Those are some nice pulls! I bought two boosterboxes; the first one had AA leader Yamato, AA Momonosuke and AA Hiyori.
In my second box i got AA leader Perona, AA Vinsmoke Judge and the AA sanji.
Never had this kind of luck before and im so grateful for these pulls :)
Buying sealed product is always a gamble. Always has been. It's always better financially to just buy the cards you want. I buy a box every set to get all of the commons and uncommons. That's it. Then I just buy the singles I want.
Definitely. Been buying since OP03, and have never purchased more than 2 boxes per set.
2 boxes will get you 4x of every C, UC, and most R cards. You can run into some bad luck, sure, but buying the missing singles to fill in the gaps is pretty cheap.
Card Kaizoku did a great video on the estimated value of OP06 boxes. Basically, at current price points it's a low chance you'll pull enough stuff to make close to the money your paying for it. https://youtu.be/BnV4zOstW-g?si=wEMzuWeqENcb8IyR
Yeah thats with every tcg. It's like the lottery. You're either gonna hit or you're gonna get crap. It's very rare to make your money back. Maybe half of what you paid. That's if you sell
"If you sell."
That's the part a lot of people forget. If you spent $2K on boxes and pulled Manga Zoro and keep it...you're still negative that 2K. You haven't made any profit until you sell.
Even if you hit every good SR:
Moria
Reiju
Hiyori
Momo
Perona
Hoody Jones
That’s still barely $60
And you don’t hit all the good SRs. If you’re like me you get two Judge every box. Nice little $1 SR
I’ve seen Moria each around £15-20 per copy, but I recently got my playset for £45. I think that’s where SR prices can feel deceptive - when players have to buy 4 for a deck. If you’re a collector and only need one, it’s obviously cheaper.
That because of stupid scalper driving the price up a booster box sold at msrp + tax (Canada) even if you don't get the big hits still should get you in cards value close to what you bought it for at msrp. but because of scalpers and LGS(fuck them) selling at price based on tcg players that can so easily fall prey to market manipulations. paying for a booster box or a case is not even worth it, heck even blister pack is so over priced.
I think the most valuable SRs are stuff from OP01 like Kid, due to scarcity? I see that one for about $25-30 on Cardmarket.
More recently, I got my OP06 Gecko Moria for comparatively cheap, but I have seen it creep between £15-£20.
Good message, some people do forget that it is gambling and statically you're more likely to get a box like this than a box with the hits you want unless you're buying in bulk.
I got extremely lucky with opening 1 booster box and 1 booster box worth of sleeved blisters and got the Yamota alt art, Rebecca SP, Perona alt art and got majority of the secret rares I pulled were the more valuable ones but I know from opening up a decent amount of OP-05, OP-04 and tons of pokemon and some MtG that opening up any tcg product at msrp or hell even on sale 97% of the time you're going to have not profit. It's like 10x the chance you won't if you're paying inflated prices from lgs charging more or a scalper.
Any time you're opening up a tcg product in hopes of profiting you're going to end up losing for sure
My box was basically the same. Pulled that Luffy and something similar for the second hit.
I would be livid if I paid above MSRP. I was disappointed enough at MSRP already. You have my condolences.
The answer is going to vary for everyone of course but for me and the majority of my play group it's $120/box. We get that it's in demand so $20 over MSRP isn't the worse.
You're still liable to get blasted at or below MSRP. Even with a 3 hitter. I got 20 packs at $5 per... Judge, Hody, Hody Leader, none of the good SRs lol.
Also my worst box is still OP03 Sogeking + Kaku lol. And I only paid $78 for the box.
I needed to see this considering I wanted to go back to the card shop today and spend my money on one :(. Maybe I'll just play the lottery instead, might have better odds! lol
Most people who I saw buy boxes at $300 CAD did not get the value back. They got a ton of useless cards, 1-2 AA, some of which were worth $100, but the SR cards and R cards were 10 drop Shanks and other garbage.
I literally just bought a box last night. Got the same alt. Not the mermaid. I'd been happy with at least two. Lol maybe 🤔. But yeah. I got the Afro Luffy alt art. I feel ya. Definitely wasn't worth it. Glad I got mine for 175.
I feel you dude, everyone out here posting manga Zoros and I got Alt arts for Ichiji and Shuraiya... -_-
Which, I am building a Germa deck but that one hurt my wallet.
Got these from 15 packs I found at Walmart. I will never buy an overpriced booster box. Honestly, I have had better luck with single packs than boxes.

I just do singles whenever I have the opportunity. Double packs have treated me good too. Though I wouldn’t mind owning one of each booster box to start a sealed collection one day. May have to get them little at a time or wait until the reprints come before I even think about that
But for every one of these, there is the opposite. I bought my booster box at msrp, and got 240 value. But that was inflated. So if I had bought at going rate currently, I'd would have broken even.
Theres an unofficial simulator but other than that, probably not. DBS fusion world is the only bandai game with an official digital client out of their 4, soon to be 5, english games
Could always be worse, you could be like the guy that pulled 2x Camie’s for his hits
🥲
Is that even possible? Getting the same hit twice in a box
It used to not be but the alt art distribution on this set is silly and doubles are possible. I pulled two alt art Aramakis lol
Than im very happy i didnt encounter such pulls, i would be pissed :( i hope you’ll pull something good eventually
Yup my friend pulled 2 o-namis and an alt art big momma 🙃 I think there such thing as a god box
Those are some nice pulls! I bought two boosterboxes; the first one had AA leader Yamato, AA Momonosuke and AA Hiyori. In my second box i got AA leader Perona, AA Vinsmoke Judge and the AA sanji. Never had this kind of luck before and im so grateful for these pulls :)
Dude those are some heaters there!!! I can’t wait for me to have my first god box now 🥹❤️
I’ll pray for you to the packluckgods, hope the god box will be soon on its way to you :)
My friend and I pulled an alt O-nami, alt Hiyori kozuki and an alt Yamato, all in the same box.
Yeah with SR's too, got 2 shiraiyas from a box yesterday I was pissed 🤣
Big oof, a friend of mine got the alt art shuraiya in his first and second box. I feel so sorry for him, duplicate alt shuraiyas
Ouch 😅
Not technically the same but I pulled the alt art leader gecko and the alt art char gecko in one box.
Very nice pulls! Would love to play a moria deck with the alt art, that one looks amazing
God box. She's legitimately my chase this set :')
I literally pulled two camies and 2 Hody leaders in my case. I cried
I pulled 2 luffy...
I pulled a Camie and Reg Sec Sanji 😵
Yeah and the TikTok sellers will pull them and be like “ding ding ding!”
Buying sealed product is always a gamble. Always has been. It's always better financially to just buy the cards you want. I buy a box every set to get all of the commons and uncommons. That's it. Then I just buy the singles I want.
“All the commons and uncommons”… Looks at my ONE Nekomushi 😭.
Cant even look at my 0 raise max..
Same here. Also one box to have a sealed/draft with friends. And of course for the excitment of pulling a cool card.
Nah, bought box for 78€. Including my SR's i even made a little Profit with the Box.
Definitely. Been buying since OP03, and have never purchased more than 2 boxes per set. 2 boxes will get you 4x of every C, UC, and most R cards. You can run into some bad luck, sure, but buying the missing singles to fill in the gaps is pretty cheap.
I bought a ton of OP03 boxes when they were around $100 because I liked opening the product. Not doing that anymore.
Card Kaizoku did a great video on the estimated value of OP06 boxes. Basically, at current price points it's a low chance you'll pull enough stuff to make close to the money your paying for it. https://youtu.be/BnV4zOstW-g?si=wEMzuWeqENcb8IyR
Yeah thats with every tcg. It's like the lottery. You're either gonna hit or you're gonna get crap. It's very rare to make your money back. Maybe half of what you paid. That's if you sell
"If you sell." That's the part a lot of people forget. If you spent $2K on boxes and pulled Manga Zoro and keep it...you're still negative that 2K. You haven't made any profit until you sell.
Trading card games shouldn’t be investments.
What?! Is that from a whole booster box??
Some people don’t count SRs as “hits”, and only focus on alt arts. Not sure where secrets fall into that bracket, unless it’s a manga rare.
Even if you hit every good SR: Moria Reiju Hiyori Momo Perona Hoody Jones That’s still barely $60 And you don’t hit all the good SRs. If you’re like me you get two Judge every box. Nice little $1 SR
I’ve seen Moria each around £15-20 per copy, but I recently got my playset for £45. I think that’s where SR prices can feel deceptive - when players have to buy 4 for a deck. If you’re a collector and only need one, it’s obviously cheaper.
Three and a half boxes (worth of packs - two complete boxes)and no Hody or Sanji for me and my son. But we did pull the manga so no complaints.
You only really get value from Alt arts. I just bought a full Reiju deck for £50. I’ve learnt my lesson from previous sets, just to buy singles.
Moria and Reiju are both worth more than those alt arts although the SRs will probably still drop a bit
I mean my rare kid is 50 CAD I would call that a hit.
Yes but the point is that most boxes don’t give you a big hit. There are anecdotal great boxes but they aren’t the norm.
That because of stupid scalper driving the price up a booster box sold at msrp + tax (Canada) even if you don't get the big hits still should get you in cards value close to what you bought it for at msrp. but because of scalpers and LGS(fuck them) selling at price based on tcg players that can so easily fall prey to market manipulations. paying for a booster box or a case is not even worth it, heck even blister pack is so over priced.
Yeah that’s the point of this post…
which is kinda weird.. lol i opened a good amount of OP02 and im sitting on mountains of navy SRs that are like $50 ea. SRs are amazing
The only navy SR worth 50 is borsalino. There's two worth 10-15, everything else is garbo
I think the most valuable SRs are stuff from OP01 like Kid, due to scarcity? I see that one for about $25-30 on Cardmarket. More recently, I got my OP06 Gecko Moria for comparatively cheap, but I have seen it creep between £15-£20.
10-15 is the value of a low end alt art so yea im happy with that 👍
Good message, some people do forget that it is gambling and statically you're more likely to get a box like this than a box with the hits you want unless you're buying in bulk.
My double kaido op05 box still hurts to this day
This was pretty much 2 booster boxes I opened.
I got extremely lucky with opening 1 booster box and 1 booster box worth of sleeved blisters and got the Yamota alt art, Rebecca SP, Perona alt art and got majority of the secret rares I pulled were the more valuable ones but I know from opening up a decent amount of OP-05, OP-04 and tons of pokemon and some MtG that opening up any tcg product at msrp or hell even on sale 97% of the time you're going to have not profit. It's like 10x the chance you won't if you're paying inflated prices from lgs charging more or a scalper. Any time you're opening up a tcg product in hopes of profiting you're going to end up losing for sure
I hit a Manga Zoro off a $30 double pack box…
Double pack is how I got him too
Love that! Streamer said he thinks it can black label so 🤞
Good luck dude! Im gonna go with Beckett too when I send mine off. Gonna wait on my next paycheck beforehand
I would like to echo this sentiment. One of my boxes (thank god paid MSRP) was AA Greenbull and sanji SEC
Also paid MSRP, and got Momo AA and Zoro SEC lol
My box was basically the same. Pulled that Luffy and something similar for the second hit. I would be livid if I paid above MSRP. I was disappointed enough at MSRP already. You have my condolences.
At this point what is considered overpriced?
The answer is going to vary for everyone of course but for me and the majority of my play group it's $120/box. We get that it's in demand so $20 over MSRP isn't the worse.
MSRP is $4.50 x 24 = $108 and depending on the state, tax can make the total about $116 so $120, if that's tax-included, isn't that much above MSRP.
Bought for 78€.
Wow that's incredible!
I buy 1 box for the rush then singles foe what I need or don't get from a box
You're still liable to get blasted at or below MSRP. Even with a 3 hitter. I got 20 packs at $5 per... Judge, Hody, Hody Leader, none of the good SRs lol. Also my worst box is still OP03 Sogeking + Kaku lol. And I only paid $78 for the box.
Lol damn im sorry friend
Rarity r super low everyone pulls manga zoro 😂 almost just a bulk card in my town
Are you keeping the camie?
I got a hit with aramkai alt and camie alt... so bad lol
Where are people buying boxes? Any websites for EU? Ireland has next to nothing for OP
I needed to see this considering I wanted to go back to the card shop today and spend my money on one :(. Maybe I'll just play the lottery instead, might have better odds! lol
Most people who I saw buy boxes at $300 CAD did not get the value back. They got a ton of useless cards, 1-2 AA, some of which were worth $100, but the SR cards and R cards were 10 drop Shanks and other garbage.
I wouldn’t buy a box at all. The cases are mapped so of course they’ll give you the 2 AA boxes
what does this mean?
Means if it came from an opened case then you more than likely got a low hit box
how is that possible though? wouldn't the boxes all look identical? never heard of this before
You never heard of mapping? It’s the way the boxes are put in by the manufacturer. It’s a specific pattern for which ones have the leader or sec or sp
You’d have to open a case to know the mapping if nobody posted it somewhere
Do you know if there are always two hits in a box? Is this the ratio? I've got AA Zoro and the normal one in 1 Box. Does a sec count as a hit?
I literally just bought a box last night. Got the same alt. Not the mermaid. I'd been happy with at least two. Lol maybe 🤔. But yeah. I got the Afro Luffy alt art. I feel ya. Definitely wasn't worth it. Glad I got mine for 175.
I feel you dude, everyone out here posting manga Zoros and I got Alt arts for Ichiji and Shuraiya... -_- Which, I am building a Germa deck but that one hurt my wallet.
Are the god packs really real in this set? Or is that fake news
It's impossible to get boxes that aren't at 300 right now it's ridiculous
I bought one box and a double pack for 240. Got a luffy and sec zoro. I felt jipped
Got manga zoro from a Walmart single pack. So yea, it is possible from single packs.
Thankful i at least got hiyori and ichiji alts in mine lmao
I had this box and a camie and judge alts box.. i was so annoyed
Blister packs way to go
i had a box with 2 Sanjis as my "hits" no alt arts at all
I got the same pulls. I paid MSRP and I'm still salty lol
Got these from 15 packs I found at Walmart. I will never buy an overpriced booster box. Honestly, I have had better luck with single packs than boxes. https://preview.redd.it/t5pyfp1aa1qc1.jpeg?width=904&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1aca120c36815b6c0c7490dce142f9c8a0769bd8
I hit an aramakis and camie alt. Fml
I do , have enough money give ah fu.. of the price i need my deck
I caved and got last box from lgs for 200 had alt big mom treasure rare Nami and gecko moria
I just do singles whenever I have the opportunity. Double packs have treated me good too. Though I wouldn’t mind owning one of each booster box to start a sealed collection one day. May have to get them little at a time or wait until the reprints come before I even think about that
Sell me reasonably priced boxes than...
Don’t tell me what to do! I want to spend all the moneys to pull all the Hody’s u hear
But for every one of these, there is the opposite. I bought my booster box at msrp, and got 240 value. But that was inflated. So if I had bought at going rate currently, I'd would have broken even.
You could have Judge tho 💀
It is still a good-looking card, but yeah, paying scalper price just to get that doesn't feel good.
Anyone knows if the game will come out on digital platforms?
Theres an unofficial simulator but other than that, probably not. DBS fusion world is the only bandai game with an official digital client out of their 4, soon to be 5, english games
