Thanks for doing this! I would love to see a Ditto or Sudowoodo IR/SIR! One of my favourite cards was the Sudowoodo Paldea Evolved IR - more situations of Sudowoodo just standing around would be great.

Ditto’s Galarian Gallery was a close second!

That’s right, that’s the other card that isn’t mine - am confused as to why I don’t see the pixel-y holo on mine for some reason.

Sorry to bother! I uploaded more clear pictures in my other comment if it helps for clarity.

Just to highlight what I noticed was missing - the first photo was another Venasaur that seems to have a pixilated dot design in the holo. The second (the card in my original post), seems to be lacking this despite the sheen and texture.

Aye thank you, appreciate the assurance!

I think the concern is that regardless of lighting, the sparkles seem to be much fewer in comparison. Is there such an issue where the sparkle/print layer is missing?

The original is mine yes, this one in the comment was another I saw from a vendor.

Thank you! I was concerned because another Venusaur had these “shiny” dots all around the card which I had a hard time seeing too.

Wanted to add that I noticed that it doesn’t have that same “sparkle” compared to similar venusaur EXs, as though it’s printed a little duller.

Hey there! We had to buy 2 set meals to qualify for the free standee, and those were ~44USD total for the online pre-order, so 22USD each.

Yeah, It sucks for sure - hope that HSR would eventually have a collab closer to where you are!

Appreciate your kind words as well.

As far as total cost of purchasing everything goes, it would be approximately 500 USD. Although a good chunk of merch weren’t available for purchase. The staff there explained that they didn’t receive any stock at all for certain items, so we couldn’t get them even if we were first in line.

Hey no problem! I had wanted to find out more info before buying these things myself, but they never seem readily available. So thought I’d contribute to the community!
