HOT BOX ALERT!🚨 New Product: 2023-24 Panini Donruss Optic Basketball Blaster Box Review

[@huxbux]

Hey everyone! Panini released a new retail product this week. Let's review and talk about Panini's secret to their retail success. Enjoy!

[@Brutalized10]

"Ben Simmons on the purple....that's the guy you want" 😂😂😂💀💀💀

[@huxbux]

And the guy we all keep getting 😂

[@MegaVdubber]

This was a very informational video. Loved it a lot. Look forward to watching upcoming videos.

[@Nice_pulls_and_sweet_rips]

How these do not have downtowns in the retail product as a case hit is beyond me. That woukd help this retail product a lot. Along with cutting down on the print run by half.

[@huxbux]

The Phases is the "case hit" at least the comments are telling me that. It's wierd it's not on the side of the box. Can't find any info online about it either.

[@k-mark9187]

It’s only hot because flippers think it’s the same as football. lol

[@shawnmcdonald947]

I haven’t found ANY cards or the true value of my 2023-2024 Optic Super Rookie Pink Velocity Victor Wembanyama numbered cards anywhere. Mine is #13/25. It’s not graded yet. Any input or interest would be greatly appreciated.

[@ATR_cardsandbreaks]

Was able to open 3 of these yesterday, pulled a Malik Beasley auto /25 and a Beauchamp red glitter /75. Like you said before, two parts to hits. Getting the hit, then getting the player lol.

[@huxbux]

Still got the dart throws that's a plus plus. They put holes in the wall tho 🤣

[@ATR_cardsandbreaks]

@@huxbux that’s a fact lol

[@PhillyFan_RetailRips_AndMore]

Feel your small town pain, 2 walmarts here as well but I have not seen 1 Optic product at either. 😢

[@thesoonerstatediggers1262]

I bought a single and pulled an auto of Tom Van Arsdale. I had never heard of him until after the pull. I would definitely rather pull that than some dude who rides the bench. Thanks for the video.😊

[@chillxxx241]

I thought select was printed heavy. There was a ton left on the shelves for about 3 or 4 weeks. I don’t see it anymore. There seems to be much less Optic than Select in my area.

[@huxbux]

I still see it showing up on my local shelves. But 2022 is still sitting discounted. Not nearly as good tho.

[@chillxxx241]

@@huxbux We see almost no new NBA. Donruss was literally the only thing that hung around more than a month, but only because there was NBA and Monopoly Prizm. New Select also for about 3 weeks.

[@Jumpsh0tz]

i would say a checkerboard prizm is a case hit definitely a underrated sp as its an xfractor in topps

[@huxbux]

I missed it but Phases is a case hit. Not listed on the blasters but the Megas say so. I'd give this a def bump up for that.

[@mattkramer1838]

Getting 3 blasters tomorrow, wish me luck, looks like a fun product!

[@huxbux]

Hope you hit a buzzer beater!

[@hammieandson]

That was a really nice box. Numbered glitters are beautiful!

[@huxbux]

Wish I could have pulled one 😑

[@bigbomberstacker9321]

Very nice hits. I haven't seen these around in my area yet. I'll grab a few if I see them.

[@huxbux]

There worth ripping a few. Not flying off shelves which is always nice. I'm sure you'll see them. Goodluck if ya rip some.

[@fatalone8467]

I agree with you about Optic, it is my favorite line as well.

[@huxbux]

💯

[@jeffmcdonald269]

I really like Optic too. Anxious to open some. Nice rip.

[@huxbux]

Great set! Appreciate ya

[@amberhowe9392]

Thanks!

[@huxbux]

Thank you so much! One might day super thank you 😁

[@williamrichey3660]

That was a great video. I like the Opic Donruss in football and basketball. Not so much baseball just because of having no logos on the cards. But I will buy a blaster or two of the baseball.

[@huxbux]

Yea, Panini baseball def doesn't get me excited.

[@TurkeyFarmerTTV]

Great hits. Makes me excited to open mine.

[@huxbux]

Goodluck brotha!

[@BigValboski]

Should have released optic before select I feel

[@CA-oj4uc]

Just put 2 boxes in my cart 👍 Thanks for the rip!

[@huxbux]

Goodluck my man!

[@lionslucksportscards9835]

Really nice boxes. Most I’ve seen have been dusty enough to scare me off the product.

[@huxbux]

I probably got the best or 2nd best box in the case it came out of. Optic retail has never been that good unfortunately.

[@Kramer7969]

This week my walmart hasn't done a restock. I didn't even get a chance to decide to not buy these.

[@huxbux]

🤣 Maybe they saved you some money. My one walmart doesn't restock until later in the week. They've waited till Saturday before.

[@3timeconor]

Excellent information on optic blasters

[@huxbux]

👍

[@ryanblaze932]

I hope lucky number seven is going to work out for me cuz I got seven of these coming on Monday.

[@huxbux]

Goodluck brotha!

[@ryanblaze932]

@@huxbux Thanks bro

[@1CrazySRT]

I'm sitting this one out and buying more Select. I'll just wait for the market to get flooded and buy what I like. I've wasted tons with optic once before not again.

[@huxbux]

Probably a good call. Optic is hard to hit retail and hobby both.

[@HighLifeHobby]

I like Optic a lot. Even the football cellos lol. I just can’t wait to get blasters. Haven’t been able to get any until now as the NBA blasters were released. So pumped. Great hits in that last box brother! 🤙🏻

[@huxbux]

As the old saying goes, "Even Fat Packs need lovin' too".

[@ERD9988]

Fun unboxing ❤

[@Alaey_B11]

Super love it 🤩🔥

[@WavyWavy2]

Congratulations! 🎉

[@ethanp1295]

I think the overprint will kill some of the value but still think its a cool set to collect for fun.

[@huxbux]

One of my favorite sets to collect for sure

[@RetailRipper]

been to three stores and all got a case.

[@huxbux]

Doubt it'll be a problem getting ahold of these at all.

[@MoWhiCards]

Enjoyed the rip. Thanks

[@huxbux]

Appreciate the watch!

[@autograph415]

they actually look good, i havent been a optic fan in years

[@huxbux]

I've always liked Optic as a card. Boxes not so much.

[@autograph415]

@@huxbux i liked them back in the day i would say around lukas draft was probaly the last year i liked how the set looked

[@tmoney819]

Thats funny. Just ran into walmart and a guy was stocking a full case of these.

[@huxbux]

I have a feeling it's gonna be the kind of product that won't be hard to get

[@ez001]

Great hits

[@dennylee7312]

Was that blazing saddles at the beginning 😅

[@huxbux]

It most def was

[@civicminim]

Love this

[@robertvasquez4855]

I don't agree with this years optic being bad like other years because this year there is a case pull. Phazes is a case hit and there is a Wembanyama Phazes!!

[@huxbux]

I saw Phases but hadn't seen any info on them on any checklist. Didn't know what to make of them. Typically, SSP and case hits are printed on the side of the box. I'd probably bump my rating up to 3/5 if they are case hits. Thanks for the info.

[@longj3471]

I don’t know what to chase in donruss and donruss optic honestly. auto? We know that panini never put good auto in supermarket retail. Wemby? Thank god they have wemby this year, this year sells a lot better than other years. But they definitely should have ssp in it, even they are just some ssp parallel like honeycomb and genesis

[@huxbux]

It's all about the Wemby this year. Autos out of retail are generally so bad it's laughable.

[@PackAPunchCards]

Love retail this year

[@bretpatterson6736]

Keep up with the cool 😎 videos

[@hbtwice]

entertaining, just subbed

[@huxbux]

Thanks my man 👊

[@Bojii777]

The last box was the best

[@huxbux]

By far and away

[@PrakashRao-j4h]

How far has Klay Thompson fallen!? Putting Chris Paul with Steph Curry on that Optical Illusions card is a huge missed opportunity. They were the Splash Bros. and won four rings! Paul played 60 games, if that. Awesome video and appreciate the recap. I love Optic too and have a poor-decision-amount of Blasters coming next week.

[@huxbux]

I'd like to think it's tongue in cheek and Paul's the Optical Illusion. That's giving Panini alot of credit. Enjoy the rip. It'll be fun either way. May the hits be plentiful.

[@dylangenschaw]

I think the Phazes insert is case hit

[@huxbux]

Had a couple comments saying as much. Wonder why it's not on the side of the box.

[@PrinceSlap]

Sick!

[@24skeemers]

Nice Brandon miller!

[@huxbux]

Saved the day!

[@ElPolloLowkz]

i bought some today at walmart !!!!!

🍀

[@Thomaswilliams-yx9rt]

Nice video.

[@huxbux]

Thanks for watching!

[@HeMadNice]

HUX with the rip!

[@FFMCardsandMore]

As long as you go in knowing it is retail, then you shouldn't be disappointed. Thinking it is going to get you crazy hits will always disappoint you.

[@huxbux]

True. When I talk about a retail product, I'm talking about it against other retail products. There are great retail products out there. Just doesn't happen often 😒

[@FFMCardsandMore]

@@huxbux So true. The price point is pretty revealing on the retail. Select and Prizm are usually pretty good, but you pay more for them.

[@dustyh7]

You've had a run of luck lately. Wtg hux!

[@NastyCards_Lawks]

Looks like some 💨 “smoking aces” #iloveit

[@NastyCards_Lawks]

I also want the OMProsper 🤓😎

[@huxbux]

That last box for sure 👌

[@tomchang732]

The design looks clean but the inserts look weak.

[@huxbux]

Agreed. Alot of the inserts look bad unless it's in a prizm.

[@longj3471]

donruss and optic bkb needs to at least has one ssp in it, like downtown or even some new ssp. Otherwise, they are trash to me.

[@huxbux]

So I've been told Phases is a case hit in retail this year. It's odd it's not on the side of the box at all. So for the first time basketball retail has a case hit. It's a horizontal design. Dunno how it'll be received but for that I'd bump my rating up to 3/5.

[@longj3471]

@@huxbux nice to hear that they have a case hit in blaster BKB!

[@ryanblaze932]

I just watched your optic football value packs. I still think select basketball 2024 is the best product of the year so far. GO Mavs 💯👍😊

[@huxbux]

I think so. The Donruss football Megas were good to but didn't have the same ceiling. Select all day.
