Some recently released NBA cardboard with extra international appeal could make its way into your collection soon.
It’s the 2017-18 Panini Revolution Chinese New Year’s Edition wax and it will be arriving over at BlowoutCards.com this week when its U.S. arrival date hits on Friday.

Nick Foles‘ big catch gets a solo nod and 35 members of your Super Bowl LII champion Philadelphia Eagles are also getting new football cards very soon.
That’s thanks to Panini Instant.
Panini America‘s real-time trading card platform has a Foles card showing his shocking fourth-down touchdown catch from the big game up for grabs for only 24 hours — all three parallels, including two autographs are already gone — but that’s not all.
If you’re a long-time reader of The Buzz, then you’ve seen this card before, but with the Super Bowl last night in Minneapolis there was a reason for it to hit The Buzz’s Twitter Machine, too.
It’s a 1992 Pro Line Profiles card for Hall of Famer Howie Long, and it was among the few tweets in an 11-hour marathon for Super Bowl LII last night simply because of the tree-climbing kid on the right.
Why? That’s Eagles defensive end Chris Long, who was roughly six years old at the time of this family portrait that made its way to cardboard — and that’s far from the only piece of trivia here.
