Interestingly I weighed the packs from my booster box as i was curious about the new code cards as well. My lowest weight was 22.40g (2nd lightest being 22.44g) and heaviest being 22.58g. my results were not as conclusive as yours. All my hits were in the range of 22.44g - 22.53g, with only 4 packs overall being being outside that range which did not have hits at all. so my box was not really weighable from my test. makes me wonder if its somehow dependent on where the cards were printed.

I did this with a build and battle stadium (12 packs) and 10 of them were heavy with 2 being light, I opened them all and the heavy 10 were non holo while the 2 packs was a holo and a V card. So they made a set with alot of cards, low pull rates and the packs can be weighed. Quality control is really going to sh*t, I dont blame them though since Pokemon is in high demand they are probably working non stop. They could probably be printing Brilliant stars and the set after and reprinting stuff to keep up with the demand.

This is very interesting. However, maybe pokemon plans to mix it up with each print wave or each set and make the code cards weigh all sorts of different so what might work right this second, or in this region, it might not work later on or in another region. (Let us hope. . .)

I got the same results all black are halo rares and white non halo rare. I got 4 regular blisters and 2 check lane blisters. 2 halo rares Deoxys, Landorus and one appleturn v. The white code cards weigh heavier and the black ones weigh less. The check lane ones were duds. This wants me to not buy anymore and I'm skeptical about the ETB's from Fusion Strike. Maybe I just buy the other Evolving Skies ETB. I might just stick with the 3 pack blister packs or just collect the other sets, like Celebrations, Evolving skies. You should try regular blister packs, the 3 pack ones, the one pack check lane and ETB for results.

Also weighed the code cards. For white borders, average weight is 1.4g from BB, 1.6g from blister. Black borders, 1.26g from BB, 1.4g from blister. No idea why they'd be different. Overall, 22.3-22.39 is hit range, from my findings.

To your end point about the card stock of the two different types of code cards, I think the entire idea of the different colored code cards is that one is heavier to offset the difference between a dud pack and a hit pack. Clearly not enough work was done to make sure the new dud pack code cards are weighted properly to even out the pack weights, and instead the white code cards are made too heavy. Just another example of the poor quality control. I did see some videos that showed checklane blisters are all about the same weight, so those seem to have been made different. I have a booster box on the way and some checklane blisters here, and once I have everything, I am going to do some weighing.
@DrApplesauceTwo
@DrApplesauceTwo 2 жыл бұрын
Yep! I think the best solution with these new code cards would be to have three or four different card stocks that are used for both of the different colors of code cards creating 6 to 8 different variations of the code cards

Bro, I was half way through opening my fusion box while watching KZfaq videos and stumbled upon your video. Weighed the rest of the packs and what you showed is absolutely true. I didn't have any 22.22gms.6 packs weight between 22.30 and 22.39 with all black cards. Anything above 22.45 are all white cards. Damn..now I have to think if I want to open the 2nd box I have. I bought a lot of single packs without knowing this and 90% of the time no hits. Even my target employee confirmed that someone was weighing all the packs day before I purchased. Luckily I didn't purchase large quantity single packs.

What makes it lighter? is it the holo material is lighter than the paint they would use?

The code cards. They used different card stock for the two differnt code cards.
@professororange7766
@professororange7766 2 жыл бұрын
To the best of my knowledge: The holo material is lighter. Holographic effects are usually made using a tiny sheet of aluminum, which replaces the amount of paper that would have been occupying the same space. Aluminum is about 30 g/sq meter less dense (ie. lighter) than paper, and cardstock is just thick paper. The reason TPCi has had green and white code cards for years now (and the reason they always correspond to hits or NOT) is because the code cards are made 2 different weights, to help offset the weight difference in holo and non-holo packs. In order for this to work though, the HEAVIER code cards are supposed to go with the FOILS. It seems in Fusion Strike that the flimsy, less thick card ("black card" in the video) was placed in the packs with the already lighter cards. Addendum: To answer the original question: yes. The holo material is lighter that what would be in a normal (non-foil card).

Maybe it’s flip flopped sometimes. You could still weigh all the packs, see if there are more heavy or light packs, and assume the lesser quantity is the hits.
