Yeah i was super underwhelmed. Glad to have done it for the experience (don’t know if i could get cellos otherwise) but def not a fruitful rip (and frankly not even that exciting)

Disappointed that they loaded the link for Prestige megas this morning but didn't stock them.

The link has been up since last week. But I’m with ya. Doesn’t make sense to leave it up and not restock.

They did restock but at an oddball time last week, I think Friday afternoon. So that could happen again.

Well I'll just hope for the best on it. Hopefully I can get a few decent ones.

It's limit one and you have to spend $35 for free shipping, but you can add an MJ USA Funko to your order for $8.99.

Those usually are not in stock

Blasters aren’t good. Megas are practically low end hobby boxes

It is true, however you do get a lot of cards out of blasters for the $19.99 price point, and you can pull the case hits (I hit a Drip out of a blaster)

So you'll still have fun.

That definitely helps if the case hits are in them

Yup just noticed it.

So you have to manually click on that every time then, correct?

Anyone try the store yet for loose Select fat packs. I see that a few in my area say "limited stock" (which typically means NO stock). But it's a new day... so...

Megas over blasters for sure but the blasters were still fun. Only opened 2 blasters but got 3 numbered total including a sick 4-color patch /50 I’m in love with. I also like the diamond parallels in blasters over the hypers in megas but that may just be me. Cello boxes of this are great too, always been a fan of sunbursts, sealed cello boxes have been good to me

Megas are in a class of their own though because it’s 4-5 numbered cards per box and the 1 auto on top. That’s why they may feel like a hobby box to some and can’t beat it at the price point of $40. Closest comparison that I’ve ripped is probably elite basketball, tons of colored and numbered parallels, mostly not high end or that valuable but elite is a hobby box I’m comparing it to, this is just a $40 retail mega and a sleeper in my opinion

My 3 are ready for pickup - probably go and nab them in a day or so..

I wouldn't be surprised if this is them testing these systems out for future card drops (this is how consoles are currently handled)... I wonder if the only reason so many of us were able to get the Select Megas today was just the shear volume of them...
