So many questions ... like if the standard packs are an open edition with this card having a finite 3,113 tokens, how could they sell an open edition with a 64.50% chance at a Common Card? Yes, I understand there are many but that still puts a theoretical cap on the number of packs? Would they just mint more on demand? If so, why advertise the number of tokens (both in existence and unboxed) if they are actually minted on demand?

One thing that's super neat is tracking the sales.

I had 9 ult packs. Opened 4, sold 5. Made about 30% after fees .

They pulled a panini and went mass print on standard and $100 a pack on ultimate really cut into flipper returns (vs other wax drops)

Am I missing something?

I find this hard to believe, 9 packs would have ran $933, I count about 15 of the ultimate packs that went for over $200 on Atomic Hub.

Or have you already sold your singles?

i guess they did a 10 minutes streeet test where people got to open pack early. If I would have opened early would have made 5k wax. sold one card for 1k that went for 5k and 2500 early. very tilting

I realize Godzilla is the hot set today, but I'm pretty excited about this. I just wish I'd bought some weapons a couple of days ago when I was thinking about staking them.

I only got a Standard Pack when they decided to go unlimited on the packs. Poor decision to not set a limit on the cards. ROI wise it's certainly negative with 3 common and 1 uncommon, but i do like the card and will HODL lol.

Even the Monster of Rap packs which took few weeks to sellout, provided 3-4x ROI.

Yeah I was thinking about putting more funds in to buy some. But I want them to keep dropping.

I'd think that's pretty greedy considering at least where I live there was another $3.99 of fees on each ultimate pack

Already bouncing back up a bit. Good luck!

True. Already sitting on 8. Just put some funds in to pick one up to open

The volume that is moving on these packs is pretty amazing considering there were only 4700 sold.

Is there a lot of day trading/arbitrage seeking on these kinds of things?

I'm not familiar but the chase and price relative to traditional boxes/packs makes it worth the gamble. This is pretty much the first release I've jumped in on. I'm really enjoying it.

Still a fair number of SN1 legendary need to be pulled. If I had some more funds I'd probably buy like 10 more packs and shoot my shot at those.

Just from a value perspective, I'm not seeing much bonus to opening the Utlimate packs. Certainly not the standards. I should have flipped my Ultimates, but I thought the rarer items would do better than they are.

Aside from my complaints (which I'm still sore about) I've enjoyed being able to peruse the images of the set immediately and the transparency/visualizations of sales/volume on atomic hub.

Didn't pull any legendaries out of my ultimate pack, but I did get this epic mural art (Rodan 2 of 5, mint# 95/172) with Matt Frank sig.

Do you think there will be value in low minted numbers like some other NFT collectibles? f so, what is a good # to be under to invest in? Thanks!

Watching the history of sales, it does seem that the lower the mint number the higher the price. I think #1 went for 3k wax.
