Haha. Appreciate the kind words. You guys know I do it for education not monetization. Much diff demos and drivers. I’m like an old vintage Montreal smoked meat deli that has been around 100 years. Mainstream viral breakers are prob more like Wendy’s (which I like btw).
wow, that was a great box, I got three boxes and four loose packs, didn’t hit Bedard, but still got a lot of cool stuff. From the four packs I got the manufactured patch update of the inaugural year of the Seattle Kraken. Out of my boxes I hit a woody of Alex Ovechkin, three different, Fantilli, rookie cards, base, blue, and retro, a Leo Carlson bass rookie, a Bo Horvat All-Star green foil limited to 33, a Luke, Hughes foil, rookie limited to 350, a Jacob Markstrom purple base parallel, limited to 49 and for the third year in a row, I actually hit a retro blank back of miko rantinen. so I am done, I’m calling it good and I’m not pushing my luck anymore. My suspicion is that I probably pulled all the great stuff out of the one case that my card shop was able to get. The other thing I’m curious about is whether or not all of the 600 cards in the retro portion of the set have a blank back or whether it’s just the big name players because it’s the third year in a row. I’ve done this and the other two times I did it. I hit Austin Matthews from two years ago and then last year I hit Jack Hughes so I’m not exactly sure how many of the retros have a blank back but we all kind of know that they are super rare similar to the way of the woody cards. They don’t have odds but they’re super tough.
I totally forgot about OPC to hunt for Bedard I was so focused on trying to get some Series 2 lol I think I'll stick to opc when I can get it. Great rip man and congrats on the Woodie #dryden
Considering theres only 52 cards in the deck ( and 2 jokers) Im just happy Seider is in the deck! LGRW!! P.S. I saw the Ace of Spades pulled, and its Sid the Kid!
The OG of the HOBBY, thats right, love this set, but crazy how the prices have been creeping up... bedard mania is crazy right now. Design wise, upper deck killed it this year! THANKS for helping me save my money, watching you rip cards. YOU ROCK #Dryden
Can't wait to open my boxes! Nice pulls! Any thoughts on how the Puzzle Bounty /100 card was on COMC the night before release date? I know the release was pushed back originally, and I know there's massive efforts to open cases to get the bounties, but to get all the puzzle cards, receive the card from UD, and then get that card sent to COMC so it could be listed for sale the night before the product was even supposed to release feels pretty off, as if the product has been in the hands of some (LCS' or individuals) for what I would imagine be at least a week while the general public had to wait until today.
Hey Decoy. I wasn't aware of this. Let me just say, as a rule, I don't believe in speculation, as it leads to unsubstantiated claims. Anyone can theorize anything. But, if an authentic OPC card surfaces prior to an official release, there really are a handful of potential options. These include for instance either an UD, distributor, or retailer leak. I know for a fact that approved distributors (like GTS) and retailers (like D&A and SCC) ship boxes ahead of the release to time them to arrive on release day. So, individuals do get their hands on boxes prior to release day. Ppl could also intercept boxes in transit via the shipping company. But, middle-men are not supposed to open them ahead of time. Whether UD or warehouse staff pocket cards on occasion, we can only guess. I'm sure across all retail industries there is some leakage. But, I am not privy to stats around stolen or error cards that go missing, including from quality control. I do know that where there is generational talent there is more money, and thus greater incentive for misconduct. Also, I know in McDavid's rookie year there were def cards that went to staff as gifts, but often they were marked on the back as manufactured for staff. This included some McDavid autos. So, really, someone who is curious about cards that surface prior to release would have to enquire directly with the distributors and UD about how it occurs. Primary source and substantiate their theories. Otherwise, ppl will invent scenarios. I wish I could say I care. But, cards to me are gaming, gambling and penny stocks. There is a lot of volatility, it's a male dominated culture, and it is self-governed. I prefer to steer clear of the drama for clicks. I'm just building a community around understanding the basic math given cards are a sunk cost, and the sentimental aspects, divorced from equating cardboard to dollars.
@@Fultoncards I very much appreciate your response, and you pretty much put in to words what I was feeling. My only frustration is the perceived odds for bounty redemptions based on how much has been opened already (if some opened before release), but as you said, not easy to confirm it and harder to do anything about it, so instead of worrying I'll just look forward to my case arrival! :)
Never been a big fan of OPC (because, Platinum "AKA Topps Chrome v2.0"), but these past few years it seems like Upper Deck found a way to make it look like a more premium product overall despite the lack of jerseys, autographs and shiny stuff. Usually I'm not buying them, but I enjoy watching them. P.S : Thanks for the Bubly joke. Perhaps the true highlight of this video.
Ya Shaun. I think I get this comment every year. But, I can only check between cuts, because no one will watch a 20min vid from an OG guy. In a 13min vid, I'm lucky if I average 7mins engagement.
Congratulations, great box. OPC has really stepped up their game the last few years for being able to hit some nice looking cards. The price point is great for the product. #Dryden
To me this is completely what this hobby is about. Great looking cards with some great looking inserts. A lot of cards in the set so it makes set building a little challenging. And of course the OPC name is just special. It's not high end but it's something that can appeal to everyone. Young or old, New collectors or long time collectors this is great for everyone. Great video as always! #Dryden
Great observation. One of the appeals for ppl like myself is the inclusion of fourth line depth players. Even back in the 1970s, OPC was notoriously a 396-card set full of bruisers.
You are the best hockey card guy on youtube... not even close.
Strong second for me, Zeeree still #1 with his humor.
Fulton has had the best quality pulls lately.
nahh, fulton 💯. z is just a goof who only cares about spa and card value.
Haha. Appreciate the kind words. You guys know I do it for education not monetization. Much diff demos and drivers. I’m like an old vintage Montreal smoked meat deli that has been around 100 years. Mainstream viral breakers are prob more like Wendy’s (which I like btw).
@@gregdavis7047 My first time watching a Fulton vid, but agreed, love Zeeree's vids.
Nice box , always informative! Congratulations wood & green preview
#dryden
Congrats on a cool Bedard base card!! Nice find!!
All the best on your next find!!🔥
Nice box congratulations! Love the wood variant. Keep opening the new o-pee-chee. Always love yer videos. #dryden
Man stacked box! A woody, 3 number cards, and a bedard damn congratulations!

Very solid box! I particularly like the wooden card and I hope I will pull one with the two boxes I bought.
I totally forgot about OPC to hunt for Bedard I was so focused on trying to get some Series 2 lol I think I'll stick to opc when I can get it. Great rip man and congrats on the Woodie #dryden
Nice box. I like opc quite a bit. It's one of the rare products that I don't feel violated after opening. It's just fun.
Cool! Love the price point too instead of the high end stuff sometimes. I see Bedard’s woody already listed for 2500🤣
Fun box man🎉
Congratulations! I also pulled Bedard, his regular and retro rookie card. Plus the top rookie bounty all in one box.
Congrats! I broke 2 boxes and pulled a Bedard foil /350, Nick Foligno Award Patch, and a Leon Draisaitl woodie. It was a fun break.
Congrats I'd sell it before his young guns comes out but I'd understand keeping it too
Connor in the same pack as his Idol -Sid. :)
Love that Jason Robertson, first Bedard ive seen pulled #dryden
Sweet hit in the beardy!!!!
Congrats on the JRob and the Bedard!!! Just ordered two of these today. Excited to get into it whenever it comes #dryden
Considering theres only 52 cards in the deck ( and 2 jokers) Im just happy Seider is in the deck! LGRW!! P.S. I saw the Ace of Spades pulled, and its Sid the Kid!
Congrats on the Bedard! Those wood cards look awesome! Hopefully I'll hit one on my second box! Thanks for another great video!
What. A. Box!!!! Love seeing this happen to the best of people out there! Lovely stuff man!
-Matt
My LCS said someone pulled a bedard retro blank back today from their store
Looks like a fun product I hope to be able to get ahold of box to rip.
Always like the playing cards! #dryden also, I'm a big Bubly (or buble haha) drinker myself
The OG of the HOBBY, thats right, love this set, but crazy how the prices have been creeping up... bedard mania is crazy right now. Design wise, upper deck killed it this year! THANKS for helping me save my money, watching you rip cards. YOU ROCK #Dryden
Slow reveal with cards is one step closer to the og slow reveal at the Baccarat table

Nice hits from in this box. You’re busting the odds! Awesome woody. #Dryden
Hey how are you? I’m sure you know but Make
Sure you check the retros for blank backs!!

Dude you have the most insane mojo & goalie mojo on this planet/channel keep it coming brother!! #DRYDEN
Always fun to watch your break, keep up the good work! #dryden
The wood cards look so nice! I’m jealous of the Pettersson at only /33. #Dryden

I don't think I've ever seen a bad O-Pee-Chee break. #Dryden
Loving the retro design. #dryden
Too bad the bottom of Leon is messed. Upper Deck can't do much right.

Great pull with the Robertson. Cool box. #DRYDEN
Those Cherry Buble's are sooo tasty
Nice pull! Congrats! #Dryden

This seals it, I need to grab a box of this. #DRYDEN
Thanks for the rip! #dryden
Fulton mojo again
This looks like a product for me. Lots of nice chases. Good price point. Cards of players you won't find in other releases. #DRYDEN
Great observation. One of the appeals for ppl like myself is the inclusion of fourth line depth players. Even back in the 1970s, OPC was notoriously a 396-card set full of bruisers.
