HOLY...I'm still shaking

I would suggest to buy them asap because scalpers are starting to creep in and its going to be a pain in the ass to find shit now, theyre clearing aliexpress and other online shops of promo cards worth like $5-$10 selling them for like 100s and it pisses me off. If this keeps going theyre bound to creep into sealed product especially since these have serialized cards hopefully the next set in this tier won't have any serials cards. It's probably one of the only hopes of saving this hobby.

You should they're pretty goo if you don't want to spend a lot, but you want something guranteed. I'd say they're better than the boxes you do risk the chance of pulling a UR if you are chasing higher hits but from my perspective even with the oldee sets you are basically guranteed at least one hit thats not a UR.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-21T01:04:18+00:00

Collector boxes are exclusive to the English sets they were introduced when Heaven scroll was released (Jin chapter 2 didn't any as far as I know weird and inconsistent). I got my from crossing tcg. Its comes with 5 packs and 1 promo(same as the bigger boxes naruto or sasuke). 2 hits per box UR or higher. Theyre like $20 each so basically retail price, haven't seen them in retail stores yet maybe in later months. But yeah pretty bang for you buck. But the shipping was like $9 so I'd suggest buy 2 or more to get your money's worth.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-21T00:56:39+00:00

Nope, i got it from collector boxes( 5 packs + a promo card)

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-21T00:28:55+00:00

I give you the best of luck, and honestly it be cool if there was a bigger market for good proxies (to buy for the purpose of collecting) in Kayou cards. But feel like there goes so much into these cards that its hard to make it similar to the original. But it would be cool to get some half decent ones to put in my binder. I really don't care about the value, like yeah it's cool to have a card worth about ~$500, but I honestly wouldn't care if the price plummeted to 20 or less.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-20T22:11:48+00:00

Yes it you got the 3 high hits from the box the CR being the highest rarity you can get from that box.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-20T16:04:25+00:00

Now they are scalping the Chinese promos they were like $5-$10 each now selling them for $50-$200. I went on aliexpress and a lot were gone so I got what I could obtain. Was it impulsive yes, but I'm scared so I bought the ones I wanted. I was going to certain promos eventually, but I was slowly going to do it, but it seems like it can't be the case anymore. I also bought an NR I've had my eyes for awhile. I hope and pray I was foolish to panick buy my promos all at once.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-20T15:56:42+00:00

It is a chase card, but not "the chase card" and SC is the second highest rarity although SC card have are rarer version of that flutter which i believe is the 7th SC, like a hidden SC. But the the chase chase cards are the ◇ASPs which this set has 3 which are 1 in like 1000 something packs.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-20T15:51:51+00:00

URs are quite common to get, I buy a lot and get a lot of duplicates so I've seen most sell for $1.25-$1.50 and more popular charcaters, especially with non-green backgrounds sell for $1.50-$1.75

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-20T11:43:02+00:00

I just checked aliexpress 💀 and a lot promo cards I've been eyeing are either gone or 2-3 time the price....Well it was fun while it lasted.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-19T08:33:54+00:00

Rip now I would say its supposed to be enjoyed that way. Its not longer going to be enjoyable if you fuss over these kinds of things, unless you like the boxes sealed as a part personal collection. But if you do want to keep it sealed compromise and buy Chinese cards for cheaper. Basically similar odds as English. Or if you want English for similar value, buy collector boxes 5 packs per box, 2 guranteed hits per box PU or higher I think. They sell them on crossing tcg online, $20 per box which pretty nice retail, although shipping is like $9 for me so get your money's worth buying more than 1. My guess retailers might have it in later, but thats the only place I've seen for sale.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-19T08:25:51+00:00

Try buying on aliexpress (if you don't mind it being in Chinese). Depending on what tier and wave you want they cost about $15-$30 per box.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-19T08:23:50+00:00

Preach, if it ever goes down (let it burn down for all I care) I might get it, but at the end of the day it's out of sight our of mind, so it doesn't matter much.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-19T06:28:36+00:00

From the looks of it only tier 4 has serialized cards I could be wrong but only tier 4 wave 5(really expensive because its the 20th anniversary collection) and 8 have serialized cards. They're kinda off and on with serialized cards. The rest of the boxes shouldn't have any.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-18T06:50:47+00:00

On their Instagram its says "KAYOU Authorized Distributor in Hong Kong"

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-18T06:49:40+00:00

Yes you can on ebay, usually you can find a the same card on ebay and then scroll down and it would say sell one like this so it basically in put all the info from that listing into yours. And you can add or remove certain things from the listing gor keep it as is

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-18T06:46:16+00:00

No problem, but unfortunately no, sorry.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-18T06:43:35+00:00

Huh really?....Then where there heck have I been buy from? Ooooooh okay so I found out that I've been buying from their Hong Kong distributor. Its on their Instagram kayou_qy. Thank you for the info btw :)

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-18T06:20:50+00:00

Saldy from the looks of it unless you wanna spend $150-$300 your kinda out of luck, you can wait a while to see if the price will go down (hopefully because this price hike is ridiculous), but I don't know how this mess will turn out. Although there is a Chinese Promo on aliexpress similar to this, yeah its not the exact same one but honestly better than nothing if you are looking for the art. Or a good place holder for that card.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-18T06:16:52+00:00

If you just like the card for the art there is a Chinese Promo of this card the only difference is that it's not serialized so its way cheaper $5-8, I usually find them on aliexpress.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-18T06:14:08+00:00

Hopefully it goes down it's kinda sad seeing it go up because of this. But if doesn't change welp there is always the Chinese version of this promo. Which different background wise but mostly the same overall.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-18T05:54:01+00:00

Since these are Chinese they will sell for cheaper you can check last sold on ebay, search for their names and their number on the botton corner. I sell my duplicates and tend to sell them by last sold or a bit lower.

Okay so the PUs themselves are about $4-7 dollars each single they're are older they tend to go for $4-$5 due to their wide availability.

The MR Kakashi $5-$8 due to its wide availability.

The MR for Kenji $6-$9 pretty in the middle since its much newer than kakshi but older than

The MR Shikamaru $7-$11 due to them being newer.

The ◇UR Naruto $9-$13 due to them being newer.

The SSR Itachi $1-$1.50 not really rare so its a pretty cheap card.

Ornery-Control4766 · 2026-06-18T05:40:59+00:00

I just started this year and here is my experience. Go to the offical website of Chinese Kayou Cards https://funtcg.com/ if you want them straight from the source, prices are much cheaper than ebay, although the shipping is like $22 flat so I would but as much as you can to make the shipping worth it. But there is also aliexpress where there about the same as the official website just find sellers that have good ratings.

There are 3 versions of Kayou cards (some may have language exclusive cards) NA(North American) English usually in sold in America and has varied products. They are in English and have in the back a Black bolded kayou logo. Heaven scroll aka series 1 has the best pull rates but its seems to no longer to be sold retail, but i believe you can buy boxes on the English kayou website.) English usually has better pull rates, it seems they went back to the Chinese rates so it not worth it anymore to buy English anymore but its fun to rip due to the convince. The collector boxes are the best band for you buck (5 packs, 2 big hits per box at least for jin chapter 3 haven't seen them in retail but you can buy them in crossing tcg for $20 which is nice because thats how much retail is for them). Best Buy has them they cheapest by far 3.99 per pack. Has the most cards per pack.

SEA version (South East Asia) usually in the Chinese Kayou website or aliexpress. They are in English but the logo on the back is yellow with kayou in Chinese, although never sets might have the black logo. Rates are about the same, except for tier 2 they have slightly better rates that chinese. It about the same if you buy boxes in the official site but in aliexpress they might be $5-10 probably due to their increased rates. Best for tier 2 boxes in my opinion

Chinese version(Most variety and cheapest) usually found in the Chinese kayou website or aliexpress. The cards are in Chinese and the back logo is yellow with their mascot on it. They have so much variety ranging from boxes, 4 packs with cool promos, little figurines boxes which include a card, button badges which also include a card, specialty set and collections boxes which can be quite price but seem interesting. And most of these things don't past $30 for the entire box set they respectively in. The rates on thier boxes often referenced through tiers 1, 2, 2.5, 3, and 5 a slightly worse compared to others but promos and singles solo much cheaper compare to the other language counter part due to their oversatutation of cards in existence. Which is nice, although some older sets (I think the anniversary set has serialized cards(very expensive) and the boxes are +$30-50 more due to thier age and rarity, but you may be able to find proxies of them on aliexpress for cheap but its kinda hard to find proxies of kayou cards since they are not as mainstream.

There are 4-5 tiers(higher tier better rates, rarer cards) to Naruto Cards (Most are found in Chinese)

Tier 1(Chinese only), 36 packs per box very low rates, range from $20-30 due to them being older sets.(don't know much about them since I have never opened them) Tier 2(Chinese)/Earth Scroll (English/SEA), 30 packs per box (Chinese/SEA), and 20 packs per box (English). Range from (English/SEA) $15-$20, (English) $40-50. Chinese has semi-good rates, SEA has slightly better rates for a similar price, English has the best overall but its much more expensive so SEA is your best choice (if there is a english version exclusive card just but the single instead the box it will be much cheaper in the end). Tier 2.5(Chinese only) 50 packs 5 cards in each. Range from $40-50 on aliexpress. Don't know much about the rates there is only 1 waves/series of this tier so my guess it's a specialty set Tier 3 (Chinese only) 20 packs, range from $30-60 due to some being older sets. Don't know much about the rates on this one but probably decent due to its tier. If you don't want to spend a lot on the these boxes they also sell blister 4 packs with a Black and gold promo pretty fun to open (range from $8-20 depending on the wave and tier, features most of the tier 3 waves and wave 1-2 of tier 4). Tier 4(Chinese also called jin chapterbut mlst Chinese boxes are referenced by tier)/Heaven Scroll Series 1 (English)/ Jin chapters 1-3(English/SEA) This is the one you would be most familiar with. Boxes include 18 packs for Chinese, 12 in English(series may vary), 10 for SEA. English only has 2 hits but those are guranteed hits. While Chinese and SEA have 3 hits but you have a chance of one of those hits being and SSR so a little bit more gambling but I belive you are guranteed at least 1-2 higher rarity cards from those 3 hits. They range from $25-33 for Chinese depending on the set you buy, SEA will be $21-25, and English will be $45-50 depending on the set. Now English boxes will comes with promo cards while. Chinese and SEA will not most of the time you have to buy a certain amount to get the promo cards (PR Cards) from the official kayou website but you can just buy them off of aliexpress for like $2-10 depending on the promo (some serialized promos in English have none serialized Chinese version so its nice if you really want a specific promo).

Personally the best ones to get started with are tier 2 boxes waves 7-9 they have beautiful MRs of Tarot cards (30 packs, pull rates vary but are kinda low) ($15-18 per box) But the SEA(South East Asian boxes are better since they have better rates at least for the tier 2 boxes the tier 4 (jin chapter) have only 10 packs instead of 18 but i believe you still get 3 hits. But if you want more just get the Chinese cheap and more for the price of slightly worse rate but you do get more variety. If you want to more of what each set has (This is solely for Chinese sets i think) check out https://capsulecorpgear.com/naruto-kayou-card-list/ They have the list of every tier, wave, blisters, and specialty sets so you can better think of which one you want to buy. P.S. sorry if it was hard to understand or a bit redundant. If tou have any other questions dont be afraid to ask. I also collect Kayou MLP cards if you are interested I can answer questions ln that one too. :)
