    Wow, that sounds really fortunate! The booster box contained 36 packs, right? With my luck I would've had at least half the cards be duplicates. The whole set of uncommons is always challenging to collect (barring Blaine's Quiz 2 for your case). I'm glad that you acquired a couple of your most wanted cards from that set, I know that feeling :3

    Thanks for the kind words, I was really looking forward to getting this set. and to answer your question yes this box had 36 packs and the pack ratio was 6 common, 3 uncommon, 1 rare or holo and 1 energy card. I was getting kinda worried toward the end I was missing 4 uncommon cards and I pulled 3 of the 4 uncommon cards I needed in one of my last 3 packs. I had to take a double take when I seen them.

    I hope you have good luck in your future packs :) .

    Well back from my local target and got about 12 plasma freeze booster packs and here is a list of the rares I pulled.

    Beedrill .........reverse Holo
    Exeggutor x2
    Cacturne
    Leafeon x2
    Reshiram Holo rare
    Muk
    57/116 Cofagrigus........ reverse holo
    Nidoking
    Weavile
    Bisharp
    Steelix
    Kingdra holo rare
    Ghetsis ......reverse holo

    Well not the best pulls there, though I do like the 2 Leafeons, Kindgra, and the Ghetsis, I wasnt to impressed by anything else. Plus the Frozen Electrode still evades my grasps. :(

    Decided to get some more Boundaries Crossed packs from the Meiger where I got the Keldeo and White Kyurem Ex's as well as the 2 Keldeo's and reverse White Kyurem. I got 7 packs, rares

    Keldeo
    White Kyurem (Thought I had wiped them out of these in the last 5 packs.
    Victini
    Victini (Thought I might get a regular Victini ex, only have it in Legendary Treasures)
    Toxicroak
    Meloetta Holo
    Scolipede Holo
    Reverse Victini
    Reverse Shaymin

    The holos are new, but also warped. It seems every holo from this set is now warped in the package.

    Great pull there man, believe it or not that card Zekrom Full art was my very first, and one of only a few, full art cards that I have currently.

    Same for me :D My first FA was that Zekrom and it's also only one of two FAs that I own (the other is Reshiram EX from Next Destinies).

    So yesterday I went to Target and noticed they had a bunch of 2012 Fall tins out, I had bought a Mewtwo in the past but wanted to get Rayquaza and Darkrai.

    I didn't get them, but then today I went back and they had been picked over, there was only one Rayquaza tin left.

    My rares in the Rayquaza tin

    Tornadus Full Art #3
    Volcarona
    Infernape
    Togekiss Reverse
    Zapdos Ex

    So 2 ex's and a holo in one tin.

    My rares in the Darkrai tin Bisharp, Uxie, Skarmory, Sharpedo rev and Braviary.

    I also went to target and got 5 plasma blast booster packs. Here is the rares I pulled.
    Suicune........ reverse Holo
    Froslass
    kyurem EX
    golurk Holo rare
    Reuniclus
    Porygon Z holo Rare
    Masterball......... What i think is a Reverse Holo witch is pretty cool.

    for only 5 packs these were really good pulls. I really like pretty much everything that I got for rares, except for maybe the frosslass, but that is still a pretty good pull as I dont have one yet. My favorite card this time is the masterball, just a great card with almost no drawbacks.

    Well, here are 5 more plasma blast packs.

    Rares
    -Uxie
    -Mesprit Holo Rare
    -Accelgor
    -Cradily
    -Carracosta
    -Escavalier Reverse Holo

    Well with these 5 packs, that puts me up to 1 pack short of a booster box worth. Over all the pulls from these 5 packs were ok, nothing to special, though I really like the Reverse holo Escavalier, seeing how much I like Metal types in the card game.

    Got some packs from Walmart today

    I got a 3 pack with a Storm, Blast and HSUndaunted pack

    My rares were Sharpedo, Mespirit Holo and Scizor Holo from HSUndaunted

    Then I got a Deoxys Tin, I got a Kingdra Holo, Suicune, Haxorus Holo, Porygon Z Rev, Druddigon Rev and a Lugia Ex

    I also got 4 XY packs, nothing to note except Furfrou and Gourgeist Rev.

    I also got 5 Plasma Blast packs and again nothing to note except a Haxorus Rev and a Sigilyph Holo.


    New cards include Haxorus Holo, Haxorus Rev(Didn't get either of these in the booster box/numerous packs), Lugia Ex, Furfrou, Sigilyph, Gourgeist Rev, Druddigon Rev and all of the Undaunted cards even though I don't collect them I do keep one pack from any set I don't collect so glad it was this one. I'm contemplating getting another Booster box, if I did it would probably either be Next Destinies, Plasma Storm, Dargons Exalted or another Plasma Blast.

    Well I went back to the store that had the cards on sale and they had 9 more plasma blast packs avaiable, so i bought them and here is what I pulled. This will be my last time buying plasma blast packs btw, so here is hopeing I get something good.

    Here are the rares.
    Mesprit reverse
    Azelf Reverse
    Masquerain Reverse
    Volcaronia Reverse
    Frosslass Reverse

    Frosslass X2
    Volcaronia
    Blastoise Holo Rare
    uxie
    machamp Holo Rare
    Houndoom Holo Rare
    reuniclus
    and the final pack of plasma blast I pulled........palkaia Ex

    Well for being the final round of plasma blast packs that I will buy, I pulled pretty good cards here. Really like the blastoise, Houndoom, Volcaronia, Frosslass Reverse and of course, the Palkia Ex.

    now for a overall review of all my pulls from this set. i pulled a total of 1 Full art card, Dialgia: 3 Ex cards, Jarachi Ex, Palkia Ex, and kyruim ex, I pulled 1 Ace Spec card, masterball, and all of those cards are incredible, jarachi in my opinion is the weakest of them all though and kinda hard to use, for being an ex that is.

    Here is the stuff I never pulled, Excludeing Full arts and Ultra Rares that is.Virizon Ex, Genesect Rare, geneseet Ex, Wartortle uncommon, Elektross Holo Rare, Aggron Rare, Salamance Holo Rare, Daliga Ex, G Booster Ace Spec, G scope Ace Spec, and Scoop Up Cyclone Ace Spec. Really confused as to why I never pulled a Wartortle, and I really would of liked to pull some kind of Genesect as well.

    • My XY pack count without an EX is up to 30 now after buying the Xerneas and Yveltal tins as well as the pin blister packs of those two.

    Xerneas tin did give me an Ace Spec and Victini EX, though, and the Yveltal tin did give me another Ace Spec and a full art Emolga. Both of the Ace Spec ones were the Genesect onces, mind.

    It's always nice when you find an ex series booster containing an ex card during this time, especially 2 out of 5 :D
