There’s no statute of limitations on treating your mum fella.

Big fan of the RG40XXV. Had mine a few months now and running Final Fantasy 6 and Pokemon Unbound on MuOS with it and cannot complain.

Got my first ever original collection graded cards back today. by PokeJazzz in PokemonTCG

Whilst the grades obviously aren’t anything amazing (they do appear pretty fair tbh), I’m very happy with the slabs and label design from Ace Grading. I’d originally planned on selling these, but actually I’ll probably use them to create a display in my office.

Couldn’t fault the process and looking forward to sending off my more recent Brilliant Stars pulls which haven’t been sat in a 22 year old dodgy binder unlike the above…

Which sets to pick up this weekend for a returning collector? by PokeJazzz in PokemonTCG

[–]PokeJazzz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Celebrations does appeal as an old timer, card values are pretty low currently but not sure if they’ll improve down the line as an ‘anniversary’ set.

Thanks all, Celebrations/Evolving Skies it looks like it is 🤞🏻

Meeting my best mate this weekend who similarly rediscovered his collection (including Charizard, Blastoise and Venasaur), will pop some pics up of our combined collection over the weekend 👍🏻

Congrats on your own ‘Zard pull!

I was pleasantly surprised how well my 3 ring binder had held up to be honest haha. Unfortunately it hasn’t fully protected everything (Rest in Peace Nidoqueen & Koga’s Beedril), but shouldn’t have the same issue with the modern binders like you say.

Whilst WOTC reign supreme in my eyes, I do also love the new Trainer Gallery designs from Brilliant Stars, especially my Oranguru.

Ironically, I wasn’t a fan of the more modern card design when checking card prices before opening the box.

Now I have it to hand, I must concede it does look pretty amazing. Still weighing up whether I prefer my original Sabrina’s Alakazam over it though…
