I used to not like pack wars much either but I will say I actually enjoyed the last marvel annual pack wars.. I thought being able to foil a serial numbered parallel was a nice added exclusive...

I hope they bring that back for the DC annual pack wars because I liked it over the victor cards you used to have to combine.

I pulled this from a hobby box a few weeks ago. Perhaps there was an e-pack/hobby split?

Isn’t that a Marvel one… not part of this DC set? It’s possible the final Marvel Annual set inserted the Premieres because they ran out of time to do a Pack Wars for that set.

Has anyone pulled a DC Premieres card? If not, I’m guessing it will be a Pack Wars prize like the earlier Marvel ones. I think the first version was the nicest template…

Looks like these blasters are up on the UD store… limit 3. I won’t order online but will probably pick up a couple if they hit my Walmart. The blaster exclusive is the blue parallel which I believe is shown below…

Watched a case of the blasters being opened on what not. The case didn’t get one night terrors. Didn’t even get one numbered card. It did produce 1 blue per pack. Feels like the blues will be easy to pull for set building.

Yeah blasters are pretty much always a dud deal. The only recent exception (and it was a great one) was last Easter’s Marvel Platinun blasters for $20. Those were fun!

[finfangfan]

Went to Walmart today and these blaster weren’t there. Marvel Metal Avengers, MA, and the 2 Dis+ MCU sets UD put out at the end of their Marvel license were there. What’s weird is none of these have been there since 2024 so maybe the distributor has dumped a last hurrah final batch into stores or something. Sadly, no Marvel Platinum there!

EDIT: just looked at the pic I took and Marvel Beginnings vol. 2 series 1 was also there and was the cheapest… $19.98. The others were $25 and Avengers was $30.
