Haha, I was expecting something around $120. But with how the last release failed and 2024 TC Olympics releasing at $100 per (for hobby boxes), I became hopeful of a $100 release.
If you only collect tennis, it makes sense. The price isn't absolutely absurd, but because I collect multiple sports (as well as some non-sports), there's just too many other substitutes of better-value.
I agree with you that the price can fluctuate depending on the checklist (if they secretly add some other superstars, demand can potentially push prices higher).
But I've learned from my 2022 TC BB Jumbo case mistake (which, fortunately, I didn't lose much as I preordered very early), but when you preorder, it's best not to assume and only go with what you know. Or if you're willing to gamble and take a risk, prepare to be very disappointed too.
