Hi everyone, I got the Red logo Fossil box added to my sealed box collection today. This is a rare box that I have been looking for a long time, and finally an opportunity opened up. I do not know much of the story behind the box, except that it was released i Australia, and it has copyright 1999-2000 on the card. It would be interesting to hear if anyone has something interesting to tell about this box? ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200120/998e1289f0fc1a98c7f563c0fed7bb6c.jpg) ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200120/95e829124a410651dc7f695c12d74c84.jpg) ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200120/23abebd4528b56e9b1cab02fd6f1b8de.jpg) ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200120/1f640510faee6cdef9d4f2e226bed1bf.jpg) ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200120/19238e39de75d6adffc56c38682dbbaf.jpg) ---

The red logo was to differentiate between counterfeits at the time. A good switcheroo. ---

Do all the cards have a different copyright date? Wondering if the energy cards do. ---

I wasn’t paying attention when I saw this that there were none in the set. Always looking out for variants. ---

I have a theory that this was going to be a ploy to match the Australian releases up with the Asian product that also had a red logo. The Chinese base set has a similar logo, as do non-tcg Thai products. Maybe they were going to have a Chinese fossil set but changed their minds last minute? ---

The earliest fakes I see on a regular basis are skyridge - early ex sets. I saw a fake legendary collection bulbasaur once but otherwise idk why they were so worried enough to change the logo. ---

Were these red logo boxes only printed unlimited? ---

Wow that’s awesome. Only ever seen a couple of these online. I think TCA or GMP has one and said they wouldn’t let it go for less than 10k or that they bought it for that. ---

The copyright date only changed on the non-holos. Except for Zapdos holo from the Aussie theme deck! :] ---

Tough to find, brings good money but doesn’t seem to have a big demand. Pretty cool variant to collect for the ultimate WOTC fans. That sealed box is sick, congrats.
