

Limited also features the debut of Panini America’s “Revolution” memorabilia card concept in the Home & Away insert. The suspended two-sided memorabilia piece in the middle of each card spins to reveal a swatch of home game-worn jersey on one side and a swatch of road game-worn jersey on the other.

The 2012-13 Limited Basketball base set features 250 cards (including 100 Rookies), as well as three base-set parallels (Silver, Gold and Platinum), six unique memorabilia inserts and five unique autographed inserts. Each seven-card box will deliver two autographed cards (including one hard-signed RC) and one memorabilia card.

Limited’s other highlights include . . .

• The return of the popular Glass Cleaners insert with multiple versions including Memorabilia, Prime Memorabilia, Autographs, Autographs Memorabilia and Autographs Memorabilia Prime. Each version features a unique player roster highlighting the game’s best rebounders.
• Look for five other autographed insert sets including Unlimited Potential, Masterful Marks, Spotlight Signatures, Material Monikers and Material Monikers Prime.
• The debut of the Lights Out memorabilia insert focusing on the game’s best scorers doing what they do best: Shooting the lights out.

The Panini America Quality Control Gallery: 2012-13 Limited Basketball (76 Images)




For those passionate NBA collectors who’ve spent the last few weeks totally chasing Totally Certified or being completely preoccupied with Prizm, know this: 2012-13 Limited Basketball goes live this week offering an altogether different — yet every bit as exciting — experience. Boasting some of the most uniquely shaped autographed Rookie Cards the hoops hobby has ever seen and a completely new twist on the game-worn memorabilia genre, the new-look Limited looks to be unlike any that have come before.

Those aforementioned Rookie Cards — printed on hugely popular acetate stock, signed on-card and die cut to resemble the Eddie Gottlieb Trophy annually awarded to the league’s top rookie — are sure to be conversation starters, as are the revolutionary Home & Away Memorabilia cards with a spinning square built into the card that twists to reveal a piece of game-worn home jersey on one side and a piece of game-worn away jersey on the other.


While those two innovations are likely to steal most of the Limited headlines, the product is brimming with other bells and whistles, including the return of the popular Glass Cleaners insert and the captivating Lights Out, Curtain Call and Center Stage game-worn memorabilia inserts.

There’s also a comprehensive checklist honoring the game’s greatest rookies, current star and retired legends that should appeal equally to collectors of all eras.

Below is a massive gallery detailing some of the most intriguing finds from the recently completed Quality Control process for 2012-13 Limited Basketball. The product goes live on Wednesday, so stay tuned to The Knight’s Lance for additional coverage throughout the week. For now, though, get your week off on the right foot with the following gallery.
