Hey everyone! Got one pf my biggest rips of the year with the brand new Donruss Optic Football hobby. Check out the rip and review, and let me know your thoughts. Enjoy!
Got extremely lucky with my boombox. Got a purple stars aaron rodgers auto. I would never have a chance to rip these outrageously priced boxes so a company like boombox gives me a decent variety and at least a small chance to hit some nice cards from premium products....Great vid as always!
Fun one Hux! The Zay was fire but my favorite part was that your editing made the numbered color breakdown interesting to watch as well as informative! Great job as always and GL on your next rip!
Love the video, weep for your pocketbook. I appreciate the new review summary format (value, collectability, fun factor, etc categories). Thanks for taking one for the team.
I enjoy watching individuals and Breakers open up all FOTL and Hobby cases of 2023 Donruss Optic...crazy expensive Product. I will just continue trying to get a CJ Stroud, Anthony Richardson and Zay Flowers in the Green Velocity from the hated Value Packs because it is all I can ever find. I am 0-24 from my 2 Boxes of Value Packs...I was happy with the 18 Blaster Boxes I found early...did hit a few colored RCs of some of the Players I am chasing, but don't have much to show for the Retail I have been able to find. Tough Product overall Financially if you are trying to hit a Downtown...thanks for the breakdown of Hobby! 🤓🏈
Topps is notorious for sending juiced boxes to breakers like Stryker. Every pack had super rare hits that no average guy could pull. Optic has been trash for everyone I know. Worst return of investment I’ve ever seen.
I agree with you about Stryker he gets loaded boxes for sure. I think all buy in breakers are really bad for the hobby and it jacks the prices up on everything so not everyone can enjoy the hobby...
I can't speak to Stryker, but apparently, there's some news coming down the pike related to scanners and breakers/distributors. All I say is the hobby is heading in the wrong direction.
If Panini has Optic next year I expect 4 DTs per FOTL and 2 a box for Hobby. Every year they have become more prevalent. Also scalpers will buy all the retail from Panini directly and sell them at 4x recommended cost. This of coarse is based on my Optic experience and yes I am a little bitter and happy at the same time.
Dead skin of children!!!! 😆😂😆😂😆😂 OMG dude. Some hot takes in this one. Got some decent pulls outta here. I like the orange a lot. Prefer that over pink or teals 🤷🏻♂️
It's not a box for the feint of heart. It can absolutely destroy you. Blasters I think are better than Megas but I wouldn't be paying secondary market prices for those. Prayers it is! 🙏
Oof not the best box. Question on your comment about 2 short prints in 1 box comment. If there is a mythical pulled from 1 box there is likely another mythical in the same box? Or could it be a downtown, etc?
@@huxbux yeah you know the drill. Gotta buy more to offset this pain now. And right on thanks for the info. Reason I was asking is I bought a single pack (that my 2 year old son picked out) from my LCS and pulled a Levis Mythical. Now I’m wonder if I should go buy out the rest of the packs hoping for a bigger hit
If I remember right, and I went back and watched a case break, if the two SP inserts come in the same box but are never with a Downtown. So, you'll get a Mythical and a Rookie Kings for example. Don't want you buying the rest expecting a DT 😁
@LaFlamaBlanca_69 I'm saying there's another SP insert in that box but it's not a DT. And I never tell anyone to throw down $800 on a box. I can't live with that man 😂
With the downtown fiasco it makes me worried that they printed more downtowns. Which if that's the case I worry that it could devalue them from this set altogether.
There's little doubt they printed more. How many more is up in the air. I didn't mention it in my videos, but plenty of numbered DTs were also in the FOTL boxes. Did they double print those? Or did hobby get the shaft? It's hard to predict if it devalued DTs. It's hard to think it doesn't, but the hobby is also feelings over facts.

Congrats! I cringe when I see an Optic pack in a Boombox. So hard to hit out of one pack.

That actually means alot. By far the most time intensive part of the video is before and after the rip. Made my day. Thanks my guy 😁
Thanks for sharing this expensive opening
Nice rip thanks for sharing. I’m just a small guy can’t drop that much on a box. They need to make a special deal for us little guys.
Agreed. The hobby is trending towards wax getting opening exclusively by breakers.
Love the video, weep for your pocketbook. I appreciate the new review summary format (value, collectability, fun factor, etc categories). Thanks for taking one for the team.
Luckily I had a Swiffer on hand 🧹 Glad you enjoy the review part. Always trying to find value adds to my vids.
Tough one. With who those cases went to I don't believe it was a mistake.
It's hard not to think that. I try and hope for my sanity to stay in this hobby, it wasn't intentional. 😑
These product breakdowns are super informative. Keep up the good work, another class act product review my man!
Gotta step it up 😁
At that box price I am sticking with retail megas & blasters.
Decent box .congratulations on the zay flowers numbered card. As always fun video.
Thanks! That box needed one more good card to be half decent.

I think most collectors are feeling priced out of most hobby products, and it's a shame. Hobby really is a breakers arena now a days.
Honesty in evaluating panini, love it.
Tell as I see it. Just one man's opinion.
Love that Flowers card!
Gonna look good in a slab 👌
Make an irrigation system with that thing 🤣🤣🤣 I’m crying! Thanks for the review!
I might have lost my shirt with this box, bit my yard looks great! 😁
Cool 😎 video. Thanks for sharing. Keep up with the cool videos.
Thanks my dude. Appreciate you supporting the channel 🙏
That's a $200 box at best. The prices of hobby boxes are ridiculous anymore.
That Zay is gradable so maybe with a gem it gets me to $400 back. But yea these can be rough.
Zay numbered.. fun video.. thank you for sharing
🙏
Still a fun unboxing
Awesomeeee! Well done ✨
I love that Gibbs!!!
It is. That card would look awesome in a blue.
Good info
Love the channel
Appreciate that brotha! Thanks for tuning in!
Cool Gibbs
Was in some of the blez breaks, but witnessed gold/pandora CJ DTs live 😢
There were some fire cards in the Blez breaks, but they also opened an ungodly amount of cases.
Sick rip jealous I can’t rip this stuff 😂
Live vicariously though YT. Probably a better option anyways 🤣
Bills Mafia!!! Cried over Milano today.
Our D can't get away from the injury bug 😔
Damn i got the CJ Stroud Ice from Hobby Box Guess i was lucky
Nice pull!
Good luck on the next opening
Gonna need it

I wonder if these have fewer downtowns since the fotls had so many
If we take Panini at their word, there's the same but more DTs in circulation. But how do they actually know.
Zay was definitely the best card in there! Took one for the team!
It's a gorgeous card. Going to look good in a slab. 😁

DTs are way more common than their print numbers. The hobby is all about feel rather than numbers.
Nice cut away with that guy from Netflix. Lol.
It's timeless 🤣
The diamond hands looks sweet and at least the autograph ✍️ looks good. Not some guy with scribble.
Diamond Hands does look especially sweet in the black. 👌 Me and Myles are tight. That's the 3rd auto of his I've pulled this year.
This is the norm ! Don’t expect much from these boxes ! Not worth the money so sad !
I didn't and don't. Mostly, their dust. Was still a fun rip. Thanks for watching!
Still want a downtown, just wouldn't pay as much for them.
They might be cheaper in a couple months. 🤔
Sorry for your luck on this box. You gave an excellent review though. Than you
Glad you enjoyed!
How much would a Zebra Die-Cut Jayden Reed RC Select Panini run for
Depends on the level but a Concourse is a $150 card.
Dead skin of children!!!! 😆😂😆😂😆😂 OMG dude. Some hot takes in this one. Got some decent pulls outta here. I like the orange a lot. Prefer that over pink or teals 🤷🏻♂️
I blame my girlfriend. She still tells me dead baby jokes. 😬
@@huxbux Hahaha! She’s a keeper. My girlfriend specializes in yo mama jokes. Right in front of my mother.
Your mother must love her 🤣
They know what they are doing. Making $$!
As long as it sells, they'll keep making it.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🏼
That breakdown really made me not want to buy any...... guess its a mega and a prayer
It's not a box for the feint of heart. It can absolutely destroy you. Blasters I think are better than Megas but I wouldn't be paying secondary market prices for those. Prayers it is! 🙏
It's cool we just made more supply when the demand was supposed to be small so anyone after these i hope you don't know economics lol
Wait till Fanatics gets the license for the NBA.
Wtf! No downtown? 😂😂
It's a shim sham scammy scam! 🤣 So much for the Downtown Relief Program
Awesome Zay pull!
It's a sweet looking card for sure! Thanks Boji!
Wow, these can be a hit of miss.
Boom or bust. Mostly bust given the price tag.
Panini did it on purpose, so it makes people think they are buying a loading box.
I wouldn't put it past them. Anything for that matter.
Hobby hardships
The price is just too high. Thats pretty much it. The product is good. Just gotta be rich or have major debt to open a box.
If you asked me 2 years ago where the price of wax would be, it's def not were it's at.
Oof not the best box. Question on your comment about 2 short prints in 1 box comment. If there is a mythical pulled from 1 box there is likely another mythical in the same box? Or could it be a downtown, etc?
Yea, barely passable as a hobby box 🤣 From what I've seen, it's always a different short print.
@@huxbux yeah you know the drill. Gotta buy more to offset this pain now. And right on thanks for the info. Reason I was asking is I bought a single pack (that my 2 year old son picked out) from my LCS and pulled a Levis Mythical.

@@huxbux so you’re saying I should just buy a sealed box then 😂
@LaFlamaBlanca_69 I'm saying there's another SP insert in that box but it's not a DT. And I never tell anyone to throw down $800 on a box. I can't live with that man 😂
I know you lost but I’ve seen way worse boxes opened
It's wasn't the worst for sure. There's always someone else out there to make you feel better 🤣
Way too pricey/risky to rip
It's shouldn't be but it's a boom or bust product.
With the downtown fiasco it makes me worried that they printed more downtowns. Which if that's the case I worry that it could devalue them from this set altogether.
