Frequently asked
What makes 2019-20 Spectra worth opening?
It's a high-end chromium release with 4 autographs and 4 parallels per box on average. The big draw is landing Rookie Jersey Autographs of Zion Williamson or Ja Morant on-card, plus the new Color Blast insert is brutally short-printed.
Who are the key rookie autographs?
Zion Williamson and Ja Morant are the marquee names. Both have Rookie Jersey Autographs with multiple parallel tiers. Zion's base auto is /60, while Ja's is /99. Other notable rookies include RJ Barrett, Cam Reddish, and Rui Hachimura.
What are the parallel tiers?
Base and insert cards come in Silver (unlimited), Celestial /99, Interstellar /49, Meta /25, Gold /10, Universal Die-Cut /8, Marble /5, and Nebula 1/1. The Rookie Jersey Autographs have their own parallel structure with Wave FOTL /39 and Gold Wave FOTL /3 exclusive to 1st Off the Line boxes.
What's Color Blast and why is it so hard to pull?
Color Blast is a 25-card insert set of current and veteran NBA stars making its Spectra debut. It's described as super-short printed, making it one of the toughest hits in the product alongside the premium autographs.
What's the difference between regular hobby and 1st Off the Line boxes?
Regular hobby boxes guarantee 4 autographs and 4 parallels. 1st Off the Line (FOTL) boxes, sold through Panini's website, guarantee either a Rookie Jersey Autograph Wave or Gold Wave plus 3 additional autographs and 4 parallels.
