Breakin' Wax:2021 Playbook Football Mega Box

Every week when I go to Walmart, there is no shortage of finding cards anymore.

Between the prices and the overflow, there is always something to buy.

The only problem is, these products don't come with a "don't buy me" warning.

For example today's box. It's a overpriced retail box that didn't quite provide much, check it out here,

Every mega box of 2021 Playoff football comes with 4 packs of 5 cards. Each box has an autograph or memorabilia card and each box is $50.

The base cards are kinda bland with a little action photography. They mainly focus on the player.

Here were the rookies I pulled in this break. Harris was the best one but the one I was most excited about was the Quincy Roche rookie which was my first Giants card of his.

Each box also guarantees two bronze parallels, here were mine.

I believe one of these parallels are per box as well. These look amazing, just wished I had pulled a Giants one. I may need to track one down.

Next up were my insert pulls,


(nice Fields!)

The insert designs for this product were kinda lame. Felt like filler cards or subset cards to me.

Now onto what you money banks on in this break. The hit....
Memorabilia card of Derrick Henry. Nothing too special, great player, but definitely not worth the $50 price tag.

Overall, this box was awful. I have seen this on the shelves a few times now at Walmart and left it. I don't plan on going back for another round at all.

Thoughts on this break welcomed in comments.

PACK WARS EPISODE 7

Hello once again! Here is the latest installment of Pack Wars!

We have quite the battle going on today with the battle of Mega Boxes, one by Topps and one by Panini. There can only be one winner so let's check this out.

 VS 
It's time to see if the Mega Box of 2021 Bowman I found at Walgreens can take down the Box of 2020 Optic Mega I trade for.

And it all starts now with Optic,
Carolina Blue Parallels

Mythical Inserts, Lindor is a silver Parallel

 
Alonso Silver

Daza Silver

Bart Silver


Inserts including a couple Gavin Lux and Acuna

Bo Bichette Rated Rookie

And a surprise auto....of a pitcher.

Now the Bowman Mega,
Prospect Parallels. Not too many big names in the mix

Rookies and Prospects I found

Top Players

 
Best Card?

I know many don't want to hear it or even see it, but Optic has gotta win here right? It had an auto, it had some good player parallels but is unlicensed. I want to hear your thoughts in comments below!
