F it I'm in for 3 of the premium boxes, it may be my last chance to ever rip a "new box" with the way the wax pricing is going.

I enjoyed HPS19/20. I still have a bunch and have opened some semi-recently, I still like the product I just wish I wouldn't have had so much FOMO and hoarded something else lol.

It was a shame that the product had to be the fall guy for the pandemic pump and dump.

So you get 50 prizms, 1 auto, probably 1 rarer insert, and numbered cards. If it's up to 10 per box, this is the best retail product of all time.
The box says 10 Prizms or inserts per box. Is that where you're getting the 10 numbered prizms per box?

I think they're assuming these are what would normally be the Choice Asia SKU? Since it has Tiger & Nebula, and the numbered cards are /88 to /1 instead of /199 or whatever for the other SKUs

I'm gonna connect my Discover to my Rakuten, hopefully can stack the 5% Discover rewards with 3% Rakuten so it will be less of a slaughter when I pay $130 for 40 base cards and a Bilal sticker auto

They're all the Choice-like Prizms, just as BackToWax said

base is like the nucleus refractor from composite or choice base. i ripped mine and got 2 autos (all numbered but bad names), 4 /88, 2 /25, 1 /25 insert (WEMBY) and 1 /88 insert

product is loaded

so running a quick filter on the checklist for "Premium" you get around 55k #'d cards. divide by 8 per box and you get an estimated PR of 6882 boxes. not sure if the 8 #'d is for base/inserts and autos are on another table but shouldn't change the overall math by much.

First youtube break: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hz9L6E0agdk

looks like 7-8 numbered per box and an auto.

All "base" is the choice prizm

This is the best retail product ever.

Ngl, I ordered 16 of these so far. I think they are way underpriced. 1 Premium Stock premium box or 4 regular blasters of whatever...

the one premium box wins by far.

Is there a way to confirm that there are really less than 7k boxes made? If so, that print run is extremely low!

just looking at the results posted so far and the video, it looks like 8 hits (mostly numbered, but Tiger didn't look #'d) plus 2 inserts and an auto, which may or may not be numbered.

300 base x 122 (88+25+8+1) = 36600
100 inserts x 114 (88+25+1) = 11400

48k #'d / 8 per box = 6000 boxes

Of course, small sample size and the unnumbered Tigers taking the place of some hit spots could mess up the math, as well as it all being "on average". But yeah I'd say 6000-7000 boxes is likely if the hit rate holds up

I'd imagine Panini juices the first print of these and number'd cards dwindle as they print more.

But even if you average 6 number'd cards per box, that's only 8K boxes of this stuff.

Reminds me more of the 2021 chronicles Asia SKU. Those also had a ridiculous hit rate, these parallels and numbering are much more like the Asia SKUs just weird they ended up on Walmart

This is exactly what it's like, except with all chrome cards and case hit inserts.

Figures. I maxed out my order limit, lots of others probably did too. Bet the bot-reseller guys with multiple accounts will show up with the rest in a couple weeks

I don't think these got botted, as they were up for a few days and we all had ample time to scoop some.
