What makes you think it’s fake?

It looks legit to me at first glance.

@nidokingdom What do you think? :eyes:

Because this one seems legit and I never heard of two different versions.

@Metapod_museum knows the history of it, atleast for the Metapod card, so maybe he knows. It is also the person I first saw the Metapod version of this card with.

Cheers!

Hey guys ! Thanks for the tags !
I can confirm that it’s 100% legit, it’s from the second snack set, that has as more colourful and complex design. :grin:

It arrived. Seems to be too large for a slab, but will send it to PGS nevertheless.

Very proud of the card. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts::smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Does PSA grade these yet ? I’m waiting to send my Zard holo there :laughing: But I haven’t seen any graded yet unfortunately, wouldn’t risk sending without 100% it will comeback graded to avoid useless transatlantic shipping :laughing:

I think you can submit a resesrch request with psa before sending anything and they tell you whether they will grade it or not. However I have never done so, and dont know how it works. I also dont know if it works for europeans, since we would have to use middleman services. Anyone knows about this?? @nidokingdom i want to send the 5 bandai battle stickers and some other really obscure stuff

Thanks for the info guys ! I might have to submit that research request I can even give them all the research they need, pictures of the boxes, even the full list set and the link to my early Bandai sets article from my website, that about all they need probably no ?
They already grade Pokemon Club stickers, there’s no reason for them not to grade Snack ones (and all the other following sets) :smiley:
