One of my favorite things to collect are holo bleed cards where the holo pattern extends beyond the borders of the artwork and runs over the rest of the card’s front. Here are some examples (I just got the Poliwrath in the mail today and I’m quite happy about it):
I’ve seen multiple instances of this type of bleed in Neo Genesis and Discovery, as well as other sets that feature the cosmos style holo pattern like Gym Heroes and Team Rocket (see this Dark Slowbro for example). However, I’ve yet to come across any cards in Neo Revelation or Neo Destiny that have it.
Has anyone seen examples of this type of holo bleed in Revelation or Destiny? Note that I’m not referring to the well-documented Neo Revelation holo bleed that looks double-layered over the artwork, prominent in cards like Houndoom or Ho-Oh.
I have seen some Neo Destiny cards with bleeds on spots throughout the card (I have a Dark Feraligatr like that) or over the character art, but none as pronounced as your two!
I’ve also seen several in Japanese (such as Light Togetic from Destiny).
Yeah it seems a lot more common on Japanese cards than English ones. There’s definitely a spectrum where sometimes you can barely catch a bit of bleed under the right lighting, and other times it’s obvious like the two I posted. I’m also wondering whether it may be less common on certain types such as Dark or Steel because of the darker color of the card.
