A Can’t-Miss Episode of Panini Unwrapped: 2012 Black Football (with Checklist)
Panini America’s Tracy Hackler and Scott Prusha sat down yesterday afternoon with one box of arguably the most anticipated new NFL product of the season: 2012 Black Football. In this must-see episode of Panini Unwrapped, the daring duo goes card-by-card through that box to provide a stunning preview of what collectors can expect. We’ve also provided the complete 2012 Black checklist at the bottom of this post.
But this is no ordinary Panini Unwrapped. Stay tuned till the bitter, bitter end to find out what happens when Hackler pays off a most unfortunate Australian Football League fantasy debt.
After you’ve watched the video and perused the checklist, we’re going to give you a chance to win some of the hits from this particular box (as well as a few boxes of 2012 Black Football) just for answering three quick questions as a comment to this post:
1. Who’s your favorite NFL player to collect?
2. What’s your favorite NFL team to collect?
3. What’s the single favorite Panini America NFL trading card in your collection? (If you can add a pic with you holding that card, even better)?
Enjoy the video, good luck with the contest and thanks in advance for your participation. Oh, and here’s the checklist: 2012 Black FB Checklist
The Knight's Lance 
1 Ray Rice
2 Baltimore Ravens (yes they are falling apart)
3 Ray Rice triple (patch football etc auto) outta Gridiron I believe its buried in one of my safes.
1. Eddie George
2. Titans
3. The favorite has to be my beautiful 2011 National Treasures Eddie George / Chris Johnson Dual Reebok Logo /2. There’s a photo of the beast on my collection sits at:https://sites.google.com/site/duceloner/
Thanks as always Tracy and Panini America team for the great giveaways.
1. Aaron Rodgers
2. Packers
3. My favorite Panini NFL card currently is my Aaron Rodgers /10 Gold Standard Jersey Auto. Not sure how to upload a photo of it here on the leave a reply section sorry.
1) Cam Newton!!!
2) Buffalo Bills
3) Cam Newton Prestige 2012 Jersey. Not the highest book value, but I love the way the card looks!
Right now favorite player is Brock Osweiler
Favorite team has and always will be the Broncos
Favorite single card is 2012 Emerald Quad Autograph Osweiler #’ed 2/5
1. Torrey Smith
2. Baltimore Ravens
3. Torrey Smith 2011 Limited Materials Phenoms Platinum Spotlight 1/1
1. The best running back in the league, Adrian Peterson
2. The Minnesota Vikings
3. My gold standard Adrian Peterson prime card, beautiful set, and Black reminds me of that set, looks awesome guys
1) Ryan Williams
2) Philadelphia Eagles
3) Has to be a 2012 Andrew Luck Certified Freshman Fabric Blue Mirror Card # to 49. Has a piece of jersey, football and glove. And it’s autographed. AWESOME!
1. Emmitt Smith!
2. I suppose by default the Cowboys, although I really only collect Emmitt at this point.
3. I don’t have any recent blockbuster Emmitt (stupid collecting budget), but I am a big fan of the Certified Immortals insert set. To pick just one card, I’d go with the blue parallel. Sharp looking card!
1) Drew Brees
2) New Orleans Saints ( WHO DAT!!!)
3) JIMMY GRAHAM 2010 PANINI CLASSICS RC! It’s the only Jimmy Graham card I own. There’s no card shops around me so I have to wait for the 2 times a year card show at the local mall to be able to get any Saints cards 😦
Aj green and bengals
nice looking stuff there tracy!
1! PATRICK WILLIS
2! 49ERS ALL DAY EVERY DAY!
3! oddly enough its not a 49ers card lol i was lucky enough to pull a peyton manning 1/1 game used pylon auto out of the 2011 black friday packs.
thanx again take care
Can you guys please make a special HRX card with the Vegemite Video on it? lmao. Anyway
1- My favorite player to collect is RG3.
2- My favorite team is the Redskins. Been waiting years for us to be this hot on the streets!
3- My favorite Panini Card is a 2011 National Treasures Joe Montana patch auto /15 as you can see here. http://i1327.photobucket.com/albums/u662/Anthony_DeMarco/121220-142452-0_zps9d6aae0b.jpg
“She just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich”
My favorite player to collect is Drew Brees
so of course The Saints are my favorite team to collect, and
YES I am a die-hard Auburn fan, but I can admit that Ingram and Jones were pretty awesome even though they went to that “other school” so this is my current favorite card
2011 Panini Threads dual patch.
https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.4151190545189.2144367.1446644138&type=1
1) Tony Romo
2 ) Dallas Cowboys
3) This Lamar Miller card came from a pack I ripped. It’s currently my favorite card because it’s just different. It may not get much book value love, or ebay love, but it’s a hat! How many hat relic cards do you see, I also love the square I got as it’s the first part of the Dolphins logo so I can pinpoint exactly what piece of the hat I have. http://screencast.com/t/e6lJnc3Owuq
1. Patrick Willis
2. San Francisco 49ers
3. Panini Gold Reserve Patch Auto of Patrick Willis
I hate you guys ( just kidding!!!!) I bought a 15 box case of the new Panini Black and being a Die Hard Giants Fan living in Eagles territory in Delaware I have not pulled a single Rueben Randle or David Wilson card in all of the 15 boxes. I have been a Giants fan ever since I was in diapers. I visit the Giants training camp in Albany New York every year and go to at leat 4 Giants games a year. I would love the chance to win that Rueben Randle Auto you pulled from that box of black!!! P.S that Vegemite portion was hilarious.
1. Who’s your favorite NFL player to collect? Going to have to go with my man Kendall Hunter, have a very large personal collection of him. I think he will become a stud!
2. What’s your favorite NFL team to collect? The New York Jets…. This year has a been very rough I believe we are going to have to start fresh.
3. What’s the single favorite Panini America NFL trading card in your collection? (If you can add a pic with you holding that card, even better)? From 2011 Playbook. 8 way patch #3/25 of LeSean McCoy, Adrian Peterson, Ray Rice, Arian Foster, Rashard Mendenhall, Michael Turner, Frank Gore, and MJD. The patches on this thing are incredible the MJD is even the jaguars logo. Such a nasty card I get scared taking it out of its case!!!
1. Steven Jackson
2. St. Louis Rams
3. RG3 Rookie Gridiron Kings Auto!!
Two Panini Unwrapped videos in one day!?!? I would love more of these days.
1. My favorite NFL player to collect is Andre Johnson. He’s been my favorite player ever since he entered the league.
2. My favorite NFL team to collect is the New England Patriots since I live in Massachusetts and have always been a fan growing up.
3. My single favorite Panini America NFL trading card in my collection would have to be 2011 Panini Timeless Treasures Rookie Recruits Materials Ryan Mallett. I haven’t gotten my hands on a lot of Panini products yet and though it is not an auto card, I really like this card because it looks very patriotic and even has a piece of his jersey on it. And, of course he is a New England Patriot!
By the way, those are some priceless reactions from eating the Vegemite!

…and she just smiled and gave me a veggiemite sand-which (little Men at Work reference there).
I used to love watching Australian Rules football back in the day. When the ref guy would come out from behind the three goal posts and give that little two gun salute move-just great stuff!
Anyway:
1-favorite NFL player to collect this year would have to be RG III
2-favorite team has to be the Eagles for my Philly sports card wall in my classroom. Despite their wretched season, still gotta stay true.
3-soounds hokey, but I think my favorite Panini Football card is coming on Christmas. I have it on pretty good authority that the Big Red Guy will be bringing some Panini Football Cards for me for Christmas under the tree and I think my favorite card is waiting his arrival and my pack opening fun that ensues. As long as he doesn’t come down the chimney since my wood stove is crankin!!!

1) My favorite NFL player is probably Tim Tebow
2) My favorite NFL team to collect might be New England
3) My favorite Panini NFL card may be 2011 Rookies & Stars local favorite Josh Cribbs Longevity jersey numbered out of 99, which I think I actually got in a grocery store :-O or the Kellen Winslow from the same series, THREE-COLOR swatch.
Then again, the 2010 Absolute Rookie Premier Materials Eric Decker three-swatch #ed out of 99 is pretty sweet.
Whoops, forgot about my 2011 Gridiron Gear Crash Course Urlacher & Adrian Peterson.

1) Troy Polamalu. Gotta love the tasmanian devil mode he can go into in a game.
2) Here we go Steelers, he we go!! 😀
3) It’s gotta be my Andrew Luck Rookie Inscriptions “Personal” edition that I won here on the blog. It’s my best trading card period since I never get that lucky in packs with autographs in any sport.
Thanks again for the great contests you run here Tracy, Scott, and the rest of the Panini crew.
Now, about that Vegemite video. Man, that was just like me when I had Tabasco for the first and only time. lol. Couldn’t stand that stuff and had to run to the closest water fountain to try to get the taste out of my mouth. Dang that stuff is spicy!
That’s awesome! I won a box of Prominence Football in September and had the best time pulling great cards. I look forward to winning an awesome card of RG3 or Andrew Luck in the future-but it’s still great to see other people winning these cards. Thanks Panini for being so generous:)
To be honest, I had no idea who auto I’d won in that contest till it arrived at my home. 🙂 I was one of 15 winners from that contest and I had “Luck” on my side in getting Luck’s auto. 🙂
BTW, this was the contest Jim if you wanted to see it for the fun of it: https://paniniamerica.wordpress.com/2012/05/21/how-you-can-win-during-panini-americas-recap-of-the-2012-nflpa-rookie-premiere/
And I agree with your comment about Panini for being so generous! That’s what makes them IMO #1 in all of the trading card land! Thanks again Panini!!!
Appreciate that, James.

By the way, the Vegemite part was hysterical! I’d eat a jar of that for a box of Black, though. I’m guessing it tastes like liverwurst mixed with salt, vinegar, and Thai peppers.

Tracy, thanks for the edit and another great contest! I have a 5 box box case of this stuff (panini Black) coming.
Favorite Player- LeSean McCoy
Favorite Team- Eagles
Favorite card- Actually it’s on it’s way from a break with Mojobreak..Panini Black Eagles 3 player triple relic /50 that they pulled for me. I have to say these Panini Black cards are no doubt by far the best football card anyone has ever come up with. The colors against the black cards stand out so well. So sharp and classy. From all the ones I saw in the break I can’t say there was even 1 card that was even questionable…Just a great job on those guys
Glad you like them, man. Our design and product development teams did a fantastic job on those.
1. Champ Bailey
2. Denver Broncos
3. 2004 Donruss LImited Hardwear Jake Plummer. 01/25 and the only eye from the Broncos logo on the helmet I have EVER been able to find! (On a side note, can’t wait for Stadium Stars in Panini Limited. The return of helmet cards!!!)
Got any pics?!?!?
1. Troy Polamalu
2. Pittsburgh Steelers
3. I would say it is my 2011 Absolute Terry Bradshaw auto jersey numbered to 10 but unfortunately I am still waiting on the redemption to be filled so until then I would probably have to say it is my 2011 Absolute Jack Lambert auto jersey card numbered 04/25. I recently started collecting again around March so I have yet to land a 1/1 but I think I have a nice collection. This is a pic of what I think is the top four cards in my collection minus the Terry Bradshaw redemption and all of which I managed to pull myself.

3. I don’t have a lot of new cards, but I did pull a Malcom Floyd Auto from 2011 Prime Signatures that I really like.
what time wood it be over the contest ??
1. Patrick Willis – Just an absolute beast (I played LB in school, and now coach high school LBs, so he is a player that I reference quite a bit for my kids to learn from)
2. Don’t really have a favorite team to collect, but I guess the Dallas Cowboys by default since they are my local team and I grew up watching them win Super Bowls. (not so much now…)
3. From back in the Donruss days: 2008 Gridiron Gear Adrian Peterson “A.D.” Playbook 2 color patch /25. Very cool looking card from a great player.
Here’s a link to the card (hopefully it works): http://instagram.com/p/G-ApziNuxA/
Dont worry about the other cards, its in the middle on the bottom row. Thanks!
I don’t watch football too often except but after seeing Russel Wilson have a great game in Toronto, he’s making me a fan.
I do root for the Bills.
Fav card, my Russel Wilson Hot Rookies from Fall Expo product.
Merry Christmas!
is the contest over yet and what time is it over????
My favorite player to collect is A.J. Green. I guess its no surprise with that being said that my favorite team to collect is the Cincinnati bengals. I have been a fan for a long time and remember as a child Breaking down and crying when they lost the super bowl to the 49ers lol. The orange and black patches of the bengals look great on a Panini black card. Especially when its a gold ink auto. Perfect match!
My Favorite card is a Jordan Shipley 2011 limited #d to 25. I know he doesn’t play for the bengals anymore but before he was injured he was an outstanding slot receiver. He is also a very solid human being and all around nice guy. Charter is import. I love this card because the Patch is beautiful. I will add the picture of me with this card as my profile picture. THank you Panini for an outstanding card and Black is amazing!
My favorite player to collect is A.J. Green. No surprise The bengals are my favorite team and have been for as long as I can remember. As a child I remember breaking down and crying when they lost the super bowl to the 49ers. I love the orange and black bengals patches in Black. With the black background of the card its a perfect match. Couple that with a Gold auto and you have a down right beautiful card! LOVE BLACK. Outstanding product.
My favorite card is My 2011 limited jordan shipley patch auto #d to 25. Though he doesnt play for the Bengals anymore due to injury he was an outstanding slot receiver. He is also a good guy with great caricature. What I love about this card is the patch is absolutely sick! I love it. I will add my holding the card as my profile picture.
Thanks again for another GREAT release and great product.

My favorite player to collect has been Frank Gore, since he’s been carrying my team for years. It’s becoming Colin Kaepernick, though. It’s nice to be able to see my team develop a future.
My favorite team to collect is the 49ers.
My favorite card is a 1/1 2011 Playoff Contenders Quad Ink Signatures of the 49ers (Gore, Crabtree, Davis, and Braylon Edwards… for some reason). I sold the Cam Newton rookie auto I pulled in order to purchase the redemption for this card. I didn’t know it was 1/1 until I received it!
