Really cool stuff coming out of breaks so far. Love the E-X and on card autographics.

The Retro PMG w the wrestler drawings look really really clean. Naturally no where around me has any boxes for sale.

This is actually a really good product for the price.

I like what I see but nobody has it in stock :/

[QUOTE=LaloSalamanca;19984808]I like what I see but nobody has it in stock :/[/QUOTE]

I have a case coming today, but where I got it from seems to have sold out quick. I don’t think Blowout ever even had it in stock.

[QUOTE=LaloSalamanca;19984808]I like what I see but nobody has it in stock :/[/QUOTE]

Some on eBay as of a couple hours ago.

Cost on this is $90-95, upper deck finally made a good Aew set

dang I didnt even know these released already

and yeah looks like no non ebay stores have this

I got used to waiting for AEW boxes to go on sale but print runs seem low on recent sets that they just go out of stock now

I never got Allure and may have to do it on epack

Other sites put it up now for $130, up from pre order prices

[QUOTE=LaloSalamanca;19985513]Other sites put it up now for $130, up from pre order prices[/QUOTE]

I had an absolute blast with my first case, so I went ahead and ordered another. Probably pressing my luck, though.

Care to share your pulls? Other than a couple funny inserts I'm liking this set a lot.

And then one card I wanted most out of the product. MJF Jambalaya

Well done that MJF Jambalaya is worth it alone, everything else is a cherry on top. Surprised Wardlow is in this set still, can't remember the last time he was on TV.

Yeah, I just assumed they had some stickers to get rid of when it came to Wardlow haha. And the MJF was an awesome surprise. Considering there’s 20 of them and they fall one every two cases, the odds were definitely stacked against me.

Looks like a great set, my stores also didn’t have any though. Might wait out the initial buzz since I can’t get immediately and see if it goes on sale if secondary sales don’t match the hype of the pulls

Picked up a few boxes from my LCS. Cards look great.

Hit these two PMGs

Mox is a retro blue /50

Bought two more boxes today from my LCS. The JJ and Auto were in the same box. The OC Retro PMG and Premium Performers were in the other box.

Nice Ospreay. Buzz has already died on these so hoping to find/pick up a box soon when price drops

I'm going for all of the red PMG's again (I'm an idiot). Prices on singles seem to be significantly less than 2022 version.

For example, I just won a 2025 MJF base eBay auction for $157 and last year I think I paid $300 each for his base PMGs after searching high and low.

I’m a buyer on Ospreay if you’re willing to sell.

I'm doing both again this year. Open to buying if you have any available :)

2022 is the first AEW PMG’s ever, that’s why I’m abit surprised at $99 Skybox on e-pack doesn’t get more love or is even sold out by now.

I like any PMG but it’s kinda weird how heavy everyone is hyping these when they are 1. Much less rare 2. Will never be the wrestlers first PMG for most in the set 3. There will be PMG’s in every skybox set so first aside again I don’t see the huge draw

While I wait for WWE Finest boxes to come down in price once the initial "hype" dies down, purchased a box of these. Happy with the cards, they are pretty. Not the best wrestler I could have pulled a PMG for but really like the card and I'm a big fan of Kris.

Nice Kris auto! I have three more boxes on the way that should be here by the end of the week.

Wtf happened to Kamille anyway?

[QUOTE=ThatGuyPal;20040833]Wtf happened to Kamille anyway?[/QUOTE]

I follow her on Instagram and she changed her name on there and hasnt posted anything about wrestling in months so it feels like she quit the business?

I really thought her and Mercedes was leading to a Batista like turn for her and a nice push. That sucks if she’s gone, she has presence, some could say she’s a worse Megan Bayne in wrestling skill but she was cool in NWA

This hit E-Pack today fwiw
$8.99 a pack
$129.99 a box

Opened some epacks and these were my flashers.

No idea about any of this stuff, but the designs and price felt right :)!

Opened 14 packs so equivalent of a box and got 3 red flashes:

Anna Jay - Blast Furnace Gold Parallel /99
Hikaru Shida - 2013 Metal Universe Retros Precious Metal Gems Blue Parallel /50
Matthew Jackson - eX Century Essential Credentials Future Parallel /65

I think that's me one box equivalent and done though, will probably push my luck on some other product in the future for fun.

Opened one pack and hit a Mariah May/Blake Monroe Jambalaya. Must be popular, have had over 10 trades on it so far.

I mean Jambalaya are one of the rarest inserts and has historic popularity, from what I saw in physical rips much more difficult than a PMG. She also doesn’t have WWE pack pulled cards yet that I know of, if you get a good offer I’d take it. I have noticed from Punk to Jade most AEW stuff goes down as they get WWE stuff.

Bought one pack, think I may be a one and done as well but I know I'll come back for a few more here and there:

Nice hit and name, although personally printing plates are my least favourite 1/1

Oh yeah no doubt. I'd rather like a red PMG of him even but still happy to hit it.

Pulled this yesterday along with/ another Vivacity (Menard)...

[QUOTE=Chrominator;20109858]Hey fellas, any idea of a fair asking price for this one^?[/QUOTE]

It looks like one sold on November 20 for $99.99 and then one sold on November 25 for $120.

Thank you :)!

Opened a box rather than packs this time and hit a Brody King Jambalaya, any idea on value?

Also just pulled a Energ-Eyes Black Parallel of Pac, I think these are #/11?

That's 3 boxes in total for me now and done, pushed my luck with the last 2/3rds of a box and didn't luck out.

According to Terapeak, there have been three sales of these.

$75 BIN on 8/6/25
$100 BIN on 8/17/25
$100 BIN on 8/21/25

Bought 3 packs on a whim. Finally get a Gold 1 of 1 PMG!..... just might be the weakest name possible lol. Maybe he'll get that Cody rematch one day.

There's a bunch of folks on Whatnot who break AEW cards and "getting Ogogo'd" is a term that gets used where you hit a rare card, but it's of a lesser desired performer.

Congrats on the 1/1 though!

Haha gonna have to remember that for future use. Think I'm gonna mail it out to have in hand just for the novelty of it.

I just finished completing the red retro PMG set from this set and wanted to show it off:
