I never know what to do with "fun packs"

Every time I come across one of these “fun packs,” I don’t know what to do with them. They usually contain 2 common cards and a guaranteed reverse holo, so I always hesitate whether to open it or keep it as part of the collection, since you know there won’t be any hits.

What do you usually do with these fun packs? I’m curious to hear your thoughts.

Always a good idea to keep this kind of thing. People every now and then will decide to collect the fun packs, and having a fun pack that’s 10 years out of print will usually have a collector wanting it at some point.

You could also use them for Halloween, etc.

I collect them sealed!

Honestly, I think they are kind of cool, as they always have a unique design different and more basic than normal ones. They also use the official artworks from the Pokemon they feature.

Btw, although they are supposed not to have any hits inside, I have heard from a couple of different people that they managed to pull Full Arts from them.

And fun fact, sometimes they might re use the same design from older sets, like Platinum and Briliant Stars :ok_hand:

Those people 100% mistook dollar store packs (which also contain three cards, but can have hits) for them.

Yup, that’s what I told them, but in both conversations they mentioned that the packs they were talking about came from a magazine, and, in Spain, Pokemon magazines only have Fun Packs, never seen or heard about a magazine having Dollar Tree Packs. So there are three options:

1- They are lying.

2- They are both wrong.

3- They are right and they pulled hits from Fun Packs.
