When I was a kid in the early 90s, i used to get $5/wk allowance. Every friday, I'd ride my bike to the store and spend it on a pack of Marvel cards. Back then, holograms were the only "hits". It was all about completing the base set.
It's how I usually participate with the marvel products but there is something about fleer ultra that gets me every time! Check out the livestream...I rip 6 boxes!
@@robertscott5092 niche? fleer ultra is a pretty popular and loved product. Compared to current sports products and what fanatics will likely charge for their marvel products, this is practically free!
Thanks for this video I'll certainly be buying a few of these boxes myself here in Australia... My favourite card you pulled definitely was the weapon X card that looks AMAZING!! Keep up the good work I've now subscribed to your channel
Thanks for watching! Yeah those are really cool cards! I sent that one off to a big Wolverine collector in a trade. It’s just a really fun product to rip!
I wish they were a little thinner but I do like cards with some heft to them. I know a lot of people like platinum because of the chrome style cards, and of course metal is very popular. I like fleer ultra because of all the original art work on the base cards and, in my opinion, the best inserts!
I gotta go with box 2 for that weapon x /75. Hoping to pull some nice Weapon X stuff myself. Are 75 pt top loaders too small for the card stock on this set? I've heard 100 pt mentioned a couple of times now.
I went 100 and they were perfect. I would recommend thick card sleeves that are precut or slit so you dont snag the corners. I used 75 point for the non thick stuff because they ranged in thickness and it was easier than having 5 different toploader sizes around haha
@@joeday17821 Thanks, I'll pick up the 100pt when I go back to pick up my Wolverine boxes. I got the extra thick soft sleeves that are good for up to 130pt
also meelypops gave me a good deal on my second case...you have to call them to get prices (some weird thing with upper deck only allowing certain sellers to post prices on their sites)
I hear ya, but when we mostly talk about sports cards on the channel $230 for a box of nice cards is practically free. Its sad but its true. $230 probably doesn't even get you super low end basketball or football. Platinum is cool, but isn't that even more expensive?
I do! Check out the description for that info. I don't have a ton left, just some base sets, some singles, and some numbered medallions. Let me know what you are looking for.
@@journeyman2003 This was part of the first case I opened...bought a second one...made a profit on both and kept a bunch of cards for my PC. You are LUCKY to get 30 percent value back on a box of football or basketball cards. I see people opening boxes of Prizm for $1000 and getting MAYBE $200 in value back. BTW you think it's bad now...wait until Fanatics takes over Marvel!
They need to bring trading cards back at an affordable price .
Sadly, 230 bucks for a box with nice chases is affordable nowadays. A box of Prizm football is $1000 and you may get $100 in value out of it.

@@joeday17821 definitely Agreed some box worth a lot more
Cool cards and some good hits in those boxes!
Love the thick cardstock!
Box 1 winner because of the comic cut.
Cool stuff bud 👍 Thanks for sharing. 👊
Wolverine 10 is the first time he goes up against sabretooth. This set looks great!
Awesome stuff, man. Love the checklist. Can't wait to watch the rest of the case opening
Incredible Hulk 181 was Wolveirne's first COVER appearance. His ACTUAL first appearance is Incredible Hulk 180.
haha it took over 9000 views but I knew someone would come in with this comment! I should have said "first FULL appearance"
😂
That Weapon X is gorgeous! If anybody gets any of the Maverick chase/subs, hit me up!
Great looking cards Joe. The comic cuts is amazing.
How you check the cards to know short printed ?
I’m honestly pretty impressed you noticed by hand what could not have been more than a couple gram difference in those packs at most
the human scale is what they call me! lol
$250/box to rip. Thanks for the window shopping opportunity once again YT.
Watching rips on TH-cam can save you a lot of money! lol
I don’t understand why the are so expensive. TCG boxes are $120.
It's how I usually participate with the marvel products but there is something about fleer ultra that gets me every time! Check out the livestream...I rip 6 boxes!
Right. Way too expensive for such a niche product.

Pretty cool boxes man. Congrats!
Need a pull recap at the end please
Dude, that Deadpool is nuts
What's wild is I sold it, regretted selling it, and pulled another in my second case! haha
Are these the best marvel cards? And do u like them being thick like that?

Very cool rip Joe. I don't know a lot of them, but i like the medallions. The subsets are really nice. Thanks for sharing.
Yo those are sick i didnt know they made these cards!!!
The EX century is the suspended animation cards from 94 fleet ultra xmen cards.
They look epic
Upper Deck is very smart in using the IP they got from Skybox
I wish I could get them in Germany. Thx for this video
That gold Deadpool took the show imo.

I got one. It was this or a $500 XMen box. I think the choice was easy 😂😂😂
I like the card with the comic book panel and the Daredevil -- er, I mean, Deadpool. Good timing with the movie coming out in a few weeks.
Idk these cards but the look and concept of the comic cuts is 🔥! Are there any autos in the product?
Yep! In the next few days we will have some videos with some auto hits! One really really cool one!
Hello, I’ve been wanting to buy some marvel trading cards, but I don’t know which website to use. Where do you get your cards?
Joe got his case from Dave & Adams Card World
also meelypops gave me a good deal on my second case...you have to call them to get prices (some weird thing with upper deck only allowing certain sellers to post prices on their sites)
Where are you checking the pull rates?
I used becketts checklist site. I think tcdb has them now too.
You get a lot of x 23 cards in this series
yeah, she was very prominent in this set. She had her own base insert set then had several base cards and hits.
its a dream.. Where you buy that dope cards?
Cool cards but not cool enough with that kind of money. I’m still digging the platinum series

Do you sell

Wendigo
Haha I was close...I had a senior moment for sure!
500 bucks for 100 cards
technically 460 bucks for 144 cards...an absolute STEAL if you've ever opened up football or basketball cards lol
Wendigo!
damn close lol
@@joeday17821 Yeah, you were, lol. I didn’t get to watch the live rip. How did you do on those boxes? As alway, love the channel!
@@unamazon6107 go check it out on the live tab...its only 45ish minutes are there are some BANGERS in there!
So overpriced. Hard to collect anymore
compared to sports cards these were practically free and have waaaay better value
@@joeday17821 not at $25 per pack
