2020 Panini Chronicles Football Hobby Box

Full checklist
2020 Panini Chronicles Football hobby box
What are these options?
Hobby Box
The full-size box sold through card shops rather than big-box stores. It has the most packs and the best odds, and most modern hobby boxes guarantee at least one autograph or memorabilia card. Pack and card counts vary by product line. Older listings sometimes call this a wax box.
Mega Box
A mid-size retail box, bigger than a blaster and smaller than a hobby box. Mega-exclusive parallels are the main draw, and some megas guarantee a hit.
Blaster Box
The small retail box sold at stores like Walmart and Target, usually the cheapest full box on the shelf. Autographs are not guaranteed, but many blasters carry exclusive parallels you cannot pull from a hobby box.
Hanger Box
The cheapest retail format, a slim box made to hang on a store peg. It gives the most cards per dollar and suits set builders more than hit chasers.
h2
Panini's compact take on a hobby box, short for Hobby Hybrid. Fewer packs, one guaranteed autograph, and parallels found only in H2 boxes. On this productHobby Hybrid boxes are the only place to find regular Crown Royale cards, with 10 exclusive Crown Royale Rookies, 4 Opti-Chrome Rookies, 2 numbered parallels and 14 rookies per box.
Cases
The factory-sealed carton a product ships in, holding a set number of boxes. A full case is the whole carton; an inner case is a smaller sealed block from inside it. Case buyers get untouched pack sequencing and a lower price per box. Some rare cards are seeded about once per case, which is what collectors mean by a case hit.
