2026 Impeccable WNBA FOTL: Malonga in Pink, Collier in Red

Two of Impeccable’s nine slots get a different assignment in First Off the Line. The 2026 WNBA FOTL box pairs an exclusive autograph numbered to nine or less with an exclusive base card numbered to four, within its usual five-autograph mix. Panini’s auction opens Tuesday, October 27, at 11 a.m. Central / noon Eastern / 9 a.m. Pacific. Dominique Malonga’s Pink Elegance preview and Napheesa Collier’s Red base card put a face on those two exclusive slots. Panini FOTL offer

What changes inside the FOTL box

FOTL still contains one nine-card pack. Panini’s per-box averages break down as one FOTL-exclusive autograph numbered to nine or less, four other autographs, one FOTL-exclusive base card numbered to four, two base cards or base parallels, and one special insert. Official FOTL configuration

The exclusive autograph occupies one of the five autograph slots; it does not turn Impeccable into a six-autograph box. Likewise, the exclusive base card sits within the three-card base-and-parallel allocation. Compared with the standard Hobby format, FOTL changes the numbering and exclusivity of those two cards while keeping the nine-card total. Hobby configuration

Malonga in Pink, Collier in Red

Dominique Malonga’s Elegance Jersey Autographs Pink preview puts a bright pink frame around a tall black-and-yellow memorabilia window. Her Seattle photograph fills the left side, with green-and-yellow watercolor marks carrying the uniform colors into the background. The pink creates a sharp contrast around the patch, then continues through the Elegance lettering and the thin outer frame. Below both photograph and memorabilia, a broad white signing area gives the blue autograph room of its own. Official FOTL Pink preview

Napheesa Collier’s Base Red takes a quieter route. Thin dark-red lines enclose her white Minnesota uniform, while blue-gray painted marks sit behind the photograph. Red repeats in her name and the Impeccable emblem without filling the card’s white space. Next to Malonga’s large pink patch frame, it shows how differently an exclusive color can work: a dominant feature on Elegance, a restrained border on the base design. Official FOTL Red preview

The October 27 auction

The FOTL auction starts at $2,000 per box, with a displayed $700 floor and price reductions every five minutes until sellout. Panini has not specified the dollar amount of each reduction. The floor describes the auction’s lower limit; stock can sell out before it reaches that level. Auction terms

Buying requires a Panini account. The limit is three boxes per transaction, and the applicable price is the price active when the product is added to the cart. A three-box order ships as a case; separate orders are not combined, and all sales are final. Panini purchase details
