Panini America released basic preview images and product information on Friday for its 2009-10 Rookies & Stars Basketball set, which carries over the modern design found in its football counterpart.
The set, scheduled for release on Nov. 18, will deliver two autograph cards and two memorabilia cards in each 24-pack hobby box.
The base set consists of 100 cards and there will be 115 gold cards as well.
Here’s a look at some of what can be found in packs…click for a closer look.

This looks like a great product id be willing to buy when it first comes out. I really like what Panini is doing, bringing innovative and new products to the market, and ive noticed a lot of them have a low SRP, which is what i also like, especially in a recession.

Their card attempts do look nice. Hopefully they do take the collector in mind and dont blow prices out the window.

So far, I'd have to say I'm on board. The first day stuff kind of looked "eh" but everything else seems fine so far. Keep it up Panini.
