How come all these breakers sponsored by whatnot are constantly pulling downtowns??? My friends and I buy probably 10 blasters a month and don’t pull shit
@@ryanknuth6915hmmmm 🤔 why do you think that is? So you keep buying them, sometimes you gotta accept what it is when people are in bed with each other…
Anyone who opens wax should know it's a losing proposition. You do it because you enjoy it and because you can afford to lose that money. Otherwise, it's an addiction.
I live in the panhandle. It’s actually insane how hard it is to find boxes. Everything gets bought up or back door by the workers. You’d be lucky to find one box.
Hey sup bro hope all good with you and your family I love the channel especially that you give the price of the hits I'll keep watching and you keep ripping some aces
I walked into target last week and it was fully stocked and I should’ve bought all of them, but I only bought six and the second card I pulled was a pink CJ Stroud but now I’m looking back at it. I should’ve just bought them all like everyone else does, but I would’ve opened them all not resold them.
Congrats on the AR holo! Like you; I had no luck in the wild. I..."was forced"....to buy on the flipper-market, but I got in at a "decent price" (comparatively speaking). Do we have any word on Megas....?? How soon,...where, etc.? I know they've been loaded on WM for _LITERALLY_ .... 2 weeks or longer!!
I've heard it mentioned by a couple UA-camrs and people in the hobby that Panini is hasn't even printed the Megas yet. They've clearly been delayed and I wouldn't be shocked if they end up cancelled.
@@huxbux Funny you should mention that. While I hadn't heard that 'till now, I _DID_ ponder the thought. With "ulterior motives", being the modus! I figured; perhaps with " *Wemby-mania* ,....Panini figured to allocate all of their...."printing efforts".....in getting NBA products out, ASAP, and (more or less) allocate all of the "leftover, time",...to NFL/MLB/etc. Granted, Stroud (and AR & Young to a much lesser degree) are...."chases", but if we're being _completely honest_ ; from a card manufacturing/product selling perspective,...even, _combined_ ,...they don't hold a candle to what Wemby is doing to the card collecting world! 🤞🤞🤞🤞 that *Optic NBA* (blasters/megas/retail boxes) actually release on time (about 2 weeks from now, if I'm not mistaken). I plan on ripping a _BOATLOAD_ of that, and there's *no chance* that Optic can be as cruel to me as Select [retail] has been!!
I bought 4 blaster boxes yesterday…pulled a rookie kings Smith-NJigba that’s about it…overall it was a shit rip sess…find myself disappointed every time…think I’m backing out…
😂 I finally found 5 at Walmart and got absolutely nothing of note! So depressing! However if thats the worst thing that happens to me this year I'll consider myself lucky! I really like your channel! Just the right amount of snark!
Nice video, I completely agree everything has gotten out of hand even buying retail isnt worth it now fat packs are the old price of blasters almost. To make things worse resellers will always sell because of the whatnot crowd taking advantage of people on team breaks chasing stroud and ar15 hits lol
Haven’t seen any at my local Targets or Walmart. Don’t want to pay double to the guys that buy them all up either as there’s not enough reward for the value at that point.
Optic is awesome but not worth it way to much think about it 24 cards 😂 is by itself insane if a product is more then a 1 a card it's bs let's be honest there prices need to drop big time
As a Wisconsinite my entire life I appreciate the Jayden Reeds! He has a lot of potential too and Love is The Guy! We're over the Rodgers Era, it's the Season of LOVE!!!
Great pulls! It’s hard to complain about a case hit and all of the big Rookie QBs. The optic silver holo may be my favorite parallel in all of the hobby. I wonder what the pull rate is, but my guess would be Downtowns are only in every other case at best.
Honestly, if all I got was the AR holo I'd be more than happy. I've seen case opening in years past with no DTs, so your right st best every other. Now begins the search for Megas. I did hear(can't remember where) that Panini hadn't even printed them yet.
Great vid! I had a crazy experience today. Went to the Dallas card show and I decided I would cave in and spend $60 on a Optic 2023 Blaster Box. The dude had at least 20 and told me to pick one. I ended up pulling a Patrick Mahomes Super Bowl Downtown out of my first Blaster Box of Optic ever. Last card on eBay sold for 2k. I’m getting it graded today and hope it gems. You also got yourself a new sub🔥
Nice pulls, case hit is always a consulation to the Downtown. Just the fact that you got your hands on the products is amazing. I'll see it on my retail shelves when the next class of Donruss is starting to come out.
Hey everyone! I finally managed to get my hands on some Optic. Time to go Downtown hunting! Enjoy!

@@ryanknuth6915hmmmm 🤔 why do you think that is? So you keep buying them, sometimes you gotta accept what it is when people are in bed with each other…
I will not pay the resale price.
You and me both, that’s what it will take is all of us putting our foot down! Keep fighting that good fight!
It’s criminal
how much money are you going to spend to find a Downtown? spending $2000.00 to a “chance” at finding a $1000.00 card is not a good return.
Anyone who opens wax should know it's a losing proposition. You do it because you enjoy it and because you can afford to lose that money. Otherwise, it's an addiction.
AR holo lets go!
I bought 3 of these....at roughly 40 a box worst 120 Ive spent in a while GARBAGE....this and prizm waaaaaaaaaaaaay overrated and waaaaaay overpriced
I can never find any good products here in Florida. Nice rip. New subscriber here. Cheers from Florida
Welcome to the channel! Happy to have you! I hear Florida is one of the toughest places to find retail.
@@huxbux yes sir it definitely is.
I live in the panhandle. It’s actually insane how hard it is to find boxes. Everything gets bought up or back door by the workers. You’d be lucky to find one box.
@@FookemRemind me never to move to Florida 😑 Seriously tho, I feel for ya.

Thanks my dude. Hope all is well with you. 🙏
Johnny manziel siting made my night lolololol
What up Hux
I found Optic! I'm great! 🤣
What does everyone think. Are the pink blasters or purple blasters better for pulling downtowns

Such fun rips with Optic Football and Select Basketball! Great video! 🔥
It's a great time for retail for sure
Yeah my Walmarts have nothing of any types of cards so yeah lucky you

I should’ve just bought them all like everyone else does, but I would’ve opened them all not resold them.
I probably would have scooped them all up to. Next week will be week 4. I wonder if they'll be on shelves again.

Don't blame you. Ripping wax is a losing proposition. It's fun tho.
Keep the chase alive!

I really like your channel! Just the right amount of snark!
I like that attitude! At the end of the day, it's just cards.
Where did u buy these blasters I’m dying to buy them nice vid
I lucked out and caught a restock in progress. Haven't had any luck online at all.
Didn’t realize they were hard to find my Walmart has some the other day but we’re a small town.
I live in a small town as well and have only found them once out of 6 restocks.
Walmart had these around $65 each online just the other day. One local shop was asking $85. Hard pass!
I'd never pay resell prices either. The only conceivable way is if I planned on holding it for 10 years hoping Stroud becomes the next great QB.
I ripped a case,got 1 downtown, 1 fire emoji, 1 blue sparkle and an autograph
Not too shabby. Guess it depends on who your hits were.
Nice video, I completely agree everything has gotten out of hand even buying retail isnt worth it now fat packs are the old price of blasters almost.

The hobby is in a place I don't think is sustainable long term. Maybe I'm wrong. The worm will turn eventually imo.
Seems like a good product
What does everyone think. Are the pink blasters or purple blasters better for pulling downtowns
I haven't seen any talk either way.
Been collecting since 13 yesterday old 49 now only made more debt for myself but hey still collecting love it
That's awesome! It def can get expensive real quick these days.
Nice pulls…I haven’t had the chance to rip any optics I will soon… just hope there is some on the shelves at my local Walmart…
If it hits shelves this week, gotta think it lasts a little longer.
Haven’t seen any at my local Targets or Walmart. Don’t want to pay double to the guys that buy them all up either as there’s not enough reward for the value at that point.
Def not worth secondary prices
#OPTIC THE BEST !!!!!!!!!
Optic is awesome but not worth it way to much think about it 24 cards 😂 is by itself insane if a product is more then a 1 a card it's bs let's be honest there prices need to drop big time
Ripping wax is generally never a good idea. It's money you have to be willing to lose. Wouldn't blame you.
Winner winner chicken dinner
They’re ok like the rookie looks
My restock was out in the first 5 minutes. Eugene Oregon card game is weak
It's brutal for sure
You are the only one who knows how to pronounce Luke Schoonmakers name properly...lol
Wish I didn't have to say his name as much as I do 🤣
Ayoooo! 🙈 I need to stay focused on basketball rn. Pls don’t do this to me… 💸
Resist...the...temptation...
That AR hollow was a pull!
Man panini wanted to panini us some more with those Rookie Kings 😭
They def could have made it a different pattern. Someone gets a good laugh out of it.
DAN MARINO!!! 🎉
The best
Nice rip! Yours was more of a success than my 4 blasters but there's still time! GL ripping!
As a Wisconsinite my entire life I appreciate the Jayden Reeds! He has a lot of potential too and Love is The Guy! We're over the Rodgers Era, it's the Season of LOVE!!!
The future is bright. That's going to be a rough division for years to come.
Nice rip. Every pack had a retired player lol
Not as bad as Mosaic was...I don't think...
Optic is a brutal rip from what I have seen. No downtown means no big money.
I felt like I did well. Between the AR holo, Young Purple, and Reed RK, I got back the cost of the boxes. I was happy.
You did very well. I was talking in general.
Quiet chad Ryland meme 😅
Yes, sir 😁 Gotta pay tribute to SLVR Sport and the best hobby meme of the year.
Congrats on finding some boxes. I found some but they definitely were all bought out I was lucky to get 2
It's a struggle for sure
my dt was first pack second card
Mine's in my next pack 😁
First! Awesome Optic
Thanks my man!
I got crushed on this product
Roll with those punches 👊
Wish I could find optic 😭
Hoping it hits shelves again this week. Maybe it'll be easier to find.
Great pulls! It’s hard to complain about a case hit and all of the big Rookie QBs. The optic silver holo may be my favorite parallel in all of the hobby. I wonder what the pull rate is, but my guess would be Downtowns are only in every other case at best.

@@huxbux Acme has been telling me that they may not print them, and my DSG preorder may get cancelled. Hoping that doesn’t happen.
I have not seen any of these at the store yet
They magically disappear as soon as they hit they hit the shelf unfortunately.
Nice vid man, thanks for sharing!

I'd say you picked right 😁 Monster pull! Hope it gems.
Is the music new? I like it
It is. I was using copyright free music from tunetank, but it was turning into a hassle.
I like all the old school players in the packs.
Why didn’t you pull a downtown! What a waste
I tried. I really did. I'll do better next time.
@@huxbux thank you, and noted
Go Bills!!!
Go Bills!
Congrats on all the hits! Lots of nice cards!
Thanks Terry!
The downtowns are such a cool concept wish basketball had something similar!
Basketballs have downtown but they come out of a much higher end product called One and One
Congrats on finding them. You did well for five boxes.
Thanks! Appreciate the watch.
Some good pulls! Desperately trying to find these in the UK!
Hard enough to find over here. Hope you find some.
Nice pulls, case hit is always a consulation to the Downtown. Just the fact that you got your hands on the products is amazing. I'll see it on my retail shelves when the next class of Donruss is starting to come out.
You're right. Finding it is a win.
Nice rip with some sweet hits! I just found some blasters this week at Barnes n Noble.
Nice find! Hoping to score a few more this week.
Nice pulls! Getting my 3 from Target at the end of the month
Goodluck!
Can wait to pick up some optic for myself, nice vid!!
Goodluck finding them!
Great find, would be happy seeing any on the shelves.
Hopefully this week 🙏
Hi, where did you buy them?
Found them at Walmart
@@huxbux I will try again today, thank you!
Sweet case hit.. congrats
Thanks!
THANKS BROTHER
Those Rookie Kings look good!
Good rip!
Sweet pulls ❤
Great hits!
Great vid 😁
“Put it on him”……DEAD 😂
Ty for your content
Awesome!!
Thanks for sharing! I always enjoy the edits you throw in your videos. Good stuff!
Thanks for watching. Just try and add something. There's a million dudes to watch open packs and read names.
@@huxbux well it shows, you stand out as one of the best for sure. Keep doing what you're doing man, thanks again!
That's so cool! 🎉
Nice rip!
Thanks for watching!
I’ve ripped 15… only 3 strouds total, 2 base & a My house… but I did finally pull my first Downtown 🎉
Congrats! Hope it was a good one.
Don’t buy secondary market. And leave something for the next guy. Hobby boxes are sitting at $800. Even worst then retail. 😮🥹
When the first guy for 3 straight weeks doesn't leave anything, I'm going to snag what I can. 🫠
Some really nice hits! It was a slow burn but they showed up! Your boxes are paid for my friend! Go Bills! 🦬
Very happy with the rip. I will say centering is terrible with these. The RK was the only gradable card imo.
