That one was tough, but we live to rip another day…gonna do a few more hobby vids I’ve the next couple weeks, hopefully things will turn around! Cheers!
Thanks for the video! It is crazy that you haven't pulled a Downtown yet. I completely agree with you on the cover boys, but I'm disappointed that Joe Montana is not on the autograph list for this product. I see Frank J Boxes has dropped the Illusions hobby boxes for $300 US dollars. I still think that you had one of the better breaks of this product. Not completely sure about the Bryce Young Illusionist card, but Panini did leave off the RC shield for inserts like Prizm Break in this year's Prizm Football.
Interesting…I haven’t ripped any Prizm yet (I know it’s criminal) so I haven’t seen rookies without the shield but I finally got my hands on some so will do a vid of that soon. Even at $300 I don’t think I’d do that again…but…never say never 🤣🤣🤣 cheers brother 👊
This was rough... Too bad, because they're good looking cards. At least I was able to get the 2 Bryce Youngs out of it for my PC 😅 I'll have to keep an eye on your Ebay for that Jonathan Mingo.
Rough rip! I was planning on picking up one of these until I saw a few rips which changed my mind. Also, I'm very skeptical of buying Hobby on the secondary market. I feel like people buy cases and rip until they find the case hits and sell off the remaining boxes. You're in a bit of a slump right now but you're bound to get on a heater soon. Better luck next rip 🙏
@@gridironrips R&S is a fun rip, some of my favorite inserts are in that set. Looking forward to watching that rip. Fun idea: Opening a Sealed blaster box case! If hobby doesn't get you hits that surely will.
@@Jagermanjenson I’m looking forward to R&S too! I’ve looked around for sealed cases they are hard to come by (at a reasonable price) up here in Toronto. If you have a line on any tho, hit me up! I would love to do that!
Illusions is one of those products I never cared for even before the covid invasion. Thanks for sharing! 🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈 Take Care/Stay Safe ✌ They should do away with redemptions/points. All they do is piss everyone off.😅
🤬 I saw it happen to a bunch of the guys in other vids and somehow was still surprised when it happened to me hahaha ouch! Oh well! Can’t wait to rip my April HIT BOX gonna pull a banger I can feel it! Cheers bro 👊
It’s Limited, Illusions, Rookies & Stars, all of them. It’s abundantly clear Panini doesn’t have the autos and instead of lowering the price and the supposed guarantees, they’re just flat out robbing folks. Prices are actually worse and instead of Bryce Young, CJ Stroud, and Will Levis autos coming out of hobby sets it’s Jaren Hall, Sean Clifford, Stetson Bennett etc. It’s absolutely disgusting. I’ve lost all respect for Panini and no longer care what happens to them.
You are bang on with the autos! Brutal. I really really hope my Rookies and Stars box is better, but I don’t have high hopes…guess we’ll see next week. Cheers my friend 👊
For both retail and hobby you need both regular and 55pt. In regular some of the inserts are 55pt (zstars and zteam) in hobby the base are 55pt too! Good luck!!!
hit subscribe folks!
👊 thank you!
I already did
@@FootballsBackBaby2024 appreciate you! 👊
Illusions is the panini sucker punch for sure. I'd be gutted to bro
💯 hahaha this one hurt for sure. Cheers bro 👊
Sorry bud, thanks for going the hobby route. Brutal

Thanks man - I grabbed the pts. 👍👍👍
Nice! Glad you can use them!!! 👊

Cards are beautiful but that box … 🤢! I got you on the Mingo my man 👊
@@gridironrips Are you sure? I appreciate man!
@@AlexBoudreau14 yes sir! 👍
I wish I got numbers cards I never got any luck 😢😂
They are hard to hit in retail, easier in hobby but not worth the cost IMO at least in this product lol
Yikes bro that was rough but still was a blast to watch! Points in a hobby should be outlawed IMO. Oh well Jaren Hall auto 😂😂😂😂
💯 🤣🤣🤣 man autos suck without the big rooks in this years products! Cheers brother 👊

Thanks dude! I’m 0-2 with Hobby in the last 2 rips…going for broke with a Rookies & Stars next week 🙏
Appreciate you watching! Cheers 👊

@@gridironrips I usually browse on Dave and Adams Card World, they'll have some cases for the price of a hobby box sometimes.

Take Care/Stay Safe ✌
They should do away with redemptions/points.
All they do is piss everyone off.😅
I don’t mind the set, but I hear you, and the price point right now is just brutal! Points have no place in products esp not hobby!!! Cheers friend 👊
Points shouldn't be allowed in any hobby boxes. The fact I can get 250 points from $30 or less blaster is nuts.
💯 couldn’t agree more!!! 👊
From what I’ve heard Rookies & Stars are way better
Hope you’re right! We’ll find out next week 🫣
I am sorry you were frustrated but it's been like that for the most part for the last 2 seasons and Panini is to blame.
I know this and yet I fall for it every time! 🤣🤣🤣 Hope your well dude! 👊
I know it would be kind of hard but I would love to see you start a whatnot channel. Love the vid 🔥
I’ve been looking into it, will let you know! 👊
Panini is a joke. 400 bucks and you get points? But that Chad auto is nice. I'm a Cowboy fan that's why lol
Ya man. I can’t stand the points! 😡😤🤬 Thanks for tuning in tho! Appreciate you! 👊
Tough box. Points for a hit is awful.
🤬 I saw it happen to a bunch of the guys in other vids and somehow was still surprised when it happened to me hahaha ouch! Oh well! Can’t wait to rip my April HIT BOX gonna pull a banger I can feel it! Cheers bro 👊
@@gridironrips well it has Illusions in it so...
That was brutal. I'm sorry that you had to endure that.
Appreciate you! Thanks for tuning in! 👊
When are we going to stop letting panini rip us off?!?
I ask myself this daily 🤣🤣🤣

Cheers man!! Glad you agree with what I said. 🤙 Hope your Rookies & Stars box is loaded so it makes up for this.
and don't be sorry for bein upset that's just panini's fault for a terrible product
Haha true I was rattled…I’ve had bad boxes but…
You should have bought $400 worth of Megas! 😂
100% hahaha
Btw - those cards are pathetic. I doubt I would pay $100 for the entire box.
Thanks as always!
Ya. That box was rough 🤬
Which toploaders would I need for an illusions box? @gridironrips
