i love 1st gen too, since i got some really rare ones. i hate the new ones, since they changed too much to keep me interested. but i love facing people with my old 1st-3rd gen psychic deck

I like collecting first gen cards, but I like playing with the later gen cards because they add so much depth and complexity to the game, while still maintaining the simplicity that let's kids learn to play and enjoy it so easily.

My favorite first gen card is Rocket's Mewtwo, though, followed by the Base Set Alakazam.

Yeah i know what you mean, maybe its just because i grew up with these cards im not sure, the new ones seem almost fake, its what fakes used to look like when the 1st/2nd gen ones were out.

That's a fair few holos and rares from the early sets that you've got there. I think that's more than I've got from the early sets.
