Those looks pretty cool but need to mention the obligatory...

"Boxes once again carry a suggested retail price of $120."

thats the over under on 400 resell? I say over at minimum 6-700 in my opinion

RustyDawg37 · 03-08-2021, 12:08 PM

LOL they arent really worth $150 most of the time. Good thing breaking will be spiking here in the next couple weeks again.

IlliniBear · 03-23-2021, 07:51 PM

These are at $550 a lot of places. Saw them at $489 on EBay. I’d say that’s too much but if never is these days.

imbluestreak23 · 03-23-2021, 11:48 PM

Awesome, can't wait to buy for $120

FOTL goes live on Dutch in just over 20 minutes. Anyone in? If so, at what price?

If print run was larger yes but it's relatively limited, so can't count on that.

levels around Blowout $550 Hobby price:

$591.67
$562.50
$533.33
$504.17

2100 boxes

keysersoze3421 · 04-06-2021, 10:00 AM

I'm probably in at 533. Maybe 562.

Pathora · 04-06-2021, 10:06 AM

I only thought this might go cheaper if people are waiting on FOTL NT and normal Select going for sale as well. Sure it won't though.

ld8759 · 04-06-2021, 10:18 AM

So...people who don't make a boatload of money have been priced out of the "hobby". That's just great.

For higher end products Panini typically limits the rc/auto checklist to 40-50 ish players. With 100 players on the auto checklist, hitting a good name is going to be pretty rare

IlliniBear · 04-06-2021, 10:41 AM

My guess is $533. I’m not sure if I want to buy a box or two. 100 card rookie auto checklist may be too much.

2 autos - I think one will be on-card of the 40 or so "top" guys and the other is a sticker of the lower tier dudes.

The one guaranteed purple auto #/21 is not guaranteed to be from the top 40 guys. It will be from the 100 card checklist I mentioned. The other auto (random numbering) will then be from any of the other sets offered on the entire Optic Contenders checklist which includes veterans, rookies, etc...

From the Panini website/description: "Look for 1 Purple Pulsar Autograph #'d /21 and 1 Purple Pulsar Parallel #'d /21 in every FOTL box!"

The way I read it, you aren't even guaranteed for the FOTL auto /21 to be a rookie.

JVO · 04-06-2021, 11:00 AM

Fotl at 650

$500 a good buy?

There are no vet autos /21.

The /21 auto is a Rookie Ticket, total checklist is 102 it looks like.
