Yes, 20. I didn’t realize there was another blaster underneath when I took the photo.

Yeah, you get a lot of stuff, but its 90% junk that you dont really want to even bother breaking.

Well I just received my 7.6 pound box and it looks like there is some kind of bonus in it. Can’t open until later but wanted to share for all those worrying that the weight meant they had a “bad” box.

I love the format for a break. You can trade for the stuff you collect at a reasonable price and get a good chance of hitting big (20% of boxes in Houdini's break are over the buying price).

I can't imagine getting one for myself, too much stuff I don't collect/like.

I wanted to chime in with more box weight data, ordered 3 orders of 2 boxes, each of the 3 boxes all say they weigh exactly 15.0 pounds.

I pulled a Christian Yelich Gold Super Refractor 1/1 out of the Donruss Optic Baseball blaster in my Mega! and also an Anthony Edwards Pink Chronicles XR Rookie as well as a Julio Rodriguez 2024 Hometown heroes topps insert!!! I'd say it was 199 bucks well spent.

Good luck to those opening, hope you get monsters!



edit: after watching the Houdini break: Maybe not so bad?

My three boxer weighted 19.9 pounds. Which is a deviation from the 7.6 standard

All in all, I have to say I am pleased with this promotion. BO listened to its customers.

Peeked into my box, 20 blasters, no bonuses. Best blaster looked to be a 2023 Bowman, overall pretty bare bones. Lots of panini baseball, 8 of the 20.

I can confirm they sold out at the show today within the first 90 minutes. They are hoping to have more tomorrow

They sold out of all the stock at Nats on this earlier today. They have more coming tomorrow but will be gone fast ... has been a huge hit. I pulled a 1/1 super refractor out of mine ... so was worth it. Will buy another if get the chance.

For those of you who purchased during the presale with the option of picking it up in person, did you have any trouble getting what you ordered even though they sold out today?

They must have moved thousand+ of these things. If you figure each one is basically one blaster case full of mostly junk, it was a good way to clear out inventory space.
