I think PSA 10s of these will become much more sought out in the future because the foil seems to show every slightest imperfection, but I'm a fan of the Illusions basketball product.
Lmfao seriously I'm done with buying any kind of retail I buy singles only now of cards I want saves alot of money. There puttin all the damaged cards in retail I know a worker there they even told me they do that on purpose all the damaged junk goes into megas, blasters, ect
Love the Rasheed Wallace auto hit 💥 He was a real NBA enforcer. He had that vibe, like if he didn’t get you on the court he was going to be waiting for you by the bus after the game.
Ya panini is ripping people off you can tell there just throwing all the damaged junk in retail products cuz they all have print lines and holes in them I was finding literally holes in cards like dents all over them in prizm, illusions all panini modern sets are like that in retail not sure bout hobby cuz I'm not dumb enough to pay hobby prices.
I ripped a $100 20pk retail box last night. I think I did alright. Really like the look of these. Cody Martin Trophy Auto Pink /5 KD base Black /49 Lamelo base Ant Ed base Sakamoto base starlight Maxey base Pritchard base Pink Trae base Pink Luka base Pink Denise base Pink Kmart Jr base Pink Zion base Pink Ja base Pink Bron shining stars Pink Tatum clear shots Pink
Don't like illusions but i like that they have clear acetate inserts; wish they did more creative and unique inserts like this with the other main products like prizm or optic
the difference between non-numbered parallels and base is the only issue i have. this years illusions is beautiful, and the inserts/sub-sets look INFINITELY better than last years. definitely not worth the $ like you said, but i would collect it.
Hmm Illusions not sure if im a fan. I think your right I think they should have pushed on with the other stuff. Also I opened a select Blaster today and got a Lamelo Ball Premier level and Ant tri colour within 3 packs.
Congrats on the pulls! I definitely wanna see current products soon instead of more stuff from last years class. We’ll probably have the same problem next year since they’re choosing to start so late
Definitely a nice looking set - I like the base cards a lot better than last year, especially the back with the white border. I do think last year’s Mystique acetate looks better than this year though! But man, that price is a killer. This would be a good buy at maybe $250, but definitely not $400. Thanks for the review!
4.75 / 10 hmm interesting!! I'm still fairly new to the hobby but basically ripped most of this year. Illusions has probably been my favorite product to rip (Retail wise) NFL Select has been rewarding and great NBA Select was SOO overly printed, i bought WAY too much and yet to pull ANY numbers or autos out of it. Illusions I've got 2 two number pulls, 1 auto, and a ton of GREAT looking inserts and acetates. (out of a blaster, mega, retail so far) I put them right up there with Optic inserts Just my two cents but each their own!
I have a video idea! Vid idea: Your best/favorite card you have for each brand and it could be more then one part like prizm, Donruss, hoops, optic, immaculate, etc Like this so Packman can see it!
Wow not gonna lie I was shocked when I saw you pull the Rasheed Wallace auto..really dope just didn't expect it lol would've been nicer if he was on a Pistons uniform but no e hit regardless bro..keep up the great work I absolutely love your channel..thanks for everything man
Auto definitely could have been worse, but the collation is too consistent - pretty sure I pulled the Wiseman & Young red parallels in the same box as well.
I really like Illusions but they get no love. This set is way better than the previous sets, but when are they coming out with the rookies for this year?
If you were to collect just 1 rookie from every set, how many would there be? Then how many variations? It seems like you could have over a thousand different variations of just one players rookie card. Stay safe from Newfoundland
Box is expensive got mine for $340 ton of vets in my box hardly any rookies 6 total Daniel oturu jersey signature ehh 3 red parallels avg vets but I did pull a monster LAMELO BLUE PARALLEL 14/25!!! so it made it worth it I guess oh and no Wiseman or Edwards for me
At least they didn’t use the same photo in the foreground as the background like they have done before! I just don’t think the nameplates look right with the rest of the card.
Hey pack man I just pulled a gold standard jalen green auto game worn jersey card out of /99 should I hold on to it or sell it? Also I pulled a /149 red Evan Mobley out of the 2021-2021 collegiate basketball hobby box
Cool product, but too expensive. Panini needs to reevaluate their prices now that the market has cooled off. Obviously cards are still doing good, but not at the insane levels they were last year when I'm sure Panini planed all these products out. Hope they make some adjustments soon.
Someone at panini card printing place said they put all the damaged print line,dented damaged cards in retail to pawn them off instead of throwing them out so they know they selling people junk products.
Yeah, I should have bought two mega boxes from Walmart. Not the best product I guess. I still have never pulled a numbered card. Lol. I have terrible luck. You pulled like 4 numbered in one box. Also an auto. Kind of bummed I haven’t pulled a numbered card yet

I like it! Are you looking to sell or giving away that Maledon rookie? I'm a Thunder fan and would love it.
I think PSA 10s of these will become much more sought out in the future because the foil seems to show every slightest imperfection, but I'm a fan of the Illusions basketball product.
The only “Illusions” here is how $400 disappears before your very eyes.
LMFAO
Total waste.
Mosaic is worth the keesh fo sho
Lmfao seriously I'm done with buying any kind of retail I buy singles only now of cards I want saves alot of money. There puttin all the damaged cards in retail I know a worker there they even told me they do that on purpose all the damaged junk goes into megas, blasters, ect
The only bad thing about illusions is unless a card is numbered you can’t tell the difference between the base and parallels
True, they need to do better job at distinguishing. I pulled a yellow numbered and didn't realize it was yellow lmao.
The problem isn't the cards. It is the price!!! Cards look nice! $400 is double what it should cost!
I thought he said he paid $150. $400 was the resale value online scalpers
@@traviscoates6878 $150 is the suggested retail price. Panini sold it for $350 plus tax on their own site. Hobby stores around $400.
Love the Rasheed Wallace auto hit 💥
He was a real NBA enforcer. He had that vibe, like if he didn’t get you on the court he was going to be waiting for you by the bus after the game.
Panini laughing all the way to the bank!

Love that Rasheed! Ball Don’t Lie!
Yeah we need to see the wiseman, otoru, azibuke, and the goat squad collectios

Don't like illusions but i like that they have clear acetate inserts; wish they did more creative and unique inserts like this with the other main products like prizm or optic
I like it, a change of imagery. My friend likes the Illusions Acetates. I prefer the Clearly Donruss.
Solid vet auto!! Finally seeing some sheed autos is so nice as he didn’t really sign much during his playing career
Behind luminance, this is my favorite set. It looks so good.
I think it’s ridiculous that they are still releasing last years sets when we are already a month into the new season
Thank you for sharing Packman cards! That Malachi Flynn /10 is 🔥🔥🔥
Letsss gooooo raptorssss!!
Thanks!!
Illuminated and Double Vision are cool again this year, but the acetates last year were hands-down better.
i like the design, always have...paper card value tho...i need that Flynn! Wiseman is at least on the right team to be a badass...
I love the Illusions design. Good looking cards.
Jesus, this years illusions looks infinitely better than last years.
I laughed soo hard when you said lamelo! That’s weird.. for me? Hahahaha
😂
You asked what we thought right before pulling the Wiseman /99. I was thinking man this is a bust and then nope. Lol.
Illusions looks pretty great this year ngl
I love illusions it’s my favorite product last year and maybe this year, SO HYPED!!
PackMan🐐!! Great video thanks for running to the LCS and grabbing one. 😎
Thanks for watching!!
Sick Sheed Walrus auto!
Thanks!
What would u say is the best value basketball and football to get right now at resale price?
Zeke Nnaji is actually playing well right now
I really enjoyed last years Illusions set also. Very beautiful set.
the difference between non-numbered parallels and base is the only issue i have. this years illusions is beautiful, and the inserts/sub-sets look INFINITELY better than last years. definitely not worth the $ like you said, but i would collect it.
Liked the clear cut cards a lot actually but nice Wallace auto as well great video thanks for sharing !
Thanks for watching!
YEah Wallace is that guy!
Hmm Illusions not sure if im a fan. I think your right I think they should have pushed on with the other stuff. Also I opened a select Blaster today and got a Lamelo Ball Premier level and Ant tri colour within 3 packs.
Congrats on the pulls! I definitely wanna see current products soon instead of more stuff from last years class. We’ll probably have the same problem next year since they’re choosing to start so late
@@PackmanCards 100% hopefully the product is cheaper next year.
I want that sheed auto!
I like illusion, but they all look alike which is annoying. Nice to get the big 3 rookies. I’ll wait for retail prices.
i love the way these cards look!
I think this set is beautiful! Especially the coloured parallels
Might as well buy a panini black box for this price, definitely passing on these.
Definitely a nice looking set - I like the base cards a lot better than last year, especially the back with the white border. I do think last year’s Mystique acetate looks better than this year though! But man, that price is a killer. This would be a good buy at maybe $250, but definitely not $400. Thanks for the review!
Yea I think it’s a solid set but $400 for this one is way too much. Thanks for watching as always!
@packman…. Was hoping you could help me make a decision. Would you rather have 1 20-21 Prizm Hobby box or 2 Prizm Fast Break boxes? 🤔
I’d rather have the hobby personally
4.75 / 10 hmm interesting!!
I'm still fairly new to the hobby but basically ripped most of this year. Illusions has probably been my favorite product to rip (Retail wise)
NFL Select has been rewarding and great
NBA Select was SOO overly printed, i bought WAY too much and yet to pull ANY numbers or autos out of it.
Illusions I've got 2 two number pulls, 1 auto, and a ton of GREAT looking inserts and acetates. (out of a blaster, mega, retail so far) I put them right up there with Optic inserts
Just my two cents but each their own!
I got 3 megas best card was $1.50 💀ripoff then they all had print lines and dent/holes in them stuffs fire starter at best
Excited to see you rip this!
I like it. 👍 Cool looking cards. 💯 Congratulations on your hits and thank you for the product review Packman. 👌
Thanks for watching!
I have a video idea!
Vid idea: Your best/favorite card you have for each brand and it could be more then one part like prizm, Donruss, hoops, optic, immaculate, etc
Like this so Packman can see it!
Nice Melo and Ant, set looks pretty cool ngl I like the acetate inserts
Just looked at the auto checklist and oof, you got one of the better ones. There are some real duds on there
Tons of illusion 2019 were opened via group breaks here in the Philippines last 2020. Lol.
Wow not gonna lie I was shocked when I saw you pull the Rasheed Wallace auto..really dope just didn't expect it lol would've been nicer if he was on a Pistons uniform but no e hit regardless bro..keep up the great work I absolutely love your channel..thanks for everything man
Thanks a lot! I was really surprised by the auto, but definitely happy with the pull!
Auto definitely could have been worse, but the collation is too consistent - pretty sure I pulled the Wiseman & Young red parallels in the same box as well.
I think its a solid product
I wish there were cards that had the players collage jerseys that would be dope
draft picks
chronicles draft
That Zeke was a bronze parallel I think right?
Yea I think so
Love illusions!
Hey packman. My thoughts on this is its a nice set. In my opinion this years illusion cards and designs are better than last years.
I think all of the panini cards improved from last year's edition. IMO. Probably because of the increase number of collectors
I like the look of the cards
I really like Illusions but they get no love. This set is way better than the previous sets, but when are they coming out with the rookies for this year?
I think it’ll be around February-march but not 100% sure
How you get this box?? Walmart target? Or lcs??what are they going for??
Think $400 is too steep but you did get good # of the good rookies!
One of my favorite sets! Illusions has a really great design! Looking forward to retail. Congrats on your hits and thank you for sharing brotha ✌️
Thanks for watching!
Don't buy retail illusions trust me on this 💀💀
It looks cool !
I have a lebron James gold illusions card is that rare at all instead of having a purple glare or green glare it’s like orange gold ?
If you were to collect just 1 rookie from every set, how many would there be? Then how many variations? It seems like you could have over a thousand different variations of just one players rookie card. Stay safe from Newfoundland
I thought that said Michael Flynn and as a wolves fan I pooped.
I pulled a 1 of 1 Steph yesterday.
Congrats!!!
It's a nice looking product.
But...400 usd per box?
Panini are crazy with there prices now man.
Box is expensive got mine for $340 ton of vets in my box hardly any rookies 6 total Daniel oturu jersey signature ehh 3 red parallels avg vets but I did pull a monster LAMELO BLUE PARALLEL 14/25!!! so it made it worth it I guess oh and no Wiseman or Edwards for me
Congrats on the big hit!
Yo is there any chance I can buy that Sexton garland double vision?
At least they didn’t use the same photo in the foreground as the background like they have done before! I just don’t think the nameplates look right with the rest of the card.
Card look cool 🔥
Are the rookie cards in this set worth anything?
Looks like a nice product
The cards look so nice! But it is too expensive and feel like price would even higher for 21-22...😥
The only illusion is the MSRP price.
What were the two white cards you pulled?
Where do u normally get ur boxes from??
Pack Man great vid it was awesome
Thanks!!
Hey pack man I just pulled a gold standard jalen green auto game worn jersey card out of /99 should I hold on to it or sell it? Also I pulled a /149 red Evan Mobley out of the 2021-2021 collegiate basketball hobby box
junk wax era coming if not already, panini maximizing the heck out of their expiring license
How was this distributed? He mentioned a LCS, but not sure what that means…
Local card shop
Panini got mad that Topps was winning the confusion game with their Gold Label. Lol. Great video as always, not sure I'm a fan of the set though.
😂😂
Cool product, but too expensive. Panini needs to reevaluate their prices now that the market has cooled off. Obviously cards are still doing good, but not at the insane levels they were last year when I'm sure Panini planed all these products out. Hope they make some adjustments soon.
The sets, prices and print runs have probably already been planned for over the next year
@@boblaw4483 probably, hope there is still some time though to reevaluate some of the future products
Not sure why they skimped on the hits - 2020 Illusions Hobby Football at least had 3 Autos (1 Encased) and 2 Mem
Someone at panini card printing place said they put all the damaged print line,dented damaged cards in retail to pawn them off instead of throwing them out so they know they selling people junk products.
If you were to buy a product on a $500 budget would you buy multiple mega boxes or go for the hobby boxes
Need some of This at least a couple retail blasters megas
Do they make blasters and megas of this product?
Sad when I saw you put Seth in the 3rd pile lol.
cool product I'm not the biggest fan of illusions. I think its kinda unnecessary since they still have so much make for this season.
Yeah, I should have bought two mega boxes from Walmart. Not the best product I guess. I still have never pulled a numbered card. Lol. I have terrible luck. You pulled like 4 numbered in one box. Also an auto. Kind of bummed I haven’t pulled a numbered card yet
Love your channel man
Thanks!
Much better design than last year but 400 is too much
Will you be opening the 20 pack walmart retail exclusive box for 99.99?
Is it worth it ?
@@redpillg566 yeah /5 Rookie auto chance out of these. Compared to /25 In blasters
Product looks good but not sure about that price.
Congrats on 150k!!!!
Thanks!!!
Why wasn't the Lamelo the auto :)
I wish!
@@PackmanCards It was good box still Packman
It's funny you said John Wiseman instead of James Wiseman LOL.
Wiseman!
packman = goat
🙌🏼
Love the content 🙏
Thanks!
I'm going to pass at $400.
My local shop has them at $251/box !
Pretty good deal!
illusions is an underrated product, beautiful cards
Deym! Let’s go bro!
