I’m very jealous of the shinings :slight_smile:

I’ve been slowly grabbing PSA 9 1st edition shinings here and there over the last year or so if I can get a good deal on them but I still need several, including the Charizard.

Congrats!

Thank you and the Charizard is definitely the hardest of the Neo Destiny Shinings. I ended up buying it off a buddy here maybe 6-8 months ago I lost track. The Shining T-Tar is also quite pricey. Out of the cards posted I’ve had Dark Crobat, Dark Typhlosion and the shining T-Tar the longest. I got those back in my binder days like 3 years ago. I paid $40 for Crobat. $150 for Dark Typhlosion and $300 for the Shining T-Tar. The rest I bought like 8-9 months ago at going rates. So definitely paid good money for abunch of them

Another low pop Treecko added to the collection. I love this art work by Kusajima and ex Dragon is my favorite ex era set. I also love how Kusajima went on to illustrate this Sceptile from Primal Clash. It is very reminiscent to the Treecko from 12 years earlier. :grin:

Nishida’s true power on full display in the Light Arcanine and Light Dragonite. Simply two of my favorite cards in Pokemon.

Congratulations. Truly a spectacular trophy card and a PSA 10 at that. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers!

New acquisition and couldn’t have been more perfectly timed with the new shining Umbreon badge!
Will crack it and take it to next month event in France to have it signed and headsketched by Mr Arita himself :face_holding_back_tears:

Cosmos holo was an Australian exclusive release for this one. Could be obtained from the knock out collection boxes. Really low pop.

It’s cool how there’s a little holo bleed through the rings on umbreon. Great pickup!

LM does have a cool vibe to it; Lost in the old jungle with secret pokemon. Its pretty unique and i appreciate that. Not the flashiest set so its still below the radar too.

Based on cohesion of pokemon to set design it is probably one of the top 5 sets ever imo

Thank you! I agree, Saitou knocked it out of the park with this one.

Legend Maker is such an underrated set of the Ex era!

Another 3rd print fossil gengar. At last ive found a really solid 9 raw with a chance at a 10. I know some will disagree but ive got enough 9s and 10s to compare with and this has a shot and if not itll upgrade my cgc 8.5 either way. Feel free to message me your grade thoughts on this id love to hear them. :slight_smile:

Is the Gengar in the bottom middle a lighter purple than the rest?

Ive taken it out the penny sleeve and top loader so that may be why however ive discussed this with a few others there is definitely some colour variation within the 3rd print set itself. Heres something i have on my phone atm…

Had a massive Japan order come in today. Really happy with the mint black & white pick ups particularly with the battle boost zekrom. Was one of my top chase cards from that era to get and happy to finally have one of my “grails” acquired after searching for a mint one for a year and a half!
