The Panthers did not exist until 1995, which makes the Retro Collection premise an interesting one for this franchise. There is no 70s or 80s Panthers history to draw from, so this design does something different, it takes the blue and black identity and translates it through a vintage lens, arriving at a cream gloss shell, team-colored face mask, and three-color top stripe that reimagines a modern expansion team in the visual language of an era it never played in.

The team logo on the right, the team name on the left in a retro-inspired font. At approximately 5.5 inches tall it is a conversation piece as much as a collectible, and one of the more creatively interesting entries in the Retro Collection for exactly that reason.

Built on a mini Speed shell with an S2BD-SW-SP face mask, 4-point chinstrap, and official paint and decals throughout. For the Panthers fan who appreciates design as much as the game.
