@amwolf,

Thank you so much for your kind and generous gift! The artwork is amazing, and the blastoise from Expedition is exactly what I needed to match the other one I have!

Definitely saving the pop series for Christmas but the other two packs had awesome hits!

(If you can enjoy the codes, please go ahead and grab them!)

Have a safe and happy holidays everyone!

So glad to see you enjoyed the gifts! Hopefully I can see what you pulled from you POP series 3 packs later.

Glad you enjoy the Blastoise, I know it’s pretty damaged but if it helps you, I’m glad :blush:

Amazing drawings so far

Everyone, I am REALLY sorry I think a huge mistake happened. I am actually involved in two secret santas this year, and I think that in my infinite wisdom I actually opened the wrong gift and posted it last night! I didn’t think my other friends would have gotten me something that nich but here we are. I’m very very sorry! :sob:

I received my Secret Santa gift this weekend from @chok . They really did a great job finding something that I don’t have much of in my collection: figurines!. My cat was also very interested in sniffing the pralines, thank you for the wonderful gift.

I opened up the figurine boxes and assembled them, here is what was inside: A Gengar, Pidgeot, and Gardevoir. I put all three figures on my desk in my office. Thanks again @chok !

I received my Secret Santa present from @mrtz today!! Thank you so much!! I love it and this was one of the first Piplup promo cards I bought back in the day, so to have it in PSA 10 is very special. Thank you!! :blue_heart:

Even though I’m not very active on E4 right now I heard about the Secret Santa and how fun it is. Decided to sign up. Had a lot of fun with both sides of it. 10/10 recommend.

Dude. @dreamtech, you really made my day. Whatever your goals are for illustrating I wish you the best, man! Your dedication and passion really shows.

I’m a binder collector and I didn’t own any of these cards yet! I also noticed he took special attention to the Pokemon in my E4 signature. Well done. :blush:

As soon as I saw the note I knew exactly what type of cards these would be. Meiji chocolate promos!

You know what’s better than art? Art from the artist themself!
I’m going to get these posters framed when I can. The art itself is cool but these copies will hold a special memory. :blush:

Oh, what’s this?

WOAH!

Great stuff. Thank you so much. :blush:

Wow good work guys, I’m impressed

I’m glad everything made it there safely! I was nervous since the poster box was so large and the cards might be rattling around loose inside.

If 30 years later I become some super famous artist you’re welcome to sell those prints on heritage auctions :stuck_out_tongue:

@deltazero THANK YOU! This gift was awesome and a ton of fun to open on camera.
I recorded the opening here:www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYlT8JjA9UY

But here is a still photo

Thank you so much for the FA trainers, the DBS anniversary box, the PSA card to giveaway on my youtube channel, and the 6 booster packs (3 pulls, not a bad ratio!)
I especially love the drawing of two of my absolute favorite pokemon. Thank you for putting so much thought into this!

Got my secret Santa gift from Quinlan! (I couldn’t find your username) Stoked on all the japanese goodies in here, the joker card is super cool and I have always wanted some Topsun cards! And who could forget the Zard, which is my first graded card EVER, and I needed the Luxray to help finish up Celebrations! All in all an awesome gift and will make some great additions to my collection, thank you!

@shadowrex, I am so glad that you enjoyed your Secret Santa gift! Your YouTube video opening the gift was a ton of fun. Thank you for complimenting my drawings of Gengar and Steelix too. When I was shopping for your full art trainer cards I did my best to find PSA 10 quality copies, but I could not find a single nice looking card that wasn’t a bit off center in the back. I hope that they still grade well despite the centering. Cheers!

MASSIVE thanks to @qwachansey , for these gifts, honestly stunned still. I had no idea these items even existed and am extremely excited to add them to my collection forever!!!

The coolest deck box ever that I had no idea even existed! It has both celebi and swablu on it (two pokemon that I heavily collect)- a rare combination. The only other item I’m aware of is one of the illusion’s zorua cards, so I’m beyond stoked to own this. It’s to celebrate the Singapore Pokemon Center’s 1 year anniversary:

Edit:
Gift so stacked I overlooked a MINT piplup PPP promo:

The quagsire plush joins the family.

This has always been my favorite full art card and trainer since it was released, glad to have my first graded copy!

I’m glad you enjoyed it :blush: I really like the deck box too! It was fun to search for merchandise with your preferred Pokémon. Check the cardboard packaging because you may have missed a Piplup promo card :wink:

I went and bought this card when I saw your post. Such a nice artwork and the silver borders are what does it for me. I’ll have to slowly buy the rest of the set over time…
