Hi guys,
Yes, in my last H.H. rip, I did find a Wemby.
Unfortunately, just a base!
Maybe, this time?
How 'bout a Candy Corn Victor?
Let's GO...


Thanks
🙂

    Yes, Got the Candy Corn!
    However, not the
    Victor
    but the Craig.
    Craig Porter Jr.
    😆
    Oh well...


    Still a $35 Find.
    😎
    Thanks

    So, I'm of the school of "do not open," but this is the one thing I've had fun with.

    On a few occasions, my two boys and I have opened these. We usually each pick a column in box and then do a draft of the remainder of the packs. We do a pack war, or sorts - noboby wins anything, just compares who ends up with the best pack with each round. My boys love it, which makes me happy.

    I think we've done 4 of these - we haven't pulled a single candy corn. But, for $30, each, it has been a cheap, fun Sunday night activity with the boys and you get a lot of packs to open for the price.

    Sounds like tons of fun!
    However, I don't know where you live but where I live.
    Each package goes for only $21!
    Maybe, you can get it cheaper online?
    Regardless, these are an inexpensive fun rip!
    Good Luck.

    Wow, that's awesome. It's $30 at Costco in central CA. Still, for 90 packs, which gives us 30 each, it's a cheap, fun rip.

    Edit to add - I see the difference between what I get and yours - your has 40 packs per bundle. The ones at Costco here are 90 packs. Where do you get yours?

    Oh?
    Didn't notice your package has 50 more packs!
    Then, your deal is much better than mine.
    I live in Chicago. I buy mine at the local Walmarts.
    Thanks 😊

    3 cards per pack, what a waste of packaging materials.

    Not at all. These are made to give away to kids at Halloween. Much better then a tootsie roll or sucker imo.

    How much did it sale for is one of the funniest and most ignorant things I've ever heard.

    4th Attempt!
    Candy Corn Victor???

    Nice pulls!

    My kids and I did one last night. There were three base Wembys - 2 rising stars and 1 regular. We only pulled one spider of a no-name. There are typically 60 oranges and 30 slimes per, plus or minus for the spiders. This box had a lot of duplication. My younger one's frustration of pulling Grant Williams three times was humorous, but he was redeemed by pulling and orange of his guy, Brandin Podziemski.

    That was our 5th from Costco and have yet to pull a candy corn. I'm wondering if either we're super unlucky, or if the candy corn are more common in the 40 pack variety. Still, we had a good time.

    Brandin, is a good player!
