Thanks, man. Your collection is pretty great as well! That binder of 1st edition WOTC holos is so nice. I’ve got some big (for me) stuff coming in this weekend, so stay tuned for that!

Thanks for taking notice. Now that I finished my binder collections I’m working on graded copies. But that’s pricey and takes longer for updates. But I’ve been picking up some stunning cards!
I book marked your thread so I’ll definitely be keeping track of your updates!

Friday update:
The next three pics are an accumulation of purchases I’ve made over the past 6 months or so. Back in 2018, I left the hobby to focus on school, grades, and other life goals. Well, like many others, COVID re-sparked my interest in collecting, and now I’m just as addicted as before.
The legendary birds are some of my favorite Pokemon in general, so I spent a lot of time researching artworks and hunting, in my opinion, the best cards. The next pic is dedicated to Moltres (my favorite bird, and 2nd favorite Pokemon behind Ho-Oh):
After grabbing those cards, I decided to focus on Zapdos. This is definitely my favorite artwork by far - the black background mixed with all the yellow is awesome and I’m honestly amazed that this is considered a “mid-tier” base set holo:
And finally,
I haven’t really gotten around to Articuno yet - plus my wallet needs some time to recover - so here’s various binder cards!
I’m definitely gonna keep working on collecting these in the future, some big goals are the Red/Green Gift Set cards, a No-Rarity Zapdos, and the EX cards from the FireRed/Leafgreen set. Thanks everyone for the support!

“No Rarity” Zapdos - Base Set
Picked this one up last week. Great to finally own this really unique card - they don’t pop up very often nowadays. Not in the best shape - but that’s alright. I’ll never get tired of the classic Sugimori art.

Awesome stuff. Do you know about the web series Moltres? It uses the artwork from the black star promo but it’s holographic. Probably my favourite Moltres card.
I haven’t heard of that one! But I looked it up and I really like that design, especially with the e-series border! I’ll definitely add it to the list.

Been working on putting together some WOTC binder sets lately. This one took a surprisingly long time, but it was well worth the effort. Love these “No Symbol” holos - definitely one of my favorite errors, and surprisingly affordable as well. I think this is the first “set” that I’ve ever actually completed, and I’ve got to say that it’s very satisfying to see the cards in a binder like this.
I am decently close to completing the entire Jungle and Fossil 1st edition sets as well, so stay tuned for that in the coming months!
Thanks so much for viewing,

Congrats on the pickups! Excited to see you finish those two sets but I’m absolutely loving the Legendary bird cards side by side! Is that in a separate binder by itself?
Yeah, they’re in a seperate binder. I’m still trying to figure out how to organize them so that’s a work in progress but I’m glad you like them!

This is why binder master race is real. Nothing beats a full binder page of all the holos from a set!

The no rarities are far too underrated. Love it.
Love the E-Series artworks specially Skyridge. Bet that Glurak cost alot to being shadowless.
