Happy Monday guys! Thankfully i recorded this before the disaster that was the Packers game so I was still in a good mood 😂 Anyway, Spectra Football hobby on Friday! Thank you all for watching! 🤟

[@mullycards8277]

Yea but had you opened after the game the case hit would have cheered you up some lol

[@mullycards8277]

And a Jordy PC hit. Always nice. And yea I agree about the vet jerseys should be game used. Especially a retired one. Panini is pumping out so much product its much cheaper for them to use a cheap jersey. And there are probably only so many game used jerseys floating around for guys unlike basketball with the 82 game seasons

[@AcmePacks]

@@mullycards8277 haha yeah the hits made it better 😄why even put mem cards in retail if they are all going to not associated with anything haha. Would rather have a numbered parallel at that point.

[@mullycards8277]

@@AcmePacks Right or at least make the jersey cards just the chunky patches and short print them all lol. Instead of just a plain napkin

[@AcmePacks]

@@mullycards8277 thats another option! At least make them look cool and make them a case hit or something. Im fine with the jersey meaning nothing if it truly looks cool

[@thejudgemontanacollector9248]

Here in South Tx we're just getting Absolute blasters and yesterday I bought 5. Out of the 5 I got 4 hits. 3 rookie mem card's and a numbered vet. But the 1st blaster was just a monster. On the very 1 st pack it had a numbered vet, a numbered rookie auto and a Breece Hall Kaboom.😳😳😲😮😊

[@AcmePacks]

Oh wow! You got some crazy good luck in that box!!

[@thurston4hits]

Congrats man! I’ve got 10 boxes to open up soon, hopefully I’m as lucky!

[@AcmePacks]

Thank you! and good luck on yours!!

[@violentsarcasm5150]

Would you recommend an Absolute blaster box for someone that wants to casually get into card collecting mainly for the purpose of just getting cards for some of your favorite players? Not trying to land super valuable cards to sell or anything like that. If not, what would you recommend?

[@AcmePacks]

Absolute is a great set so just have fun ripping and have a chance at something big! You get a ton of cards and lots of rookies, would definitely recommend it to anyone just looking to collect and have fun!

[@livelycardcollector]

I’ve opened so much of this lol not even close to hitting one of these. Such great looking cards!

[@AcmePacks]

I think between last year and this year ive opened maybe 20 blasters and this is the first thing of value ive hit 😂 i wasnt a fan at first but they look much better in person!

[@ScaryTerryCards]

I opened one of these and some of the cards were OFF CENTERED top to bottom. It was frustrating, but I didn't pull anything spectacular. I will spend more on MOSAIC, Illusions and other more premium stuff. Thanks for sharing your 6 boxes experience!

[@AcmePacks]

im really hoping mosaic retail isnt going to be watered down like i think it will be. Last year it was loaded but panini took away some things from absolute this year so i have a feeling they might with mosaic as well. Still gotta go Genessis hunting though!

[@ScaryTerryCards]

@@AcmePacks Let’s hope the QC on the centering is on point this year. I pulled a horrible card for Genesis last year: Russell Wilson Man of the Year card! 😂 this is before he stunk it up for the Broncos. I hope to hit some Honeycombs too!

[@Josh-hm4pj]

Great review!I totally agree with you about Panini pushing the hobby boxes by over producing and watering down retail.I really,really hope Mosiac is at least somewhat loaded again lol.Shout out from Toronto,Canada!

[@AcmePacks]

I will be so sad if Panini watered down Mosaic. That was one of the most fun products last year with all of the potential hits. We will know for sure in a few weeks! Thanks for watching from the great white north!

[@stephencifuentes5907]

I just bought couple of fatpacks at Wal-Mart pulled 2 numbered cards Jamison Williams blue /99 sick color match , and drake London /199 not bad !

[@AcmePacks]

Not bad at all!! Congrats!!

[@yellowsharkvisuals]

Nice hit!! I opened 6 boxes as well and got an Explosive of Patrick Mahomes. I was super hyped!!

[@AcmePacks]

Thats awesome! definitely a top 5 in the set pull!!

[@dawnvasquez1139]

So...absolute boxes...25 bux...6 packs per box...oder through target on line only? I never see them in store...actually I never seen them anywhere.. I'm a baseball guy...looking to check out bigger money wins with football...I could use a pointer or two... Starting out with absolute..and 25 per box works for me...for now... Any thoughts?

[@AcmePacks]

Absolute is a huge gamble. You can hit autos but they are as rare as the Kabooms and Explosives. Those are the only things in here that will make your money back. But the $25 a blaster is not bad for a fun rip at a chance for something huge. I would recommend purchasing from Target online so you know they wont be weighed. Mosaic Football retail should be releasing in a few weeks too and that set has been loaded in the past few years. So pick your poison!

[@96KieHD]

Really new to card collecting. What do you guys do with your bases? I have a huge amount already. Listing on eBay for minimal bids is getting tedious. 😅

[@AcmePacks]

I save my base rookies, you never know who will be good in the future. But vet base can be donated to libraries, schools, youth organizations, or my personal favorite given out to trick or treaters!

[@tedkrillies5326]

Save the rookies and parallels…I donate my base to like Goodwill just for nothing, no write off.

[@FreshWest555]

That explosive is dope glad you at least got a little something back

[@AcmePacks]

They're pretty cool inserts! Not as desirable as Kabooms but still sweet cards

[@AdamBombBreaks]

Nice pull...I agree completely with the over production. We have opened 6 or 8 blasters to this point with the best card being a Bailey Zappe Red, White and Blue Kaleidoscope. Cool card but no Kaboom!'s or Explosives. Keep up the great content!

[@AcmePacks]

No problem at all! I actually sold a lewis cine auto /50 from luminance not to long ago for $15.00 but in that product they are still wearing college unis in absolute they do have their nfl unis. Yours should be $20+

[@lionslucksportscards9835]

Awesome rip! The case hit almost paid for the rip. Absolute is absolutely brutal at retail this year. I know we’ve talked before about watering down retail and you are %100 right. Definitely seems intentional and only mosaic will tell. Last year was flooded with value. Also, I’m sorry but damn that win was awesome. I’ve never had a problem with Rodgers, but he was disrespecting my guys all year and he got his. We’re about to run this division. You think Rodgers will come back?

[@AcmePacks]

Yup! almost paid for it all! It's actually super clean so I'm gonna send it in to get graded! I agree with you on mosaic. That will truly tell if Panini is watering down retail or not. It's all good haha the better team won that game for sure. I don't see rodgers coming back after that, i've heard it both ways and I know his cap hit next year makes it extremely difficult to move on but at this point you gotta play Love and give him 2 full seasons to prove he can be the guy.

very disappointing season overall. Rodgers did not play well and the defense was terrible for 75% of the year. It really hurts me to say it but i think its time we move on and give Love a shot. Can't keep the kid on the bench forever

You yourself even complained throughout your entire video about how Absolute is “watering down” the hobby to keep their prices high on their other higher end products. That we agree on. But they’re also watering down their case hits with more KaBooms (different colors, vertical/horizontal, and numbered) and terrible inserts like Explosives to make you feel like you got something close or similar to a KaBoom. But did you? It’s all a trick to get people to buy more for WAY less. Another thing we agree on you mentioned: only buy cards of players you want. %100!
