The surprise in getting the Mike Schmidt auto was the best!!

Since rejoining the hobby, like so many a few years ago, I've been counting down until the '75 design it Heritage. Heritage is my favorite set for all of its variations and ROAs. There is something so retro about these 70s color combos...man do they look sharp in chrome!

2019 archives had some 75 design as well.

It’s amazing to think that you, RGL, and Hitman Rips all hit 40,000 subscribers right around the same time, and now you are almost to 100,000!! Very impressive, you are a perfect example of hard work produces results, keep up the great work:)

that was a misty eyed tear gerker at Fenway Park to today . . . honoring the Wakefields and Larry Lucchino!!

First time seeing someone get a box topper auto, nice. Set looks nice this year and the Chromes are much better.

Usually don’t rip Heritage but 75 Topps is one of my all time favorite sets. Amazing Schmidt box topper auto! You Rock Stryker! So close to 100k!

What an epic card journey! Vintage vibes, modern hits!

1975 was the first set I ever put together by packs as a kid. I still have them today and all the doubles. Have 4 Brett rookie doubles and 3 Yount rookie doubles and they are in both great shape. One of my favorite sets of all time.

I'm going to start collecting Baseball cards (from the UK) and the heritage set is going to be my thing. I love the idea of it and how it's made for set collectors, which as someone who remembers putting sets together (for soccer and gpk) as a kid well before things like ebay or even the internet existed, I can appreciate. Thank you for showing it.

I've always loved Heritage as a 37 yr old Vintage collector. I also love how they have a Soto Auto in his Yankee uniform! Short prints will be 1-99 from what I heard too instead of having High Numbers.. guna be crazy to try and complete this set 💯🔥

I’ve never really opened any Heritage before but since I’ve shifted my collecting to more set building and base rookies, this set looks right up my alley. Might have to buy a few boxes

They should have put minis in there as a parallel. It would be a nice homage to the original 75 minis.

Heritage is always my favorite set each year. My other favorites I can’t afford so this is definitely some I can actually buy.

Standing in line at Meijer. Can’t wait to get home and finish this video. And rip some wax myself. Good luck.

2024 Topps Heritage is like the ultimate time machine for card collectors! But let's be honest, we all know what would really take it to the next level, more elusive Rollie Fingers cards popping up like a surprise party in every pack! Great top loader! Thanks for always making this hobby so fun Stryker!

Like 548 to you at 4:17pm est Love Heritage. Classsssic, I wish they did a heritage chrome box

i opened many 1975 Topps. still my favorite design

Love this years (and 1975s) design!! As a Sox fan I love the white border Grissom. Can’t wait until he’s healthy especially with story gone

75 is my favorite Topps design. I will be buying many boxes of this

Love that the chrome is smoother. Looks really nice. Nice Acuna variation.

Nice Schmidt auto !

I started collecting with the original 75 set. So yes, I will be working on this set.

I personally love the throwback design this year. I was floored as soon as you opened the box and staring right at you was that Mike Schmidt autograph. How awesome was that?!?! Love your content bro! Keep giving us more. 👍👍💪🏻💪🏻“GO CUBS!!”😉

That Schmidt auto is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Schmidt off the top is crazy!!!🗣️

Great rip. That Box loader was fire! I don't know if it matters or not but the Red Schoendienst manager card was actually Whitey Herzog in the photo. At 9:58

@@in2rock275 Very doubtful. Topps doesn't usually correct errors unless they are caught before the product comes out. If it were something in the picture that was taboo, then they would change it (tobacco, Alcohol advert. ect.) This is just what I've come to observe but nothing is written in stone.

Nice Schmidt autograph. My favorite player growing up.

I'll be building the set. I took 25 years off from collecting cards. I started up last year. I got some heritage to get a taste and got hooked. so now I collect Topps standard, Heritage and archives. I have standard topps complete complete sets from 1987 to 2023. Collecting cards again brings me back to my teen years. my all-star picks are all Dodgers, Mookie, freddie, Shohei, Will Smith and Bobby Miller. I like your videos dude. Nice pull on Schmidt is a huge pull

Wow, crazy start with the Schmidt auto! Topps 1975 was the first year I bought cards, when I rode my bike to the 7-11 all summer, using most of my allowance on baseball cards and Wacky Packs. 😅 It's a great colorful design with some interesting inserts. I got two hobby boxes, and on the way are Target megaboxes, whish have exclusive red-bordered cards. Great video, StrykerMan, thanks!!🫡👍⚾️

Always loved those the 75s

Fantastic opening and great hit! Can’t wait to receive mine tomorrow!

I've never pulled a hand numbered card, that's so sweet!

Only thing I see different in the acuna variation was bottom right. Acuna was a star and harper was a baseball. But that's probably not it

$100 a box and it will be worth half that 6 months from now. I’ll wait

If 2024 is like 2023, you shouldn’t have to inspect the backs to find a flip stock. I pulled a Joey Ortiz flip stock from 2023 high number and it was upside down. 2022, on the other hand, they weren’t turned around and I almost missed a flip stock. Was organizing a complete set of high number from a box and discovered two CJ Abrams rookies. Discovered that one had a glossy back.

Congratulations on the Schmidt auto 🎉

Super sweet rip! Sweet boxloader hit!

Born in 1975, so I think this is a product I'm going to get into!

I love the design of this set. I might try to collect this one.

Thanks for the preview Stryker. I'll buy a mega box or a couple blasters just to get some of the big rookie base cards. Never really had much luck with heritage, thanks for sharing 👍

Great box will buy for sure. Thanks for video

Best 3B ever. No doubt.

Great rip and video stryker!........Schmidt rulzzzz 🔥

the photo of alonso is so cool

Honestly, after watching your video, you clearly motivated me to buy a box. Good job! Thanks for the discovery. God bless you. greetings from south of France homie ! mortel the big card with signature of mike shmidt that rocks !!! first card Elly de la Cruz !unbelievable

George Brett and Robin Yount auto's from this set would be nice to have.

I like the design this year. definitely going to buy some but not enough to get close to the set. too large anyway for me.

I’m on the edge of my seat here. Nice work.

absolute fire!!!!!!!

Somebody on the baseball card subreddit pulled one of your variation cards, if you want it, you could probably contact him on there to see about making a deal with him

Way to start off with a bang! Awesome!

Someone else also caught it but the Harper was a no sig SP. Came up right after Acuna

Congrats on the Mike Schmitt Auto

My flip stock was backwards in 2023 high numbered hobby its brandon marsh not bad considering

Love Heritage. Doesn't work for the guys who love the glittery stuff and it makes you go through the cards 3 or 4 times. Enjoy opening them. When you get a hit, It's usually a big one.

Other than the number, are there any distinguishable features that makes the short print different than the base in this product??

My twin girls cant wait for this. Good stuff mortal Kombat guy 😂😂😂😂 and as always good luck rippin 🍀🍀 Stryker was introduced to mortal Kombat in #3, you should say Stryker wins when you get a hit 😂😂😂

That was a good box. Every heritage box I've purchased wasn't anything like that one u just opened. I usually get a crappy relic and a bunch of base cards.

Awesome box! Love it

O ya... Very Nice BANGER 🔥🔥💯 at the beginning 😮😮😮 of the video. Congratulations 🥳🎉 I personally think this would be a great set too collect and invest in. I got a 20 card pack earlier. It paid for it's self and then some. Very excited too see what the boxes bring. And I was really not a heritage person. But, this year. I'm in it too win it.

Nice rip, nice cards. Thanks for sharing.

Not liking that they switched the SPs to the beginning of the checklist. At the end I felt like I could ignore them-like the appendix at the back of a book-but at the front it's harder to pretend that a complete non-SP run is actually complete. Last year I just bought a complete set (minus SPs, obs) on ebay and called it a day. I figured I'd do the same this year, but maybe instead I should abandon the idea of a complete set and just open a box or two to try and grab some key rookies and a banger chrome or two. I dunno, the SPs in Heritage are so blah. The only people who want a Brandon Drury SP are set builders. The SPs, then, just feel like Topps artificially making it harder to get the job done.

callling a base elly the "first good card" after pulling a mike schmitt auto is funny

Not a fan of the Fascimile autos but every else is dope!

Great stuff! Can’t wait to get my boxes today or tomorrow

lynn won the mvp in '75 but was also a rookie. his original '75 topps card is on a 4 player card. his 1/4 of that card is represented here.

Birth year set for me.

OMG ! I was thinking about Mike Schmidt before you opened this box ! I swear to god ! I have no idea why. ❤

Fun box 🍀🎰🍺

is it just me or do color swap cards have "white border" as the variation label?

No way 😮

The red ink real ones are VERY hard to come buy. Bought 2 boxes and was lucky enough to get an Evan Carter /75. The variations are hard to spot. The text is very small

is basabe on the blue jays an error card?

Someone should tell fanatics it's 2024 and autographs are the only guaranteed hit we want in products at these prices leave the relic cards to guaranteed blaster boxes hits. Anything above blaster box prices should automatically come with two relics (one common and one numbered).

Bang! 🔥 ⚾️ 👏🏽

You thought I was crazy a few months ago when I said that Anthony Volpe was gonna be an all star this year. You said it was impossible because of how far down in the lineup he was hitting. What are your thoughts now that he's leading off? And I love heritage this year. 1975 is one of my favorite designs.

Suckered by the thumbnail 😅 The bt auto is SICK🔥

Figured this is a big enough card to get ur attention but I actually have it…I have a COLLX account and it’s in my collection but. Ik it has to be graded but it’s probs an8-9

New age performers look like 2001 ud decades of the 70s

Cool to see Yogi Berra

Love this set. Cant stand blank printer ink fake autos across the photos tho
