Took my son and got four retail boxes at Dicks at open.

First box was a massive dud. Best pull was a Wemby base.

4 blaster boxes arriving today. I did see a video yesterday of a guy pulling an auto and 2 numbered cards from a blaster. I'm never that lucky.

As interesting as the pulls are for Youtubers with large-ish audiences it makes me wonder if there's more to it? Seems odd

I wouldn't be surprised if there's some funny business with some of the larger breakers who pull crazy stuff. Not sure how big this YouTuber was. His other 3 boxes were pretty bad.

It's way easier when you realize the big breakers are just paid marketing for Topps.

The big breakers also have much greater access to the Breaker's Delight boxes that tend to be loaded with hits. Even in the rare cases where you can find the Delight boxes online or at a card shop, they are priced such that only the highest income collectors can comfortably purchase them.

Second box went a wee bit better than the first for my kiddo.

Hit a Cooper Flagg rookie refractor moment in time. Sweet card.

Mavs are offering up a large bounty for the Flagg debut patch card. No one should take what they are offering, but it's kinda cool.

Have two mega boxes waiting for me at home. Still chasing the retail hit high of pulling a Dak Prescott Auto to 50 out of a Topps Chrome hanger box from Dicks during opening week

Opened a few Mega's this evening. I pulled a big hit with a Fanatical Cooper Flagg. Other hits were in the $5-$10 range. Got a purple raywave Rui Hachimura /75 that would have been really nice if it was LeBron or Luka.

Pulled a Dylan Harper X fractor and a Risacher Chromograph auto. Could have been worse

Asking more for this than they asked for Luka.

Man, congrats on yalls pulls. I haven't pulled a Cooper since the Flagship release. Terrible luck.

4 blasters opened and our "best" pulls are a VJ refractor and a Scoot Henderson auto. No Kons or Coopers.

Posting my "best" 4 Jordan inserts...all pulled from packs by me or my brother. I've still never graded a card but may need to with these so my boys can sell easier once I'm gone.

bought one more blaster of topps chrome before I hang it up. Pulled a Lebron Greem basketball parallel to 99.

That Ultra Scoring Kings is going for WILD money right now. Like dumb money. Literally in the New York Times money.

Yeah, I had a tough go of it as well. 4 Megas and 10 Blasters didn't result in much:

- 2 rookie sticker autos, no one of note
- 3 numbered cards, nothing of note
- No Dylan Harper, 1 Cooper base, 1 Kon parallel (though 4 VJ's and 4 Ace's, in both cases 3 base cards and a parallel).

Best cards were probably the Cooper base and a Wemby insert refractor (non-numbered). That's how it goes sometimes. Might try to get a couple of the Fanatics exclusive Megas when they release, but otherwise don't really plan on buying much more from this set.
