Japanese boosters normally only have one package art per set.

Best place to buy Japanese booster packs? And collectors question

I'm collecting Japanese booster packs, and therefore am collecting 1 of each different artwork that appears on them. Does anyone know the best/cheapest place to buy Japanese packs? And also, I know our collection thread has a listing of all the artwork on English sets, but does anyone know where I can find a listing of all the Japanese artwork? Thanks!

Whoops didn't know it was rerouted to here, thanks!! Any chance anyone knows where I can find a complete list of all the jap booster artwork? Like I said I know we have a collectors thread that has the English ones listed but idk where the jap ones are. And since there's only 1 artwork per set, it's more so that I know how many sets there are to collect from. Like there's a "black collection" and "white collection, making 2 seperate sets, but English has 1 set for both. Just need it to organize, thanks guys!

Yes, In Japan those are 2 separate subsets, so they each have their unique wrapper.

Power Trio Tin

300px-CharizardEXEXPowerTrioTin.png


Hi guys!
Now that the power trio tins are about to come up. I was wondering if anyone has an idea of which Charizard EX would this tin contain? Is it the regular stoke charizard ex? or the one with combustion blast?
Just got really curious since im building a charizard ex ( combustion blast ) based deck and i wanna know if id hold off buying individual cards and just wait for the tin if thats the case.

Thanks guys :) :p

Sadly, up to this day, we know nothing on which Charizard is in the tin. :/ Chances are it's the Stoke one, but we're not sure yet.

Ok which is the set with the most recent Charizard? It will most likely be that sets Charizard. They usually put in the Best Charizard card in the tin. I have a really cool Charizard myself. It has 140 HP and his attack actually his best attack is Malevolent Fire. It was one of the Champion cards. Can't remember which champion but I know it was not Cynthia though. Anyhow it will most likely be the latest Charizard.:)

Difference between RH and H in Crystal Guardians

I was looking at pictures of them, and from what it looks like, the holo design is the same on both, only RH has the set stamp/gold rim/gold name/probably gold star. So is it a much better idea to get the RH? Im collecting all sets and just starting this one, so I dont know much about it.

Is everything holo except the box where the Pokemon is? If so then it is a reverse holo. If the Pokemon box is holo it is a regular holo. If it is anything other than those 2 ways of holo then the cards are fake unless they have a new way they are holoing the cards in their new format if they have a new format to holo the cards.:)

I believe the cards you are referring to are the RH Rares. They have a gold border and a gold name, as well as having the set name stamped onto the art of the cards.

Can someone post pics so I can see what they look like? The cards I know of in my mind are out dated in my head so I need to see these so I know what they look like. Thanks XD.:)

Yeah that's the only difference.
To answer your questions about getting the RH instead of the holos, it's totally up to what you prefer, I like the holos more and I'm not a big fan of any RH card, so I don't really collect them.

Wow, looks like AmiAmi is also sold out of pre-orders. There's a chance they may reopen them before release if they can guarantee more stock, but I don't know of any other place you could pre-order outside of some Ebay seller.

See if you can Google the set. You may be able to find a seller that has them. If you are planning a trip to Japan soon see if you can check around places there. If not just search around XD.:)

Yeah... I've been checking every day since I was waiting to place my preorder for the boxes until those had been added and I threw my hands up in the air when I saw that they were up... and preorders were already closed. Can't win 'em all. Guess I'll keep checking back.

What sort of card is this?

Years ago, I bought the FireFang theme deck and it came with this holographic makuhita. I've been trying to find out about this kind of holographic cards, but have not found any information at all. This makuhita card is not even mentioned in the card list...

As you can see it has no e-Reader dot code and it has this rainbow-like shine. Anyone?
