Halfway through 2024. What have you achieved?

@gengarbrigade NICE loot! There’s some serious street cred there.


I’ve achieved personal and creative re-centering.

…And my Vs Series is coming along.

Among many smaller goals I have accomplished, I think one of the biggest ones so far this year is rounding out my Trainer Deck A and B collecting. I would still like to complete the remainder of the full sets, but getting sealed decks and the Machamp and Blastoise in a high grade was a huge win for me. They are more niche but I really love this portion of my collection :star_struck:

Beyond collecting more modern set cards, I’ve worked on obtaining more promos including ponchos.




A few months ago I also had the pleasure of adding a special kangaroo to my collection.

I think in my 2024 goals thread i stated that i wanted to get:
Salamence ex deoxys psa 10 english
Salamence ex dragonfrontiers psa 10 english
Salamence ex dragonfrontiers 1st edition psa 10 jpn

I have got the 2 english cards now and i have 2 copies of the japanese card at psa currently.

Fingers crossed.

Aside from that i didnt do much other collecting this year but in the last couple of weeks i opened an ebay store for fun and to make some profit

I have achieved an improvement in my mental health by taking a small step back from social media and PTCG :>

Base - Gym 2 Binder ✓
Neo - Genesis & Discovery ✓, Revelation 3 to go (Entei, Ho-oh, Raikou), Destiny 15 to go :frowning:
Black Star - around half way done, probably skip the PCNY ones tbh.
Modern binder - various cards purchased, but this wasn’t feasibly getting done with all these other goals within 2024. Once I’m done w/ Neo and black star I can start seriously knocking these out since so many are just £5-10 or less.

E-series - worryingly I want to start working on these. I have even purchased a yellow binder. OOF.

Glad to see all the progress on the thread!
In IRL achievements, new job started and positive vibes after a rough time in 2H 2023 regarding mental health. :smiley:

Just being back into the hobby has made me so happy.

When thing got too crazy in 2021 I sold 99.9% of my collection and moved on with my life but I couldn’t get myself not to look at the market or lurk around here once in a while.

I’ve bought an old prize card (grand party) & a trophy card that I am beyond happy to own. For now it will do for my 2024 collecting goals!
