Over the course of its first few years in existence, Panini America’s flashy Spectra Basketball franchise has often blown fans and collectors away with a litany of colorful calling cards and deft utilization of the company’s still-captivating Optichrome printing technology. It’s been a winning recipe rife with big hits for the last three years . . . and it’s a recipe worth repeating (but with a few new twists).
Set to arrive in mid June, 2016-17 Spectra Basketball will deliver, on average, seven autograph or memorabilia cards in every 10-card box (six boxes per case). Every autographed card in the product features a piece of memorabilia and a chase-worthy ensemble of parallels, including the all-new Nebula 1/1 version.
The highlights of 2016-17 Spectra Basketball are many and include . . .
Global Icons Memorabilia Autographs showcasing 15 of the most popular NBA players from around the world.
Calling-card Rookie Jersey Autograph gems honoring members of the 2016-17 NBA Rookie Class and featuring on-card autographs, base versions numbered to 300 or less and parallels numbered to as low as one.
A wide variety of specifically themed autograph sets with multiple parallel versions, jumbo-prime memorabilia versions and a spectacular mix of current, retired and rookie NBA players.
We’ll have plenty more on 2016-17 Spectra Basketball in the coming weeks right here on The Knight’s Lance. But for now, enjoy this extended first look:
With the 2017 NBA Finals set to get underway Thursday night, an international audience promises to be glued to the third straight showdown between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors from the opening tip on. So as we anxiously await Game 1, we wanted to offer something to help pass the time. We’ll have a comprehensive Quality Control Gallery for the unique 2016-17 Studio Basketball in the coming days, but we figured an early glimpse at some of the memorabilia gems planned for 2016-17 Spectra Basketball might hit the spot today.
In the gallery that follows, we sneak a peek at some of the prime-memorabilia parallels permeating Spectra’s Spectacular Swatches, Triple Threat, Catalysts and Next Era inserts. 2016-17 Spectra Basketball is set to arrive in hobby shops across North America later this month. Studio Basketball goes live next Friday, June 9. Enjoy the gallery and stay tuned later this week for an extensive preview of 2016-17 Studio Basketball.
There’s just something about Panini America’s bold Spectra brand. No matter the year, no matter the sport, Spectra continues to impress with each new release, bolstered from the beginning by an irresistible combination of colors, content and construction. So as the company prepares to release 2016-17 Spectra Basketball next Wednesday, it should comes as absolutely no surprise that the key brand tenets return vibrantly intact.
On average, each box of 2016-17 Spectra Basketball will deliver two base cards, one parallel, four autographs and three memorabilia cards. The new-this-year Nebula 1/1 parallel is a spectacular addition to the product and the usual arsenal of rainbow chases return with their dazzling surface variances. Ink and prime-memorabilia specimens abound again as well.
You can get an extended sneak peek at this year’s release in the must-see Quality Control Gallery that follows. Enjoy the imagery and stay tuned to The Knight’s Lance for continued coverage.
