Got this in the mail today and was extremely surprised! I have never had a card with such a well placed swirl. Definitely going in the personal collection !!
That is awesome looking:)
Iāve always had an eye for swirls whenever I buy cards. Iāve got quite a few but theyāre all stored up. I did manage to dig this one up from storage to show you guys, itās my favorite one! I promise Iāll dig up some more when I get off work
Like a moth to the swirls Sometimes they add a story to an artwork - thatās why I bought this one.
Absolutely love that placement! Itās perfect! Gotta post mine at some point.
Here are some more I was able to dig up before work, Iāll find some more later. Enjoy!
This one is awesome because itās also a holo bleed. In the right lighting the border looks gold.
One of my favorite cards, it hits right in the nostalgia. Glad it has a swirl.
Good ol swirl being shy
A little more to the bottom and it wouldāve been perfect for that elemental blast!
1st secret rare, mint, raichu and has a swirl! I had to snag this one up
I like how this one is on a prerelease card but itās kind of hard to capture the swirl since itās in a dark background
Last but not least good ol snorlax with another majestic god tier new age swirl!
Went through my collection today and decided to participate in the swirl hunt. So here is what I found:
Got to look through the rest of my cards but while wiping down my slabbed cards, I had to appreciate the swirl on my very first Shining Gyarados:
My entry:
some seriously mid tier swirls being posted itt rn
quality over quantity

Now what could be more godly than the Godās swirl right here?! Nice
Meganium one seems the best
Just noticed this an hour ago while taking pics to sell it.

I was going through some bulk and I had like 5 1st edition metal energies and 1 of them has a crazy double swirl. I thought they could not be this close together? Anyone ever see this before (@garyis2000)? Card is NM with some light scratching, but Iām not sure what to do with it.
So I went back to that charmander card and discovered it has two different types of swirls stacked up on each other. Whatāre the oddsā¦
Thatās amazing Seems like there are two foils overlapping.
Do some cards have a standard double foil layer? I noticed that (e.g.) Mew ex has much more sparkle going on than some other holos.
The normal swirl-distribution should look like this:
@burnedos, Thatās what I thought, so I think this specific metal energy is a bit special having double swirls. They should not be so close.
@missingno,Thatās awesome for the charmander! It may be in the printing for the toys r us promo holo pattern if you can cross examine others with swirls. Could be separate overlapping too which would make it even more epic!
So close and yet so farā¦
