Upper Deck, come on they are getting more aggressively hostile, feels like you get less and less every year. Eventually these products are going to be one pack, no guarantees
Such a terrible product imo. To pay that much for a box and get 1 card numbered to 50 and no auto or pmg and a bunch of cheap looking inserts. Definetly will be saving my money this year for better products. Great video as always though man!
“Probably won’t get another”…. 2 Days from now Zeeree announces a 16 box case break series 😂 Even at the price point it’s still a disappointing release.
New metal universe is 'good' but compared to last year's set, not even close. Last year's set was easily the most fun rip. Cards like 'The Cheddar' , 'metal universe picks' and 'big men' kinda suck! And the faded rust (or dull gold ) on the Prospect cards do not have the same eye appeal as the previous year. I'm not gonna keep buying more hobby boxes just to try to get more 'neon icons' or 'planet metal' cards. PMGs will still be the main draw here, along with autos and Jambalaya. They obviously knew this set was a down grade from last year otherwise they wouldn't have cut the price in half for hobby boxes....that's the main sign of a let-down product. Too bad cause I'm a big fan normally of metal universe. Better luck next year! Thanks for the fun review and keep smiling 👍🙂
Upper Deck is hellbent on making their hockey cards the hokiest, most gimmicky crap ever. A set like this at $150-200 per box should be geared more toward adult collectors not kids.
Upper deck needs to notice this. Any box that isn't flag ship 100 bucks and over, guaranteed auto. I got a artifacts hobby box for Christmas and got two jersey cards and a aurum. At that price point, I might not get artifacts again.
I found it interesting that they were printed in Canada! Don't forget the base retro variant cards! I'll probably just buy numbered inserts from the secondary market.
Retail is just if you have 30 usd and are curious what they look like , I’d rather have a 150 usd hobby box than 5 blasters all day . This is priced lower out of the gate than last year. Last year I think lcs wanted around 300 usd at release . And remember kids , epack will crush the value of all but the biggest hits .
this product does absolutely nothing for me. i dont get it. PMG's. i dont get their appeal. been collecting again since 2017 and have never touched this stuff.
I pulled a Jeremy Swayman Premium prospects with what looks like sapphire background autographed. It's not numbered however I can't find any others online so I'm thinking it might be rare
I like the inserts Metal Universe has but will agree 20-21 looks like the superior of the two. I do like the "Pitter Patter" inserts but they shouldn't be 1:75 packs to pull
Kind of a disappointing product. If that Drysdale was the same Star Rubies design as last year it would be pretty sweet. That's one of my favorite parallels ever. Thx for opening Zeeree ***BELLLCHHHHHH*
@@sntspanish I meant from last year to this year. The price was a bit inflated last year. But the product was a lot less of a massive gamble than this one
I was in the minority but I really didn't like last years Skybox. This years is significantly worse, absolute crap. I hope this isn't going to happen to every set.
So i just started collecting and ended up getting 2 boxes. long story short I ended up pulling a redeem card. Base set RKES Silver auto t4 Cole Caufield. Should I sell it or redeem and grade it?
I loved last years skybox, can’t believe they’ve completely dropped the ball this time. The goalie, alon and prospects inserts all looked good and the parallels were fun. Not a single nice design this year and they’ve dropped the autos as well… The cheese Caufield was my breaking point
Not saying anything about content and value, but the cards look great. I liked how they went with bold picture choices as a lot of the players have various colorful or retro jerseys. The Lehner and Mac base cards spring to mind.
@felix yeah thats my concern. $170 and you need some crazy good hit, where as you can buy upper deck series 1 22-23 and even the base YG hits at least offset cost of box if not possibly pay for entire thing.
Upper Deck, come on they are getting more aggressively hostile, feels like you get less and less every year. Eventually these products are going to be one pack, no guarantees
Shrinkflation... they keep the price per box unchanged but just keep diluting every product.
My friends at savage cards here in quebec just pulled the caufield retro pmg 1/1, i was Watching the break live 🤣 crazy reaction 🤣
He has it listed for just over 203 000 on ebay, may be a bit high
It's amazing how its always the breakers pulling the best possible cards in the set on opening day, can we say shady?
@@canadianguy-nl1xw he's down to 99,999 already lol. It will go for under 10grand. I like Caufield but hes asking McDavid numbers and he won't get it.
hi Zeeree thanks for making me love hockey card again

The cheese cards are absolutely stupid looking.
Gonna have to get used to not expecting this year's crop of rookies because this is technically last year's product. Lol.

Honestly this is an ugly set. Down right gawdy. Never been a Skybox fan
Gold Cole caufield was pulled
Cards look like they were designed by a 10 year old with clip art. Gross.
From meh inserts like Amp Ups to some of the best looking inserts in the hobby, Metal kind of has it all.
Didn’t like 2020-21 and this isn’t any better.
Upper deck needs to notice this. Any box that isn't flag ship 100 bucks and over, guaranteed auto. I got a artifacts hobby box for Christmas and got two jersey cards and a aurum. At that price point, I might not get artifacts again.
Leafs should trade Kerfoot for Marchand
170 a box for universe now?! Man..... with no auto guarantee? Yikes....
Pitter Patter. Everything is the matter with that junk
If big man on ice where more uncommon, they’d be a nice hit, they look cool . Probably be an epack achievement card
Was excited for this set. Looks like butt now that it’s out
Pitter Patter cards are all healthy scratches on the last place team in the NOSHO.
Edit: Also, heck yes, keeping the PP GruGru streak alive!
Settle down
why don't you go ahead and take about 20% off there
Or AHL players
This one box was better than my case lol
I cannot wait to post mine! Biggest pull of my life!
i ripped 2 boxes today and hit an auto in each box. not a fan of most of the inserts, too cheesy. not sure i'll bother getting more.
I found it interesting that they were printed in Canada!
Don't forget the base retro variant cards!
I'll probably just buy numbered inserts from the secondary market.

These are very nice. Maybe not great value for cost but what is these days?. Looking forward to picking one up.
this product does absolutely nothing for me. i dont get it. PMG's. i dont get their appeal.

Metal Universe > Upper Deck Series
I pulled a Jeremy Swayman Premium prospects with what looks like sapphire background autographed. It's not numbered however I can't find any others online so I'm thinking it might be rare
not the best product this year NGL. inserts are awful. i miss ice.
I loved the Caufield The Cheddar Choice from Wi like myself sweet !!
Which would you recommend? 21-22 Skybox or 21-22 Artifacts?
Def disagree... Fun inserts... Fun rips.... Better than last years if you're an insert fan.
I like the inserts Metal Universe has but will agree 20-21 looks like the superior of the two. I do like the "Pitter Patter" inserts but they shouldn't be 1:75 packs to pull

I really hope fanatics buys out upper deck, this is getting ridiculous
I opened a blaster box, got the cheddar mcdavid😭😭 such a funny card. Also got Mercer prospects card
When even Upper Deck can't get the year right. Fleer Metal Universe Hockey was a 1996-97 product.
What a trash box
Skip to the 0:54 mark to ship over the " sponsored by " intro. Those packs were MESSED UP and the product looks all over the road,
1/1 cole retro pmg has been pulled already LOL
Saw this. Wild. This box went from great value to massive gamble. Go big or bust
@@SnipeCityCardsit was never great value, for 170 it’s a crappy product
@@sntspanish I meant from last year to this year. The price was a bit inflated last year. But the product was a lot less of a massive gamble than this one
Just ordered 1 for 60 or so from Dave and adams. Also ordered both series 22 23 ud hobby. Thanks for helping me decide what to get
Platinum portraits are 1:1,920 not 920. I pulled a makar platinum portrait from this year so I’m all done with this product for the year!
Meh. I know there are some huge hits and that the PMGs are wildly popular but watching this break it just looks like MVP pretty much...
I was in the minority but I really didn't like last years Skybox. This years is significantly worse, absolute crap. I hope this isn't going to happen to every set.
Pulled a Filip Gustavsson PMG Gold 1/1 in my box. Guess it’s not worth too much?
Bought a box and pulled a red pmg of adam beckman for the wild. Really thought it was Kirill for a second lol.
So i just started collecting and ended up getting 2 boxes. long story short I ended up pulling a redeem card. Base set RKES Silver auto t4 Cole Caufield. Should I sell it or redeem and grade it?
That might be the worst thing I’ve ever seen. I actually would want to open MVP over this.
Hey is this a canadian channel ? Im from new brunswick jw about shipping
Love the channel bro keep at it, I enjoy watching the openings
I loved last years skybox, can’t believe they’ve completely dropped the ball this time. The goalie, alon and prospects inserts all looked good and the parallels were fun. Not a single nice design this year and they’ve dropped the autos as well… The cheese Caufield was my breaking point
This product looks brutal. It's insane how much they watered it down. Can't believe people spend more than a hundo on this nonsense.
Purchased a box today, no pmgs or autos. Was my numbered big man on Ice considered my hit?
Price went up, no auto, and lots of shitty filler cards… not buying any of this
The reverse retro cards are jersey Variations.
This stuff was terrible the first year, UD messed up again for the release!@
ehhh, wasn't too turned on by this box... will see what else you get down the road here.
this might be my least fav product. not sure why but not a fan
Just opened one and my hit was a Kole Lind auto /399.
Lucky to get an auto. It’s rough out there.
Crazy all the die cut shapes of the inserts. Really is a fun product
Another box, another 10% return in value. Ugh
It seems like those pitter patter cards are inspired by the Letterkenny show
Worst cards I have ever seen. I would never buy that.
As always good sir you did a beautiful job on the likeness of Brad.
Why "The Cheddar" and not "Top Cheddar"... Weird
everyones getting em upside down ... lol
The backward cards are a variant or a retro jersey variant
Box should only be 99.99 this year
Like of you think Zeeree should break a case
That seemed rather underwhelming.
No Metal Hundo P? what a jip!
What happened to the prices flashing on screen? There’s no way that drysdale is worth under 3 bucks
it’s release day. NO COMPS
Interesting inserts this time around
Ud just wants to pump.and dump product
Today I bought a box of 22-23 series one box and pulled a Matty Beniers young guns!
Just bought a box I hope it's better than that
I really prefer the 20-21 configuration much better.
If rather get a better chance at a PMG and autos than as one of the inserts is called:
CHEEZZZEEE
Wow not a lot of value but cool inserts
Hey zeeree are you interested in buying a Trevor Zegras card?
It’s a Psa 10 young guns French parallel.
Let me know thanks for the vid
15 packs @ $170 CAD per box. That is $11.3333333333 per pack. LOL, I WILL be passing.
Those inserts are the literal worst
$54 on Dave and Adam’s
Not saying anything about content and value, but the cards look great. I liked how they went with bold picture choices as a lot of the players have various colorful or retro jerseys. The Lehner and Mac base cards spring to mind.
It's like upper deck is pushing the absolute limits of how little they can give you for a truckload of money.
first product of the year I am considering actually opening. your box was pretty unspectacular unfortunately
What are these inserts
I bought a case of this last week and pulled makars 1of1 gold ! So I’m pretty happy along with all the other hits
The amount of inserts and the die cutting just makes the product look childish
Blah!
Pulled a jambalaya earlier thanks to YMMBreaks 🙌
Nice video Zeeree, although it made me regret my preorder of the box :D shiiiz
These dont seem to have much value on market, look nice though
The Jambalayas and PMGs will though. Everything else probably not.
@felix yeah thats my concern. $170 and you need some crazy good hit, where as you can buy upper deck series 1 22-23 and even the base YG hits at least offset cost of box if not possibly pay for entire thing.
4:15 two danaults in one pack???
like the Reaves Pitter Patter.
Fantastic video and break was a bust
very nice rip man
great cards
I’m so early!
Nice
