Frequently asked
What makes 2020 Playbook different from other 2020 football products?
Playbook is built around booklet cards. Every hobby box includes one guaranteed booklet hit, and the product is split between hobby (premium, all hits) and retail (traditional base set plus inserts). The booklet designs are the real draw, with multi-panel layouts, die-cuts, and oversized swatches.
What are the key rookie autographs to chase?
Joe Burrow, Tua Tagovailoa, Justin Herbert, and Justin Jefferson are the marquee 2020 rookies. Their Rookie Playbook Jersey Autographs come in base (/149 to /299) and numbered parallels down to 1/1 versions like NFL Shield, Nike Swoosh, and Laundry Tag.
How do the base card parallels work?
Base cards (100 veterans, 100 rookies) come in Orange, Purple, Gold (/49), Platinum (/25), Green (/10), and Red (1/1). Retail is the only place to find the base set itself; hobby boxes don't include base cards, only hits.
What's the difference between hobby and retail?
Hobby boxes are premium: one pack with four cards, all hits (booklet plus three additional autos/memorabilia). Retail (mega and hanger boxes) includes the 200-card base set, inserts, and fewer guaranteed hits. Retail-exclusive inserts are Blitz, Captains, Next Up, and Zoning Commission.
Are there any veteran autographs or memorabilia?
Yes. Playbook Material Autographs feature vets with three memorabilia pieces and a signature (/49 or less). There's also Nexus Tri-Fold Jumbo Jerseys with three different players' swatches, and Face 2 Face Signatures pairing two players in a matchup.
What's the case structure and SRP?
Hobby boxes come 16 per case. The YouTube snippet mentions a $150 SRP per hobby box. Mega boxes are 4 packs at $40 retail, and hanger boxes are also available. Secondary market prices have varied significantly since release.
Do the booklet cards have any special finishes?
Yes. Vault Tri-Fold Jersey Autographs use acetate for a premium look. Game of Inches has die-cut layers that spread across both panels. Many booklets also come in specialty parallels like Gloves (/2 or less), Complete Logo (1/1), Leather NFL Shield (1/1), and Nike Swoosh (1/1).
