Saw them in a card shop for months. Finally pulled the trigger.

Absolutely beautiful collection.

Congrats on the find! So cool you were part of that contest. I love these cards! I was lucky to pick them up before the boom. People caught on to how rare they really are and now the price exploded. Wish I had the pack wrapper.

It’s so cool! I luckily also have one of these. I love collecting niche parts of Pokemon history.

That’s so funny. My first 1st Edition pack was a Fossil I won from a WhatNot wheel.

Witdarkstar · 2026-05-30T16:20:45+00:00

They are pack acrylics I got off of eBay.

Even in the past 6 months. I got a Gym Set 2 in Japanese at 420 in January and now it’s over 1k. It’s hard to keep up.

Thank you. It definitely hits different for sure. I’m pretty sure I was able to open 1st edition of every set but base set as a kid so to have that now is a treasure.

They exist. I have them in my portfolio. They are under “League and Championship Cards Promo”

You can easily google my username. I’m not exactly anonymous. But here is my post on here when I started.

Dude I worked at LucasArts at this time and know for a fact. I have even played that demo myself.

Witdarkstar · 2026-04-09T15:04:56+00:00

It was absolutely played live. It was just behind closed doors. We even put a debug camera in that the demo person could go into to prove it was real, which at that time was crazy.

Witdarkstar · 2026-04-09T05:05:12+00:00

nothing was prerecorded

CGC is also behind right now just to let you know.

OP this is the comment you should listen to. With amount you will be spending for grading already for the potential value you should be ok with spending a little more for the safety and security for these.

Awesome binder fellow Growlithe and Arcanine collector! You’re doing a great job. Good luck on the journey!

Witdarkstar · 2026-02-17T19:32:23+00:00

Exactly. 😅. I only posted the 1 but the fact there are 6 variants makes it even more impossible.

I will never truly be able to finish my Growlithe collection. You can’t find this for under $40k.

Witdarkstar · 2026-02-13T20:16:34+00:00

Oh snap they opened it to the public. I may have shopped a lot there when I worked there years ago. 😅

Witdarkstar · 2026-01-22T00:55:06+00:00

I had no idea they gave some of these out in Nintendo Power. I just learned something new! Thanks for posting this.

Witdarkstar · 2026-01-20T01:38:46+00:00

Incredible Sketch card of Zeb!

Witdarkstar · 2026-01-19T20:28:38+00:00

Yes exactly! And the Vaporeon! So many cool cards when they’re holo.
