How many people have solid information about the Rainbow Meiji stickers? I’ve recently purchased some (and wow are they mesmerizing). I don’t see very many listed on eBay and there doesn’t seem to be any info on there original release or a complete list. Anyways here’s some pics of Mew and Pika. (I snagged two Zards on there way in transit). ![image](https://www.elitefourum.com/uploads/default/original/3X/2/4/24fb5a1f185bb79f7de3fe15fdee5c2e37653430.jpeg) ![image](https://www.elitefourum.com/uploads/default/original/3X/3/d/3da55c2bcf776cb4315e9fc54877c218934976de.jpeg) ---

These were promo stickers along with the Meiji Pokemon Cocoa Milk. There are 2 sets of these stickers, Gold and Silver. ![image](https://www.elitefourum.com/uploads/default/original/3X/7/a/7af3dedf7ff32ea11325bcd95b1a9e23611fe442.jpeg) Even though the illustration is the same in front the stats are different behind: ![image](https://www.elitefourum.com/uploads/default/original/3X/f/7/f711acea27a8805a29e9579253e5fe6ba035ea98.jpeg) ![image](https://www.elitefourum.com/uploads/default/original/3X/8/2/821eba7a3cfd48012f79e940a93b0d42cd96dec6.jpeg) The back part of the sticker was basically a game of Rock-Scissors-Paper. So you don’t need to have a very strong sticker but just be lucky enough to win at Rock-Scissors-Paper and win the battle. Also there are numbers on the bottom right of the sticker behind which indicates the total number of stickers. Not sure of this info but apparently there were 40 Gold and 20 Silver ones. Mewtwo being the last of the gold cards. Cheers! ---

If i remember correctly there’s two variants of each sticker, one with a pokeball symbol in top left corner and one where the poke ball is replaced with a type symbol, so that adds a lot to collect ---

Picked up one of these since I collect vintage non tcg with a Bulbasaur focus and they are indeed mesmerizing! Included a video to help capture some of the nuances
