2020 Donruss Optic: I picked these up because they were there. The Donruss design is a good one this year but Optic isn't my thing. And of course having no license is a big con. That said these aren't bad looking cards. I did have a nice pull which always helps. This Acuna Diamond King was definitely the highlight for me.
These guys add quite a bit of star power to the pack.
The insets are fine. Not sure what the Stained Glass insert is going for and Illusions is OK but not a home run.
Rookies get to shine here as well. Nice Yordan Alvarez lime green parallel. Not saying lime green is a favorite of mine though.
More solid pulls.
The inclusion of retired greats is always a plus for me and Rickey is a PC guy for me. This was a pretty good pack. I doubt I'll grab more of these but I know many collectors are big fans.

I'm not a fan of this product, but I'd definitely say this was a pretty good pack.
ReplyDeleteI agree you can't argue with my pull.
DeleteDitto!
ReplyDeletePlenty of star power that is for sure.
DeleteThe lime green looks pretty cool to me!
ReplyDeleteIt's actually not a bad looking card. But not a color I ever would have thought of using.
DeleteThis is one of my favorite Panini products. I normally pick up a couple of packs of Optic during a normal year. Unfortunately, this is not a normal year, and I am not fighting people for retail packs at Wally World and Target.
ReplyDeleteI got lucky. Small town Wal-Mart makes it a big easier and at times harder. This stayed on the shelves for two weeks. This week someone went through and cleared everything out.
