Frequently asked
Who's 2024-25 Panini Obsidian for?
The deep end. People buy this chasing top rookie patch autos and legend signatures, and the price reflects it.
What's the main draw of 2024-25 Obsidian?
The product is built around two autographs per hobby box and the Electric Etch Flood parallels, which come in bright colors numbered down to /1. The chromium stock and etching give it a premium feel that collectors chase year after year.
How many autographs are in a hobby box?
A standard hobby box averages 2 autographs and 1 memorabilia card. The international version has 1 auto or memorabilia per box on average, making it a cheaper entry point.

Rookie Jersey Autographs and Rookie Jersey Ink are the main returning rookie auto sets. New for 2024-25 is Scorched Signatures, which features a flame design. All come in multiple parallels, including rare low-numbered and 1/1 versions.
What makes the Flood parallels so popular?
Flood parallels are numbered from /125 down to /1, with multiple color tiers (Orange, Purple, Blue, Green, Gold, etc.). The rarest versions like /1 Ashen Flood and /1 Vibrant Mojo Flood are extremely scarce and drive the secondary market.
