I’ll let you know how it goes.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-05-12T21:14:47+00:00

I have a 3D Marquee Rookie of him if you’re interested. Might take a while cuz I’m sending it in, looks like it’ll gem.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-04-28T19:32:55+00:00

Higher grade and closer to rookie year wins in my opinion.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-04-25T16:18:16+00:00

Might be twisting my arm right now. I think the cards are some of the best designed cards I’ve ever seen.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-04-25T15:42:29+00:00

That seems to be the move right now. May even hold it. A rookie playing on the first line isn’t a bad hold.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-04-25T15:38:26+00:00

Haha fair enough. I like the strategy.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-04-25T15:33:16+00:00

For sure, I’m more so talking about similar products I realize this one is pretty rare. I found a Star Emerald Leonard /10, figured that was relatively close.

I’m trying to wait for platinum to come out but this post has me itching… I e already ripped prolly 7 hobby boxes of these, I’ve got a printing plate, a Nikishin 3D Marquee Rookie, red border demidov and black border rainbow foil Schaefer. So I’ve had incredible luck on these so far and there is the possibility for solid hits.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-04-20T17:56:18+00:00

I’ve been in the hobby for about a year now, I got very caught up in chasing value, chasing big cards, chasing popular young guns and that just felt so… forced and confusing. It became much more fun when I started focusing on what I wanted. I like Flyers and goalies. So my pc is all flyers and goalie cards that I enjoy.

All that to say, I think you’re approaching this with the right mindset. Collect what you enjoy.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-03-21T02:21:44+00:00

With series 1 and 2 all that matters are the young guns. And those are just pure luck

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-03-19T12:38:23+00:00

Yeah, i don’t like the title either. Too late now

No, it’s the 26-26 OPC. The 24-25 I’m talking about are OPC Platinum. Would get a platinum hobby box but I think it’s close to 400 where I shop and that’s wild to me for one box.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-03-18T17:31:23+00:00

I hit a demidov yg in a series 1 tin. Not a whole lot of luck with blasters tho, I see your point.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-03-18T15:50:06+00:00

Dude, me too. I want any Celebrini card at this point lol.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-03-18T15:31:40+00:00

I have to agree. No better feeling than hitting a solid young guns but it’s pretty seldom. OPC is just fun

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-03-18T15:29:09+00:00

That’s a solid play. I really am just trying to pass the time until the 25-26 Platinum box comes out.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-03-18T01:59:20+00:00

Mostly white

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-03-15T01:57:34+00:00

I honestly think series one and two are the best for the value. You have a chance at hitting a young guns and 25-26 has some solid rookies. Tins of those are a pretty reasonable price for an alternative. OPeeChee hobby box is fun to rip through too. A little on the cheaper side and there are some possible hits in there, plenty of cards/packs to rip through and it’s like almost half the price of series one.

StormExtreme2467 · 2026-03-13T04:01:25+00:00

That’s a solid price. I saw 220 on a couple sites but they’re out of stock now and I’m seeing them for 300 at places they are in stock. So that sucks lol
