In a recent Twitch livestream, Edwin "Castro1021" packed a Cristiano Ronaldo Panini card from a $6,000 trading card box. Castro is an avid collector of Panini football cards, and often opens them on livestreams. This is not the first time he has pulled an exclusive Ronaldo card either.
The streamer revealed that he got hold of the first ever Impeccable card box, which set him back $6K. When he saw that his first pull was none other than the Manchester United forward, he exclaimed:
"That's how you wanna start off!"

While speaking to his chat, he disclosed the first packet from the case. His excitement was evident as he trumpeted:
"It's red! We're starting off with a United player in Impeccable. We're starting off with United!..."

Being a fan of the Red Devils, he was naturally very elated. He yelled excitedly:
"Starting off with a Manchester United player. I already saw the red!"
Castro1021, upon realizing that he had packed none other than the Portuguese star, was elated. As he turned the card around, he discovered that it was the 45th card in a total production of 65. He exclaimed:
"45 of 65. That is exactly how you wanna start. It has a cover on it. I'm not gonna peel it off!"
This isn't the first time that Castro has pulled Ronaldo. Last month, he packed an exclusive One of One card on his birthday. His previous pack even included a minute part of Ronaldo's match-worn shirt.
After Ronaldo, Castro went on to pull other cards as well, such as a Harry Maguire card, which he decided to give away.

Fans on the chat were as overjoyed as Castro. Seeing his incredible pack luck, the comments on his YouTube channel extended their regards. Here are some of the observations under the video:
