I always thought it was crazy that they spend more time and effort to ship the cards out worse, save the time with cardboard and tape and just buy a toploader
This set does NOT have relics (it has some auto relics but no base relics). The /10 Hogan is great. And your autos were both parallels so this is better than a lot of them. I agree though redemptions suck. I have had to buy a lot recently since I collect Austin Theory. I do hope he signs them fast though. I also have a gold McCool auto from Impeccable 2022 that I redeemed like a month before it was going to expire. So I am kinda worried about that one even though it was valid and I've been waiting the longest for it.
Bout time, huh? Haha. You knew it was coming eventually, but still... nice pull. I have two more boxes of 2024 and a box of 2021 coming. Looking forward to cracking those!
8:17: Sonya is a blue parallel. You gotta go a little slower to give yourself time to scan to see if the front has a serial number/special colored foil. As for the new Wyatt stuff I'm TOTALLY with you that it is DOA. At least for me. I know some really like stuff like this but it's not my cup of tea and I just know I'll be vindicated when the group is never mentioned in 6 months tops. As for Wyatt's last run before his untimely death, I also was not a fan. Sure the return at Survivor Series was a nice moment but then he just did nothing. His one match, that ended up being his last one, was bad too. I don't know what would have happened had he not shockingly died but sorry not sorry just because someone dies does not mean I have to instantly be a fan of everything they ever did. I only really liked Bray pre-Firehouse Fun House/The Fiend. After that he was just too much for me and I always FF'd his stuff on TV. Now getting back to your break... Your two autos were good for the most part. Liv is always a hot one to hit and yours is /49. Michael Cole not so much but hey his tiny auto could look worse (I've seen some bad ones) but the sticker on this (25/25) one is good. I mean yeah he did apparently want to sign a Michelle McCool (love her as well fyi) auto but he tried to fix it lol. I also am a fan of that announcer subset. I'm a huge Barrett fan so it gave me the chance to add to his auto collection. I have a (/25), a (/49), and the retail red autos so far. Still need a base and a gold. One day! I am sad though that for some reason Barrett is ONLY on the auto checklist for Voices of the Ring and not also on the base set for it. So that means I don't get to add to his collection even further with all the parallels for that same card (just no auto on it). Is your wife going to be the guest breaker lol? Or are you still in the dog house for eating her shit?!
Hay u kno wut I leik ur big words . im jase doffman but i have this friend joshua dufurrena- U remind me of him- His full name u ask so u can locate him? Well leik i said in some earlier sentence- that would be joshua dufurrena- LEIK u.. he discusses thyme - I wont force u to sub but I think u will wunt to when the thyme comes.
"Well, if you could see this card, maybe you would see why she is MONSTROUSLY SPECTACULAR" HAHHAHAHA............Love this line. But yea, she's alright. Beauty standards are very interesting across cultures. Hard to find an English speaking channel who rips and talk about these niche products, lots of great info you provided. Subbed and liked.
I actually love Molly so a silver (/25) auto of hers would be something I'd want. Now I'd never buy a hobby box to get that but one day I'll buy that card on eBay etc. Of course this set has a ton of parallels for this card so eventually I'll try to track down all versions of the autos for my people. Most autos have like 5 levels so it is hard to get the rainbow (the 1/1 is something that is likely impossible for me to get but who knows maybe one day...).
pack placement seems most likely scenario over weighing, with the exception of chekis. Pretty interesting either way. I so wish I still had boxes to open to compare numbers. Interesting experiment.
I really like the style of the cards this year, but kinda bummed that the foil stamped cards weren't more limited. They look great though. I've pulled two chekis from eight boxes.
I was just wondering if there are only 3 base autos this year because anytime I pulled a chrome auto last year, I still pulled 4 base autos. Idk, haven't opened any of these yet. Looking forward to.
You got the entire Kana collection! Lol Ikebukuro has a lot of great Base cards of Kana. Urawa has some really great base I wish they'd list they had these really cool Bandai NJPW lenticular cards. And some older BBM Base.
Wow sad about the earthquake! At least you are ok. As for this box I would say it was above average no doubt since a printing plate is always nice. And it is of three main eventers not someone like Curtis Axel or someone else undesirable.
