IT DELIVERS! 💥 PRICE MATTERS🚨 PRODUCT REVIEW: 2023-24 Panini Phoenix Basketball Blaster Box

[@huxbux]

Whats up everyone! On paper, this video is a good one. You'll have to watch to find out. 😉 Enjoy!

[@KevinSchaefer23]

I really like the designs on these, especially the Fade to Black.

[@kt8384]

I liked the mega box version. Hopefully, these blasters are better

[@killakvn]

Opened my first Phoenix blaster last night and I pulled a Swen Nater White Laser auto /99 + Quentin Grimes color match Blue Laser /275 + Wemby Temple Men + Bilal Coulibaly Teal Laser from a single box! 🔥 😎

[@jeffstallard1796]

Great pulls and the first box was the best 👌 with the wemby card. Some cool 😎 looking cards and the silver ones look super clean. Thanks for sharing this.

[@huxbux]

I dig Phoenix. It's not for everyone tho.

[@notangel8328]

I pulled a paragon red ice wemby and a normal base wemby rc as well as /249 orange ice Jalen Duren and an Amir Coffey auto from a mega box. My favorite retail products so far, the cards just feel and look great imo

[@maxsanjuan2524]

I ordered 3 blasters from Target. Thanks for the review

[@Coolectable]

Scheels pullin a fast one on us with that price increase overnight. Gotta love it. Good review 👍🏼

[@HighLifeHobby]

Every. Single. Time. Whenever someone posts a link I show up too late for the original sale price. 🤬

[@huxbux]

And $25 feels like the right price, too. SRP be damned.

[@jamescromwell1793]

Love the vids and the humor!!! Always fun to watch you..

[@harrybrass007]

I love your videos!!! You're a breath of fresh air in all the dilluted product breakers on KZbin except for Degan rips!!! You two are the best and keep it real. Your input and views run along with how I think!!! I feel I could talk cards with you for hours... Ty for the hard work and the vids!!!!

[@huxbux]

Might be the best comment I've gotten in awhile. So, thank you. I just try and make my videos semi entertaining. Most cards videos are short on production value and light on info.

[@harrybrass007]

@huxbux You have experience and talent, bro. Don't go so lightly on yourself. There are a few different types of collectors, and you're not the other 2. You actually like the cards not so much for value, but the design or the picture. I have many cards in my pc that aren't worth more than a quarter..

[@nathanhamilton2214]

Thanks for the videos, always a good watch

[@huxbux]

Thanks for watching!

[@xdabeast6002]

The start of this video was so cool, I subbed!

[@huxbux]

Welcome to the channel! Hope to see you around.

[@mattkramer1838]

Looks like a fun little rip, definitely gives me Mosaic vibes

[@huxbux]

Numbered cards seem a bit more frequent than Mosaic but there def adjacent.

[@generationhoops1307]

Your videos are top notch. Thanks for the clear information and review. I might have to go for those $25 blasters. Thanks as always my man!

[@huxbux]

I try to be better. So i appreciate it. Sadly Scheels bumped up the price to $30 today. Still the cheapest. I'd be on the fence at $30.

[@steved3044]

New to all of this. Like watching all the cards being opened

[@StickyGreenStuff]

PHOENIX **BLOWS AWAY** DECA !! >> LOVE IT ! >> Quality, designs, and Value BOTH 10x better !!

[@sca3744]

Nice phoenix set.. teal looks cool too.. thank you for sharing

[@PullSumHeat]

Love the color from these

[@damienmanley2900]

Glad to finally get some good info on them. Still contemplating as they cost heaps in Australia (everything does with NBA cards😭)

[@Weider-127]

That mega box is MINE!

[@basjelode]

Thanks for the vids

[@adamthatoneguy8221]

Great new product!!!

[@jamesbegley3757]

Sweet Wemby. Thanks for the break down

[@huxbux]

Thanks for watching!

[@philbarrs6679]

Great video

[@donnyleonard8576]

Entertaining video it was a lot of foon and great info! I agree with everything you said about the set but have noticed the autos do seem to be popping up a lot in the videos I've watched a I pulled 1 out the 3 boxes I ripped. They have all been subpar names though. Saw Sheels had the Blasters for $25 this morning and Megas for $50. I grabbed a couple of Megas went back to look again just now and the Blasters are up to $30 each. Nice Wemby hit and GL on your next rip!

[@huxbux]

A viewer pointed out they bumped up the price. Disappointing. I watched a couple case breaks and autos weren't flying out that frequently. There's a few good names but it's retail. Gotta love retail autos!

[@donnyleonard8576]

@@huxbux Glad to hear that I got luck on my auto! Yeah the price hike stinks but it makes it easier for me to avoid buying more lol! Thanks again Hux!

[@patrickcrabtree3162]

I pulled a numbered to 175 luka in retail box a few days ago. Blue Lazer i think

[@richardanzlovar5372]

I will get at least 1 blaster box of these.

[@ScaryTerryCards]

Thanks for saving me lots of money. Have a great weekend!

[@huxbux]

Even more now. Scheels raised blasters to $30. Have a safe weekend!

[@ScaryTerryCards]

@@huxbux I did check Scheels and saw that! Greedy people! 😆

[@havefun1796]

Nice box just bought one

[@huxbux]

Goodluck!

[@theclutchball5960]

Great review brader

[@jasonknox7086]

Scheels is now 29.99 I went in store yesterday

[@RogerMurdick]

I love the look and feel of phoenix, the price of them not so much…lol

[@SoulFlowCollects]

So they basically took the Phoenix cards from Chronicles and the Inserts from Illusions and came out with this set, interesting 👀

[@huxbux]

Pretty much 😐

[@SoulFlowCollects]

@@huxbux I like Illusions inserts, probably why I bought the product and some of those Phoenix cards look sick! Congrats 😮‍💨🔥

[@jeffmcdonald269]

Great review. Nice looking cards. I don't usually buy Phoenix in football and I don't think I'll buy these either. Too many sets .Can't believe it but i'm tired of chasing Wemby if there were games going on it might be different. Looking forward to seeing his progression this season.

[@huxbux]

Kinda with you. Got a little Wemby fatigue. Have a great weekend man!

[@brentonbishop6621]

Love it , on paper

[@huxbux]

Everything's better on paper 😉

[@CharlesCalvin-l6f]

Always enjoy

[@huxbux]

Thanks for watching! Have a great weekend.

[@jeffstallard1796]

Super funny intro 🤣 😂

[@huxbux]

Came to me in a moment of comedic clarity 😁

[@ashtoncov]

Curious on how these will sell

[@JoaoSantos-rz7le]

nice video

[@PrakashRao-j4h]

Awesome video! After seeing the amount of numbered cards, I thought these and the megas would be loaded so I jumped on them when they landed on Walmart (call it Premium Stock Premium Box FOMO, even though I did get two but wanted 200). I was unpleasantly surprised to learn that a) they were clearly printed to the moon and b) I could get them much cheaper if I wanted five days. Maybe the Scheel's versions have less rookies or numbered? Just never seen such a large price disparity for seemingly the exact same brand new product. Does Panini do suggested retail prices or is it entirely up to the distributor?

[@huxbux]

I think there's gonna be alot of Premium spill over going on for the next week or so. There is a SRP price on all wax. It's generally nowhere near sell price. And there's generally only Excel or MJHolding versions of Panini retail. Not sure which one Scheels gets.

[@PrakashRao-j4h]

@@huxbux Well, hubux, I am also on a high with high expectations after both the Premium Boxes and your wonderful recommendation to grab some Donruss International. From three boxes (two of which were broken), I pulled two wemby bases, b miller red/gold, 4 net marvels (including two Lukas), 2 Lebron unleashed, two rookie autos...lots of other cool cards. Any other recommendations for low cost, awesome hobby boxes (from any year and already got the Elite International based on your recommendation)?

[@shatteredcubes]

i opened one blaster box and got a wemby, tatum genies case hit, and 2 #'d cards

[@huxbux]

I'd call that a hot box. Nice pulls!

[@marolover100]

I hope you got a couple of Wembys.

[@lancemckee6905]

What was that cut right before you mentioned jarace walker’s card?

[@huxbux]

Me sneezing 🤕

[@RonLoranger-cz9tb]

A lot of rookies compared to hobby. Nice looking cards

[@xvoidablex]

What packs should I be looking to get?

[@huxbux]

Sport? Budget? For basketball right now I think Donruss International is the best budget rip. I like Select basketball hobby if you can find it at or around $500.

[@robertohelpme6021]

What shells? Website or how you spell it

[@adelinared1]

SO what do you recommend in blaster for 2023-24 basketball? I've spent a bunch on mosaic and haven't found much.

[@huxbux]

Retail is generally not great, especially Mosaic. If I had to recommend one, it'd be the Select blasters.

[@scottieclark2401]

Nice at least you got 1 victor😂 thanks for sharing

[@huxbux]

Thanks for watching!

Sweeeet Bilal 🔥

Ja too 🔥

[@sagogulaman6298]

Do you have the link for the website? Thanks, awesome vid as always

[@huxbux]

Sad to say they bumped up the price to $29.99 today. They were $24.99 on Thursdsy when they dropped. Super disappointing to see. Here's a link. www.scheels.com/p/2023-24-panini-phoenix-basketball-nba-blaster-box/18467-2-15856-20MO20

[@sagogulaman6298]

@@huxbux appreciate the reply man. Thanks

[@danefuller2664]

Decent product, I agree with the poor design/name for the Temple Men cards...should of called it Templar or Deity maybe 🤔

[@PrinceSlap]

Funniest intro by far 😂

[@paulcole87]

On paper this is a great comment, you'll have to read it to find out. Great video, great review. Even at the $25 price point the all base packs are still disappointing.

[@huxbux]

Found out thru a viewer Scheels raised the price. Super bummer.

[@philly1110]

Phoenix football is one of my favorites. But the basketball seems a little disappointing. I'm still going to buy a box or two though. Lol.

[@huxbux]

If you like the set it's worth ripping a box or two. Wouldn't go ham on it.

[@louielozano5534]

Soooo… how much you want for that PSA 20 Wemby?

[@huxbux]

It's priceless. Plus I don't need the money...on paper.

[@patrickcrabtree3162]

Also i paid less than 25 for it at Walmart

[@nate1111-b4u]

Gamestop has them for 25 also

[@huxbux]

With a Pro membership I'm guessing?

[@nate1111-b4u]

@huxbux actually no. Non members. It was even cheaper with pro. I wanna say 23.99

[@JakeRothbard]

Let’s gooo

[@huxbux]

Yes, sir!

[@AndrewCalvetti-dm8gu]

I opened 7 Blasters and not a one Wembanyama! Not a base, Parrallel, Numbered, Auto! I've had horrible luck pulling his cards. I had better luck with Mosaic, except I kept pulling the same Thunder Road Green & Silver prizm insert, a bunch of his Base cards and 1 silver mosaic NBA Debut.

[@huxbux]

Retail can be a cruel mistress.

[@justinsandoval2383]

Boxes are 29.99 at Shells. Nobody is selling these below SRP (which is 29.99). Might wanna edit this video considering 24.99 is not an option.

[@huxbux]

Then they raised their price. They were absolutely $24.99 Thursday. It's unfortunate they decided to bump it up. Def makes the cost analysis less relevant. Thanks for pointing out the price hike.

[@justinsandoval2383]

They listed below SRP by mistake thinking it was a non-chrome product.

[@huxbux]

​@justinsandoval2383 Yea. $25 feels right for a low end chrome product. SRP be damned.

[@FFMCardsandMore]

Auto definitely rare! Good looking cards, though!

[@huxbux]

I've always liked Phoenix. It's busy but I like busy. I like clean designs too. I like everything apparently 🤣

[@MrJdeck59]

"Shell" lol

[@Underrated_Cardboard]

Black 1/1 Wembanyama PSA 20 😂😅 SOLD....!!!!!

[@huxbux]

Due to my extensive wealth...on paper, I'm willing to part with such an exquisite card for a mere 5 gold pieces. Did I sound rich? 🤔

[@DanielHarrison1384]

How are the dimples on the silver? My mosaic silvers all look like a 14 year old face that hasn’t discovered face wash yet.

[@huxbux]

Not great. Some worse than others.

[@royschwartz2974]

If I get anything these days, it's blasters.

[@Pupton71]

Great video, hope I win

[@moonuni]

On papr i have billy elish and Sophia loren as my girlfriend s 😅

[@Comicbookyoutubersrock]

4:43 Wemby retail exclusive est value $25. Uhhh, sell that IMMEDIATELY. If that's worth $25 somehow now, I can guarantee you in a month it will be worth $5. His patch card #'d to 75 from a hobby box just sold for $107. No way base cards are going to last at $25, if it's even truly worth that much now.

[@huxbux]

Comps are at the time of recording. New release prices are always stupid high. I probably don't say it enough but sell release week. Buy back later. So you're correct prices will plummet.
