After a year on the bench, Panini America has revived the Elite brand with a new wave of new looks for the brand best known for its foilboard.
Since its arrival yesterday, collectors have been finding plenty of on-card ink, plenty of new looks and some EPIX-styled looks that the Elite brand hasn’t seen before on a checklist that includes stars from the past and present as well as the new crop of NFL rookies.
This year’s NFLPA Rookie Premiere is coming — next week — and it will have a new look to it as Panini America takes over as the exclusive trading card licensee for the NFL.
The company has been at work preparing for the event for months and it offered a teaser of what one product will include.
