This stuff is bad at $300.

fair enough, ultra rare on the box is very misleading.

I opened my box today. KD stained glass and a steph straight fire out of my 1 box. The two numbered cards were pink base KD /49 and blue or purple base Rudy gay /99 (I’m color blind so I can’t tell if it’s blue or purple) Also got a KD Overdrive hah it was a KD themed box it seems. The auto made me laugh with how random it was, Kiki Vandewegh haha. Never would have crossed my mind that I might pull a Kiki Vandewegh auto today haha The stained glass is absolutely awesome looking but idk about it being ultra rare or anything, same with straight fire. Overall I like the look of the product just not at the price they are.

Edit: also only came with 3 of the 5 advertised silvers. I submitted a claim but I doubt they’ll do anything

It's not guaranteed, it's on average.

It's so funny about the stained glass inserts. I definitely want one of some players but I'm going to wait a bit. "Rare" - sure, there's 20+ Zion stained glass on Ebay right now with a constant flow of them.

k13 · 12-20-2021, 11:53 AM

Cards look good especially some of the parallels.
Saw the blue edwards usa on ebay...looks sweet.

1800gambler · 12-20-2021, 01:18 PM

What do you think the “ultra rare” print runs of stained glass and straight fire ended up being? Has to be some astronomical number I assume. I have a Steph straight fire and a KD stained glass, they look phenomenal in person (especially the stained glass) but “ultra rare” is absurd. They’re all over eBay haha

babyfaceposey · 12-20-2021, 01:53 PM

Like this years jam masters better then last years. Reminds me of NBA Jams with the big heads.

Idk either...seems like every break I watch or rip on Youtube...they all pull 1 per box

Wow, these are interesting for sure...

bigjbasketball · 12-20-2021, 03:08 PM

I don’t know what they were thinking with this Jam Masters design. I can see they were trying to make the heads comically large, but it’s like they didn’t make them big enough. They’re just large enough to make the players bodies look oddly distorted, but they’re not quite big enough that you can really tell what they were going for.

I like that they are staying with the theme, at least.

I'm most excited about the Bang insert. It's like a budget version of the One-and-One Timeless Moments card, which is way too expensive for like 99% of the hobby.

Wow you are correct, and for some I believe they even used the same exact photos.

The parallels are going to look really nice on this one. Especially the silver mosaic because it is color neutral.

yiguiri2002 · 12-20-2021, 08:27 PM

I'm shocked Hobby boxes have been able to hold above 600. Who's buying them at those prices?

I think once retail saturates the market the price might come down more

doubledribble · 12-21-2021, 11:30 AM

When does retail drop?

90skid · 12-22-2021, 03:01 PM

FYI Panini's got their hobby boxes on sale, straight from the sauce: $625. Ahahahaha.

Still way too much. Patience.

thor_rider08 · 12-23-2021, 03:59 AM

I am a big fan of last years Mosaic.
This year it all looks trash.
I hate the Jam Masters and think they look like sh1t. ABSOLUTE SH1T!

The only card I like is the Lebron NBA Finals with the lakers trophy and a color of the base.
I will stick with stacking 2019 PSA 10s!

21.98 for hangers—only thing I saw
Was having friendly talk about cards with nearby employee and saw lots of normal stuff that’s less in demand. Saw pink box and Mosaic logo and asked what it was—jackpot. I asked how long it was out and she said she just grabbed it from the back today.

cjmccreary · 12-23-2021, 11:00 AM

Thanks. Seen reports of Minn and Wisc but nowhere else.
