[@willharwell9583]

Nice rip! My wife bought me a blaster of chrome yesterday and I pulled an Elly summertime in the park orange /25!

Just pulled a Elly auto from 24 chrome from a target box for 65$!!!!!!!

[@Ance]

I opened 3 and got 2 X tractor rookies total. Seems like to collation may be tough. But also got an Ohtani blue sonar from the rip to cover the boxes

[@kerouac906]

Unless Ketel takes home MVP.

[@timothyallen4383]

I got a sonar as well and sold it for $195 last night..still didnt pay for all the chrome I ripped lol

[@jasonalloyd]

Guess how much one of these boxes are in Canada. I'll give you a hint, a blaster is $60 at walmart. I have given up on buying cards now. Theres only 28 cards in a blaster and 21 of them are commons.

[@Ha-qw2kc]

Started following Topps over fanatics fest weekend and im so far down the rabbit hole. Started wit the Ohtani 40/40 card which i bought 5 of. Then came to watch your videos and now i just bought two monster boxes from fanatics lol. Wish me luck on my first boxes. I was the comic collector and my brother had binders full of cards from the 90s we lost in a house fire. So hoping the collector gods smile on me.

[@KC_CC]

I’m loving the monsters this year… yes 6 out of the 7 boxes I did had all RC Xfractors. And 2 autos out of those 7 boxes.

[@StrykerBreaks]

@@KC_CC yours were bangers

[@RayRay_Davit]

..."hits the 'Like' button" before Stryker says his obligatory "Hello, my friends!". That's how you do it 'round these parts. Great video. Let's go.

[@StrykerBreaks]

Love that!

[@_trib]

no poop august going strong 💪💪

[@Fabian-ew7ly]

See a doctor 😂

[@SinCityPulls]

Nice hits Stryker. I have literally been kicked in the balls on Topps Chrome this year. I have opened around 20 boxes between retail and hobby and have pulled 0 Judges or Ohtanis. I open3d 3 monster boxes and got 0 rookie xfractors

[@HeisenbergBlueGaming]

In my first monster box I had a Curtis Mead auto, a Shohei card, & Imanaga x-fractor. But 5 out of 10 of the x-fractors had a print line through them.. including the Imanaga.

[@stevepiero5576]

Very lucky with the xfractor rookies...I've opened 3 total and got 3 total rookies ....love this stuff though

[@sampsanity]

So I've never bought Topps chrome ever, but I seen a box in the store today and decided to buy it because I got it for 65. It was a great decision as my first time ever. I pulled an auto rookie. I hope the rest of pulls go well

[@tlyons332000]

great show! i got my boxes from the Topps shop. Got a out of 50 signed Rooke Cardinal Luken. Also got some Judges, Sho, Holliday & Elly.

[@beanpie7191]

BOOM! Trey Cabbage xfractor in box 1? Can't get much better =) lol Thanks for the video!

[@timmccray7507]

I got a hobby box last night. Not one numbered card , no negative no image . 225 bucks and I got a base pitcher auto. Like how can it be that bad ? My LCS owner felt so bad he gave me a Lawlar auto and gave me a box of Stars and Stripes

[@ghostcoasttrading]

Nice rip. I was upset initially with the price increase but having opened 8 already (and 8 more on the way) they are worth it, especially with no Lite products anymore. These are essentially Hobby Lite Lites.

[@jamesweir4493]

Just used the code for my first fanatics purchase. Thank you sir!!

[@BlitzFlre]

Just opened 3. One RC xfractor. It was Holliday though. One Red /5 and Jung Lightboard logo.

[@ericr9956]

Very nice! I only opened 2 monsters so far, but did pull the blue wave Lawlar auto /150

[@darkprince9900]

I bought one from gamestop, I said it was only 20 bucks more than a blaster with 10 guaranteed x fractors. Yeeeah, no rookies. Best was a soto. My blaster had a base ohtani and a pink judge 😂🤟. Might try again, but It was rough. Love the rip as always!

[@abelisatoycar]

Really good variation with the X Fractors, not too many dupe rookies

[@StrykerBreaks]

Yeah I'm glad there weren't a lot of dupes

[@jyang812]

Pulled a green ray wave of Fitzgerald, xfractors of Elly, Merrill, Pereira and an Ohtani base from my one monster. Stopping while I'm ahead. Haha

[@Rip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah]

Nice! I've hit two red /5 (Betts and Greene) out of my rips. I've been loving 2024 Topps Chrome!

[@neilecu85]

Oh I like that blue raywave Gavin Williams!

[@pamn1220]

I pulled the ohtani wave last night too seen one sold on eBay for 100+ raw but most listed in 40/50 range

[@baggedwine1980]

Thanks, I just grabbed four boxes off Fanatics

[@Gr8Danbino81]

That expose is a BANGER

[@EEZYEEEE]

Which do you suggest for bigger hits? 2024 topps chrome or bowman chrome?

[@NicklausTorbick]

So ? What point penny sleeve and top loaders should I put relic cards in??

[@anthonyashley26]

Great rip

[@cameronpack854]

Pulled a aqua Junior Caminero auto out of a blaster box this year ...

[@orlandomayorga6454]

Great rips

[@StrykerBreaks]

Thanks!

[@JZF629]

Love the spreadsheet, but wish you had added ultra violet on there as well

[@StrykerBreaks]

Good idea. I'll try to add that in when I get a a chance.

[@Rawdeals]

I ordered my monsters from Fanatics 2 wks ago and they still arnt gonna be here till Aug 12th

[@StrykerBreaks]

@@Rawdeals couple more days. Good luck 🍀🍀🍀

[@Noah-hd1lu]

Stryker, you done knocked it out of the park bro!! Amazing rip!!!

[@rickhenderson399]

its all about getting the right box . Gotta go get a few and see if i can get lucky too .

[@robertfrank1472]

This sold me, I bought 2 the other day still waiting for them and bought 2 more just now with your link

[@JonGeandreau-kg1kj]

I like blaster boxes because you get 2 pink 2 sepia 2 refractors 1 prism and 1 ray wave. That's 8 chances to get a 40 dollar buy back to pay for the entire box.

[@JustinBeau]

I pulled a KEN GRIFFEY JR. ultraviolet from a retail.

[@robhanson2653]

2023 monsters would net 3 hits per box on top of xfractors. Typically 1 insert and 2 refractors or 2 inserts and 1 refractors and the like. But the numbered hits seemed to be a higher tier. I expect the same this year.

[@J-Q-lantern]

Great video, always love the box breakdowns and odds!

[@StepHenSportsCards]

I got two numbered RCs in the one blaster I found in the wild.

[@Bwianman85]

I opened 10 of these and mine were fairly rough. Best card was a Jackson Holliday /275. Only 1 Judge, no Ohtani's and 3 no name autos.

[@patrinoc9683]

Just bought my first four blasters and pulled a base elley auto and a jasson dominguez /350. Really think blasters are worth it

[@StrykerBreaks]

Blasters aren't bad.

[@evanarey8374]

@@StrykerBreakscould you tell me what is the best format with abt a $100 budget for series 1 & 2 & Chrome

[@orlandomayorga6454]

Hey Stryker, don't remember you mentioning it, but do you have a code for fanatics. Great video

[@StrykerBreaks]

fanatics.93n6tx.net/q4b5aN

[@coreyd7060]

Thank you for the rip Stryker always a great watch. I really like thecray waves a lot, probably my favorite parallel of the set. The negative ray waves hit the hardest in my opinion.

[@paulmarzioli1543]

I don’t sold out on tops website. They have a case of 20 monster boxes for like 1299.. so I think I might just bust a case of that open and just be done with it but striker. I’ll look into that that’s fairly cheap from what I’ve seen but that’s it. It’s a great deal. Maybe I’m wrong.

[@DanielWomack-i6d]

What do you do with all the base rookies and vet base cards that are not stand worthy or collectible?

[@brentedwards2606]

23:39 Word! Why can't everyone do what you just did? My affiliate code, why not! Thanks for keeping it real

[@bennyortiz3110]

I am new to this just started collecting 1 week ago bough me a $40 from game stop and landed a everson pereira Auto rookie card so my question is why buy back or redemption exactly do you mean

[@jamesweir4493]

These boxes look nice!! Excited to go hunting for them! In the meantime I’m enjoying watching your rips! Thank you sir! Have a great weekend brother!!

[@everettchurchill08]

That was fun to watch. Thanks 😊

[@D_P33]

Are the negatives part of the buyback program? I don’t see them listed. Thanks!

[@StrykerBreaks]

@@D_P33 I don’t see them on the list this year

[@bradleymacdonald6036]

They gotta be .. probably be worth just keeping of they wanna consider it a regular refractor

[@crisskreitzmann8417]

Nice rip Quality thumbs up compared to past years

[@dudesoncards]

We’ve ripped a ton of chrome since it came out but unfortunately it’s all been pretty lackluster.

[@michaelboling7159]

Bobby Witt, Jr. for AL MVP

[@rogyuen]

Do you also use shellz for top loaders?

[@mnplumberman]

Was waiting to see a bigger opening of these. 100% take these over blasters, if you can get them for retail prices. I opened 2 and got 1 auto and 2 #'d cards and $60 in Judges. My only concern is that these will be $120 a box soon, but since they are still available on Topps, there must be plenty of supply. Still overpriced IMO, and I think we both heavily beat the odds in our boxes.

[@StrykerBreaks]

@@mnplumberman yeah I’m getting more of these. They crush

[@germantorres8162]

Just pulled a ohtani gold ray wave 10/50 on my very first ever monster box

[@HauserBrosCardCollection]

Congrats on the nice rookie spread.

[@StevenCasper-o4n]

What a great rip

[@mercedesgill4027]

Nice rippin! Wish I could rip as much as you!! Lol! Dream job brother! One day maybe I will ? But I love watching your videos ! Let's go 1981 baby! March 18 1981 for me! Heard you say that in one of your videos! Lol. Keep rippin!!!!

[@KarlEmmons]

Love the Lou Bob..I thought monster boxes were going to be worth the wait...is it true the show times are going to be double redemption because of the back to back ..mvp..just checking to see what you have heard keep on cracking brother

[@StrykerBreaks]

@@KarlEmmons it’s a little different than that. It’s the actual stamped buybacks from last year that you can turn in for double

[@Deadloxrussell]

Im watching to see what I could get but as a padres fan I want a Jackson Merrill x fractor, I just bought mine

[@WeatherSportsAndMore]

Wowwww 🤯 that was a crazy rip I’m getting some now

Use my link in the description if you buy some

Who are your top 3 rookies to chase? Mine are Elly Merrill and Holliday.

Jared Jones, Yamamoto

[@shawnmyellenic]

Any chance you would be willing to share that Format Excel Spreadshhet?

[@ChristopherMcVay]

Can someone explain the whole xfactor and refractor cards? I just started collecting these cards, trying to learn

[@evanarey8374]

Could you tell me what is the best format for series 1 and 2 with a 100 ish dollar budget. So no crazy jumbo boxes

[@mattmoret2069]

Buy single cards. Save it for another product drop.

[@jackteppo9633]

My 1st blaster I pulled an Elly pink refractor

[@brandonwelshsr.8696]

I opened 2 blasters and no numbered cards, only decent cards were gunner pink and Yamamoto Sepia and base lawyer all rookie rush card

[@HesRoundingThird]

I also pulled a x-fractor churio

[@ericedwards3708]

I have my childhood collection, which I funded by mowing yards, washing cars, and raking leaves. The average kid today can’t afford to buy cards because breakers on Whatnot are driving up demand such that Topps 2024 or 2023 Optics football. Hobby box Topps 2024 is $242 from Fanatics and 2023 Optics football $800-$1200. Pretty sad state. My favorite cards in 2024 Topps are the 35th edition cards.

[@Rawdeals]

Great rip!

[@StrykerBreaks]

@@Rawdeals thanks!

[@ScottM-lz9wv]

Great rip these take top spot for value rip right now in my opinion

[@StrykerBreaks]

I think you're right

[@philipbates9648]

What is the upgrade shop? Assuming they prepare cards for grading? I bought 6 blasters and pulled rookie refractors Chourio, Dominguez, Holiday, Langford, Kjerstad, Yamamoto, Merrill wave refractor, 2 Jackson Holiday pink parallel and Summertime, Kjerstad pink, 3 Ohtani's, 4 Judge, 2 Elly, John Mcmillon rc auto, Alika Williams purple /275. Julien blue /150, McMahon purple /275.

[@joesmith-es1zy]

It's the term he uses for sending the cards to PSA to get graded.

[@ronriggs9954]

Stryker... Stryker.... STRYKER... Hey man, when i go to Fanatics, it says Monsters won't ship out until August 19th...did you get yours early because you bought a box? Or are they saying it'll ship out the 19th at the latest?

[@gojurathedynamo3]

Just figured it out. You got a Mike Rowe delivery. Digging on the vids brother!

[@dennisthespeedmenace7530]

Just pulled a 24 chrome Elly auto from target for 65$

[@bennybreaks702]

My 3 were garbage. Best card was a Masyn Winn raywave. Hoping my next set of 3 is better. I've seen hits from everyone else it seems.

[@RetailRipper]

another video with these being juicy

[@johnthompson1978]

You're missing Lawrence Butler IMO.

[@AnthonyDorney]

Ive ripped 2 of these and I was disappointed cuz a few of my xfractors had nasty print lines on them. I did get a purple speckle rookie auto and a purple sonar out of the 2 boxes. The bad qc sorta left a bad taste since I ripped a bunch of monsters in 2023 and didn't have any of those qc issues.

[@xKalamity]

are these non numbered parallels really worth getting graded? How much do they go for in a high grade

[@StrykerBreaks]

Depends on who it is but for top rookies yes. X-fractors are high demand unnumbered parallels.

[@teddo997]

no

[@bobgriffin8472]

Great video. Endless parallels and man. Another Sox hit, not Eloy this time, better. Lubob. Thanks for the video !!

[@billweitzel1750]

You convinced me to start buying monster boxes after the 1st one... sheesh

[@TinyMeatFleet]

Getting into collecting. Grabbed a few blasters a few days ago. Any recommendations on what to buy as a new collector? The box goes around $330 CAD vs $60 for a blaster. Any input on how to make that decision would be appreciated!

[@cbwitdaglizzyyy517]

Blaster rip count is up to 10 still no autos.. no elly, Jackson Holliday, junior or jasson base cards I somehow keep grabbing the trash collations makes no sense seems statistically impossible

[@asambi69]

They probably released these later, so they don't tank refractor prices from the Hobby/Jumbos. Atleast for a little bit.

[@AFireInside91]

This is ridiculous. I’ve ripped 2 jumbos, 2 hobbies, and 17 blasters. My best auto was a base shanuel. My biggest hit period was a caminero variation /99 and I didnt pull ONE NUMBERED OR AUTO FROM 17 BLASTERS!! To hell with you topps

[@asphaltentertainmentheadch5742]

Bro, I spent $315 almost just for four boxes at Walmart today. What’s today, August 30th

[@rlzm_]

How do we redeem the redemption credits

[@Gkc1231]

Opened 6 today 3 of 3 had vet xfractors It’s either all rc or all vets unfortunately no ohtani no judge

[@paulmarzioli1543]

Striker only you pull first pack fire autograph that is crazy nice hit. Lol I think I’ve given up on 2024 chrome I can’t hit water if I fell in it.

[@HesRoundingThird]

Talking to a guy at my LCS. Print run all rookie teals. In all the packs.

[@MbgFire2067]

Got my two boxes today and nothing really to speak of with no notable rookies and just 1 numbered card of PCA. I have yet to get a Judge or Ohtani after having opened a jumbo, a hobby, a blaster and these two Monster boxes. I wish everyone else luck!

[@bradleymacdonald6036]

I've opened 2 hobby asks like 6 blasters and 6 hobby packs from an open box.. NOT ONE ELLY

[@bradleymacdonald6036]
