I can’t believe I got more!
Unboxing another full case of Marvel Metal Universe Avengers by Upper Deck
This is box number one of the case.
2024 SkyBox Metal Universe Avengers is part modern and part nostalgia. Drawing a lot of its inspiration from days of SkyBox’s past, some designs have been updated. The sheer level of chase levels and technology also brings it more to the present.
Past and present also plays out in the art as well with cards mixing classic interpretations of Avengers heroes and foe alongside modern takes.

Intimidation Nation is a ’90s-inspired set. To give it an Avengers theme, all 25 cards here feature different members of the Thunderbolts team.
A-Force cards are based on late ’90s SkyBox Z-Force. This carries over to their Rave parallels. Here they’re Mighty Rave, Super Rave and Gold Rave.
For those who grew up during the concurrent card and comic booms of the early 1990s, gimmick covers are probably high in the nostalgia realm. Metalheads not only takes on one of the popular cover gimmicks, embossed foil, but also uses ’90s versions of characters. Black parallels are also available.
Like other recent SkyBox Metal Universe sets, Metal-X ranks as one of the tougher chases in the product.
