I love the nostalgic value on this product - interesting that the Hunter Drew retro has his first name in the back while the others have their last name
Congrats! That's def one of the best autos you can pull. I watched some group breaks. And while the inserts are very strong this year, I've seen a ton of subpar autos. You did well, hitting a high ceiling rookie.
Nice box budy, on my last pack wars with my daughter (its on our UA-cam channel) my daughter rip a pack with a Hardware AND a Red PMG all in the same pack it was magical. Love this product ❤
Im okay with the value of PMG's going down. I still love them and will still want to add them to my PC, especially with my favorite player David Krejci having one this year! Amazing pull btw :D
Sweet Box and yes you did rather well, I have two boxes coming tomorrow but today I picked up two blaster boxes of this 2022-23 Sky Box and I did rather well pulling two Slafvosky rookies one the retro and the other the regular rookie and a power Rookie and I got a Rossi Rookie and about 5 other rookies so the blaster was worth what I paid, $30. I hope when I open my two boxes tomorrow I do well. I would love to hit a McDavid Auto...Just Imagine!!!! Congrats on your box and I really like this year's design as I am going to put a set together. #Dryden
Some nice inserts, beauty Kuzmenko and Nate Dog. I agree with your Rantanen pick. About as consistently good of an underrated player you can pick. Nice rip. #Dryden.
I didn't even know they released a new Metal Universe. Really loved old iterations, but last years was a real dissapointment. That Palladium McKinnon looked real nice though. Maybe I'm a kid, even though I'm starting to wrinkle. :D
Sadly I agree, most of the products aren't worth it these days; I've just been buying singles for the PC. I'm hoping regular OPC comes in with a reasonable price tag, since that looks like it's been the most enjoyable opening experience of recent releases and I do miss ripping packs. Nice work with the new editing tricks, and congrats on the hit! #dryden
A few of the inserts look really really nice this year! Congrats on the Kuzmenko! Also, just as an FYI, the Metal-X cards are pronounced like “metallics” even though it doesn’t look like it. I’m friends with the product manager who builds this product (and many of the other hockey products) and that’s what he told me about them last year. 👍🏻 #Dryden
Thanks. That makes total sense. Too bad I just edited my second box, to upload tomorrow. Will have to correct it for my third/last one. (You're probably the only hockey card know-it-all who comes across as charming as opposed to Reddit-annoying.)
Interesting product for sure but I have to say the design of the base cards is odd. I have friends who wouldn’t touch these cards with a ten foot pole because of the holes design of the foil (they have trypophobia). I think my favourite looking card is the aspects with that off-white to bronze colour scheme. I never really got into metal universe when it was released, and with the print runs expanding, I don’t see myself buying any of this years’ either. Congrats on the Kuzmenko and great video as always!
Yeah that box made up for your last break. Definitely not worth the prize, but like you said, no box is nowadays. Cool product though! Thanks for the break! #dryden
You know what's funny about that last Stature box. Most of the comments said it was a bad box. But it was my best box in terms of non-auto cards: three legends (Sakic, Beezer, and Gilmour), a #/11 red RC, and a Peterka RC). I read every comment. So, I was thinking to myself: Do ppl judge boxes solely based on the auto? If so, ppl must be very disappointed in 90% of their box breaks. A lot of products don't even guarantee autos anymore. To its credit, Stature still does even though it's low mid-end (by today's price standards). In fact, it's the same price as Skybox.
Music got a little loud and SFX around the kuzko (drowned you out), personally didn’t like the blue flashes but enjoyed the flames and camera shutter. digging the editing skips too! Solid hit! #dryden
Thanks for the feedback Lucas. It's a release day break, so I spent zero time editing. It's just about getting it up, otherwise YT buries my vids (given my older subs clientele). But, music is completely dependent on your device. A lot of ppl watch on a TV or without headphones. So, they will barely hear any music or sound effects. As for editing choices, everyone has different views. Once I learn this new application, I will base decisions based on intuition. Until then, I will experiment. I was the first to introduce editing to box breaks, and watched all the millennial and GenZ breakers copy me. So I feel I can take some license.
@@Fultoncards oh 100% gotta get it up quickly, do what makes you happy and what produces a final product that you enjoy, the level in relation to the volume of your own voice is what I was referencing, not the overall noise level
Thanks Lucas. I get you. For some reason, without headphones and on a flatscreen TV, you can always hear my voice perfectly regardless of music or sound effects levels. With headphones, the background will blend into my voice, unless I alter the music mix with an effect. It relates to compression. Because I use music, I have always had to do a mix that is a bit loud for headphones but too quiet for TV. It also limits my music choices, as contemporary music is compressed differently. This is okay, because I choose dated music to play into card sentimentality. When I have received comments on sound levels, they have been conflicting.
@fuktoncsrds I was in the hobby during the 1990s and got turned off. When the market dropped was when I should have stayed as I missed some great sets during that time period. #dryden
Never really been a fan of Skybox design. The PMG cards are fun and I'm always a sucker for a good acetate, but as a legends auto guy there's zero appeal for me here #Dryden
Great looking cards. Kuzmenko hit.❤
As always, your positivity shines through and that's always what makes me click as soon as one of your videos pops up in my feed. Thank you!
I love the nostalgic value on this product - interesting that the Hunter Drew retro has his first name in the back while the others have their last name
So funny you say that. I don't know if you noticed, but I totally did a double-take and almost said Drew Hunter instead of Hunter Drew.
Nice Palladium card. Amazing auto pull. I pulled a Wyatt Johnston auto in my box. Thanks for sharing.
Congrats! That's def one of the best autos you can pull. I watched some group breaks. And while the inserts are very strong this year, I've seen a ton of subpar autos. You did well, hitting a high ceiling rookie.
@@Fultoncards Thanks. I was really happy with my box compared to some of the others I saw.

The acetates are fun and great auto! Fun rip.
SKYBOX metal really upped their game this year!! ---- love the inserts, not a fan of the base though, thanks again for spreading the love #Dryden
Nice box! Love the new intro and the editing!
Really enjoy your excitement for opening packs after all these years! Great vid and great pull on Kuzmenko auto!
Awesome kuzmenko pull. Congrats!!!!!

SICK INK!!! 💪😁🤘
i really enjoy metal. I'm looking forward to the price coming down! Nice auto pull! #dryden
Sweet auto! I’m just not pump for this product. Probably get some more Stature #dryden
I think you did rather well and the auto was a nice pull. I saw that the auto's are not a guarantee so congrats Fulton. Keep it up!!! #dryden

That natty Mac card is awsome !! #dryden
Obviously love the Power, ive never opened this set before trying to decide if i should....going to watch a few more breaks before deciding #dryden
I love this product, even though they’re likely printing a ton of it. No PMG, but a nice autograph and beautiful acetate card. #Dryden
solid box. Very nice Kuzmenko. As always great content. #Dryden
Nice auto Fulton. I didn’t know that I was seizure prone until watching your video today😂 #dryden

#dryden great auto and agree with the hobby saturation.
Anyone knows how to subscribe more than once to this channel ? #dryden
I love the intro!!! Nice box #dryden
I have the worst luck with skybox . Would that change if I got a case .?! Lol. You gonna go for another case of legends .? #Dryden
Awesome cards, It's fine they print more cards but they still charge the lower print prices. #Dryden
Still enjoying that new intro! nice auto #dryden
