Hi all!

Besides my other collecting goals, of which many are on-hold as I am long term abroad, waiting for PSA returns, and so on, I also decided to share my on-going goal of collecting every stamped Korean Promo card.

I believe the total to be around 220?, and so far I managed to collect over 80 90 100 of them. Besdies stamped ones, I also own about 80 unique Korean non-stamped promos.

I will share some of my favourite new pickups in this thread!

I’ll start with this 2013 Winter Wonderland Genesect. I was lucky enough to find it sealed in the original plastic sleeve.

This Genesect was given to participants of the event in 2013. The url for the event still works!!

The premise of the event was to collect stamps by completing various missions. The missions revolved around Saving Pokémon from an evil Red Genesect!

Can you find the only Pokémon known to be able to rival the Red Genesect? It is said to be hidden somewhere in this city.

New Promos came today! It always breaks my heart to break these free from the celophane but I hate not having my card either graded or in a normal sized album slot (I can’t bother getting a binder for celophaned cards).


반디나, Honey, could be obtained as a purchase bonus in early 2021 when purchasing both the Battle Styles boxes at once (the set was split into 일격마스터, Single Strike Master」 and 연격마스터, Rapid Strike Master in Korea)

Sandaconda and Celebi were both awarded when purchasing two boxes of the Chilling Reign set (split as 백은의 랜스, Silver Lance and 칠흑의 가이스트, Jet-Black Spirit) in Korean

That Celebi is so good, one of my fav full arts

Hi all!

Another day, another post to share a piece from my collection (with a little history of the distribution to then link to Korean Promo Card Masterlist)

How was this obtained?

The cards below are all purchase bonuses from 2020 and are stamped with the Mini League stamp. The stamp is not associated with actual League or Tournaments.

Offer 1
Obtain one card for purchases of more than 15,000 KRW (USD 10.80).
Dates: Tuesday, June 9, 2020 - Sunday, June 21, 2020.

Marnie and Team Yell Grunt

Offer 2
Obtain one card for purchases of more than 15,000 KRW (USD 10.80).
Dates: Monday, June 22, 2020 - Sunday, July 5, 2020

Guzma & Halla, Cynthia & Caitlin, Mallow & Lana

Offer 3
Pack of 9 energy cards when making a purchase of 30,000 KRW
Dates: Tuesday, June 9, 2020 - Sunday, July 5, 2020

As such, one had to make purchases of at least 105,000 KRW (USD 73,67) to obtain all the promos. For reference, the price of a Korean booster box (30 packs with 5 cards each) are around USD 21 at retail.

Some recent pickups!

  • This is a fairly good 8.5. The card is extremely clean with two massive print lines. I consider this to be the best kind of 8.5 :smiley:

  • This Leafeon I did not think I would obtain this fast, as it’s one of the rarest Korean promos, especially among stamped ones. You can read more about the event in my other post here.

  • League Zone Hyperball
  • Korean League Quaxly
  • Nene Chicken Tepig. The early BW starter promos (there are three different promo events in total) are extremely fascinating to me. Will have to post a little write up about them soon.
