🚨NEW RELEASE🚨HOW IS THIS FORMAT? 🤔 2024 TOPPS ARCHIVES FAT PACKS

[@ef5toychaser382]

I just picked up 4 2024 Topps Update Super boxes for 20.00 a piece. I’m not sure if that’s a trend or a coincidence at Walmart. They’re loaded 2 golden mirrors, 1 camo, and 2 relics to 75

[@GoheenCrazySports]

I don't collect much baseball, but for sure going to get some fat packs. Love the 94 inserts!

[@ryanbriskin]

I’m a fan of your skill in opening these packs…and your channel of course

[@westernnycards]

Thanks man! These packs are gonna give me hand muscles 😂

[@devinwalk6513]

I'm shocked by some of these sets' quality issues. I saw a video of the new Bowman's Best recently where 1/4 of the cards were horribly off center. Some of them were so miscut they had parts of other cards attached. Then again, I've bought clothes from Fanatics so I shouldn't be surprised.

[@NightmareInMoloch]

i grabbed two fact packs at target this am and pulled a Merrill yellow, a Skenes base RC, and a horribly off center Elly RC.

[@TimYaBoy1717]

Great video. Love the yellow inserts even if thats the value of the fat pack. Nice Junior & Jung Hoo Lee yellows! The image on Lee's card is super cool. He said recently that he's fully recovered and ready for the new season, hopefully he gets to show his full talent level!

[@westernnycards]

I’m very interested to see how he does!!

[@Smilezz68]

Love your channel bud..👍

[@westernnycards]

Thank you!

[@D-Townsportscardsrips]

Got some nice inserts and yellow foils.

[@grandmasterPRA]

I got 3 Blasters of this in the mail today. It's wasn't all that bad. I was surprised to not get any variants but I did get an on-card numbered auto (Alec Marsh /50) so it's not impossible I guess to get some stuff out of it. 3 Blasters is a small sample size though.

[@clauspage]

Appreciate the rip!

[@dafreak117]

I backed out of my series 1 pre-order. I think it is going to become a highly discounted series by the time series 2/update hit.

[@westernnycards]

Retail prob will be for sure

[@brandonkief3278]

At 11:42 in the video the Aaron Judge is missing the Yankees on the 70 set. Cool yellow foils too. Can’t wait for the full case.

[@westernnycards]

Yankees is on there it’s just super super hard to see because the writing is white on a white background

[@Br_highlightss]

Great vid

[@westernnycards]

Thanks!!

[@BenHoepner-c8h]

I love the look of this year’s Archives, but stay as far away as possible from the retail side. I bought 8 blasters and not a single numbered card. I bought 8 more and only got two numbered cards. For the price you’re much better off with Stadium Club, A&G, or a Topps flagship release

[@peterbosser2049]

nice vidio . pulled out of a blaster box a 2024 Topps Archives #179 Emmet Sheehan Aqua Sparkle Foilboard #/75 RC

[@georgeharrisonfan789]

Just ordered a few of these! Cant wait to see how it goes.

[@westernnycards]

Good luck brother!!! Hopefully you get an auto

[@VanslykefanCards]

Just got me some too, looking for the Vanslyke or Kendall auto.

[@austinbousquet603]

Tough rip. I got 2 blasters just for the hell of it. Pulled a Ryan Howard "Own the Game" auto. Not a monster, but certainly better than a 35 year old rookie pitcher.

[@westernnycards]

That’s pretty cool!

[@hotjoe817]

Not the grading type either, I like the card in the raw form, I could always mag it up to display it but I just sleeve and top load them only for now

[@westernnycards]

Raw all day for me! I’m nervous for this game Sunday lol

[@hotjoe817]

@@westernnycardsme to, if we lose, all these people will dog buffalo and Allen, hopefully we pull it out

[@bofusnco]

I got 2 Ichiro's one plain print and one had different lettering on Mariners

[@westernnycards]

Sweet! That must be a variation

[@MadTunaCards]

I feel like for 6.99 I’d pick up a few but you probably won’t find any because people probably chasing the yellow Skenes

[@Off2Neverland8]

You keep pulling awesome Giants cards! *Throws money at you*😂😂

[@westernnycards]

😂

[@japanesehercules]

Not a fan of this year's Archives. The centering is bad on a lot of these. Lack of quality control

[@westernnycards]

Def not their best work

[@tylermaxwell5349]

Just a nice little appetizer to hold us over to Series 1 and those Crews and Wood RCs 🤌

[@westernnycards]

I need all the Wood rookies!!!

[@AG-OldmanBrick]

Somehow Fat Packs have the best odds to pull the foilfactor's and printing plates. Which is kinda crazy.

[@westernnycards]

I didn’t know that! That’s really odd

[@AG-OldmanBrick]

@@westernnycards yeah. For the 1961 version the 5924- Hobby Distributor 1:8,599 for the 5990-Fat Pack 1:7,660 and 5991-Fat Pack 1:8,235. I'm not sure what the difference is between the 2 Fat Pack numbers. But yep slightly better odds out of Fat Packs.

[@TheJimmy117]

opened 5 of this format and got nothing as well. did open 1 blaster and got a Nolan Schanuel red foil rookie /50 tho

[@westernnycards]

Not bad at all

[@alvarhanso6310]

Did 10 fat packs just now. No Skenes base, no Elly base. Best rookies were Merrill and Caminero. A Caminero and a Chourio insert each and a Shohei insert, but no numbered cards, no Yammamoto or anything. I'll double check for variations, but, more excited for the 2025 I ordered today, Hobby and Blaster combo and 2 Megas. On the fence about adding a Jumbo to guarantee an auto. Oh, I also did not like the feel of these Archives cards, they feel cheaper than 2024 Heritage, and I really like the feel of 2022 and 23 Heritage, so they can do the old feel better. They seem to choose not to do so. Also, terrible collation again, out of 160 cards, I probably had at least 15 doubles.

[@westernnycards]

I agree with the feel point! I thought I was going crazy thinking that while I was opening

[@alvarhanso6310]

@westernnycards 1994 Topps felt better than that. The others feel like they were on cereal boxes, only thinner.

[@Scottie4twenty]

I saw a video on how much series 1 they are printing, and it's through the roof. It's going to be everywhere, and it's going to be a lot. Plus the pull rates are going to be much more difficult. 2025 is another junk wax era. On a positive note 2026 Topps will have the rights for all 4 major sports. Can't wait for some Topps chrome football

[@westernnycards]

I would disagree on calling anything of this era the junk wax era. The junk wax area was junk because there were no parallels or serial numbered cards, or really anything of substance to pull

[@Scottie4twenty]

@westernnycards Actually, that wasn't my take. The guy whose video I watched referred it to the junk wax era.

[@Scottie4twenty]

@westernnycards I'm guessing it's about the amount that's being printed is why he's calling it junk wax but yes I agree with u

[@westernnycards]

Yeah no doubt, they are printing high

[@jeremytownsend2329]

Seems most of the cards are offset in this set. The same player on 3 different cards are off center the exact same way. Those machines need to be recalibrated. Really only Allen and Ginter did a decent job this year with quality control.

[@MikeDfromCT]

Got 5 on my lunch break from Walmart. Best card was a yellow Rickey. I wont be buying these again. Probably Archives as a whole. Not enough hits.

[@caseyfarrell2504]

Appreciate the content brother. Had a baby girl a few days before you did and was burning through your videos on the tiny husband “bed”. You full time content or is there a day job?

[@westernnycards]

Congrats!!! I have a full time gig but im transitioning to doing this full time hopefully soon! Also I hate the tiny husband bed !

[@ScottParrott-f8l]

You are not kidding about retail. I opened 8 blasters and got one numbered card. No value at all.

[@westernnycards]

Dang!

[@craigtriacca3967]

Somebody dropped the ball big time on quality control how could they have Let all these damaged cards get out the door .

[@hotjoe817]

They don’t care sometimes, they just want your money, it’s getting crazy expensive for hobby and certain blasters and megas are getting pricey

[@craigtriacca3967]

@hotjoe817 ya it's really not even worth it anymore when most of the time your only getting maybe $10 in value back.

[@hotjoe817]

@ that’s why I sell every card I can, even if I make 5-25 cents back

[@scarrmd]

Your best hit was OC, ugh 😢

[@justinistreason4095]

Junk

[@westernnycards]

@@justinistreason4095 not really 🤷🏻‍♂️ but hobby format seems to be better
