Sharp looking for sure, especially the Posey and Harper.

The no logos kills it for me, just sayin.

but the team colors being out of whack don't seem too bad in the samples.

Panini is just putting out absolute crap.

 

[subject to change]

The Posey card looks sharp. I don't know why they haven't revitalized Studio. It seems like the set would be a perfect fit for the logo restrictions. I think this is the first Panini release where the base card didn't look over-designed, which is a nice step forward as well.

I think it's a nice looking set. Not a fan of the En Fuego cards but everything else looks real good. I'll probably get a few Cubs players.

on the baseball side, i agree

Prizm tanked and cases and boxes are way below factory.

I am personally looking forward to Prizm Football, should be a good one and they just added Jumbo boxes for Prizm FB.

A minor point, but the way Panini is cropping all the player photos to just show their backs, or upper torso, to minimize the air-brushing is making all their sets look the same. It's killed the action photo in their sets, which makes Topps base set stand out. Panini and Razor really can't do action shots well - which is a shame because it removes the game from those baseball cards, and just makes it cards of men - not a sport. I'm not voicing that well, but I hope you get my point.

not sure it's tanked. 2013 Prizm baseball boxes are still around $90 and IMHO, to tank means boxes would be $55 or less. Now, they might be below factory but I don't know factory cost.

Definitely not paying $90 a box to build a set and I would consider it around $50 a box but I don't think they'll be getting there seeing how it's held box value since release at around $90.
