Jesse-Lee Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Only one pack left at my Walmart - must have gotten cleaned out because in the past these would just sit. This one was mixed in with a bunch of DCs: Here are the books: ASM 55, but not the one I was hoping for: But this next one is the 1:50 “hidden gem” variant - last couple of sales on eBay were $45 and $50: WeR138 and awakeintheashes 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Jesse-Lee Posted August 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2021 Popped into another Wal-Mart today while I was out shopping, and they had 5 of the new Marvel packs on the shelf. The FOMO is real, so I dropped the $45 and took them home. Let's see how I did: Pack 1 (these are in the order I opened them, dollar amounts next to them are a rough estimate of value based on recent eBay sales): Star Wars High Republic 6 - $4; Black Panther 166 (Lentincular homage to Hulk 340) - $5; King in Black Return of the Valkyries 3 (Nauck headshot variant) - $1 Extreme Carnage Marvel Alpha - $3; Wolverine 10 - $3; Venom 34 2nd Print - $3 Star Wars War of the Bounty Hunters 1 - $5; Shang Chi 5 - $4; Spider-man 5 (Pichelli variant) - $4 X-Men 1 - $4; Amazing Spider-Man 55 (1:10 Miles variant) - $5; Excalibur 1 (1:10 Design variant) - $3 Star Wars High Republic 6 - $4; Jean Grey 11 (Hugo connecting variant) - $7 And then literally the last book in the last pack I opened (with the above Star Wars and Jean Grey Books): Moon Knight 200 Sienkiewicz Remastered 1:500 Color Variant. Last 5 sales - $175 (8/9); $150 Best Offer (8/9); $189 (8/1); $190.07 (7/21); $152.50 (7/1) maidenmate91, Mighty Hal, Crops068 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topcat54 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Went to Walmart yesterday and got these I think the Spiderman is a 1: 1000 Guardians Of The Galaxy # 13 shattered HULK SPECTACULAR SPIDERMAN # 300 only 1 for sale on the bay and he was asking a really crazy price for it so this one will go up on the block soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeR138 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 (edited) My local Walmart usually gets these as soon as they are out. But for some reason they didn't show up until today. Bought 4 packs and I'm 2 for 4. Pack 1, I recognized the Captain Marvel 1 Hidden Gem by it's spine. Packs 2 and 3 both had middle books with full-length teal spines showing. Could I be lucky enough to pull 2 Thor 1 blue blank variants? First one I opened. Yikes, that's not what I'm looking for. In for a penny, so I open the 3rd pack: Well, that's more like it. Pack 4 was a random grab and had nothing in it. No Gleason 55's. Edited August 13, 2021 by WeR138 ADAMANTIUM and Jesse-Lee 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksR Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Drove around this weekend and all my walmarts have been cleaned out. There’s guys on youtube saying they’re buying $300 of them at a time so I’m not surprised mysterymachine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started to get a little obsessed and hit 2 more stores after that and they were sold out. I'm kind of glad they were, it snapped me out of the chase and I stopped going anywhere else. At the end of the day I'm happy with what I found, but I realized 4 of the 6 packs I bought were basically junk and I was chasing. While it's kind of fun to pull a bigger book, I decided my time and money were better spent on going after books I knew I wanted. ectocooler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped collecting modern Marvel books about 10 years ago so it’s not about collecting or $, it’s all about chasing that dopamine. Like the comic book equivalent of those blind box toys. The toys always suck but there’s an allure to the mystery of what’s inside. At least comics are cool (mostly). I hit up a few more walmarts after that but they were all cleared out. My brother hit one out by him and someone stole the variant books which is nonsense. Jesse-Lee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really have an issue with people seeing the edges of the ASM 55 and buying, I get that. But outright theft or even ruining the books by trying to move them around in the packs to get a better look inside sucks. And the funny thing is, I bought my packs at two different stores and both the places looked picked over, but ironically the books I ended up hitting on were as good or better than the 55. But I agree, it's 100% like blind boxes and it really does get you with the dopamine/chase mentality. Like, what am I going to do with 3 copies of Star Wars High Republic 6? It's admittedly a cool cover; I do love Rancor. But it's a PITA to sell $4 comics on eBay, been there done that. I will admit that I already listed my 1:500 Moon Knight though, hoping it'll get me some funds toward a book I really want. Are you planning on that with your 1:1000?

Haha yeah I’ve been reading them and tossing them in the recycling. Increase the value of everyone else’s by a small amount. And yeah I listed mine too but I’ve been debating taking it down and sending it in to be graded and possibly keeping/displaying it. It is a really cool cover and I’ve always liked Moon Knight. Good luck with the sale PeterPark and Jesse-Lee 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
