GET 2 FREE PANINI DAY PACKS WITH EACH 2018 ILLUSIONS FOOTBALL BOX ($139.95) PURCHASE (Wednesday) AT SPORTS CARDS PLUS


More autographs. More parallels. A throwback design that takes collectors right back to the flash-filled 1990s and early 2000s. And a chance to be a part of Panini America’s 2018 Kickoff promotion. That’s the short list of attributes associated with the early October release of 2018 Illusions Football. The 2018 edition picks up right where last year’s debut left off, with unique two-player fronts featuring one current player and one former player from the same team.

But 2018 Illusions Football has more going for it than just promo packs, parallels and penmanship, though. On average, each hobby box (five cards per pack, 10 packs per box, eight boxes per inner case, two inner cases per master case) will deliver one autographed memorabilia card, two autograph cards (including one as a silver-wrapped box topper), two memorabilia cards, six base parallels, three insert parallels and five inserts.

Distributors preordering 2018 Illusions Football will receive two free 2018 Kickoff packs for box pre-ordered. Each case pre-ordered will receive 32 Kickoff packs. 
Now, onto more of the product highlights . . .
