This is my first year opening current year packs since 1994. I watch alot of RUclips channels in baseball cards for entertainment. Your channel and one other have definitely provided me the needed education to figure out collecting modern cards.
You guys must be the reason we hear about what a parallel is... again. Obviously he sees the numbers so takes the time to explain to new viewers even tho I know he probably just feels like only his mouth is moving repeating this jazz that we think everyone knows.. but Obviously not everyone
Stryker with the Philly city connect, let's go! Watching this at work and just got notified my fanatics boxes are now waiting for me at home, can't wait!
I got the same fanatics blaster as your first one. 6/9 aquas were the same including Merrill, Shota, and Skenes. Then I got a black insert parallel like yours out of 299 but it was an all class. Very suspicious. Great video none the less. These fanatic blasters are fun!!
I ordered 3 boxes of this to test it out. Pulled Willie Mays and paul skenes black gold AND a blue black gold Aaron judge. After watching this I ordered 6 more because it is very fun opening these. Hopefully 6 more black golds LOL. Also pulled blue mystical Jackson churio, Ben brown patch, and 5 numbered cards so I’d say BUY THIS UP
So beautiful 😍 I love my fanatics blasters...1st box had a golden mirror..2nd box had a blue shimmer Ohtani HFA Lee and 3rd box had Skenes and Merril aquas 🤜💥🤛best value for sure
Mine are coming today!!! I really wish they did some Aqua parallels of inserts too! Would be cool to get like a ‘Let Him Cook’ in an Aqua or something like that
Bought 4 fanatics boxes and got them last night. Best hit Black Gold Skenes to /299. Also a game used all star relic from Imanaga. Two solids. A PP2 Judge (2nd one I've gotten) best from my jumbo hobby was my Chourio auto. Aquas didn't hit much mostly just like those double players like ohtani/Yamamoto or holiday/henderson those were the best Aquas. But yeah the fanatics boxes were pretty loaded i agree. One rainbow one royal blue per box 9 aquas per box 2 to 3 numbered per box. Solid buy.
Ripped my 8 today, hit every aqua chase except the true Holliday no mirrors HFA or lumber though. Quite a few blue parallels and a mystical Trea Turner /10
I opened 4 boxes and each had 2 hits, including a blue let him cook and a blue autumn tales. Also pulled a aqua true rookie Chourio and Skenes and a gold Pete Crow Armstrong. Just ordered 4 more boxes before they're gone forever. Awesome video as always Stryker!
I came back and checked out video and was really happy you put up the cheat sheet you have. I went and was able to buy 4x blaster value boxes (not fanatics) locally. As the second box was opened I pulled a home field advantage and remembered in your videos talking about how great of a hit those are. Well as I’m looking at the card I noticed the cards are #’d HFA# yet I realized mine said LHA# and that’s when I realized what legendary home field advantages are. I pulled a don mattingly HFA and couldn’t be more happy and had to share here!
Just ordered a few of these, even though I'm in Canada. The price ends up being just slightly above the blaster price at Walmart here, even with shipping and duties. Not that my Walmart HAS any, because they don't. I've been checking every two days for a couple weeks now.
Love it every now and then when you breakdown the parallels vs numbered ECT stuff. It's going to benefit you largely in your streams when these new comers pop In and haven't been informed yet, and ask those SMH questions. Your success is going to attract more of em lol get ready. Much love!
Amazing openings! Don't get me wrong. I am a fan of aqua, but the Halloween just hit different. Maybe because the opportunity for #/50. Thank you for sharing, and congrats on the hits!
These boxes are great, I opened one recently with a damaged blue parallel do you suggest contacting topps? Thanks for putting together these charts as a data nerd this has been so helpful in buying the right boxes for our kid as he rips his first packs.
I’m seeing a really bad collation. My eight boxes were very identical to each other. Lot of dupes. I think next year I’ll order a couple boxes every couple days
Stryker, these Fanatics blasters are great, and so are both of your blaster videos! I got 3 on Sunday. One box had TWO black golds. A black black gold /299 of Paul Skenes (!!!) and regular black gold Hank Aaron! I paused your video to go buy 4 more from Fanatics, using your link, of course. 🫡 My first box was okay, but the 2nd and 3rd had more big names. Big fun ripping! Thanks!
Stryker - An interesting video would be to see a card pull to grading to listing on eBay to sale process. To compare - in the Craft Beer world; brewers would call it grain to glass.
What's good, Stryker!?! I'm glad I could watch this video before I have to go to work. I'm just starting the video, so, I hope you pull some monster hits!
A standard blaster has 7 packs with 12 cards. At $25 that's 3.57 a pack. A fanatics blaster has 9 packs with 12 cards. At $30 that's $3.33 a pack. The fanatics are a better value just in price. Ordered 4 today.
When u think the primary color scheme i belove your referring to.. think la lakers or new york Mets.. your thinking of Michigan maybe.. blue and yellow def jive..
Hey quick question I’m new to the hobby, just pulled an auto Jordan lawlar Topps blackgold numbered 18/25 any idea what’s it worth? Please help! Love the video btw
If you treat like a hobby and sell/trade it can be fun. If you are trying to make a living at this, it becomes living in the margins and only volume works. But then it loses the fun.
i really enjoy these videos dude. its very few and far between the guys that put their money where their mouth is. everybody is like this is what "you" should spend "your" money on and Stryker over here talking about this is what "I'm" spending "my" money on. lets go. i like turtles
This is my first year opening current year packs since 1994. I watch alot of RUclips channels in baseball cards for entertainment. Your channel and one other have definitely provided me the needed education to figure out collecting modern cards.
I just got into the hobby and Stryker has taught me SOOO much. Can you share the other channel that you have found helpful?
You guys must be the reason we hear about what a parallel is... again. Obviously he sees the numbers so takes the time to explain to new viewers even tho I know he probably just feels like only his mouth is moving repeating this jazz that we think everyone knows.. but Obviously not everyone
Me too. Stryker is doing a great service to us
Try jabs family . Him and Stryker are my go to 😊
you missed big on some years 😅
Because of your advice, I bought a bunch of Update fat packs. Pulled a /25 Wyatt Langford relic auto. Thank you, Stryker, for always crushing!! ❤
That Jackson Merrill Aqua is the best looking Aqua I have seen so far. Helmet color match is insane.
It’s aquariffic
I pulled an Autograph Redemption from a Fanatics Exclusive Blaster - Ryan Sandburg autographed Cubs Jersey. Nice Surprise!
available.. im a sandberg collector
Love that blue Elly! Awesome rip! Great value in these Fanatics boxes! Thanks Stryker!!
Love the look of the aqua parallels.
That was a fun rip and that first box set the tone
Yep, that color match with the Citi Connect Jersey is money $$$
i got some card shellz penny sleeves and top loaders and they are so sweet dude. definitely silky smooth and crystal clear
Stryker with the Philly city connect, let's go! Watching this at work and just got notified my fanatics boxes are now waiting for me at home, can't wait!
Thanks Stryker for the transparency! Awesome job! 👏🏼
I love the back to back videos! Just got done the first and this one was up right after.
That first box was absolutely insane!
Dude you slayed it on the names congrats this was what i like to see
I got the same fanatics blaster as your first one. 6/9 aquas were the same including Merrill, Shota, and Skenes. Then I got a black insert parallel like yours out of 299 but it was an all class. Very suspicious. Great video none the less. These fanatic blasters are fun!!

Hopefully 6 more black golds LOL. Also pulled blue mystical Jackson churio, Ben brown patch, and 5 numbered cards so I’d say BUY THIS UP
That was a helluva first box. Awesome pulls. Your info is very helpful. People should watch and learn. Keep posting these awesome videos.
Awesome product and video!! Thanks. Can’t wait to receive my order.
You're a bright spot in this hobby. Kudos.
Thank you for everything you do for the hobby!!!
Awesome rip! Pulled the Ohtani HFA and it looks beautiful
Ty so much for the advice! U earned a new sub! The rookies will go up in value correct?
Bro, you are spittin facts. You a leader in this hobby. Getting my channel started because of you.
If I've learned anything from this and the last video, it's that this is the best way to get a Nolan Schanuel Stars of the MLB.
That was amazing from the jump. Nice to see you ripping all those target player aquas. I’m grabbing a couple for sure
I have 10 boxes in-transit. I'd be happy if my boxes are half as good as this break. Congrats!
Was lucky enough to hit a Randy Arozarena Autograph bat redemption out of series two. Hopefully i can ht one in update.
Wow. You crushed it with this run of blasters.
You absolutely killed this rip! If I can do anywhere close to what you just did I will be happy. Once again, thanks for bringing the great content!
This first box is on 🔥. Wow!
I didn’t read close enough that 8 were a case and ordered 6….oops. Looking forward to mine getting here Thursday!
Ordered 10 fanatics blasters. Some should come this week and some next. Great break of 8, congrats.
Wow first box coming thru right away grats!
So beautiful 😍 I love my fanatics blasters...1st box had a golden mirror..2nd box had a blue shimmer Ohtani HFA Lee and 3rd box had Skenes and Merril aquas 🤜💥🤛best value for sure
Mine are coming today!!! I really wish they did some Aqua parallels of inserts too! Would be cool to get like a ‘Let Him Cook’ in an Aqua or something like that
Awesome as always! Still waiting on mine to come in. Almost 2 weeks since ordering. You had better luck on the aqua's this time around for sure
i think that was the best personal break ive seen you have in years. maybe not a huge banger but loads of good hits. congrats!
I finally got mine in today. Got a true Holiday and Skenes aqua. Judge Paw too lol. Wish I bought more but on a budget
Thanks for the video! You hit fort the cycle with this break with a grand slam on this break. Unreal.
Nice case! Love that Merrill Aqua!
Bought 4 fanatics boxes and got them last night. Best hit Black Gold Skenes to /299. Also a game used all star relic from Imanaga. Two solids.

I have 4 boxes coming, very excited
Ripped my 8 today, hit every aqua chase except the true Holliday no mirrors HFA or lumber though. Quite a few blue parallels and a mystical Trea Turner /10
Got 5 boxes, pulled the aqua Skenes and Holliday rookies along with a bunch of good rookie debuts. Aqua QC is great like you said.
My boys Sal Frelic & Brice Terang got Golden Gloves! I plan to snag a ton of these!
Get me riled up brother! My boxes are coming tomorrow
I opened 4 boxes and each had 2 hits, including a blue let him cook and a blue autumn tales. Also pulled a aqua true rookie Chourio and Skenes and a gold Pete Crow Armstrong. Just ordered 4 more boxes before they're gone forever. Awesome video as always Stryker!
Wow nice pulls waiting on mine to come! Can’t wait to rip them
Let’s go Stryker! Fire 🔥 time
I just saw Target has hanger boxes on the app now. Just ordered 3 as that’s the max quantity I could order at one time.
I came back and checked out video and was really happy you put up the cheat sheet you have. I went and was able to buy 4x blaster value boxes (not fanatics) locally.
As the second box was opened I pulled a home field advantage and remembered in your videos talking about how great of a hit those are.

Always a great breakdown!!! Great math my guy!!!

Much love!
that skenes was sick
🔥 vid as usual.
I went to a nearby Walmart that’s ALWAYS sold out of ‘24 Update and they had ONE left!
Last box mojo cmon! Wish me luck….
Nice break and keep up great work Stryker!!!💪🇺🇸⚾️✨
Going to order some myself now after watching this lol ❤❤
Amazing openings! Don't get me wrong. I am a fan of aqua, but the Halloween just hit different. Maybe because the opportunity for #/50. Thank you for sharing, and congrats on the hits!
I love it! I need some!
Nice rip man. Pullin the fire
These boxes are great, I opened one recently with a damaged blue parallel do you suggest contacting topps? Thanks for putting together these charts as a data nerd this has been so helpful in buying the right boxes for our kid as he rips his first packs.
They are loaded the first box I ripped had a skenes true rookie aqua and the last box had a skenes HFA!!
I’m seeing a really bad collation. My eight boxes were very identical to each other. Lot of dupes. I think next year I’ll order a couple boxes every couple days
Awesome rip, looks very fun to rip and chase. I wanna see Topps make stars of the mlb chrome autos, or just get rid of them lol
Stryker, these Fanatics blasters are great, and so are both of your blaster videos! I got 3 on Sunday. One box had TWO black golds. A black black gold /299 of Paul Skenes (!!!) and regular black gold Hank Aaron!

Stryker - An interesting video would be to see a card pull to grading to listing on eBay to sale process. To compare - in the Craft Beer world; brewers would call it grain to glass.
Nice Hat!
Based up your numbers of 900 of each aqua, there only 24,750 Fanatics boxes produced.
I want to know where the redemptions are!
Can you make a video on making a play set? How do you get rid of your base bulk?
Awesome rip my man I have 15 of these boxes on the way
What's good, Stryker!?! I'm glad I could watch this video before I have to go to work. I'm just starting the video, so, I hope you pull some monster hits!
I’m pretty new at card collecting so question. What do you do with all the base cards ? I wanna sell them but don’t really know how.
I’ll buy that Merrill off you right now.
Just me or is the QC not great? All my aquas are slightly OC.
A standard blaster has 7 packs with 12 cards. At $25 that's 3.57 a pack. A fanatics blaster has 9 packs with 12 cards. At $30 that's $3.33 a pack. The fanatics are a better value just in price.
Ordered 4 today.
So I like the scott barlow card. Only cuz we have same last name.
Are you sending these off to get graded or putting them up directly to sell?
When u think the primary color scheme i belove your referring to.. think la lakers or new york Mets.. your thinking of Michigan maybe.. blue and yellow def jive..
There was 35,000 Fanatics Blaster boxes made then.
Fire dude
It blows me away that my eight boxes didn’t have one black gold.
Hey Stryker.. Any chance that gold Harper is for sale??
The key is that you didn’t wear the aqua hat for this one. Started off hot 🔥🔥🔥
Any chance your going to have white Sox lot on your site ..just checking for the PC ..keep on cracking brother..CFFL..
I put in 2 orders of 8 fanatics boxes on 10/25 and it still says pending. Sad. Been watching your videos and learning so much. Congrats on the rip
Are there golden mirrors in update? For some reason I remember seeing anybody open one so far.
Love these pc videos 👍
Hey quick question
I’m new to the hobby, just pulled an auto Jordan lawlar Topps blackgold numbered 18/25 any idea what’s it worth? Please help! Love the video btw
How are the aquas selling? More/less than a blue?
I’m trying to order some but the order keeps on canceling any fix?
you dont do any shipping OS right ? so cant buy in on a break ?
If you treat like a hobby and sell/trade it can be fun. If you are trying to make a living at this, it becomes living in the margins and only volume works. But then it loses the fun.
Love the content! Been watching for a few years now but I’ve always appreciated what you do!
i pulled an elly let him cook /75
I just pulled a Ken Griffey jr auto out of my last box
i really enjoy these videos dude. its very few and far between the guys that put their money where their mouth is. everybody is like this is what "you" should spend "your" money on and Stryker over here talking about this is what "I'm" spending "my" money on. lets go. i like turtles
How do I purchase a spot in one of your breaks?
What is your favorite mlb team
