THE INSERTS ARE SOOOO BAD!! | 2023-24 Optic NBA Retail Blaster Review

Спорт

A few years ago Optic NBA retail slapped with a ton of great looking inserts. So what happened? Why did these great and highly collectible insert designs get reduced to highly forgettable throwaway inserts? Let's talk about the downfall of Panini's graphic design team and why Optic NBA retail blasters and megas are simply not as fun as Select NBA.

    My ass hurt after 20 blasters, 2 sparkle scrubs, 2 base wembys, 1 checkerboard rc scrub and a no namer autographed card

    Maybe it’s cuz I grew up in the 90’s where multiple companies were competing to put out the best product, but I miss the Metals, Flairs, SkyBox, Finest & Upper Deck. Inserts & subsets were incredible then.

    Honestly, it's more worth collecting 90s/pre 2010 basketball cards over the modern day crap. More value in the longterm over the new stuff.

    Definitely an accurate representation of a typical experience with optic. I've opened probably 15 blasters and 10 megas. I've got two base wemby, all the wemby Inserts in purple or silver (except the phazes SSP obviously), gafford checkerboard and two glitters...Lonnie Walker and Sasha Vezenkov rc. Top rookies are tough to hit in base parallel fo sho! Select was real good to me but I bought a shit ton of it.

    Select has crazy odds for numbered cards due to the 4 tiers of cards all numbered. Thats alot of numbered cards and you are only getting rcs or stars..😊

    Part of it is that optic football retail color for the most part is all rated rookie (with the exception of the stars parallel I believe) where as for basketball it’s the entire checklist - rookies and vets making it much more difficult to hit color of a top rookie

I’ve pulled jack crap orthodontic so far, my wife on the other hand has pulled a purple my house wemby, silver my house wemby, Ant Man green /149 express lane, and a couple other good ones, I’m just gonna let her open everything from now on 🤣😂🤣😂

    Paper donruss had better inserts consistently. Out of optic I would say contenders even over optic. Mosiac always had better inserts then both contenders an donrus optic so... I feel u though thus yrs optic inserts are ass an it is more disappointing when the base design is so fang good this year.
