Came for the baseball card rips. Didn't realize I was going to watch a reverse jenga game. I still don't know how your cards did without toppling over. Lol. Great video educational. I'm going to be ripping mine soon. Just waiting for them to arrive in the mail.🎉
It's not completely random.. I mean.. this video is about baseball cards.. and.. your comment was about baseball cards. A good example of completely random could be "I know this is completely random, but, I have std crabs on my ass hoke hair" That's more completely random, as I did did not speak cards, but of my ass hope. Sort of random would be "my own ass hoke, is literally a 1 of 1" As, ifs a hint to the rare cards, but . Out of nowhere, I speak of my tiny little balloon knot, yet again. Thank you.
First of all anything serial numbered Doesn't qualifize as as ssp because it's already Numbered. Furthermore If there are 99 of them I wouldnt call it an ssp anyhow. Sp sure.
I just started opening baseball for first time today and as you were talking about not pulling Elly De La Cruz rookie card I pulled his rookie card on stars of MLB. He is in there. Don’t know if I hit anything crazy but just saying he’s in there.
FYI Henry Davis made his MLB debut over a month after McLain. The cutoff for 2023 Update was sometime in May, and Davis didn't get called up until June 19th.
@@skybcards I'm glad you asked!! I bought 3 Prizm Football value packs, and pulled red white and blue C.J Stroud !!!! The retail card gods have been in my favor lately!!
I got just one of the Blasters they are pretty good, Got the Holiday which is that flower-looking card of Henry Davis, a Numbered Yankees team card purple, and a chrome RC of Pete Crow. Those holiday blasters are kinda worth it.
My girlfriend bought me one hanger pack of this product and it was the last on the shelf and I got a major league materials mem card and a blue of Jasson Dominguez which there is only one on eBay currently on bid for $45 with 3 days left. Safe to say she did a great job. Will be listing mine later today likely.
I enjoyed opening several value packs. I agree on the dumb packaging where ur constantly flipping cards. I also don't like how the RC is in several different locations. But I'm in the same bat of not sure who to look for
I cant believe you didn't pull a elly Dela Cruz rookie out of all that retail. It took me five blaster boxes and 4 value packs to pull one. Great rip and love your videos.
Except for an auto, you did better than most hobby boxes and some jumbos. Both only have 2 numbered cards per box on average. Thanks for the retail break of all the different types.
@@skybcards my hobby and jumbo box came in this afternoon. Not one numbered card in the hobby box. But then there was nothing in the box except a $1 mem card. No Elly in the Jumbo either. 2 boxes, no Elly of any kind. Saving grace was Home Sweet Home Randy Arozarena auto 7/10 ( $400 on eBay) and a Home Sweet Home Julio Rodriguez 212/299. So can't complain about the Elly too much.
Love the videos. Quick update - The Walmart by me finally got a restock. It wasn't amazing but hey, it was new products on the shelf. It was empty with-in a couple of days. I'm going to try to hit up Target today and see if I can time the restock. Love the design on this year's Topps. Love that you do baseball too. Any WhatNot streams coming up soon?
I'd like to get some Series 1, who knows when that will be in. I think I'm done with football cards for the moment. My downtown hunt was a total failure and costly and don't think I can do the same with kaboom/explosives. Still haven't seen donruss basketball in the wild here, so that might be something.@@skybcards
New to the hobby. Mostly looking to collect basketball. If the Topps retail nba cards look like this I’m looking forward to it. I like the more traditional design.
I would check that 89 Topps Griffey Jr, cuz it was different then all the other 89 Topps you pulled. Also don’t forget there are 1 of 1’s that only say it in the back of the card.
Always great to see these products ripped, prior to making my decision. Appreciate your content and your commentary. I've been riding with you for a long time. Keep it rolling to 100K!!! LETS GOOO
Hi Sky, Thanks for the wonderful rip of 2024 Topps series 1. It’s the first baseball card set of the New Year that I have seen! Always love the baseball season coming! Have a fantastic day and take care of yourself! Much love bro, Peter
Pulled a yellow Elly today and was very happy with that! Got a Dylan Cease Team Color variation which is rare and a vintage stock William Contreras! Love the rip, Sky-B!
Ripped a pre-ordered jumbo from Topps yesterday. Weird box, 4 of the 10 packs had the same base cards and not one Elly? However it had a Patch auto of Riley Greene /10 a game used mem card of Gunner /25 and a black Shohei Ohtani Blue Print card /299. Prob wait a few weeks and let them drop in price if I get more hobby.
That box would be been amazing if it was last year 😂 but still sounds like a pretty solid box overall. Hopefully we both have better luck pulling Elly moving forward 🤞
@@skybcards that's fair. Did you see the memorabilia checklist? There's only 30 pieces so chances are slim, 1:251. One photo, nine jerseys, and twenty baseballs. I wouldn't mind getting the Ohtani baseball haha
Blasters are the way you pull way more numbered cards and the jumbo hobby I opened didn’t get one numbered card and only get 1 auto is dumb but trust the blasters are they way
Yes sir they are not serial numbered which I think is pretty dumb personally but yes the golden logo/gold backs are super short prints/photo variations out of 5 copies only
Love watching you videos.. mentioned you in my last video. I need to post more of my rips. Any chance of getting one of the Luken Baker cards, he lives near me and I’d like to get it autographed. Send me both and I’ll send one back 😊
Thanks for the rip! Flagship Jumbo is the best and most expensive way to get the hits in Topps. Monster and megas usually are the second best for parallels. If you wanna a guarantee coppin' a RC or build a set, you should buy jumbo. If you want Ely, you should probably wait a few weeks, because I saw a base going for $13. on the BAY. 🤣🤣🤣Having said all that, I think the average person is going to enjoy the flagship experience more than bang or bust of the more expensive retail products of Prizm and Absolute.
I opened a Jumbo and Hobby yesterday and didn't come close to a return. Based on what you opened and what I opened you got more numbered cards out of hangars and blasters than I did. Only got one Auto Byron Buxton patch out of 25 3 mems one being a Acuna game used. Some color a team color Zach Wheeler and only 2 additional numbered cards. Got some retail blaster and hangers to open this weekend to see if it's definitive on the better value.
Holiday variation Umbrella, Seth Brown /10 Blue Parallel Jordan Westburg RC /999 José Soriano RC 0444/2024 Ryan O’Hearn 190/999 Base Rookie RC Elly De La Cruz Blueprint RC Elly De La Cruz All from Target Value Boxes after switching over from NBA because my local target don’t get many other NBA Brands boxes other than Donruss. Which then made me go buy 12 more boxes😅
I have to agree on buying the card you want. I got a jumbo hobby box that was HORRIBLE. I did get a base Mead, Dominguez, De La Cruz and Carter, but it wasn't worth the price.
That’s good to know you can pull Elly😂🙌 he seemed to be avoiding me in my rip. But 100%, always smart to just buy the card! I could’ve probably bought an Elly auto for what I ripped

Blasters are kind of dusty IMO. You can't compare 2 hangers to 3 blasters since the blasters each cost as much as 2 hangers. 6 hangers woulda KILLED those 3 blasters....
@@skybcards I got a throwback mookie Betts game used bat relic in one and another bat relic in the other. Then I hit my Elly base in those. There was a few more nice ones too. Those 3 stuck out to me lol.
Also I'm just giving u a hard time. Nice video. It took me $400 worth of retail before I hit first Elly base. Four blasters,6 hangers,and 15 fat packs. Literally have 3 relic one a case hit, one auto rc. No big inserts like hfa or anything. Only retail I haven't ripped is super and mega

The Menesses was a Gold Mirror SSP.
Let’s go💪🔥 I wish it was like last year where it was really easy to tell when you had an SSP
They keep changing it every year now. Last year it said “SSP” this year the whole back of the card is gold apparently. Nice hit 💪🏻
@@skybcards This year they made it so those gold mirror cards have an entirely gold back.
Ive opened ten plus blasters of last years series 1 and pulled 0 numbered cards tlyour pulling numbered cards left and right
@@Jtevkicksandcards last year series 1 retail was the biggest rip off. I never seen anyone oull anything decent
I know this is completely random but my friend bought me a 90$ topps heritage and I pulled a /100 game used material SHOHEI OHTANI relic
That’s fire congrats bro 🔥🔥

I got a 2024 Topps Series 1 ELLY DE LA CRUZ VINTAGE STOCK LOGO VARIATION ROOKIE SSP #/99 out of a blaster 😳
I got an Elly De La Cruz greatest hits /75 gold out of a $8 pack
First of all anything serial numbered Doesn't qualifize as as ssp because it's already Numbered. Furthermore If there are 99 of them I wouldnt call it an ssp anyhow. Sp sure.
Nice pull though.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hey man I’ve been watching some of your videos recently and I like the vibe there isn’t too much energy it’s just chill. keep up the great work
Appreciate that a ton man!
Yeah same
You also help me decide what pack I get
Vintage stock and a ssp golden mirror out of retail is insane pulls by the way. So it was a very solid rip.
🔥🔥🔥 let’s go!!
I just started opening baseball for first time today and as you were talking about not pulling Elly De La Cruz rookie card I pulled his rookie card on stars of MLB. He is in there. Don’t know if I hit anything crazy but just saying he’s in there.
FYI Henry Davis made his MLB debut over a month after McLain. The cutoff for 2023 Update was sometime in May, and Davis didn't get called up until June 19th.
The cutoff should be later, like around the All Star break. Update includes All Star cards so their timeline is manageable.
I always put Mike Trout cards off to the side, even the base cards.
Just found your channel man and I must say you do breaks perfectly! No extra anecdotes, no constant break pauses. Just rip and go! Fantastic
Where did you get your mat that says Sky-B cards
I got a blaster and pulled three Easter short print parallels
Also hit Ronald Acuna Jr on the same insert. Are they good cards?
The stars of the MLB insert actually looks really nice this year
Agreed!
Looking for the kevin hart sssp...definitely check Phillies cards for small kevin harts
Also I think they are #'d /52 for Kevin Hart being 5'2
Great rip! I was looking at these last night at Walmart. .. Couldn't decide. This video clears that up !
Thanks !
What are you going with 🤔
@@skybcards I'm glad you asked!! I bought 3 Prizm Football value packs, and pulled red white and blue C.J Stroud !!!! The retail card gods have been in my favor lately!!
First hobby box I opened I pulled the Elly base 🤘🏻 great video man
Me too. First pack ! Also got an Auto and a Jazz Chisholm 2/25 in that same box. Plus 3 other numbered cards.
I got an elly all blue from a retail hanger box
What's the rainbow looking team names
What do you do with base cards ? Im getting burried and I cant find a kid to give them to lol
I got just one of the Blasters they are pretty good, Got the Holiday which is that flower-looking card of Henry Davis, a Numbered Yankees team card purple, and a chrome RC of Pete Crow. Those holiday blasters are kinda worth it.
What means when it have the rabbits foil?
I pulled the mookie betts 1/1 greatest hits out of a hanger yesterday 😳
Jeeshhh🔥🔥🔥 congrats bro!!
Thanks man appreciate it!
You forgot to do the super boxes but I love the vids bro keep it up
Are auto’s possible with any of these?
Just did this exact rip on Whatnot tonight. Except I did three hangers and they had the Super Box which had an Elly Oversized Box Topper!
My girlfriend bought me one hanger pack of this product and it was the last on the shelf and I got a major league materials mem card and a blue of Jasson Dominguez which there is only one on eBay currently on bid for $45 with 3 days left. Safe to say she did a great job. Will be listing mine later today likely.
Love the variety in sports on the channel
I enjoyed opening several value packs. I agree on the dumb packaging where ur constantly flipping cards. I also don't like how the RC is in several different locations. But I'm in the same bat of not sure who to look for
I found all except megas at Walmart. Target hasn't restocked this week yet.
Exciting times with the new release! Loved hearing your insights and recommendations! ⚾🔍
I bought 25 Blaster boxes and found a lot of good cards.

Seires 1 always extremely highly printed, but i cant walk away from it lol.
It’s crazy they keep increasing print runs when precious year products are getting re-stocked with discounted prices
@skybcards you'd think they'd have learned their lesson. I guess even at $15, they're probably still making money, so they don't care, lol.

Love when you bless us with baseball rips!
Me my brother and my dad were 200 dollars in, and on our last packs, in the end we all three pulled a base rookie Elly De La Cruz
What 3 digits represent sp and ssp
Hi Sky,
Thanks for the wonderful rip of 2024 Topps series 1. It’s the first baseball card set of the New Year that I have seen! Always love the baseball season coming!
Have a fantastic day and take care of yourself!
Much love bro,

I grabbed 2 mega boxes and 1 blaster. Only pulled 1 Elly base.
Pulled a yellow Elly today and was very happy with that! Got a Dylan Cease Team Color variation which is rare and a vintage stock William Contreras! Love the rip, Sky-B!

We’ll be chasing a TONNN of Elly rookies this year, not stopping until I pull an auto🔥🤞
Your pulls rates are awesome compared to mine.
i pulled the Elly base rookie today from a fat pack.
I cracked the EDLC home field advantage on my first hobby box
The gold backed is a golden mirror image short print.
Nice ssp hit. Not the best name but out of a hanger, cant complain. Lol
I’m def going hanger route. I rip a jumbo last night and was decent.
