TEN TOPPS CHROME RETAIL BLASTER BOXES 2024 BASEBALL CARDS

[@sonnikdoh2510]

wow, great luck with the Blasters, I've seen a lot of dust being pulled from Blasters.

[@nunzi83]

I love 24 chrome. They did a great job all around. Price is too high. There’s only one base auto that you can sell to get your money back on a hobby box. That’s a huge sign on how expensive the boxes are.

[@AnthonyDorney]

Your blasters were definitely the best ive seen opened on KZbin so far!

[@That_TSLA_Dude]

💯 agree. This was a great rip!

[@RetailRipper]

glad ray waves are in these. i really like that parallel.

[@mattsjewell]

New to the hobby and enjoying watching you videos man! Opened my first 2024 topps chrome hobby box this morning. You already had better pulls than mine after just 2 blasters.

[@FSLong1]

I ripped eight blaster boxes and ended up with five numbered cards, two autos, an Elly prism refractor, and both a Judge and an Ohtani pink.

[@di_aqua]

got my first ever blaster box yesterday, opened my first pack and got a numbered card. im assuming it's beginner's luck lol

Awesome hits. i don't think these boxes are in the same galaxy as the norm. I hope it is though, because then I will start buying Blasters.

[@PullinRips]

I’ve watched a ton of videos on these blasters and mostly all of them have been trash. Your first box was the best blaster I’ve ever seen out of these

[@briansimmons9591]

It's all or nothing with these. Western NY Cards did retail vs hobby and the blaster destroyed the hobby. There was a Buxton die-cut auto /25 in a blaster.

[@kimpettter8462]

It’s embarrassing the “quality” of his product vs so many of the leaser known breakers. Even his refractors are known quantities and not some B tier reliever. Sorry, that just isn’t the norm on this product.

I pulled a Aqua Junior Caminero Auto from a blaster this year. Bought one box for fun, and it was there.

[@jamessekulich2344]

Love that you are wearing a Tigers hat, you have gotten a very lucky group of blasters. I've watched quite a few people open these, then went out and bought a hobby (didn't get either of the buy backs) then a jumbo, before the prices go up. Your video has changed my mind and I probably will be picking up some of this.

Excellent informative video from Stryker once again. Of all the 2024 Chrome blaster boxes I've seen opened you're the only one I've seen that got GREAT pulls all the others compared to your 10-box opening were deserts very dry with nothing to show for the price that was/is being paid. Keep up the great work and you and your family have a good, safe and blessed rest of yer day and week.

I opened 5 blasters yesterday with mixed results.. no autos.. Jackson Merrill sepia and a Candalario /250 were probably my best pulls. Also i didnt pull any Judges or Ohtanis. Im guessing Topps will limit the MVP candidate carda so they font have to buy back as much.

Got 2 blasters before release at my LCS.....I've gotten $70 back from 2 within the first week. Not a bad buy at all, with the retail exclusives! Edit: Got 2 raywave, 1 color, 1 auto, 1 negative and good players amongst them. Auto was Andre Lipicus base......prism refractors of acuna, wilyer abreu, sepia of Juan Soto, negative of MJ Melendez.....2 raywaves were Nola & Justin Turner. True blue /150 of Castellanos. The same retail case had an Elly /25......these are hit and miss, but the hits HIT

Do inserts of judge and Ohtani count for the buyback? I am wandering because you pulled a judge strokes insert 22:45

Firmly on the train that I won't buy one of these unless they get discounted to $30 or less. Jabs 10 blasters were much more typical it felt with only 2 hits out of 10 blasters, which included a negative. Singles of who I want are cheapest already too so I'm still holding firm.

[@jeffreywarrick75]

Mr Stryker, in your chart with the different formats, do you take into account that these blasters have 32 cards, not 28, for the pricing per card? I know it's a minor point, but the 2 sepias and 2 pinks are in addition to the other cards. So, 7 packs of 4 cards each, but 4 of the packs will actually have 5 cards. It was the same last year. It's also that way with flagship blasters and holiday cards. Those are extras. I always open packs one at a time, to stretch out my pack-opening enjoyment. 😂 Great video. I opened 2 so far, one had a rookie auto, Randy Wynne. 😃

[@StrykerBreaks]

The boxes say 28 total cards but if there are extras then...bonus! It's already the best dollar per card, so if there are extras then it makes it a bit better.

[@MattD-d4r]

Damn. I bought 4 blasters from Walmart… and got one base rookie auto, and everything else was horrible. Felt like all of the boxes were almost the same players… was very disappointing. These boxes were wayyy better and it didn’t feel like you got a bunch of the same players from different boxes.

[@BobbyHo2022]

Opened 1 blaster. Got 1 numbered auto Steve Cruz rc /299 and 1 Aaron Judge base card. Watching this makes me think there is an auto in half the boxes. ( I know that isnt true.)

[@acatal008]

Here my take on this and Topps Chrome in general. It’s trash. Sure you can get that one big hit but your chances are very low. Unless you are a major breaker spending thousands, ordering by the case, you aren’t hitting anything. I ripped 4 blasters last night and got ONE good card pink Colton Cowser. I ripped 2 Jumbo Hobby and 1 Hobby and all 7 autos were garbage. The best card I’ve got out of all of these packs is a Judge Prizm and a Pink Elly from a sport memorabilia store local (random pack). I have nothing against Stryker or any other breaker they are amazing people and love baseball. It’s just frustrating man!!

[@MiloRipsOne]

Tell you what, the expanded check list as made collecting 2024 Chrome really difficult and super expensive, especially when a hobby box is $200+ and jumbos are at $500. Those are stupid prices. One of three jumbos I've ripped was awesome. The other two were.....OK. The two hobby boxes I've ripped were bad. Haven't had any luck with blasters either. Maybe the trick is buying a case of blasters? Buying one or two off the shelf just doesn't make sense financially.
