Every product is a 1+ month free loan. Would be different if they charged at shipping.

Most companies do only charge at shipping. Pure scum that is fanatics

Makes you wonder how many non-EQL case winners there are.

I'm sure they don't think of it as a free loan since they mark most Hobby stuff up $10-30 at release.

Preordering retail is definitely a free loan for them. Can't imagine how much $$ they took in on TC NBA retail presells that will be everywhere for the same price or less on release.

Right. Most respectable, stand-up companies charge at shipping. But.. here we are.

Lots

Did anyone not win? It sounds like a large production run. Although I hope that there's an average of 1 auto per box, it sucks no odds realized yet and we're speculating on them. Low number MCU product cards generally aren't that valuable compared to their Star Wars counterparts, so it's all autos and sketches in this set.

I did not win

anusinha · 11-24-2025, 04:34 PM

Got an L for cases, seems like this is going to be a bust

Just got email, I lost on cases, but I'm sure there will be plenty more MCU releases in future

I'll probably do character breaks off ebay, singles and/or sealed wax if cases/boxes settle down in several months.

Good luck to everyone got boxes.

Bob Ross · 11-24-2025, 04:42 PM

Too bad there's not, you know, a checklist prior to releasing to actually see what's in these. FWIW I entered for case only and predictably lost. 0 for my last 20 or so.

Someone posted the checklist on page one of this thread…https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/06...f?v=1763998602

Wow missed that completely. Thank you

Product may be loaded based on the checlist

Some amazing signers but most boxes will have bit stars from like Agatha, She-Hulk and Ant-Man I think.

Americards · 11-24-2025, 05:22 PM

Denied!!!

Likely mass produced and watered down. If it was loaded they wouldn't have let so many eBay flippers win EQL that it will end up depressing the secondary market price.

Most boxes probably won’t even have autos, and of those that do, most will be of minimally desired actors/actresses.

I think so as well, prbly something along the lines of 4 AU per case so every other box possibly?

Really have no clue until we get more info but i really doubt 1 or more AU per box purely due to the environment

Haha, you're right. Until we get some actual odds, we just don't know.

But knowing the environment AND knowing the manufacturer, safer to assume less than more.

greatgradegrate · 11-24-2025, 08:31 PM

May have missed already on prev page, but was there a release date on the EQL page?

Even though the auto checklist is gigantic it feels like it was printed like a regular UD MCU product. Wouldn't be shocked if it's 1 max 2 autos per case (1 numbered, 1 less desirable base) and 1 sketch per 10 cases.

Could be way off base with this ofc, but just some perspective on ebay listings -- after this year's Galaxy pre-order the max # of hobby boxes I saw was around 80. There are 175 MCU hobby box listings right now. And there was about 20% more 25 Galaxy printed than the previous year.

There is a release date under blasters of Dec 23rd

Was going to enter for my EQL point, and so very happy I didn't. These look bad.

Yeah that is pretty sketch why they didn't list auto odds like UD usually does- maybe if people knew it would be 1 or 2 autos per case they'd not partake in this lotto. 250 is a high price point compared to UD MCU of around 120 a box. However, I think Allure was 200 plus?

However looking at Topps Star Wars Chrome product on Blowout the odds are listed as:

"Box Break:
- 1 Autograph
- 4 Numbered Parallels"

Even the Topps page itself says, "Superfractor Autographs

Star Wars Chrome® contains 1 autograph in every box!"

Hopefully, Topps Marvel Studios will go that path too? It is dubious they wouldn't state that right away though.

peterose4hof · 11-25-2025, 08:35 AM

Dual Auto
Deadpool / Wolverine
Reynolds / Jackman
Amazing!

Brobocop · 11-25-2025, 08:44 AM

If it's one auto per box like Star Wars, I think product takes off or at least holds fairly well. There are A LOT of big names on that checklist. Maybe only a handful of people who didn't sign (RDJ, Scarlet, Hemsworth, Pugh, and Pratt are the biggest missing names). But they got all of the new Fantastic Four members, plus Galactus as well as most of the Thunderbolts to sign. The dual autos have some hits and misses (lot of Charlie Cox in those).

Could be me huffing copium, but in my experience with Topps, when they are launching a new product like this, usually the first year is somewhat decent, it's the years that follow that tend to really suck.

Of course, it's Fanatics, so who knows and it also releasing close to the holidays dampers people's ability to spend, plus, pretty sure we are in a recession in some shape or form so those are all working against the product.

Missed the EQL so I bought five Topps bomber jackets.
