Not exactly ‘wotc era’ but thought I’d post them anyway

Thanks for sharing! I was looking for wotc cards that were also printed in Japan, so this is perfect. I am just more into vintage than modern.

Apart from the two already mentioned above, the WB #3 Mewtwo from the Japanese VHS is missing (lighter color and thinner Japanese card stock, like the Base Set Pikachu and other Mewtwo):

Interesting! I had no idea about this one. I think I found a couple examples for sale. One would think that mewtwo would be easier to find since it came with the vhs.

There’s a jumbo base set charizard from corocoro.

Thanks everyone who provided input! My binder collection is now complete for the Japan releases (I noticed I need to get the shadowless yellow cheeks for the US side to technically mirror both sides). I added ancient mew to the mix since it seems to fit the criteria I was going for and completes the page. Mew II cosmos would probably be a better fit for the Japan side, but this gave me an excuse to buy the corrected “Nintendo” copy I have always wanted. I haven’t seen these all in once place, so I figured I would add them all here for future reference.

Pikachu Promo #1 - CoroCoro (gray stamp)

Mewtwo Promo #3 - VHS (lighter color)

Jigglypuff Promo # 7 - CoroCoro (gray stamp)

Ancient Mew ??

What a cool binder page! I agree that Ancient Mew is a good addition. :+1:
