Prizm UEFA Euro 2016

[dantzig]

Seems there's already a pdf sheet with lots of information about the new Prizm collection for the biggest football competition this year

Estimated release date: May 4th

Crickey, that looks nice!!! I better start saving now cos this is gonna be shit hot.

Prizm WC2014 is probably the best card collection ever released, if Panini can better that one then they are laughing all the way to the bank.

One thing the Yanks have to get rid of is the usage of "goaltender" FFS when will they learn?

Hungarian auto card! I can't believe it...

 

[LeeWest1865]

Don't want to wish my life away - but I can't wait. Still a little disappointing that there's no guarantee of a signature card in each box, but it's interesting that Panini America is releasing a 'soccer' set without North American content. I guess they must have sold boat loads of World Cup Prizm in Europe.
Have already emailed the UK distributors to see if they are stocking them, and as @LFC1892 says time to start saving the pennies

 

[LeeWest1865]

Had a response from UK distributors (below).
"This release will be from Panini America; I’m sure we will have access to the collection at some point but we do not have any pricing on this as it stands unfortunately. I will keep you updated with any information I receive about this collection."

As and when I get any info from them I'll post on here.

 

[LeeWest1865]

A small piece of info I saw on Cardboardconnection, which says that there will be a minimum of 10 players (I presume they mean base cards) per country.

 

[LFC1892]

That sounds pretty decent, bet none here can name 1 Albanian or Icelandic player(Sigurdsson from Swansea).

Base set is 250 so some teams will have 11 players or more, some will have 10.

Very nice, Panini America really have picked up on football (or soccer as they call it). World cup prizm, Donruss, Select and now Euro Prizm.

Distributors seems much more informed than Panini... Ask them about the collection, they never heard of.

Oh yeah? I can't, but Google can: Cana, Berisha, Hysaj, Balaj, Xhaka, Gashi, Cikalleshi, Lenjani, Mavraj, Sadiku and so on

Honestly, I remembered one without checking: Gashi, because of his sticker in CL 2014/15 But even though Portugal played against them in the qualification, I couldn't remember more... The only thing I remember was they had a good goalkeeper, a good forward and a very good teamwork.

Iceland I remember a guy with a huge name (as usual in Iceland) from Olympiakos (again thanks to stickers and cards) and of course, Gudjonhsen from his times in Chelsea.

 

[LFC1892]

Haha yeh GASH is slang in England for rubbish or bad so I now remember GASHI although didn't realise he was Albanian.

 

[LeeWest1865]

Yes

 

[LeeWest1865]

For the benefit of @LFC1892 - Iceland only got one page in the album, so I don't think the publishers gave them any chance of qualifying.

Do you have a pic about Hungary's page?

 

[LeeWest1865]

And for the benefit of @mszaby

@LeeWest1865 those stickers looks retro stickers, around 1990

 

[LFC1892]

@LeeWest1865 that's brilliant, thanks for showing it. Didn't even know they did one. I only have the Panini one but it didn't have all the teams and it's proving hard to finish.

 

[LeeWest1865]

They did a qualification album for the 2014 WC with nearly 1,000 stickers in it! School Shop are well known for flaunting copyright and licensing and just getting on with it. It's much more interesting than the lazy Panini rubbish. Every country featured, even Gibraltar!
I fully expect them to do an album for the finals too, and am hoping to get an email from a friend in Serbia to say there's a parcel heading my way
