Kraken's Eeveelutions Binder Update

[ragingkraken]

Alright. Time for the update. Went through a bit of a slump where I didn’t really pay too much attention to current releases, so I actually need to catch up on the latest stuff I think. But oh well. It’s time for more mediocre pictures, but at least it’s in natural light this time. Been holding on to these for a while without putting them in the binder, which means this is going to be a pain. Because I’m pretty sure I have to shift some cards.

First up, the Eevees. Didn’t realize just how much they milked a single artwork until I lined these up. Also reminded me I have to get the other 2 languages for that Together Eevee promo. I’d get more of those championship Eevees, but the remaining ones I haven’t been able to find at decent prices yet.

Up next, Jolteon. Still taking my time trying to finish up Eevee Heroes, one Eeveelution at a time, because my wallet cries every time I pick an Eeveelution to finish up…

Now just a random mix of these guys. Wasn’t enough cards to give them their own photos. So figured I’d just bundle these in here. Turns out those reverse holo pokeballs/master balls are a pain to photograph.

Just some cameo cards. The Penny with the Umbreon cameo really reminds me of the Skyridge Oracle card, so I really dig it.

Now the tournament leafeon to go along with the staff card I had. Funny how both this and the staff version ended up coming from Australia.

Now some Chinese prize/promo cards? Probably the most common/regular looking stamp I’ve ever seen, but I guess that technically makes it unique form other stamped cards?

Now finally, some more slabs to crack. Originally I had paid my middle man for these, but he forgot to send them over with the rest of the order. So, since we agreed to send them over next time I make another order, and it would be months before that happened, apparently he sent them to PSA to get graded and they came back 10s. I’m sure I’d be ecstatic about it if I did slabs, but I much prefer having it in a binder, so I’ll get around to cracking these eventually.

Nice additions! Had to check again what stamp you were talking about with the chinese espeon and sylveon, they could have added at least some coloured borders or anything with the graded cards, have you thought about it if you sold the slabs and bought raw copies again, i’m guessing with japanese modern the extra gained wouldn’t be huge but i’m guessing there would be something?

[ragingkraken]

Haha. When I went to take the pictures I had a tough time remembering if there was anything special about those cards since the stamp isn’t very stamp-like.

As for the slabs, it hasn’t crossed my mind. Because my post office does this thing where even in cards in top loaders, bubble wrap, and bubble envelopes end up getting bend/destroyed. Took enough L’s shipping cards out that I just don’t bother selling/trading anymore. Could do FedEx/ups I guess, but at the end of the day, I’ve had enough bad experiences shipping stuff out that I just don’t want to deal with that possibility anymore.

@KabutopsMaster therws some nice international eevee cards here

[joponnes]

Understandable, could guess the profit of selling here compared to the risks is questionable

[KabutopsMaster]

i know @ragingkraken quite well now haha, him and i have been talking for months

[ragingkraken]

We’re on a mission to convince everyone to collect all languages for Eevees.

[Sleepingfatboi]

I’m the one that convinced him to to collect all language kabutops.

[ragingkraken]

Alright. Time to update. Been holding out on these cards for a while before adding them to the binders. But now that I’ve split the collection into 1 per Eeveelution and 1 for the cameos, it’s become less of a burden to shuffle cards when I get unexpected languages. Did suck splitting up sets like the T series promos and the Sylveon collection cards but oh well. Anyway, time for some pictures by someone who is incapable of taking good photos. At least there’s natural light this time.

This update is mainly just non-Japanese/English cards. There’s a couple in there, but nothing noteworthy about them this time.

No thoughts just lol that Italian evolving skies’s attack is fuggi fuggi (escape escape)

[ragingkraken]

Alright. Time for another update. Another time where I remembered to take the pictures in natural light.

Up first, a bunch of European cards thanks to @eeveeteam. Keeps me constantly shuffling my binders around. Feels like I should just leave spaces for every language and variation ever printed honestly. Will probably end up that way eventually.

And a Chinese Umbreon prize card. Eeveeteam really knows I’ll never say no to a rare card, especially Umbreon. This will go well with the Espeon and Sylveon I got some months back. Adding this to the pile of slabs I have to crack for my binder when I’m not too lazy to do so.

Dutch Eevees. Nothing more. Nothing less. Figured I should get all languages at the very least of the first print of each one. And Dutch is interesting because of how little sets were actually printed in that language.

Now a mix of Japanese, Chinese, and Korean cards that I came across. Stupid Start Deck 100 is so hard to come across.

Ah yes, Portuguese. The language that makes my head hurt. As someone who speaks Spanish, it sounds so close, but off just enough so that I can’t really understand it. Never know what to think about it. Anyway, picked some Portuguese cards up just because.

And finally, an unlimited gold star. Technically my second gold star if you don’t count the Championship deck Jolteon I picked up too. Thanks @KabutopsMaster for the heads up on it.

[KabutopsMaster]

Happy to have helped mate

Congratulations

[KabutopsMaster]

We need an update @ragingkraken

[ragingkraken]

I’ll see if I can get an update in for the weekend. Been putting off shifting cards in the binders for too long.

[DarthEevee]

It’s a headache when doing, but the done feels great
