J Balvin V, Katy Perry V & Post Malone V

I don’t think the target audience of these cards is a bunch of middle aged nerds collecting children’s cardboard.

However this nerd likes them :blush:

Are these supposed to be normal sized cards? I need to know if I need a new jar to put the Katy Perry card in

I’m not particularly a huge fan of these artists or the cards, regardless I am very happy to see the Pokemon Company continue to be innovative for the 25th anniversary!

It offers a lovely variety for collectors in the hobby and may encourage fans of the artists to dive into the hobby.

It’s definitely an interesting release with a strong identity, that’s for sure! :blush:

These reminded me that this is also a thing:

I wish I could un-see these cards.

Looks like there’s only one of each card

According to google, that Balvin guy is worth $20 million, which is actually much less than I’d have guessed (and certainly much less than both Malone and Perry.) Maybe one of you Charizard collectors out there can wrest it from him if you put enough zeros on the check?

highly doubt anyone could wrestle the card from his hands, and his net worth is actually pretty high out of most Latin American artists. Higher than Bad Bunny’s and Bad Bunny is certainly way more popular and spoken about than J Balvin.

Sounds like a job for Aoki

Will buy these cards if there are “custom/orica” versions.

Thankfully they won’t be sold anywhere, they are fugly

Sorry I had to be immature, but they all got their V cards, I lost mine a while back :grin:. In all seriousness, I have always liked these kind of cards although most find them odd. Definitely a neat piece, sadly I mainly only know 1 of the 3.

Aoki would ask if it was really a grail and then try to get him down to less, lol.

Aoki would make the card accessible…by making a limited edition NFT of it.

I’m glad to see TPCI thinking outside of the box.
Does that look like Katy Perry to you?

No, it really doesn’t.

It doesn’t look like her at all, but she has a lot less distinctive features like Post Malone does. No idea who Balvin is.
