    • ^ Added your video in for you as you don't need the URL to post it, just the part after the "v=" in the URL.

    Opened 2 Team Up Checklane Blisters, a 3 pack blister, and an Elite Trainer Box: https://imgur.com/a/CnNa69n

    Blisters netted me the Gyarados in them and then the reverse holo Zapdos as well as two Beedrill for fun/worthwhile stuff.

    The Elite Trainer Box was a bit kinder with a Eevee Snorlax Tag Team GX and a reverse holo Jirachi, plus a Skarmory that should be fun next set. Also pulled 18 Trainers from the 13 packs but no full arts.

    • So an auction I won off of eBay came in last night: https://imgur.com/a/Y6ko7el

    A very nice chunk of cards from 06-11 in there, filling in some gaps in my own collection. Was particularly after the league promos from that era.

    The gold plated Charizard, although beat up, was just a nice bonus surprise.

    Also opened up a Dragon Majesty Latias Pin box tonight:

    Pulled my 5th regular White Kyurem GX from Dragon Majesty.

    • Oh, wow, that TCGPlayer market price. Didn't realize it was that high. Almost tempted to flip that at that price. That by itself is only $11 less than my bid was, and there's definitely more than $11 worth of other cards in the album. The jumbos are worth a few dollars each on their own.

    That's some of the best Gyarados art I've seen since Gym Challenges Misty's Gyarados. ( ˘ ³˘)♡

    • It is some pretty nice Gyarados art, yes. I think Team Up's might have one-upped it, though.

    Opened a Team Up ETB, a Deoxys Team Up blister, and an Alolan Exeggutor Lost Thunder blister today:

    First 3 pics are from the ETB, and the last two are from the two blisters.

    Completely unexpected two GX pull from the Lost Thunder blister pack.

    You've been slayin' it with the Gyarados cards lately. Great pull!

    I've got a new Surfing / Flying Pikachu black star promo set coming, this time in better condition than my older ones. I've got the Evolutions secret rare rereleases, which are cool and all, but I need to get my nostalgia fix for some mint promos.

    I definitely have been pulling a disproportionate amount of Gyarados of late. Wonder if it'll end anytime soon lol.

    Do you have the Rising Rivals secret rares as well? Those are fun in their own right. Those ones are actually holo.
