That’s definitely an awesome collection. Funny thing is, I was thinking if I’d ever get Karen’s Umbreon since it’s one of the few I’m missing from my VS set. Then boom it comes right in my face. :stuck_out_tongue:

I especially love all the classic items you have. Keep it up!

The variety of sealed products is a very cool part to add to a collection.

I completely agree. As useless as it seems, a sealed Base Set theme deck box is actually pretty cool :stuck_out_tongue:

New pics have just been uploaded to photobucket so check those out! Lots of Gold Star pics there now. Close ups of Rayquaza* have also been added.

HappyHaunter- Yeah, just enjoy that pic until you get the real deal lol Good luck with the rest of your VS collection!

Daelum- Thanks a lot! Yeah, having sealed stuff is, for the most part, useless. I just really like to have it because some rainy day I may decide to crack it all open :wink: Or maybe just sell it if I magically lose interest :slightly_smiling_face:

funmonkey54- Gotta love the mystery of sealed packs! You never know what they might contain!

Awesome cards Raichu, very impressive! I’ll definitely be looking forward to future updates.

You’re very lucky to have a sealed 1st ed Neo era box, hold onto that thing! I’ve been tracking prices for a few years now and the boxes from that era have seen considerable price increases that don’t seem to be slowing!

Thanks cbd! At the time I got the Neo Genesis box I thought I was crazy to spend so much on it, but nowadays it would have been quite a bargain. As you can see, I have started to stock up on packs from my favorite sets.

Forgot to post these earlier. Every Japanese set from Base-Neo 4

Ex Team Rocket Returns Gold Stars

Close up of Rayquaza* (sorry for the glare but this picture shows the artwork off pretty good.

PokemonTrader- I think the hardest one to get is the Rocket’s Tyranitar since it didn’t come in VS packs. Just found one recently so I’ll post pics of that when I get it. I get many of them from the same few sellers so none was much harder to find than any of the others. Some of the commons are a lot more difficult to find :confused:

skinst- Thanks! :blush:

Also, if anybody has suggestion for cards I should look for just let me know!
Here’s some more pics for now

Rockets Tyranitar is the hardest to find, but Karens Unbreon is the most expensive

Depends on who you ask Tolan… I know I’ve been piecing my set together for a while, but if you get a Water/Fire Pack cheap enough you have a 1/4 chance of getting Umbreon.

I dont mean pull rates. I mean that if I wanted to buy both of them, Umbreon would be easier to find (on eBay, and online stores, but it’d be more expensive

If you were to open packs you would have a 75% chance of getting a $15 dollar holo. Umbreon is like Base set Charizard in the sense that it’s not rarer than any other holo, it’s just a lot more popular. Opening packs until you pull it is just the hard way of getting it.

I think the VS Tyranitar half deck has been really scarce lately. Nobody seems to have it anymore :confused:
