SSP CASE HIT!🔥 | 2020-21 Panini Illusions Basketball Retail Blaster Box Review x3

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ม.ค. 2022
  • I am opening three retail blaster boxes of 2020-21 Panini Illusions Basketball for our next sports card pack opening/product review! These boxes have an SRP of $20 but resell for ~$30-35. Every box contains 6 6-card packs. Look for emerald and ruby parallels which are exclusive to the retail blasters. These boxes come with chances at pulling rare SSP Starlight parallels (retail exclusive), inserts on acetate stock, emerald parallels (autos #/25), exclusive ruby parallels (#/125), autos from two different sets (Rookie signs & Trophy Collection Signatures), autos/rookies of LaMelo Ball, Anthony Edwards, Tyrese Haliburton, Cole Anthony, & Tyrese Maxey, and more! Compared to other products, this is a low-end set. This product also has hobby and other retail formats. You can get a box for yourself from Target, Walmart, your local sports card hobby shops, and online retailers/sellers. Overall, I would rate this product a 5.25/10. Good luck if you try these for yourself!

      Found a couple boxes at Target so decided to test my luck. Pulled a nice Teal Wiseman out of /75 but every packs 2nd to last card was severally damaged, corner was completely destroyed. Never seen this in blasters before and curious if anyone else has had this experience.

  • @drewchurchill1302

    I may have a theory of why the cards are hard to tell the difference. The name of the set is called "Illusions" lol great content tho!!

  • @brooks750
    @brooks750 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    You can tell the difference of the parallels by the color of the foil changing from Gold in the base to more of a chrome/silver look.

  • @xslash678

    Thoughts on illusion ? It's easy to get because the flippers aren't after it and it that sense satisfied the itch to rip. It's fun to rip.

    I bought an illusions mega the other day and most of the base cards had massive corner damage and even creases right through the cards as if they had been bent in half. Box had no damage so it was likely from the factory. Very disappointing because I’m a fan of the set but don’t trust buying retail. Anyone else have this issue?

    @thingsbymac2100 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Straight up, the easiest way to tell is the foil on the name/number.. it’s silver on parallels, on the base it’s bronze/gold. I have an emerald Ja from last year that I only noticed because I thought it was a misprint on the foil color lol
