Every Monday I go to my local Walgreens and pick up some Pokemon packs. I saw these in a display tonight with 3 pack boxes of silver tempest and lost origin. I went with the silver tempest. Skipped the scam, I was so proud. 😂
Out of the 30 packs i have bought. I only pulled one evo skies and one darkness ablaze. I haven't seen any vintage pack. They charge 10 bucks for most packs that dont even cost 7 bucks. No i know has gotten a vintage pack either. I call bullshit and a scam. They're legally able to scam you and it's bs
We saw a machine at the mall where you can pay $1 for a random card with pictures of Moonbreon, Chonkachu and Sleeping T-tar on the side and I've never seen such a bold scam.
Had a buddy pull a base set booster out of one of these. That wasn’t the craziest part though.. the cards inside were moisture damaged and all stuck together. Talk about a roller coaster of emotion. It had an Alakazam in it too
I wish there was a little data at the end like: how many packs opened, how many reverse holos, how many packs from each era/series, and 3 most expensive cards pulled or something. Could also make for a short to show how worthless these are.
These mystery packs are so rough I remember when I first got into poke In collecting I had so much faith in these without knowing much about them and then quickly realized that they are total scams 😂😂
Might be a good idea to open lightning sets instead of these mystery packs. 20 dollars for four packs and a bonus card. Thats what i got my Moonbreon from.
Getting Evo Skies out of these is pretty cool, but I guarantee the retail price is not worth the value pulled unless maybe it’s Burning Shadows? Love how they don’t even put V cards in as the “foil” 😂
they dont specify if its seeded per booster box or or per booster pack, they just say seed 1 in 10, without any context. i did the calculations, if you take the price of a booster box $110, and the number of packs per box 36, and the price of fossil booster pack on ebay $170, and a profit margin of 180%, and the desired price per mystery pack, you get a seeded ratio of roughly 1:360 packs, or 1:10 booster boxes. its 100% a scam to buy from MJ holding
So I started collection my first series of pokémon, the 151 collection. Should I keep the EX'es in toploaders or should I only store ilustraion to hyper rares in toploaders?
I usually just wait until I have enough store points or a coupon before buying one of these mystery packs, and then the gamble is a much more tolerable $7-ish. The mystery is part of the fun! ...Maybe? Kinda?
It’s been great getting the smaller V heroes tins from Walmart the last few week for $14.98 with 2 packs of evolving, fusion and brilliant. Way better deal 😂
I really have a hard time trusting any "mystery packs" especially when they claim you can pull a 20+ year old booster pack with a 1 in 10 chance.. but i love pokerev taking the chance for my entertainment!! lol
I feel like they also figured out a way to find the hit packs because every time I’ve ever bought one of these, I never get any thing, except for a rare and reverse hollow
I’ve recently been getting back into Pokémon and started collecting again, your videos have helped me get back into it and know what I should go for since I’m starting from scratch.
I've been thinking.. all those specialty sets. Shouldn't the tin cases (Box of 4) be much more expensive giving that they give 20 packs more than the booster bundle case for the same price? BB Case = $350 at release = 60 packs Tin case of 4 = $350-360 = 80 packs Or are people just dumb? Please correct me if I'm wrong or people are just hype buying?
you really got me back into collecting with your videos they are entertaining and fun to watch, recently I bought my first booster box and it was paradox rift and i got lucky with getting gholdengo secret rare or whatever its called and I was so hyped. hope you keep up the great work!
I actually past these up, (never good at mystery packs or bags or boxes etc...) but might just get a couple of these especially if they have Evolving Skies!!
Evo skies is 1/5 and burning shadows is 1/10. Those are the "chase". I get these for 6.99, the wife and I get a kick out of them usually a bit under par but occasionally break even.
I just don't think these Businesses selling Mystery Packs are honest enough to actually put expensive chase packs in them or even come close to the odds they represent for them. Thanks for the content Rev.
i saw these at walgreens the other day and from watching your past videos opening products like this i said nah! bought a couple paradox rift packs instead got a couple good pulls!
Yeah bro these things really suck lol. I’ve got a few when I go into Walgreens for a few things and I’ve only pulled burning shadows for the “chase pack”. They aren’t worth and the bonus cards are just throw away cards lol. They are making easy bread lol
Yeah, I am that person that will still buy ONLY BECAUSE, we don’t have these at home. I’m a Brit that binges on booster packs and mystery boxes when I visit the states 😅
i saw these at walgreens, disided to try to buy them the next day but they were all gone.... it was less then 24 hours... but cool to see whats inside :)
the reverse card as the extra always makes me mad
These videos give you a real peek into what these mystery products are all about.
“Best pack” I pulled was today burning shadows 😂
Same I also got a burning shadows
Happy Pokémon day! Pokémon presents is in only one hour from the time I posted this
I have seen these packs so many times
Every Monday I go to my local Walgreens and pick up some Pokemon packs. I saw these in a display tonight with 3 pack boxes of silver tempest and lost origin. I went with the silver tempest. Skipped the scam, I was so proud. 😂
i picked up a 3 pack of lost origin and they were all very obviously opened and resealed
🎉🎉🎉🎉 Charizard

Day 28 of commenting on every PokeRev video until I win a giveaway 🎉🎉🎉 1 MONTH WOOHOO
Day 2 of commenting on this comment🤣
I've commented on every video since covid never won!😂
I've been commenting and never even see who wins 😂
We saw a machine at the mall where you can pay $1 for a random card with pictures of Moonbreon, Chonkachu and Sleeping T-tar on the side and I've never seen such a bold scam.
got two of those today, one had silver tempest and the other had pokemon go. pulled the radiant charizard in the pokemon go pack
These, if ever found on Oahu, retail for $8.99 at our Walgreens. Pretty hefty price for what you'll most likely get in packs.
There 8.99 Msrp, but I can't find them here in CT either they are always sold out
Had a buddy pull a base set booster out of one of these. That wasn’t the craziest part though.. the cards inside were moisture damaged and all stuck together. Talk about a roller coaster of emotion. It had an Alakazam in it too

In collecting I had so much faith in these without knowing much about them and then quickly realized that they are total scams 😂😂
I'm shocked that there aren't any legal ramifications to companies like this

its 100% a scam to buy from MJ holding
I believe these are $9.99 at Walgreens. Real Breaking Nate out of 2 of his the bonus card was shiny Boltund promo card.
These mystery packs need to be audited.
That seems about right for MJ Holdings
So I started collection my first series of pokémon, the 151 collection. Should I keep the EX'es in toploaders or should I only store ilustraion to hyper rares in toploaders?
Only thing of Pokémon cards I get at Walgreens is the tins. Those can be decent
I usually just wait until I have enough store points or a coupon before buying one of these mystery packs, and then the gamble is a much more tolerable $7-ish. The mystery is part of the fun! ...Maybe? Kinda?
Agreed, I don't think it's worth the mystery chance. I'd rather buy the packs I want to buy.
These are always a scam, I haven't trusted anything similar in years.
They are about 10 bucks in store at Walgreens
Someone should audit these companies and see if it’s false advertising or real odds!
Burning Shadows HAS to be a chase pack, the fossil is probably a 1/100000 if it even has a chance
They totally should crack down on these scams and force them to be accurate with their pull claims
They will still weigh out the chase packs so really can’t stop them guys from scamming
"we've opened a different pack every time so that's kinda cool",.... "Or you could just buy the packs" 😂🤣🤣😂 that had me dying lol
I'm just going to stick with trusted sources for mystery packs, or just open a booster of a specific set. Me not knowing what I'm opening is mystery^2
It would be nice to actually see a vintage pack out of these
It’s been great getting the smaller V heroes tins from Walmart the last few week for $14.98 with 2 packs of evolving, fusion and brilliant. Way better deal 😂
I really have a hard time trusting any "mystery packs" especially when they claim you can pull a 20+ year old booster pack with a 1 in 10 chance.. but i love pokerev taking the chance for my entertainment!! lol
I'm really glad I never fell for any mystery packs like this when I was a kid. It would've driven me into the ground in terms of money...
I feel like they also figured out a way to find the hit packs because every time I’ve ever bought one of these, I never get any thing, except for a rare and reverse hollow
Thanks for the video, why did you sometimes change the angle?
The bundle packs from back in the day had better variety than this. Kinda glad we don't have these mystery packs here.
I bought 1 of these at Walgreens and some tins and my hit came from the mystery pack! I got a really off-centered Dragonite V alt art 🎉
I don't think I've ever had any luck with one pack boxes like this. They never seem worth it for me.
I’ve recently been getting back into Pokémon and started collecting again, your videos have helped me get back into it and know what I should go for since I’m starting from scratch.
Thanks for showing us all the worries with these mystery boxes!
Your videos have gotten me into trying to complete a binder for the first time with the Japanese space juggler set.
Guarantee that Burning Shadows was the "VINTAGE".
PokeRev. Stop buying these. You are single-handedly keeping this company in business.
I've been thinking.. all those specialty sets. Shouldn't the tin cases (Box of 4) be much more expensive giving that they give 20 packs more than the booster bundle case for the same price? BB Case = $350 at release = 60 packs
Tin case of 4 = $350-360 = 80 packs
Or are people just dumb? Please correct me if I'm wrong or people are just hype buying?
The reverse as a foil card is just disrespectful
you should do a co-op to see who gets the cooler pulls
Sadly, I tried the same and got duds as well, no burning shadows like you did.
As a new collector, I really appreciate these types of videos. Gives me an idea of what products to stay away from and/or purchase
Those packs are a complete scam. I avoid buying packs like that in stores. Especially since someone might have already opened and returned them
Putting packs on the front that you can’t actually pull should be illegal
Out of all the generations of this product this has had the best selection of packs
Agree with others, these should be regulated more!
you really got me back into collecting with your videos they are entertaining and fun to watch, recently I bought my first booster box and it was paradox rift and i got lucky with getting gholdengo secret rare or whatever its called and I was so hyped. hope you keep up the great work!
Where do you get your booster boxes like Evolving Skies or Lost Origins?
These mystery pack videos are super useful 😊 This way, people will know what they are buying and not waste their money. Thanks PokéRev!
I got one of these at Walgreens the other day. They're $10 which is where it becomes never worth it. Learned my lesson 😂
I actually past these up, (never good at mystery packs or bags or boxes etc...) but might just get a couple of these especially if they have Evolving Skies!!
You can’t tell me they don’t weigh the packs and the bonus card being mostly reverse holos is just ridiculous
Alot of these weird products are actually a pretty cool idea
Evo skies is 1/5 and burning shadows is 1/10. Those are the "chase". I get these for 6.99, the wife and I get a kick out of them usually a bit under par but occasionally break even.
I’m so glad we rarely get these in stores here!
Yeah, the only mystery pack I trust are ones from actual people. Not nameless corporations that don't care if you leave a bad review.
I think they put one per every 100/200 for the fossil packs.
I just don't think these Businesses selling Mystery Packs are honest enough to actually put expensive chase packs in them or even come close to the odds they represent for them. Thanks for the content Rev.
These are definitely fun to open once or twice, but not good for chasing packs.
Mj holdings seems to always be not worth the money, what a waste.
The only thing I like about these things is the mystery but if it involves a big gamble, no thank you.
Man, I opened 15 of these and got nothing but scarlet and violet. 1:10 seems like a pretty bold claim
Saw the display at my Walgreens a couple of times. Been wondering about it.
Glad you talk about this stuff so consumers know what there getting
I have gotten 1 with phantom forces. I should have left the pack sealed cause there was a non holo 😢
If you want someone to pick cards up for you like those let me know. I will do it for the cost of gas and shipping. Save you a ton of money.
I think mystery packs like these need to be opened with your “future” goggles on. Anything’s a good pull after a few decades!
i saw these at walgreens the other day and from watching your past videos opening products like this i said nah! bought a couple paradox rift packs instead got a couple good pulls!
9.99 at Walgreens. Bought 12 last week. 8 of them where pokemon go or scarlet base. Complete scam
I actually bought 1 of these and got an evolving skies pack and got an umbreon vmax. Not the alt art just the regular vmax but still cool to me
I wish the mystery packs at least gave a chance for a cool bonus card
Yeah bro these things really suck lol. I’ve got a few when I go into Walgreens for a few things and I’ve only pulled burning shadows for the “chase pack”. They aren’t worth and the bonus cards are just throw away cards lol. They are making easy bread lol
I've always steered clear from MJ Holdings and doesn't look like that's changing today lol
I got XY Phantom Forces from one of these.. I opened two :) The other was Darkness Ablaze
These types of mystery products are really not worth it.
I really wish there were some decent places to get mystery packs and boxes
These packs seem okay, but the one in 10 is not showing up 😭 But i do love the evolivng skies chances!!!
It’s amazing these companies even are allowed for this type of scam..
Yeah, I am that person that will still buy ONLY BECAUSE, we don’t have these at home. I’m a Brit that binges on booster packs and mystery boxes when I visit the states 😅
Just bought a couple pokerev packs for the first time! I've wanted to buy them for years and they're always sold out. Wish me luck!
1:23 yeah it takes time to make it get worth, too bad tho😢
Evolving skies was a nice surprise in these
My favourite pokemon is gengar
That sun and moon is a chase pack for the mystery packs
Mystery packs don't seem worth it, thanks for showing us what you can get from them
I feel there are, i bought ten, nothing cool
And this is why I watch you open it instead of buying it myself, thanks pokerev :D
Yeah i feel like the lesson learned from all of these types of videos, don't buy non-Pokemon company products off the shelves
i saw these at walgreens, disided to try to buy them the next day but they were all gone.... it was less then 24 hours... but cool to see whats inside :)
