Couldn’t agree more, I just got back into this as series 2 were coming out because my son that’s 11 wanted to get into collecting cards. This channel has helped me a ton! Thanks a lot for all this info Stryker!
@@jerryhallon3704 yessir. I only watch Stryker. All others are in it for the business side. They aren’t down home mellow cool informative and fair like Stryker. Good t hear your son is getting into it. Great hobby If you find me in a group hit me up I will send you something for your son. Good day Jerry
I'm not a huge baseball fan anymore, but I do generally buy 1 or 2 formats of every Topps Series set each year just to check them out. This video was incredible for someone like me who isn't too familiar with the product. Thank you so much for this!
Thanks for the Video again. I opened 5 hangers last night and pulled a Heavy Lumber, True Photo Variation, a #/799, and 7 non numbered parallels. Series 1 Hangers were juiced, Series 2 looks to be the same.
Thank you so much for the breakdown! After this video I was committed to finding hangars. I found eight at a nearby Target and four at a Walmart. I found another place that had a couple dozen hangars, so I bought eight more. I'll be ripping all twenty soon. Hopefully, I will get something great!
Thanks for the breakdown! It helps to quantify things a lot more. I love the Megas for the foils of the 1989 set. Early on I pulled a Willie Mays orange foil to 25, then got Barry Larkin in orange foil as well. Only other one I got was Anthony Rizzo in a gold to 50, but I have a nice stack of the normal foils, and pulled a ton of the base 1989s and have almost completed the set. I luckily found some hangers online at Target last night, limited to 3 at a time, but got 3 Megas, too. Nearest Targets to me are each 90 minutes in 3 different directions, and hate paying that extra 5 bucks at WalMart. The Bowman blasters I got there did produce some nice hits, but that 5 buck difference was a bit too much. Now just to bide my time until that arrives. My Jumbo was pretty good, True Photo, Aqua Mojo, City Connect Relic, 3 gold, one each Aqua and Green foils, a Silver Slugger to 299, Baseball Stars Auto, but 3 Ellys inserts and an Elly Mojo Refractor, as well as Jasson Dominguez. Also did get pretty much every major rookie outside the SPs. Figure I got an average Jumbo. Hoping the incoming Megas delivers another Mega Stars; my first one got an Acuna to 75. Was amused when I saw no odds given for those. Still chasing a Heavy Lumber.
You had mentioned about SPs and relics from hangers. I pulled a Josh Jung Major League Material, Jackson Shourio SP and Kyren Paris Golden Mirror from the hangers
New Subscriber here and Stryker is the man and my go to! Just started collecting again and I don’t buy until I research from the man, myth and legend of STRYKER. Great commentary with his breaks. He educates on sets/brands and always has 🔥 content drops
I just pulled a red Mother's Day Eguy Rosario /50, a hot dog parallel, a royal blue color match of Rhys Hoskins, and some decent rookies from my first blaster. I had the worst luck with Series 1, but things are lookin' much better so far with Series 2
Thank you for your hard work of braking down the best way to buy for what you are wanting to chase. It really helps out!! Was pretty happy pulling that E. Davis autograph!! Good one for my P.C. and all the elly rookies cards. Have a crazy p.c of him. Still trying to chase a auto. Keep up all the good work in till next time!!
Love these breakdowns, best analytical view in the card game. This saved me a lot of money that I'd planned on spending on Blasters. Question: do you ever share out a view-only copy of your spreadsheet once these new product releases have been out for a while?
Love these breakdown videos. Wish people on ebay saw them and know what the real costs are. Too many give away cards. Thank you for your time spent doing this.
Love the video & the breakdown, my question is how many Jackson Holiday parallels did they make of each?? Great gimmick, but some #s would have helped a bit
Yeah, it's funny how that works when you're not opening cases full. My hanger had absolutely nothing it in, but the blaster I got my son had a golden mirror.
Rookie card collector here. I'd love to get an explanation of the various types of specialty cards...like the refractors and that. I have trouble differentiating all of them and recognizing the value.
Great video, thanks Mr Stryker! After your Fri break, I went to Target and they were restocking the card section! I got a blaster and one pack had an Adley Rutschman auto (All-Star) !!! Also a hot dog parallel! Sorry, I must comment on your mispronouncing Wembanyama's name. I also heard you do it on the breaks. No offense meant, but I know you want to get it right. Take care 😀
Just bought two hangers from Target after tax just over $14 each. Best pull ever for me. 1/1 #450 platinum Gunnar!!! 89B2-10 Henderson, no number but online only 1? 89R2-CA game used memorabilia CJ Abrams!!! Blake Sobol #521 not blue border but reflects-is that Royal Blue? A yellow #553 Yamamoto, with two yellows in each hanger! Base cards: Noelvi Marte, Heston Kjerstad, Jordan Lawler. I hated the saying hangers are bangers but sign me up and give me a t shirt.
I don’t like that Topps produces a zillion sets. I do like that have multiple formats for Flagship with each being slightly different. I’m not against buying a FAT, a Monster, a Fanatics Blaster, a Retail Blaster, a hanger and a hobby just to see how it all plays out after seeing great breakdowns like this. Maybe not multiple boxes of every format. 😂 Cards have proven to be relatable to the baseball I watch with my daughter. That’s a dark green spreadsheet cell of value to me.
Still kinda new to the new school rip game here. If I entered a drop at fanatics for series 2 and I didn’t get it, will they let me know? As far as I know I haven’t heard from them on the status. Last time I got a confirmation email letting me know I got a box.
I’m new to collecting and I pulled a 1/1 waves J.D. Martinez card out of a blaster box and I have no clue what it’s worth or how rare it really is. Does anyone have a clue? I’ve looked all over and can’t find anything.
I always look forward to your channel. I have one question. I always buy hobby boxes instead of jumbo, but is the ratio of relics & autographs 1:1? From my experience, it seems to be about 3:1!
I tell ya what, the last few years I’ve cared less and less for flagship. So much of it gets made, so many parellels, and they just never seem to hold value long term. Nowadays I feel like Topps chrome is the way to go for the base rookies of guys.
Once again. Only one man cares enough about the hobby and the people to spend the time to help US out. Really appreciate it Stryker. Good ripping
He's the G.O.A.T.....

The best breakdown in the game! I always tell myself to stick to singles...then I watch Stryker and have to test my luck with a box or 2
I never buy before I hear your breakdown. Thank you so much and hello from Grand Rapids!
i pulled a cowser golden mirror from a fanatics series 1 box, so i ordered 3 this time around.
I'm just getting into the Baseball collecting hobby. Judging from the comments, you are the man to watch. Hopefully I get I get some good hits!
I started last year and this is the man to watch
GREAT JOB AS ALWAYS!! LETS GOOOO!!! THANKS STRYKER
Awesome video as usual. I love these breakdown vids you do. You hit a nuke on this one. Series 2 was looking Blah and Topps really spiced it up.
Thanks for the heads up about hanger boxes! They were sold out of cases by the time I got your email but I snagged a few solo boxes.

Stryker your the man,thanks for the breakdown as Always much appreciated sir. All I could find today was blasters no hangers yet.
They have them on Targets website.
Pulled a Griffey Jr. Heavy Lumber out of the 1st Blaster box I opened.
Great breakdown. Thanks for all the work that went into this.
Thank you so much for the breakdown! After this video I was committed to finding hangars. I found eight at a nearby Target and four at a Walmart. I found another place that had a couple dozen hangars, so I bought eight more. I'll be ripping all twenty soon. Hopefully, I will get something great!
This was a fantastic find, thanks so much for compiling those resources. High on Series 2.
As a beginner collector, this video has been an amazing source of info thank you! I want to try a hobby box next🙌🏼

WOW!!! That was a lot of info for my little brain.. Some very good content, I will probably watch this again so it sink's in.
Love these videos! Thanks for all the input and content!
Great video Stryker , gives me everything I need to know bout series 2!
Brilliant video. Thank you for putting in the time. Really helped me to decide what format to go for.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for putting this together. I was waiting for this video of yours before buying. Great Info!!!
I really appreciate your efforts and analytics. You're the best!
Liked it. Commented. Been subscribed for years.
These videos are a must see!
Thanks!!!
Thanks for the video it’s a wealth of information. Glad I found your page. Just started my own page with my daughter. Thanks again
Thanks, Stryker! You did it again!
Awesome break down as always Stryker
You had mentioned about SPs and relics from hangers. I pulled a Josh Jung Major League Material, Jackson Shourio SP and Kyren Paris Golden Mirror from the hangers
Wow, glad I stumbled upon this video. Thanks for the break down , keep it going great job
Quality work as always. Thanks guy!!!!
New Subscriber here and Stryker is the man and my go to!

Great commentary with his breaks. He educates on sets/brands and always has 🔥 content drops
Thanks for the sub!
Always appreciate the breakdown! Crazy how much green is in Hobby. Will be interested to see if it's similar come update.
Stryker you're the man. Thanks again for this breakdown.
No problem 👍
I just pulled a red Mother's Day Eguy Rosario /50, a hot dog parallel, a royal blue color match of Rhys Hoskins, and some decent rookies from my first blaster. I had the worst luck with Series 1, but things are lookin' much better so far with Series 2
this is why Stryker is an absolute beast!
great breakdown as always!! twisted my arm…guess I’ll grab a couple hobby on top of the blasters coming in 😂
Great overview

Thanks for the info. I saw on some post that Travis Scott (rapper) has auto cards in one of these formats as well.
Thank you for the SSP info. I heard it first right here.$
Awesomeness 👌 as always Stryker 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Can’t wait to get my hands on series 2 💥⚾️ love these breakdowns Stryker !!
Glad you like them!
6 parallels out of a blaster yesterday
Great breakdown. Keep it up! Ever finish you 22' heritage series you were doing?
Love these breakdown videos. Wish people on ebay saw them and know what the real costs are. Too many give away cards. Thank you for your time spent doing this.
FYI... I used your link to order a hobby box. I had $8 in rewards credit, so even better!
I'm loading up for Chrome. I think it'll be loaded this year.
I did buy a jumbo of series 2. Got a Yamamoto HFA and was pumped!
Good stuff as always.
Nice!!
This is the STRYKER we love ❤️
Thank you!! Great stuff as always
What's up new to the hobby. I enjoy watching you rip. Plus you give out good information. Im just lost, do i grade some of these rookies?
No joke I got a Gold Holo in a Mega box from Fred Meyers. Also pulled a Bernie Williams on card auto '89 All-star, as well as Koufax /299 black.
Wow!!! I was enthralled the whole time. Doesn't usually happen with data videos.
Glad you liked it!
Love the video & the breakdown, my question is how many Jackson Holiday parallels did they make of each?? Great gimmick, but some #s would have helped a bit
Thanks for the breakdown! Of course I ordered a jumbo before I watched this. Ughhh
Will they have box that comes with the big card and pin and it came with foil card pack also. They had series 1 but haven’t seen series 2 yet
blasters feel so much better than the odds lmao I opened like 4 and got 2 autos, 2 golds, and 3 other numbered cards one of them a blue foil Yamamoto
Yeah, it's funny how that works when you're not opening cases full. My hanger had absolutely nothing it in, but the blaster I got my son had a golden mirror.

@@bobrideout6283 swing by a livestream and ask, too much detail to type out here. Thanks!
Rather save that cash for the chrome
Thanks Stryker!
No problem 👍

Hangers all the way!! 🍀🤘🔥
Hangers are Bangers! Right lucky Peter !
I got a monster box coming in a few weeks. Can't wait :)
Good Luck!
Great info, thanks !
"eggs, rabbits, hot dogs" words I never would've associated with baseball cards lol
can you make a video highlighting the best gold mirror cards of series 1 and 2? i just pulled the elly de la cruz one with him in the viking helmet!
So if u could only get one. What would u rather get. A blaster box or a monster box?
Thanks
Amazing video and content! New to the channel! Def dropped a sub! I appreciate your spreadsheet!
Thanks for the sub!
If you had to estimate the rookie SP what would be your best guess?
Lets goo , good sh*t stryker !
Great video!
Thanks!
Can I have a link to the spreadsheet with the price and stats?
Twice now I have been unsubscribed to ur channel… I would never unsubscribe from this channel.. anyone else have this happen ?
Does every player in the set have a True Photo Variation like they go a gold mirror?
Just bought two hangers from Target after tax just over $14 each. Best pull ever for me.
1/1 #450 platinum Gunnar!!!
89B2-10 Henderson, no number but online only 1?
89R2-CA game used memorabilia CJ Abrams!!!
Blake Sobol #521 not blue border but reflects-is that Royal Blue?
A yellow #553 Yamamoto, with two yellows in each hanger!
Base cards:
Noelvi Marte, Heston Kjerstad, Jordan Lawler.
I hated the saying hangers are bangers but sign me up and give me a t shirt.
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
Thanks brother
Just got a Junior Caminero Mothers Day
is the jackson holliday ssp card in all formats? hobby, flagship, blaster, etc.???
where my hanger gang !?!?! Also, i want a hot dog parallel.
What is the series 2 cards that are rainbow looking with circles of dots in the background?
Are the Holiday parallels in the Fanatics blaster as well?
No, just retail blasters
Hey striker do u know the print run on the silver pack cards? And the base silver pack autos? In past series the base autos were numbered /299
Thanks for the info and video! Where’s the best place to get singles other than eBay or is that the best?
With inclusions of Holiday, Yamamoto, and others... what's the point of having an Update Set? Are these cards classified as XRC, or actual RC's?
I don’t like that Topps produces a zillion sets. I do like that have multiple formats for Flagship with each being slightly different.
I’m not against buying a FAT, a Monster, a Fanatics Blaster, a Retail Blaster, a hanger and a hobby just to see how it all plays out after seeing great breakdowns like this. Maybe not multiple boxes of every format. 😂

I have a Luis Gil rookie on card auto not numbered. What might it be worth?
Where do you purchase a hobby box? Sorry, new to Topps.
Where do super box’s factor in?
Where do you get the “signature tunes cards”
Should i get topps series 2 or bowman 2024 or topps series 1
I’m new to collecting and I pulled a 1/1 waves J.D. Martinez card out of a blaster box and I have no clue what it’s worth or how rare it really is. Does anyone have a clue? I’ve looked all over and can’t find anything.
Got a hobby yesterday and 2 hangers today and the hanger had a short print Jackson Chourio. Hangers are really straight hobby is just too many cards
Where can you buy hobby box for $88? All the prices I've seen is $100-$110
Anybody know anything about this Signature Tunes Dual Autograph I just pulled it’s a Redemption for Kyle Tucker and Travis Scott?
I always look forward to your channel. I have one question. I always buy hobby boxes instead of jumbo, but is the ratio of relics & autographs 1:1? From my experience, it seems to be about 3:1!
In a hobby it’s about 3:1 relics
Thank you! I'll continue to support your channel!
I bought 8 hanger 2024 series 2 packs, I pulled tons of cool stuff BUT…. I got 2 golden mirror ssp.
