Individual card will almost always be cheaper than buying a box for new sets. Not sure anyone will be able to predict the price of this card, nor have a good idea about whether the card will become more expensive after release (due to high demand, low supply) or less expensive (due to less demand, high supply).
Hard to know for sure as it depends on its playability. Pricewise I would expect it to follow the steps of something like ‘Test Tube’ Mewtwo given its rarity and appeal.
If it doesn’t see competitive play I would expect the Japanese version to go as low as $15 in the next three months. Now, if it does see competitive play it will take a significantly longer time.
Judging by the energy cost for the first attack it doesn’t really seem viable for play. Idk what the attacks are called or what they do though so I’m just basing it on requiring multiple different energies.
So I’m commissioning my girlfriend to do this piece in glass. Do you guys think there should be a text overlay like the card? I’m thinking it would look better as just the background.
