Great point. The sad part is I'm not even convinced in this era that rookie cards are that much more valuable than newer patch autos, or tribute rookies released in future products. Many of McD's newer cards are worth more than some of his RCs, depending on their scarcity or numbering, or emanating from a higher end product.
I got my green card as a kid when my family moved to the US. I eventually got my US citizenship (dual US/UK). Interesting side note about the citizenship ceremony, not hockey related, but I sat next to a guy that played in the CFL, but played college football at Michigan, where he played with Tom Brady.
Man I'm not sure if it's TH-cam's algorithms that are too smart, but when I refreshed my main page today I got as suggestions both your clip (of course) and also a Childish Gambino song I used to listen to years ago. I'm gonna be honest with you (as always), today was a rough day for me. But after watching your video and listening to the song, all I have to say is "And now that it's over, I'll never be sober. I couldn't believe. Now I'm so high!". P.S : For such a cheap box it's like being "so high!".
Congrats, visas are a pain. Due to human error/negligence at my old company, the application process stretched out much longer than needed and I came within a month or two of having to restart green card process all over again after 18 years. Luckily I got the green card in time.
That's great. I had to reapply - and repay - because they lost my application. The Covid lag didn't help. Prior, for years I had to visit Ottawa for visas, or have the UN send my passport to Washington DC. I even got visas from US embassies abroad. I'm probably more relieved than excited.
Congrats on getting your Green Card. My hubby is dual with Canada & US, he was born in the US but his Dad was in the Canadian Armed Forces for 35 years. Loved the break as always. #DRYDEN
Something off to me about UD calling this the 10th anniversary when MVP has been around since the early 2000’s. I guess it is the 10th anniversary of the comeback for the product but still strange to me. Nice box and great video as always!
Hm. I just took it as celebrating the 2014-15 set, it being ten years, and thus inserting those retros. But for MVP they usually use the term anniversary and not retro.
Congrats on the green cqtd fulton !!! I'm from Montreal living in Boston now got my green card 7 years ago so I know the feeling! Been watching your videos since day one you are my absolute favorite breaker !! #dryden
Random question - Do you ever get copyright striked for playing those songs in the background ? I watch toy hunt videos & a lot of them have to do voice overs over songs while toy hunting in Walmart, Target etc.
No strikes. I very consciously forego proceeds, as I am not doing vids to go viral or monetize by generating drama or grievance/anger. The songs are meant to underscore the sentimental component of why I break cards. There are many TH-cam videos explaining the policy on strikes, copyright infringement, or blocked music. But I do often get blocked in Russia, because of artist boycotts. But, I assume most Russians know this and use VPNs.
For what it's worth. That's absolutely the right way to approach the hobby. Don't let any gaming/gambling bro tell you otherwise. If you want to "invest," I suggest you take a look at the S&P not penny stock hyped cards-du-jour.
Congrats! I'm a dual citizen and a Montrealer in NY!
Childish Gambino, a green card, and hockey cards! That is one incredible 24-hour period. Amazing!
Congrats on the Green Card and then the Gold Card. I’m looking forward to some new non Bedard releases. Be interesting to see how they price things.

Congratulations man! I’m happy for you!!

Congrats on the big news!
That's amazing, congratulations. We are lucky to officially have you.
Congrats! Awesome to hear and well deserved.
Congrats brotha!!!
Love Mascot cards in this level of release, been a Youppi fan since the Expos days #dryden
Congrats!
Congrats Fulton!
Metal! was created in conjunction with their powder blue reverse retro jerseys. He's kind of stuck around, but isn't anywhere as prominent as Youppi!
Congrats on your awesome day!, you deserve it!

Congrats on the green card buddy! Love mascot cards personally. Thanks for the rips. #Dryden.

Great video and nice break
The stuff looks like fun, I might get a box just to hopefully get my two favorite mascot cards. And hopefully some good rookies.
Congrats on the green card! Great video as usual my friend!

CORRECTION at 2:23, the subtitle should read 2014-15 OR MASCOT GOLD (100%): GOLD SCRIPT (67%). He obviously isn't a mascot!
congratz

Congrats on the green cqtd fulton !!! I'm from Montreal living in Boston now got my green card 7 years ago so I know the feeling! Been watching your videos since day one you are my absolute favorite breaker !! #dryden
I really appreciate the anecdote and kind words.
Yahoo. No Ice Battles!!!
can't believe mvp is already out again, where did all the summer go?? #dryden
When I got my green card I was more annoyed that it took so damn long; and after all that now I’m moving back to 🇨🇦 lol
It's insane how long it can take. And I had the unfortunate timing of applying during Covid.
Congratulations on the green card....nice rip, a set I'm skipping this year #dryden
Congratulations on the green card. Also glad you are keeping you Canadian citizenship. # dryden
Félicitations 🎉
#dryden keep up the great videos

@@Fultoncards okay thanks for responding & the sharing the break :)
"for children to smush and smash" and here i am as a 30 year old man wanting to buy 2 hobby boxes, and a few blasters to build up a collection :(

Congrats on the green card! We need more good humans! But you may have to renounce your Canadian citizenship for not links that Habs mascots. #dryden
Congrats!
