This time around I sent a lot of Japanese cards I had been collecting. I’m just going to show some of the highlights from this round so I hope you all enjoy!
I sent two Shining Mew cards in and they both recieved a mint 9. One was also designated (OC) for off center.
I sent several Web cards but the best were these two. Gem Mint 10 Nidoking and Mint 9 Dark Charizard.
Next I’ll go through the Trainer’s Magazine promos.
The set starts in Volume 14 with the first 3 eeveelutions. Flareon got a Gem Mint 10 while Jolteon and Vaporeon got a Mint 9.
The next issue featured Slowpoke, Slowbro, and Slowking. I sent in two sets and an additional Slowbro. Two sets came back Gem Mint 10 and one of the Slowbros came back Mint 9.
Volume 16 included the evolved forms of the Gen 2 starters. All three got a Gem Mint 10 and is currently the only Gem 10 set.
I don’t have Volume 17 but it had Charmeleon, Ivysaur, and Wartortle. Help me get these!
These are some of my favorite cards out there! I am so happy these all got Gem Mint 10 grades!!! Volume 18 Moltres, Articuno, and Zapdos.
I still need Volume 19 cards! Dratini, Dragonair, and Dragonite. Help me get these!
Also need Volume 20 Larvitar, Pupitar, and Tyranitar ex. Help me get these!
Volume 21 is the best and probably hardest to find of the T-Promos. Imakuni? drew the strange illustrations for us. So, enjoy?
Unknown to many, the Prerelease Aerodactyl has two different versions. The less common version has a gold lettered “Prerelease” stamp and also has the “Galaxy” holofoil pattern.
This copy got a Mint 9 but someday I’d like to get a Gem mint copy of this card.
I saved the best for last! Vaporeon* Play Promo Gem Mint 10, Grand Party Trainer Gem Mint 10, and Lucky Stadium (English) Gem Mint 10.
I do hope you all have enjoyed! I’ll get some of my recent purchases up here soon so look out for those!
