Rookie cards have always been the pinnacle for collectors, it’s been that way since I was a kid collecting bubblegum cardboard packs, and I don’t see that changing anytime soon..I definitely brought that philosophy with me from cardboard into TS when I got started on the platform, thou I was out priced for most back then lol.. I hope TS uses the “first bucket” for the rooks, to make them special...
As for the new TS packs personally I think they priced these packs to high for “non rare”, $49 would’ve been better pricing as I don’t see any moment outside of Wemby being over $100 on the MP so they -EV imo....BUT of course the packs will sell out bc of the Wemby fomo and collectors chasing that pack hit so I guess I can’t blame TS when ppl continue to buy packs no matter the price point.... I’ll be passing on the packs because of my pack luck with TS/AD, almost 3 full years in, hundreds of packs and yet still never ever hit anything special from a pack so I know my luck id rip one of the Thompson Twins 😑...
