2012 Panini Rookies & Stars Football Cards

I like the mix of rookies and and star vets, but something in the base set design didnt just set it off for me. Maybe I wil need to try it again.

Great set, don’t get me wrong. What gets me is the Rookies and Stars Longevity boxes out there. I haven’t been able to find information on this issue. What is it really about? Just like R & S?

I always love this set, because to me it provides the best bang for the buck. I get god mix of stars and rookie, and I always get autos and jersey cards (sometimes more than 4 per box). For the money, I think this product has the best value compared to the competition in this price point.

The only reason I bought this product was because of the NFLPOD promotion but these cards grew on me. Nothing special but I like the combination of rookies and stars (hence the name) inserted in this product. I love to get rookie cards because you never know when that no name player makes it big. The price is right for this product. I bought 2 packs and pulled an auto/Jersey RGIII. Not bad huh.

Base cards have a decent design and are very similar to last year. Box only yielded one good hit with a Jenkins / James signed materials card /10. Price point should probably be closer to $75.

Rookies and Stars is a popular product that will get you 2 autos/2 memorabilia or a combination of the two. At around $100 a box, the 4 hits may seem nice, but you don’t always get what you want. That’s why this is getting an Average rating.

On a good note, you get 24 packs per box and there are many parallels and inserts. In this years product, one of the stand out inserts are the die cut pennants.

So, if you’re willing to gamble a little, then kudos to you. Maybe you’ll get lucky like I did with the one and only box I bought and pull a Robert Griffin III jersey auto /499.

This is a nice plain looking set for a reasonable price. Just purchased a retail “longevity” blaster as well. This can be too much of the same thing but a nice alternative when the LCS is far away. You do get plenty of hits but this product is not as demanded on secondary market.

Nice selection of inserts, both rookies and established stars. Like the look/layout of the base product. Might pick up some packs when in the local shop.

Bought the target version of these got a freshman fabrics Ryan broyles numbered to 49 prime but can not find any card or description like this online can some one help the card is number 3

Bought a 20$ box and the best pull was a A.J. Jenkins Rookie Collection Jersey

i havent made to the hobby shop but target has target only boxes that have four autos and or patches per box and ive been burnin them up. ive noticed since panini took over the amount of autos have declined. still looking for the hot boxes that use to fall one per case. so take a trip and see how lucky u get

Sorry about this. I meant Robert Griffin III, not Robert Luck. I think I put down Luck because I got lucky.

Not a big fan of R&S so my opinon is skewed a little, but that aside its bland bland bland. Like ramen noodles without the sauce packet. Nice patches are about the only thing I like from this set, and Im not a fan of any designs besides player pennants and prime cuts.

No Robert Luck cards for me, but I got an RG3.

It is a great product. Yeah, I didn’t like the thick cards that were put in to make you think you got something good. I went through a few packs and then found that thick card and thought it would just be that white blank card. I was wrong. I pulled a Rookie Materials signature of Robert Luck III #’d 170/499. I wasn’t expecting this. Probably my best pull so far this year.
