“ The good part is what appears to be an on-card auto, SN 4/10. The bad part...the rest of the card. ” -CollectingAfterDeath

“ Someone should have told Panini that this design Schunk! ” -Tscastle

“ A card of a draft pick that is not in uniform that may or may not ever play for the big league team. A team collector's worst nightmare. ” -hiflew

“ I'd have chunked this idea quickly as elitism and tie-dying aren't knotted together in my opinion. ” -Sportzcommish

“ OK auto card looks on card. Don't like the X design. Not big on the Elite brand. ” -captkirk42

Where's the "tie-dye"?

A good card apart from the background, which most certainly isn't a tie-dye design.

In hindsight, I realized I was being a bit harsh with my comment on this card. I believe the background was so off, that it made me want to look away. I do like the fact that the player is in action, and headed right to the person holding the card to look at it, along with the information on the back being separated nicely. An immediate improvement to the card, would be to remove that constant reuse of the word "aspirations" in the background. Now if they would have used some real lumber, instead of printed wood on the front, and where the real wood is, to burn / brand the serial number into it. Now that would have been cool, but knowing Panini, they would treat this like an immaculate creation, and price it as though it were the Mona Lisa.
