With this extension, Panini gives itself a crucial anchor in a shifting licensing landscape.
As someone that collects NBA and WNBA, I guess we will see a good comparison between fanatics and panini products, release dates, and quality control
I agree. The tough part is there are a lot fewer WNBA products than NBA, even with Panini adding more releases. 5 vs 5 billion (or so it feels).
Sad news for collectors, though. Check out the horrible quality control on 2025 Donruss WNBA, with Crunch Time cards severely miscut. Ah well, at least the Rated Rookie cards live on! I'm happy with that. (Thanks for posting this, Sooz!)
