Even with one less pack this is looking like a better pickup than the Tapu Lele/Fini premium colleciton from last year, but I'll admit I would have preferred they used the Venusaur/Snivy art for he jumbo card as Venusaur hasn't been featured on an oversize card in the Sun/Moon block, whereas I...

Oh my gosh. Those look gorgeous. I hope the localized versions of the pair are at least somewhat affordable after release in November, as the trend on the US/AUD conversion rate isn't looking too good at the moment.

I'd been anticipating that Hydreigon to show up as an alternate art at some point ... it's kind of awkward that it's included in this. I had been hoping for the colourless Ho-Oh, but maybe that'll be in Lost Thunder instead.

Shuckle has always been a mildly annoying Pokemon to play against in the video games ... I guess now it's a got a GX analogue?

The art on the Meganium is definitely better than the BreakPoint art, and the ability at least offers assistance in getting other Stage 2's set up. Too soon to say if it'd be worth the trouble of having two stage 2 lines in the one deck. I daresay its success is going to depend on the Chikorita...

It's a little odd that this Incineroar-GX for SM8a is getting revealed ahead of SM8's Tyranitar GX, and that they're putting out 2 Stage-2 Dark-type GXs with only a month between them. The card itself is interesting. I reckon the ability more or less sells the card, and it's rather creative...

That is arguably the best full art Lugia yet - if I can find a single of one of these while I'm visiting Japan in October, I'd be pretty stoked.

If you look closely at the Miltank art on the side of the box, you can see Whitney in the background. I wonder if she is also featured as a supporter in the set, and if so, if it does anything similar to the Metagross + Steven's Resolve combination in SM7 / Celestial Storm.

I guess this means that the four full art GXs within the set will be Reshiram, Kingdra, Dragonite, and Altaria, and the Hyper Rares/Rainbows will be Reshiram, White Kyurem, Salamence, and Altaria (as the Dragonite and Kingdra rainbow arts are included in the premium collection box). I hope the...

I was guessing we'd get a Celebi Prism Star at some stage, and I'm glad, though the question now is whether it'll be more interesting a card than Shining Celebi. Also not surprised about Tyranitar-GX - I suspect it'll be a dark-type as there has yet to be a Stage-2 Dark-type GX, though...

Y'know, sometimes I forget about the secret rare DCE ... only because I got lucky and pulled one on launch day, and it's been sleeved up in a binder since. ;) Saying that, I'd agree the secret Rainbow isn't as playable at the moment but I'd argue it may be valued higher in the long term...

That secret rare Rainbow Energy is gorgeous. I've got a feeling it's going to be expensive af though ...

Is it actually going to have the same art in both sets? I prefer the how they had different art for the alternative type Araquanid and Shiinotic in SM+ GX Battle Boost.

That Kakuna is a great addition to the Evolutions Beedrill deck, which I thought was a good casual deck back before Sun & Moon. Might actually be worth playing again!
