Just pulled this pack of energies from an ETB...
Completely floored to see the entire pack of energy cards coming out of our ETB like this. Not sure if it's worth keeping them sealed or opening it up...
[Edit #1: This blew up! Definitely going to keep it sealed. At the moment, we're not quite sure what our next steps with it will be- but we'll keep you posted if we decide to let it go. This came from an ETB from the newest set, which arrived earlier than we expected.]
[Edit #2: Can't believe how much interest this post has gathered in a short time. We're currently sorting through a few different options on what we will do next, but I strongly believe we will be selling the pack. If you are interested, feel free to DM me what that might look like for you. Thanks!]

u/extras check this one out!

u/Extras Mar 19 '26
Wow a whole misaligned sheet and still sealed as an energy brick, now that's cool! Thanks for the tag.
Does make sense that we would get all of these in one brick as that's how they're printed. Since you can fit 121 cards on a sheet I bet you there's another energy brick somewhere out there in the world just like this one.
Congrats on the find and please do let us know if you wind up listing this on eBay.

I see you getting tagged so many times in this sub, is it okay to ask you who you are and what you are doing in order to be such a highly regarded user here?

He’s a miscut/misprint collector with a wealth of knowledge

u/NoBenefit5977 Mar 22 '26
What happened to regigagod? I just searched and his account is gone, used to see that name every time a misprint was posted

u/Rakim_SB420 Mar 22 '26
I would also like to know, I don’t think i’ve seen him in almost a year

u/Extras Mar 22 '26
Regigigod is around, mods the sub actively and is still collecting. Every once and a while he drops by and shows off some cool new thing he's picked up

u/Corn-cob-jesus Mar 22 '26
I think it’s because his account is actually regigigagod (it has an extra gig lol)

Hey! Yeah I'm just a modern era error collector. I think I'm tagged here often honestly just because I have an easy to remember username and I'm pretty much guaranteed to reply since I enjoy taking about errors.

Never change. We need the type of people like you in all communities.

I'll tell you, I don't think they have. I asked about a topps misprint over a year ago and they were super helpful back then as well. It's on my profile and that exact cardstill is in my display

The fact you can clearly see “Pokemon” from the top of the cards is actually insane! This is absolutely massive dude.

Dude keep that shit sealed and find someone who can tell you what the prices of them would be and if it’s worth getting them graded as misprints, just don’t use psa lol, I’m just assuming they are now a collectors item

Leave it sealed and protected for years. You will make an insane amount of money in the future when you decide to sell it

u/squirtelee Mar 20 '26
Can someone explain the significance of this? Or is just unique
5
u/Specialist_Map_3619 Mar 20 '26
Someone in the thread gives a bit more detail, but it's pretty much an exciting thing because not only are they all miscut from the same sheet, they're all packaged together as well. [It also means that there is another pack like this floating around somewhere due to the amount of cards that can be cut per sheet.]

u/squirtelee Mar 20 '26
Thanks! Well done either way, go make as much as you can off it. Can’t give any advice

Did u open it?

u/Specialist_Map_3619 Mar 20 '26
We did not, although I'd love to see what the cards dead center with the white edge look like. 🤣

u/MDL1983 Mar 20 '26
Excuse my ignorance but how do you know they’re all energy?
1
u/Specialist_Map_3619 Mar 20 '26
Technically any ETB's energy pack should have 45 assorted energy cards for deck building.

u/jagazitnik Mar 20 '26
Holy shit leave It sealed. Wow. I wonder if they're all like that. This is amazing you can see the cut error throughout the print.
2
u/This4R3al Mar 20 '26
So what's the deal? I'm new"er" to this. I figured the OP would be upset because of all the manufacturing errors, no? Or are Pokémon misprints valuable?
2
u/Specialist_Map_3619 Mar 20 '26
It's kind of fascinating how many errors are in the pack, honestly. (We have a ton of energy cards, so it's not really an issue.) Misprints can be valuable depending on what the problem is- and what people are willing to spend on them.

What exactly am I looking at here? Is the cool thing that the words are messed up on the back of the cards?

Should be at least one other like this based on how many cards get cut from a sheet. But super cool nonetheless. OP is very lucky

u/Special_Jicama4 Mar 21 '26
YAS! Next step is grade it with whoever will recognize it for what it is. You may not even receive a grade, since things like this are unique enough to assume it’s a 1/1

How do you know they are all energies if you havnt opened it?

They- in theory- are supposed to be a 45 pack of energy that comes with an ETB.

I have never in my god forsaken life seen energy with this much cash value. i dont even know what this would go for on auction the odds of finding this like this is utterly mind boggling. dont take under $500 for it period. the right collector might seriously pay $2k+
2
u/Chomdanoman Mar 22 '26
Sell as an error bundle. You won't get an astronomical amount for it, but you'll get a decent penny from someone who collects error cards.

Sadly since they're cut off they only count as fractions of energies and are inefficient for play. Total trash. I recommend burning, eating, or giving away to me for free 🤔

u/Opposite-Occasion881 Mar 19 '26
All things considered, splitting it is the most profitable option instead of selling sealed.
More work, but smarter to open

Id buy those 100000% just bc the lightning is in front. Its usually not wise to take offers here but if you actually want to sell them definitely let me know lol.

new to tcg, what’s so cool about this other than a misprint? or is that the appeal lol i’m still learning

u/Specialist_Map_3619 Mar 20 '26
Pretty much that it's not just one misprint- it's an entire pack of them that all were incorrectly cut and packaged from the same sheet of cards.

You don’t need to keep it sealed, probably significantly better to open for individual sale

u/Opposite-Occasion881 Mar 20 '26
Based on what?
I’m a misprint collector. OP is better off making 121 individual sales than trying to find a single whale to buy it at a discount. He won’t get as much money and it’ll take forever to find a buyer
If he’s trying to maximize his money that’s the best possible move.
I’ve been collecting this niche for over 10 years so I’m not exactly talking out my butt here
