2011-12 Playoff Contenders

Description

2011-12 Playoff Contenders is a 50-card set released to brick-and-mortar Hobby stores on February 22nd, 2012, and to internet-based outlets a week later. Like 2011 Donruss Elite Extra Edition, the set is focused primarily on prospects and draft picks with a smattering of Major League players. Over 100 draft picks and prospects signed autographs for the product.

Panini has marketed Contenders as a year-2011 product. However since it was released in late February, 2012, BCP does not consider it a "2011" product.

Each 24-pack Hobby box is expected to yield six autographs -- two of which are on-card.

Please note, that this set is NOT licensed by MLB Properties and does not feature any MLB logos. As such, there are no "true" rookie cards.

Distribution

Hobby: 24 packs per box, five cards per pack (Panini MAPP-Mandated Price: $135/box). 12 boxes per case.
