I bought a M Aerodactyl Box as well as a Mega Blaziken Pin and a Mega Swampert Pin blisters at Target. I also found some 2 holos/6 packs packs and some more of those 3 packs that come with a random holo and 3 packs. I didn't find any with full art Seismitoad as the holo so I passed...lol.
The 6 pack thing was cool, for 19.99 you get 6 recent packs, XY-Ancient Origins, most of the packs contained 2-4 sets, ie 3 Ancient Origins and 3 Phantom Forces.


M Aerodactyl Box
Furious Fists: Dragonite Ex
Roaring Skies: Dustox
Ancient Origins 1: Porygon-Z
Ancient Origins 2: Hoopa Ex
Breakthrough 1: Chesnaught Break and Houndoom FA
Breakthrough 2: Parasect


Blaziken Pin: Mewtwo Ex (62)
Swampert Pin: Kyurem FA
I will open the other pack tomorrow.

Some very nice pulls there, Maserati.



Opened the Hoopa EX Legendary Collection Box.

BREAKThrough Pack 1: reverse holo Hawlucha, Noctowl, Burning Energy
BREAKThrough Pack 2: Empoleon, Heavy Boots, Burning Energy
Roaring Skies Pack: FA Wally, Sky Field, Switch
Ancient Origins Pack: reverse holo Entei 15/98, Regirock, Forest of Giant Plant
Primal Clash Pack: Beedrill, Escape Rope

Was solid. The Roaring Skies pack made up for the mediocrity of the rest of it.

I bought some more of those 6 pack sas well as 3 packs from adifferent Target.


I opened one of each today, the 3 pack had a Stoke Charizard ex and the Dusknoir Rev, which is the last reverse I needed from Flashfire, I've now pulled every reverse from the set, the only card I haven't pulled is the gold Kangaskhan. The promo was a crystal shard holo of White Kyurem from Boundaries Crossed, from the deck. The pack contained 2 Flashfire and 1 Boundaries Crossed pack.


The other larger pack had just a holo Pyroar and a holo Rhyperior. The holos on front were a rev Relicanth from Plasma Blast, and a rev Steelix GL Lv. 38, 51/111 The pack had 1 XY, 2 Flashfire and 3 Roaring Skies.

I opened 2 Rage of the Broken Heavens boxes today.


Here's both boxes and closeup pictures. I think I was really lucky, I didn't pull any secret or ultra rare duplicates and I think I pulled every holo.

I... import myself a box of Japanese cards one of these days hot damn.

Also, turns out my brother had more to give me for Christmas that he couldn't find. He found 3 Furious Fists packs while cleaning.

Pack 1: Victreebel, Fighting Stadium, Full Heal
Pack 2: Glaceon, Herbal Energy
Pack 3: M Heracross EX, Sail Fossil


M Heracross EX was more than I was expecting from these packs.

I opened about 40 Dollar Tree packs today, most were Phantom Forces as I was looking for VS Seekers.
I also opened a Break Evolution Box, a Sableye blister and a couple of those 6 packs 2 holo packs from Target.
In the Break box I got a Haxorus Holo, so kind of terrible, but I did buy the one with no edgewear on the promos so I'd rather have promos with no edgewear then with.


The Dollar Tree packs: Full Art Sharpedo, a Full Art Florges, Holo Heliolisk, Holo Gigalich, Rev Chandelure and 1 VS Seeker(This was really hard to find in these packs)
A random Phantom Forces pack I bought at Target gave me a M Manectric Ex
6 pack number 1: A Head Ringer, a Holo Sceptile and a holo Dusknoir, the 2nd one that had 6 Roaring Skies packs had a Shaymin Ex, a Gallade Ex and a holo SWellow
The Sableye blister had a Gallade holo.
Will upload picture later.

On the 30th I opened some packs, I found a couple of the 3 packs from Target with Dark Explorer packs, one also had an HS Unleashed pack. I also opened some more of the 6 packs. In the 6 packs I got another Florges full art, that's back to back Florges full arts, M Manectric Ex, M Charizard X Ex and Kyorge Ex, some holos. The most interesting card I pulled was

Also I only opened 4 Dark Explorers in the past, 1 contained Magic the Gathering cards, a couple trainers and a couple code cards, the other 3 had Accelgor rares. These 2 both had Carnivine rares.

Someone had opened the pack from the bottom and taped both, they filled it with some Magic commons, a couple code cards and a couple trainers including Pokemon Catcher lol.

At the the time I was just starting to collect cards again so I didn't notice the tape thought was very noticeable if you were looking directly at it.

What the hell, man.

And there's an Espeon EX in the new set? I need to go buy some boosters of it now.


Anyway, picked up a bunch of stuff at GameStop today. Among those was a "Pokemon TCG: Elite Trainer Deck Shield" tin with 2 packs inside. Primal Clash packs, in fact.

Pack 1: Primal Kyogre EX, Rare Candy, Silent Lab
Pack 2: reverse holo Archie's Ace in the Hole, Medicham

Could have been a little better given that the tin was $12.99, but not too bad even still.

Yesterday I opened 10 Breakpoint booster packs and 1 Pyroar blister


Spoiler:

Spoiler:



Was also happy to see our local Walmart single blisters of Breakpoint were wrapped in plastic, this Walmart has their cards in a deserted checkout lane with little supervision as opposed to most places which either have cameras or they're by open checkout lanes. So I find opened packs here often. I kind of get the sense at Walmart that the employees don't care if people open them, and of course I worry that they may just stop selling the cards if the company thinks they are being stolen easily.

The employees probably don't get paid well enough to care that much about the cards.

Anyway, opened a BREAKThrough blister pack with a Mega Blaziken pin.

BREAKThrough Pack: Noivern, Heavy Boots

Ancient Origins Pack: reverse holo Hex Maniac, Entei, Dangerous Energy, Eco Arm

Primal Clash Pack: Groudon EX, Silent Lab

Not bad for a 3 packs and a pin blister.
