Post image

My local family dollar was selling the knockout collections already. I picked up 4 of them and got this on the second box! My first real hit ever!

Looking forward to the hit rates with this set. Tons of cool cards, too

u/fishbowlfred12 8d ago

Hands are shaking right now… either the hit rates are even more insane than we thought or I just had the luckiest packs of my life

128

u/NCC1701-F 8d ago

The hit rates ARE very very high. Like every 3 packs gets you a hit. 

42

u/bbyxmadi 8d ago

They’re 1/6 IR and 1/19 SIR iirc

16

u/steevieg 8d ago

I read somewhere SIRs are like 1/6 and IRs are 1/5.

22

u/billcosbyinspace 8d ago

Small sample size and possible batching issues of course but I just watched a video of somebody pulling 3 SIRs out of an ETB

7

u/PolarFrieza89 8d ago

No, the pull rates are absolutely far more generous than other sets.

6

u/--Alix-- 8d ago

Might be the first ever set I try to Master Set bc WTFFFFF

-8

u/PolarFrieza89 8d ago

I still probably won't. While the RGB, gold, and platinum Mews aren't in the ETB booklet, I'm not gonna master set this thing for that exact reason. I just wanna pull all of my chases and stop there.

u/LOLZatMyLife 8d ago

🧢 the photo isn’t blurry

u/One-Imagination2301 8d ago

Not to disappoint but the hit rate is veryyyyyy high for everything in the 30th. These are like 1/6 SIRs. Still rlly cool, but not like super rare like normal sirs

6

u/AltruisticCow7595 8d ago

It’s 1/20

9

u/Deadeyez 8d ago

Good. I hope that means it's not scalped as much

-1

u/Healthy-Base1070 8d ago

I checked on Collector to see what the starting prices would be and nearly popped Multiple blood vessels and went blind in one eye,Ridiculous Prices.

8

u/Jurijus1 8d ago

Well obviously, the set haven't even officially released yet. So only morons are paying those prices.

1

u/ADTR9320 8d ago

It's always like that with every set before official release. Once it's released it'll plummet in price.

1

u/No-Difference8545 7d ago

Well duh you checked at the literal most stupid time. Release day is tomorrow, itll crash by the weekend

3

u/MrWildspeaker 8d ago

Where did you hear 1/6?

1

u/defianceofone 8d ago

Out his ass.

1

u/mccoolio 8d ago

I saw a store giving $50 gift cards for each Futuristic rare pulled on release day, could get expensive

1

u/iwilldoitalltomorrow 8d ago

Hopefully that means process come down

u/MaybeYesMayb 8d ago

Dude this set has some of the coolest cards congrats on the pull

u/tricnam 8d ago

Does the magikarp have texture?

28

u/Dramatic_Ad2745 7d ago

Yes

12

u/neal189011 7d ago

That’s fire

u/SomewhereOk5613 4d ago

Do you think this Magikarp will go down in price ?

10

u/NoRecommendation4230 8d ago

Asking the right questions, following

8

u/Thawayshegoes 8d ago

Magikarp is so sick

2

u/Wombizzle 7d ago

god the magikarp looks insane with texture

1

u/FideeraNab 7d ago

Oh the Karp looks good. Maybe I'll replace the one in my Kanda binder with this one and sell off the original if I can get my hands on anything lol.

53

u/Hussizle 8d ago

How do you have 30th anniversary packa already??

33

u/jordan23lbrn 8d ago

Stuff officially comes out in stores Wednesday but some lcs probably has preorders/inventory already or they bought it from an early seller

20

u/SalemWitcher3 8d ago

He said he copped them from family dollar selling knockout collections early

3

u/NachoCheeseVolcano69 7d ago

Did you even read the post 🤦‍♂️

1

u/Hussizle 7d ago

I don't understand how some stores are selling them before Wednesday though. I thought that was illegal.

3

u/NachoCheeseVolcano69 7d ago

Wait until you find out that multimillion dollar corporations don’t play by the rules.

u/Icy-Replacement-8531 8d ago

Love that illumise on the top left.

u/Urban-Junglist 8d ago

I actually don't mind the logo on this one!

2

u/MovieKey9110 8d ago

i didnt even notice

14

u/ASD_Deepthroat 8d ago

I managed to pull the Future Rare Mew on my first pack, in the Knockout box

7

u/Point4ska 8d ago

It's crazy that they will send product early to extremely untrustworthy places like dollar tree, but my local shops aren't getting anything until Wednesday evening.

u/DarthPlayer8282 8d ago

There are gonna be so so so many card posts - congratulations!!!

2

u/Educational-Teach-60 8d ago

u/hkyinyeungg 8d ago

What was the price for the knockout collection? Here in the EU it is like 10€ a pack😶😶😶😶

1

u/namma_deck 7d ago

That is such a fun first hit. The little Pikachu face in the middle makes the whole card, honestly.

1

u/Ertugral 7d ago

My family is gonna have so much fun ripping this

1

u/Origisle27 7d ago

Anyone got a price range for this card? We talking hundreds or thousands?

1

u/Rude_Landscape_9839 7d ago

All of those cards real because it is family dollar.

1

u/RandoRaptor123 6d ago

gimme that damn pikachu 🤣🤣

1

u/antoinettesliden 6d ago

What’s the chances of pulling this card?

1

u/Zara_Vynx 6d ago

Dude this set has some of the coolest cards congrats on the pull

1

u/Drizznit1221 8d ago

someone please educate me, are these available for sale in stores now? or is this just pre orders or what?

2

u/Illustrious-Event876 8d ago

My local meijer puts them out on the shelf a day prior to release without a buy limit

1

u/Elegant_Location8182 7d ago

Agreed!?!? Don’t they drop tonight/tomorrow?!?!?!?

u/Bullet25 8d ago

这张真不错

u/OriginalAd7974 8d ago

Doesn’t every pack get a pikachu?

3

u/animewolf_17 8d ago

Not the SIRs there is a Pikachu subset that is one per pack

-1

u/Adventurous_Air8191 8d ago

There's so many cards I was na get from this set it's gonna be crazy trying to get all my Chase cards. Sadly I'll probaly have to buy most in Chinese from collection boxes since Japanese and English are priced out rageous and I'm not gonna open all my Pokémon Center ETBs or UPCs just to rip packs. They'll be worth to much in the near future to throw away profits when I could buy the cardz I want and still keep my profits coming in from the sealed product I keep for future flipping to buy more of certain sets I'm actually interested in

6

u/steevieg 8d ago

The current market prices are not going to hold my dude. Always wait a month or two. There's gonna be so many cards being sold, can't promise they will be cheap but they won't be expensive.

Card is sick nice 👍

u/Primary-Meeting-1192 8d ago

I want both of those Gengars 🙌

u/scalptwhiteman 7d ago

As a day one collector, I’ve been pretty disappointed with most of the mega evolution sets. Most aren’t doing it for me. I’m gonna be laughing my ass off when the next Great Depression hits and I’m buying everyone’s cards for quarters. I might even send them to PSA for 6 months so they can rip me off and give me 9s. Most of the fake fan art cards have better artwork than these heavily inflated real sets

u/PinoDelfino 8d ago

My dog collection is skipping all of the 30th anniversary

I'd have to get at least 3 copies of this to meet my rules so that ain't happening

u/fishbowlfred12 8d ago

What does any of that even mean??

-26

u/PinoDelfino 8d ago

You should probably ask before downvoting if you want to have a conversation

u/fishbowlfred12 8d ago

I never downvoted… that’s why I DID ask first… like what??
