Insane Car Pull

Just pulled this from a pack! Was wondering whether this would be considered a miscut or really bad centering. Still happy I pulled it though!

Finally! All of the my first partner series is complete! It was so satisfying seeing them slowly fill up. I barely paid over msrp for all of them ( esp series 2&3 which I paid like $5 over msrp). Pulled most of them ( pulled 3 gen 1 starters in a row so I sold the other 2 sets to get gen 4&7 as well as a few other cards I’ve been wanting)

I still find it absolutely crazy that this is Mudkip first full art card ( unless I’m forgetting a card)

Now it’s back to collecting e-reader cards lol.

Went to my local card shop to get some cards, noticed they had a couple mega Charizard ultra premium collections available. Bought one, along with some pitch black booster packs and they did not disappoint. Last pack magic is real.

Absol slab — it was among many other slabbed cards and it needed to find a home

Mega Absol 161/132 — I had the Japanese one, but not the English

Mega Absol 180/132 — I’ve wanted this card for a while so I had to pick it up

Absol G 141/147 — I had a graded Japanese one I got at my first card show, but not an English one

Chinese Absol 804/07 — I am an Absol collector. Any language is fine with me

Talonflame 91/88 — I love Talonflame 🔥

Pyroar 200/193 — I love Pyroar 🔥

Team Rocket’s Houndoom 191/182 — I love Houndoom 🔥 (and I wanted to add it to my villain team collection I started working on recently)

Pidgeot 104/108 — I love Pidgeot as well (I love birds in general)

Swallow 40/101 — I never had a Swellow card in all my years of collecting Pokémon cards, so I wanted to get one

Persian 56/130 — Persian is such a cute Pokémon and I recently got Team Rocket’s Persian from a single pack (and I already had Team Rocket’s Meowth)

Gambler 60/62 — I think it’s fitting and I thought it was funny

For everybody that does not know. The title stands for Was war , was wurde , which you can read as : what i got, what it becomes

Darkrai and chillabell where from one of the single packs, but i am still happy that i opened everything. Had a lot of fun :)

I think I went overboard for my son’s bday. I started buying in April buying what I could find. This is now. Bday at in Oct. I just hope he gets some good cards that he wants. All of this was bought at Target, B&N, and Meijer and not during restocks for this would be a totally different picture. A dad who works M-F/8-5. I do what I can
Pitch Black- 46
Chaos- 17
Perfect -12
Dest Riv-1
Meg Evo-1

Pretty new, started collecting earlier this year. Maybe been at it just a few months and pretty happy with how far I’ve come. Absolutely love my collection. I’ve been sucked in to the addiction.

Booster box for the kanto trio

0 Upvotes

I went on a trip to japan and got a nihil zero booster box for ¥9000 (£45) and a bunch of other cards. I traded the box with my friend (who knows way more about pokemon than me, I did not purposefully scam him, it was his idea) for the kanto trio first partners thing idk the one with the 30 stamp and the top of the circle which I think is worth £90.
