Right. New parallels in this exclusive to Panini. Figured it was worth a shot seeing what happened last year.

22-23 Monopoly Panini exclusive blasters sell for around 3 times the regular ones. Obviously there is a difference.

Had no idea, wild! $106 for a blaster is…interesting. Are they chasing Chet?

This is still the time to buy while all of the bot boys are undercutting each other and don’t know what they have. Wemby will make these worth way more than last year’s rookie class once the initial supply surge dwindles away. Can’t wait to rip some of these!

Wemby has 63 parallels in regular prizm. At a certain point none of this stuff is even going to sell for anything...

That's wild! I thought retail was over? Next time I go to target I'll go check it out. I buy singles so retail never was really a problem with me. Lol!

It’s not bad, you basically get about 2 numbered cards per 5 blasters from what I’ve been getting. Opened 20 blasters and have gotten 8 parallel or numbered cards.

Wemby and Bedard (to a lesser extent) are putting retail on their backs right now.

Bedard is not a lesser extent. He has drawn many more dollars into the hockey market and overshadows Wemby by a lot. Wemby has so many retail options they all get muddled. Bedard, currently has OPC AND upper Deck Young Guns. Is there a Wemby base, even though sp’d, that topped 1,000 out the gate without an auto on it?

Well, let's put it like this. I bought 2 games and 3 blasters at pre-order. Pulled most the base rookies, pulled a Jaquez silver, pulled a gold ANT to /500, pulled a Wemby base, and pulled a Wemby purple. Put them all up for 7-day auction and profited a grand total of $15.

So, if you're a collector, it's probably hit or miss. If you're someone who sells for fun, stay away.

So I just opened a blaster box where literally every...single...card was miscut! Most, around 10-90 top/bottom, with a few as bad as -5-105!!



On the "plus side" (so to speak) there were no cards of any significance/much value. On the flip side, however, I'm out around 34 bucks! Has anybody had a similar experience where every card was jacked-up? If so, did Panini compensate you/make the situation, "right"....? If I'm not mistaken, Panini employes a...."card for card".....automated replacement module on their site. Quite frankly, I'm not going to sit there and input (24) individual cards which, collectively....have a FMV of around $3.12. But if Panini might, perhaps...."extend goodwill" and say; OUR BAD! We'll send ya' out a comp/replacement box,...well then I'd certainly be inclined to reach out to them.

Thanks.

It's FOMO. People missed on the blasters and are going for boosters.

I think paying $70 for a blaster is better than paying $30 for a booster. And it's not that close.

Yep the blasters seem to be better than the boosters.

Huh? The one blaster only parallel does not in any way, shape, or form make the box worth double
That makes no sense. I'd love to hear your argument as to why you think that.

People are going by what happened last year. It seemed easier to hit numbered parallels in the Panini Blasters compared the target ones. That's the main reason they go for more.

Interesting. If this is actually true and they all got ate by bots in seconds on the panini direct app.. is there any way to get these besides from scalpers on ebay/stockx?

I can't speak for him but the expectation is that the blasters will have more numbered cards on average.

If numbered cards hit at the same rate as boosters, that means Panini printed over half a million of these total. That seems like an insanely high number given all the problems they've had with releases.

There's more in the blaster than just one parallel.

There's one specific parallel not found in the target boosters. Where are you seeing that their other parallels unique to the Panini Blaster boxes?
