When I was at a store I never go to today and saw these, I'm glad I decided against it. I noticed everything else had 1 or 2 boxes and these were fully stocked... That says a lot.
yo unlucky on the blaster with only 4 packs man... happened once or twice to me when i was working as a breaker. panini should do sumthin sumthin about it no?
Last year I got shorted the mojo parallels in every blaster I opened, and this year I was missing 2 packs and got 1 base rookie card in 2 boxes. The universe does not want me opening any more Flux retail haha
I bought two blasters as well with very similar results. I did get a few more base rookies but nothing even remotely good. Just not a great product. Have no idea why Panini struggles to put out decent basketball products.
I can _TOTALLY_ see how Poopnini came-about bringing back, Flux! Some of their white-collar, upper management goons said, "hey; we've got a couple bucks left in the budget. It's inevitable that we're gonna' be (effectively) out of the N.A. sportscard market in a couple-few years. How 'bout we bring back a niche product,...where fans of said product will be..."excited" to see it, and relative-noobs to the hobby will be inclined to try their hands at a..."new-to-them", product. _HOWEVER_ ,...we'll make *absolutely, certain* that there's essentially _ZERO DOLLARS_ in value in said product, and at the end of the day; *WHO* (at Poopnini!) *CARES* ...!?!?! And,...wah-lah!! That's how we came to the reintroduction of Flux 2.0
I do agree that the product is not very good but I did end up making all my money back plus extra out of one of these I did end up pulling a time flux card
Dang.. I was hoping Panini had learned their lesson after the first Flux release. Now, I'm not looking forward to the 2 mega boxes I'm waiting to be delivered #TheHobbyist
The megas look pretty rough from what I’ve seen so far. Walmart was selling them for $70! There’s only 36 cards per box so that’s about $2 per card. Those might be the most overpriced retail product ever haha
Geez! I thought Contenders retail was bad. What’s up with the different colors? They don’t match the team! This product is so weird. Whomever signed off on this needs to be GONE.
Unbelievable Panini charging $70 for a 36 card Flux Mega - no guaranteed auto, just a guaranteed piece of crap. I’ll buy the Blaster in a year when WM makes them Clearance. Thanks for sharing
Yeah these blasters and especially the megas are some of the worst retail products Panini has ever put out. I have a TOTL box coming next week, but I won’t be buying any more retail.
I had a similar experience. The only worthwhile card was a Kennedy Chandler silver prizm. Nothing #'d, only 1 other RC. 17 of the 24 cards were pure base. Barely worth it for $15, let alone $30. People, stay away!
Thanks for the warning and they still owe you those 2 packs! Also, thanks for checking out the Walmart/Target mosaic mega boxes. After I watched your video I went with the Target box and pulled a fluorescent green Luka 🔥
@@BigJBasketball I’d say it’s purely because I like cards with the most accurate photographs on them. I never managed to get any Photogenic, but that’s the style I like. Appreciate all your videos though. Great to watch!
💎 I Actually Like Flux, because they are Different...The Price isnt right tho... I like the Previous Yeats Design Better tho. The inserts are Good Looking. Yeah The Megas are Highway Tobbery, Anyone who ovrrpays for them is dumb. The Blasters are Desventtho with the Mojo & Silvers inside and the Possibility of Autographs.
Right, because in my spare time I open blaster boxes, re-seal them perfectly, and then I pretend to open them on camera to make it look like I got shorted 2 packs. There’s no chance it could have been an error when they packed this at the factory. FFS…🤦🏻♂️

If you look on the bottom of the blaster that was short packs you'll see Panini's explanation for it...... it states: Flux You
🤣
@@BigJBasketball😂
Panini with the middle finger as they leave the scene. Lol
Yeah they’re kicking all collectors in the ass on the way out
Oof this is my second video watching this year's Flux being ripped I still have yet to see a card in the hit stack lol.
Haha same here!
Rollins is in Washington. Had 13 off the bench last game
Nice good to know he’s still in the league!
Definitely! He played for Toledo, so I keep an eye on him.
These look cleaner than in years past where the design has been a mess, but overall they need to offer more on these boxes! Barely any rookies
Yeah to charge $30 for a box like this is a joke, even when they have all the packs haha
When I was at a store I never go to today and saw these, I'm glad I decided against it. I noticed everything else had 1 or 2 boxes and these were fully stocked... That says a lot.
Yeah Flux retail was one of the worst products I’ve ever opened, definitely smart move to stay away!
Sheesh, that first box! Panini shorting their collectors!
That was terrible! The other box wasn’t much better haha
yo unlucky on the blaster with only 4 packs man... happened once or twice to me when i was working as a breaker. panini should do sumthin sumthin about it no?
Yeah they should…I’ll send the box back to them and maybe they’ll send me something at some point
I apologize for laughing a lot while watching that, but *sweet potato chili* did you get shafted! 😄
Last year I got shorted the mojo parallels in every blaster I opened, and this year I was missing 2 packs and got 1 base rookie card in 2 boxes. The universe does not want me opening any more Flux retail haha
That was the most whitest thing you could’ve said 🤦♂️
im waiting for my megabox,,expecting a disaster too.
The megas are pretty rough from what I’ve seen so far!
@@BigJBasketball Good thing I bought only one. 🙂
We should do a box battle.
Terrible from panini.
I bought two blasters as well with very similar results. I did get a few more base rookies but nothing even remotely good. Just not a great product. Have no idea why Panini struggles to put out decent basketball products.
There are some good basketball products, but these blasters with only 24 cards for $30 are usually pretty terrible.

That’s gold!
Great Scott! Unbelievable
I can't believe they brought Flux back. Lol.
Yeah and they somehow made it worse haha
I do agree that the product is not very good but I did end up making all my money back plus extra out of one of these I did end up pulling a time flux card
Nice hit on that Time Flux! Those were super rare and very tough to hit.
Panini giving zero flux, no flux given
🤣🤣🤣
Dang.. I was hoping Panini had learned their lesson after the first Flux release. Now, I'm not looking forward to the 2 mega boxes I'm waiting to be delivered

@@BigJBasketball 😬
@@BigJBasketball$70 don't understand how they can justify that price at all.
@@kimtieka5645 it’s madness…I feel for anyone ripping a Flux mega at that price
$14.97 at walmart. Thinking about getting a few boxes. I'm still on the hunt for Paolo. Get it or pass???
Ehh, honestly they’re still not a great deal at $15. Maybe $10 haha
I still see a ton of these on the shelves.
Yep me too, and I leave them on the shelf every time, haha
I agree, I have bought 2 mega boxes (waste of $$). Buy at your own risk (and the cards in the video is wayyyy better than mine).
Yeah, after opening this garbage I took one look at the price tag on the megas and said no way, haha.
thanks for doing that so we don't have to
Haha I took the damage on this one for sure
Rollins plays for the Wizards now! And thanks for the video. Will not be buying this product! :) haha
Yeah I won’t be buying any more either!
Was about to buy a blaster from Target but glad you saved me $30 most likely lol
Yeah these are definitely not worth $30 haha
Geez! I thought Contenders retail was bad. What’s up with the different colors? They don’t match the team! This product is so weird. Whomever signed off on this needs to be GONE.
I kinda like some of the cards, but yeah a lot of the Flux stuff is just weird
Ugh. This is how my 4 mosaic blasters went mostly.
Mosaic has been pretty rough for me too, but this was a new low, haha
Wow thank god i skipped this at walmart today. Just wanted to see what i missed
You didn’t miss much!
The cards look nice, but those blasters were brutal.
Yeah this is such a bad retail format. I have a FOTL box coming next week, so hopefully that one is much better

$14.97 rn at walmart lol
Man rough rip….panini really dropping the ball……..
Yeah this was about as bad as it gets!
Love flux! When it hits it hits BIG! For me at least lmao😂
I don’t think I’ve ever pulled a decent card from Flux retail haha
Bought 1 box and pulled a M.L. Carr auto
Always nice to pull an auto from retail
Panini continues to crap their pants while they exit the hobby. Thankfully 😅
Haha exactly
i literally got 1 rookie card out of the entire box. WOW
Yeah these were rough!
What the Flux was that!? That was motherfluxin horrendous!
Yeah I’ll send the box with 4 packs back to Panini to see if they give me anything for it. Definitely won’t be buying any more Flux retail
Flux sux. I'm surprised they brought it back. Should have been Hoops Premium instead.
Yeah I agree - Panini put Hoops Premium in Chronicles and gave Flux its own set, but they should have reversed those.
I had a similar experience. The only worthwhile card was a Kennedy Chandler silver prizm. Nothing #'d, only 1 other RC. 17 of the 24 cards were pure base. Barely worth it for $15, let alone $30. People, stay away!
Yeah I don’t think I’d buy any more of these blasters even if they were $10!
No wonder flux is easiest to get in Australia, sending all the crap down under, cheers
Haha yeah these were garbage
Thanks for the warning and they still owe you those 2 packs! Also, thanks for checking out the Walmart/Target mosaic mega boxes. After I watched your video I went with the Target box and pulled a fluorescent green Luka 🔥
Sick hit on that Luka, congrats!
Contact Panini show them this video and they’ll make it right
Yikes that was bad.. won't be buying any Flux this year
Yeah this is the only Flux retail I’ll be opening. I did get a FOTL box so I’m excited for that!
I got an autograph Naje Marshall from flux
Nice!
Yikes...😂
It seems that both panini and topps fanatics are dropping the ball. Too bad
Yeah this one was definitely a bummer
Must say, never liked Flux. Ugly design to me. Didn’t mind it when it was in Chronicles as a rare pull.
I kinda liked the 2020-21 set and there were a couple cool inserts, but I’m definitely not a fan of this one

Yeah I definitely have some Flux cards in my PC, some of them look great. But like you said, if you’re gonna rip it, the price has to be right.
☠️
Panini literally killed me on this one
🥱🤢🤮😆
Haha yeah my thoughts exactly when I opened these.
Basketball cards have been trash lately not worth buying imo 😢
These were trash for sure
youre scammed by Panini
I’ll send the box that only had 4 packs back to them, we’ll see if they do anything about it.
Nothing appealing about this product, at all. Fugly design, garbage inserts. Thanks for the vid though, Big J.
There are some things I like about Flux, but I agree these were all trash
Yea this product sucks I bought yesterday and I didn’t even pull a rookie
Yep that sounds about right…I never bought these again after I opened these blasters
Better off just buying the hobby cuz 1 auto at least
I ripped a hobby box too, just wanted to try out the other formats as well. Needles to say, these were the only blasters I opened haha
Those cards are terrible looking.
Some of the cards are OK, but this is a terrible format for retail
the short pack was faked though. obvious.
Right, because in my spare time I open blaster boxes, re-seal them perfectly, and then I pretend to open them on camera to make it look like I got shorted 2 packs. There’s no chance it could have been an error when they packed this at the factory. FFS…🤦🏻♂️
Scamnini 😂
Haha that’s right
Sorry for your luck, but I’m never buying this garbage
Yep no more Flux retail for me either
What a waste of money!!
Yeah I got shafted on this one
