@woolsluk Yep any instance of Gyarados in the TCG! Got that guy on page 2 along with the lucky stadium what I thought at the time were the only hidden Gyarados cards :grin:

@azulryu I know right, I would have never looked for it there. So for future and current Gyarados collectors as of now there are 3 cards with hidden Gyarados, I wonder if we will find any more…

The Japanese one is the tough one to locate, thecardcollectoruk has some/one if the mood strikes!

I’m keeping an eye out now for more. I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s more than those three.

I’m contacting a few people about the Japanese Melee Scramble cards. I’ll let you know if I have any success in finding one.

@azulryu Cool yeah I would be surprised if there are any more but would be awesome to discover more! I move pretty fast found both lol :grin:

Sorry for the off topic post, but if you find someone that has the Pikachu for a reasonable price in Japanese let me know, or if you have to buy a set or something I’d be willing to buy the Pikachu from you.

@shizzlemetimbers You lucky sod! I only just got my hand on the English version. Haha. Wish me luck!

Definitely will do and keep you in mind. :blush:

I completely forgot Jimmy had a separate site outside of ebay.

I am hoping to get the Scramble card for Gyarados too as it has eluded me for too long. :dizzy_face:

What sucks is that the shipping option is over 15 USD. :slightly_frowning_face:

Thanks though! I needed the reminder!

@azulryu Yeah for a 1.50 card crazy shipping lol, I have a spare one coming from YJ lot we can trade if you want!

Some new pick ups most of which fill Japanese gaps in my collection, the most exciting being the XY9 Gyarados 6-pack of atrociousness:

Rumble/Scramble cards including the sneaky Gyarados on the Starmie card

Italian and Polish thanks to @abv150

Here is a few of my non-tcg Gyarados bros

In a brief moment of insanity I recently sold the PSA 10 that I had…So thanks to @pokemonmaster556 I was able to refill that chasm of regret lol

Also I thought I would share the first page of my Japanese and English Gyarados collection (Square cut Gary is a placeholder for grey stamp 1st ed)

Picked up an awesome menagerie of cards from @pokemonsyndicate but those to wait :wink:

@shizzlemetimbers This is so beautiful, my envy is incalculable.

Thank you my friend! Did you manage to pick up any XY9 Gyarados goodness?

The first few pages look awesome.

Haha be careful of that non-flat, non-tcg collection my blue brother. That can be a dangerous and slippery road!

Loving the collection as always though.

I’m saving myself for the english release! Trying to not collect two languages at the moment :stuck_out_tongue:

@missingno I have them in order apart from legendary collection as I thought the same artwork belongs together, Team Rocket etc. comes before, but maybe I should order them in strict release, not sure…

@azulryu Thanks mate :wink: I think any thoughts of non-tcg Gyarados collecting flew out the window as soon as I came across that large shining Gyarados lottery plush from Japan, a whole lot of dollars that one!

@zenard Come over to the dark side!

One little opinion,could be ignored but I believe your square cut belongs in the middle of the page. It Would look neat. It offsets the others since it stands out, shapewise.
