I wonder if this means there will by hobby, retail, chinese new year, and tmall revolution this year. Hopefully they remove one for general retail.

Select retail is on presale at Dick's

Ripped eight blasters and didn’t hit a single Wemby, that’s tough to do! But I did hit a Case hit Luka star factor.

How many parallels did you hit per blaster? Any chance at numbered cards?

There is an insert or parallel in every pack, I pulled three reds out of 199 out of the eight blasters

just remember how the die-cut /jersey number nameplate chase is compelling massive Elite movement. and keep the faith. Fans will want the first Wemby with the I-got-paid grimace of elitedom. (And then Panini will ruin it by using the same image for flux, Contenders, and Impeccable).

Revolution blasters are awesome. I bought 6 this morning from my local Walmart and got 5 #'d red lavas #/199. Love the levels parallel too. Hit a nice Wemby Supernova Levels and a whole bunch Ausar Thompson cards (base, red lava, 2 levels inserts).

The hit rate on those red lavas makes me think there won't be a whole bunch of restocks of this stuff.

I have 6 coming in from target myself. Target has 20% today but it just seems like bots are eating it all up

Yep, and it's going like hot cakes.

[ninjabum87]

Anybody pull any of those Neutrons? They look kinda neat to me.

they must be doing a system fix to combat the bots. I've had a bunch of notifications that it's back in stock but were gone immediately (even between F5 spam), now the webpage is blank and says the item is not available at Target but it still shows up on mobile

I really like Revolution

But so far from this release it looks terrible.

Make it stop

[TSonn]

Went back for a couple more blasters. This is the most fun I've had ripping retail since 2020.

How much have you opened?

[maj78]

Big Revolution fan but wasn't sure what to make of this year's product. I opened two hobby cases last night and thought it was a great rip.

One of the new case hits this year is "Revolutionary." I had seen photos and was somewhat interested but kind of thought they might be hideous in-hand. I hit a Tatum in one of my cases and liked it so much I decided I'd like to try and build the set.

They are super-funky but beautiful in-hand. I think people will either love them or hate them - ha! Here's a scan of the Tatum:

I kind of think I like them, but the pics of them make them look like they have the "Mexico Filter" turned on so hard to say.

That's awesome - knew I liked them for a reason! I eat tacos probably 5 days/week. I do think these cards, if they were stickers, look like they'd go great stuck on a hot sauce bottle! "Tatum Fire Salsa in Hot, Medium or Mild."

Ripped 1 Revo hobby today. No autos and the best hit was a Podziemski Neutron /125 and a Miller Fractal insert.

Sharp cards. Can't wait to open mine.

[yoyosh]

It seems the insert levels arent numbered

[oldgoldy97]

Correct.

Levels base are /35.

Red are /199.

[Chris P]

Got my first 3 blasters in from Target today. Fun break and I think I did pretty well. For half the price of a hobby box I think I did better than some hobby boxes out there.

Astro Parallels


Levels Insert Parallels



Notable Base Rookies and Inserts


The best cards of the break


Very surprised to hit an auto and considering the number of guys who didn't sign this year, I'm definitely happy with Pod. Two Wemby inserts and a Jordan Hawkins Red Swirl numbered to 199. I should have 3 more arrive tomorrow. Fun stuff

[anusinha]

Hobby boxes are down to 125ish on b2b networks but the blasters seem to be going for 40ish or more on ebay.

It looks the same as it usually does?
