What would be your top 5 (or any number I suppose) collection? Graded or not, just the card itself.
Here’s mine, I only own the Ancient Mew early correction myself, the rest pretty much almost impossible for me to get lol although the Pikachu is almost doable.
What level of pie-in-the-sky are we talking? If it’s big Euromillions win then Illustrator, 97 No. 3 Pika, Snap Articuno, 2001 Tropical Wind, TMB Lucky Stadium or half art No. 1 Pika. No, I don’t have an imagination.
More attainable would be something like: Televi-Kun Pichu Illustration Contest, 1st place Victory Proof, Pikachu festa 2016 (the one with the Arita signature), Japanese Rayquaza gold star, Japanese crystal Charizard. Honestly, this list was harder to fill. There’s a lot of stuff I want, but not so much that I’d feel comfortable putting it in a top 5 list. I excluded anything I already own.
Master scroll - How can anyone pass up that holo
Call of Legends Lugia - lugia has so many cool cards its hard to narrow down. Crystal lugia is another contender here
umbrella pikachu you posted - such a unique art for a fan favorite.
Snap Koffing - one of my favorite pokemon and the fact it has a snap card is pretty insane.
hidden fates Charizard GX shiny - why not?
My passion is wotc errors and 3rd print fossil. Leaving aside errors for now I’m missing one rare so articuno. But if we include grades I sooo want a psa 10 3rd print gengar.
University Magikarp (which I could have bought for 70,000 yen a few years ago but was talked out of it by a well-known member of these forums because he told me it was “overpriced”)
Yeah I forgot about Master Scroll, that would be my number 6 from my top 5. It’s a pretty card for sure. Might have the most holo out of any card I think.
