  • What is up all you Pokémon maniacs out there! PikiPikaPapa is back with a totally new type of video. There is a TON of talk out there about Disney's Lorcana and I wanted to take a moment to add my two cents into the mix. With that being said I know a lot of people will feel strongly one way or the other so it will be a blast to hear all the opinions!!
    I can officially confirm that the PikaPikePaPa Discord is officially up and running. If anyone is looking for a fun and safe space to chat, look no further!

    I'm also a big PSA grader so I'm including all my tools of the trade if anyone is interested! A little additional prep work, time and effort goes a long LONG way in the grading space so if you're newer to grading I've put out a ton of videos about the subject!!

    A few details missed;
    The game is being developed by Ryan Miller who has experience in TCGs.
    The art was also deliberate to look more classic 90's cartoon.
    They've commented adding Marvel and Star Wars and at this time the anwser is 'no'. The focus is that classic Disney magic and both Marvel and Star Wars come with their own identity. Pixar is of course eventually going to happen.

    • @PikaPikaPapa
      @PikaPikaPapa  ปีที่แล้ว

      It will be interesting to see how it all plays out! As a big Disney fan I'm pulling for it! You only get one shot at a first launch so hopefully the decision for the 90's art is loved by the TCG space. I have a lot of faith that Marvel and Star Wars will eventually come. My guess is that would be a different licensing agreement as they were acquisitions by Disney and likely operate as subsidiaries of so they might be in a wait and see pattern on those. Awesome input my friend and I hope you're gearing up for an EPIC weekend!!

    Between Pokemon Obsidian Flames, 151, TCG Classic, Disney Lorcana, and a few other products coming this 2nd half of the year, it's going to be interesting where everyone positions their coin.
    I'm hoping the hype insights competition for some other cool products coming out of left field, but I couldn't imagine what could stand up to the hype.
    I think 151 is going to be huge for the nostalgia-heads like myself.

    Looking at the artwork that is coming in this set then in my mind it is of a novice nature typical of a start up.
    If they look hard at pokemon designers of the now they should up their game as long as they can commission high end designers who are not cheap and a smallish pool to nudge into.
    My budget is to stick with Pokemon and watch the sideshow.

      I couldn’t agree with this more!! You only get one shot at a first launch and they have the playbook for recent success by looking at competitors in the TCG space.

    I like the analysis and facts you shared. I’m really interested to see if (and how) this new TCG willI impact Pokémon. I agree on your conclusion that sealed products will probably not go sky rocket like Pokemon did. I won’t buy sealed items, but might pick up the top chase card a few months after release (once prices are more affordable, I hope).

      I think we will see a share of wallet impact meaning that now we will have a new hyped player entering the scene but people will only have so much money to go around so who gets it and how much of it will be interesting to watch. I do know some Pokémon people will absolutely buy into Lorcana which might effect the pricing and availability of Poke products that launch at the same time. It will am awesome to watch, I know that much!!

    I’ve wanted to be able to get on the bandwagon, but I just can’t seem to get there. So many Disney products come and go. I feel like this is simply a licensee puzzle maker that is going to release a card game that will cash in for the hype.
    I hope I’m wrong, but just can’t seem to get on board with this one… that said I’ll still buy a few cases like everyone else.

    I understand why you're looking at it through more of an investment perspective. but Disney announced they're going to print more so that it will be more available. The only reason it's jacked up high right now is because the first print run can't meet demand. They will mass produce to meet demand as it's the first set to hook buyers. They also said they're more interested in the games playability more than collectibility. The cards don't have crazy holos, and won't have any first edition stamps of any nature. They want all disney lovers to get their products and continue buying future releases. People are treating it like first edition pkmn and it's far from that. I think it's best just to enjoy playing the game. The mechanics are relatively simple and similar to hearthstone. Until it's reprinted and distributed, prices will remain high till Q1 2024.

    • @PikaPikaPapa
      @PikaPikaPapa  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Totally aligned with all this. I think sealed First Chapter will be the only way to go and it’ll take years to see some/if any meaningful returns. I’m glad they are printing the heck out of it. I do believe it will be ripped a lot so singles should be readily available well into the future. We are a huge Disney family and we’ve ripped plenty to play with!! I also don’t have a ton of faith in Ravensburgerbut that’s a different story 😂. I know no matter what it’s going to be a ton of fun to watch it all play out!! Thank you for the EPIC comment!!

    Something to remember:
    Disney’s stock has been encompassed in in controversy for years now.
    They fired their CEO over night due to company financial struggles.
    They have struggled at the box office under every single one of their IP’s (Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar, Disney Classic) in the past few years.
    Disney is notorious for over-producing the hell out of any merchandise with their name attached to it. Other Disney collectible are very mass produced.
    I’m not saying it won’t be successful but its definitely over-hyped.

    • @PikaPikaPapa
      @PikaPikaPapa  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Two claps for all of the above. I completely agree. Especially now that the Infinity Wars saga is done I think they are struggling hard to find that next behemoth in the box office. I know my family wasn't a fan of the new Dr Strange, Black Widow, or Scarlet Witch movies and up to that point our kids and us were all about those characters. This is hyped to the max and it will be hard to live up to it! I will say this, if anyone can do it Iger can. He has the Disney magic in a bottle it seems and a lot of us lifelong Mouse heads think he can bring the Magic back!

Since Ravensburger will be the sole producer of Lorcana we might not see that in this product but to your point the sheer number of companies that produce Disney products is mind-blowing!! Great call out!!

    Clear concise assessment of the situation. I can admit I may have gotten swept up in the hype. Was a really competitive TCG Player 9 years ago. Now being a dad my focus has shifted more towards collecting and playing games with the family. Was planning on picking up quite a bit to hold as a speculative investment but my step off the gas a little bit. Regardless it will be nice to get back into some TCG's again and this is the first time my wife has expressed interest in TCG's so Disney has something going for it at least. Cool to see you are in Florida as well. We are about an hour from Disney but haven't had annual passes in a few years. Looking forward to more Lorcana content.

    • @PikaPikaPapa
      @PikaPikaPapa  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's awesome my friend, we share a similar story. I was a big MTG guy back in the day but then life got in the way and I fell off. I've been a serious sports card collector for years now but my kids got into Pokémon a few years ago and I made the transition from sports cards to TCG again. I actually find more enjoyment in the TCG space so it's been a wonderful switch back. I, like you, have a wife who has found some excitement in Lorcana which again, only adds to the enjoyment I get from the product. We are about a hour due East of Orlando and are big Disney fans so the product really hits home of all of us. Appreciate the input man and I hope you and the family have an EPIC weekend!!

    If I were Bob, here are the factors I would be considering: 1. Magic is a $1 billion money machine with some 40 million players. Hasbro has been absolutely shredding all of its goodwill with those players and they are desperate for something of value to collect, which has led to the recent boom of new TCG IPs, many of which have been wildly successful. 2. Disney's entertainment division has been hemorrhaging money as they release flop after flop in the box office, making Disney desperate for a solid source of revenue.
    If I were Bob, I would not only have Lorcana on my radar, I would be looking at it as a potential new golden goose for the company.

    • @PikaPikaPapa
      @PikaPikaPapa  ปีที่แล้ว

      All great call outs and I’ll be buying Lorcana and pulling for it but Disney doesn’t own Lorcana Ravensburger does vs Hasboro which wholly owns MtG. Disney has licensed out the image, name and branding rights to Ravensburger. I don’t know their contract details but usually it’s in the 10-15% range for the licensor. So even if Lorcana becomes the biggest TCG in the world Disney’s take is 10-15%. Can it make an impact on the P&L, sure but Disney will need to figure out their own wholly owned products in order to get things back in line. I’m an annual pass holder to Disney and love it so I’m pulling for it on all fronts but sadly Lorcana alone won’t solve Bob’s issues.

To your point though, the crazy price point and the HUGE amount of hype around it will likely discourage the core group of players from taking part in it. My only hope is that they print a ton as that’s the only way to combat scalping and ridiculous price appreciation!!

    The CEO change angle with Disney is interesting, I was about to say they are getting a bit too loose with their IP with cards but it might be a good change and have Ravensburger be the only company making Disney TCG in the states. I think people were expecting Ravensburger to be Disney's exclusive TCG maker much like pokemon but with how loose they have been with their IP I wasn't as confident hopefully the CEO's classic mentality helps cement Ravensburger to be the main and sole distributor for Disney TCG cards.

    I think this is gonna mostly go after mtg. Wizard had really hurt his community lately saturate the product and ingress the price drastically. Disney fan adult even will give it an chance the art is good. The game have room for improvement after the first set . I also think the fact that it s a race to the finish line will make it healthier on a multiplayer format. I also bring up MTG because the team behind it have been know for it s work on EDH wish is also a more multiplayer format and casual. I think this is a game that will have an stronger casual community then competitive. While appealing to the collector and people who value art and flavor for the cash cow.

I'm talking old old like from Alpha through 5th Edition and it breaks my heart to see where the game is now that Hasbro owns it. I do believe if Lorcana, to your point, can crush the art and game play early it will be able to shave off a bit of market share. For me i like that the girls and I can collect and play it together like we do Pokemon and I'm sure it will encourage new families ot get into the TCG space!

    I'll bite when it comes out and stash a box. However, we know this will be printed to no end until it runs dry just as you say. As for art I think they are going the cheap route. Using what is already available because there is so much Disney content we will never see the use of any outside or inside artist creating new art for cards. Why bother paying someone to create when its already there.

    • @PikaPikaPapa
      @PikaPikaPapa  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We will do the same here, buy and stash a few boxes and open some for fun but that’s about it. That’s a good call out on the art and, in my mind, just another miss. Imagine if they did some new exciting alt art type Disney cards with some Hulked up and Maxed out Disney characters!! Yet, alas, they went the easy/cheap route which is rarely a recipe for success. Appreciate the awesome input my friend, have a great one!!

    They had to do it this way, i guess.

    Disney is the king of business passive income because they've become the king of IP! A lot of people could ask, maybe Disney should buy Ravensburger to have more control.. Why?! Why get active when you can sit back and collect royalties based off your own IP. Its the same with companies like Dooney & Burke and Loungefly, who make so many premium products for Disney that are actually sold on property.
    Speaking of Dooney & Burke, there magic bands are awesome! Magic bands are such a cool collection to have too... I think my family has upwards of 200 now lol

It was on thegamer.com if you want to check it out! Again, none of this means anything but I’d be surprised if they short printed this as it seems like they want to go the gaming avenue which will likely sell more product.

Awesome call out!! I am completely in alignment with you that I hope they print enough to satisfy the demand and keep the prices reasonable.

    let’s start with the quantity of the D23, which is the only first edition cards that will be released. You say 10k Mickey cards.. we don’t even know how many Mickey cards had been released and to date we have 422 psa 10… and we are 8 months out from when they were released.. it’s doubtful we will see another 9,500 more psa 10 Mickey cards get graded. Once again these are the only 1st edition cards.. they will be reprinted but not as a 1st edition card.. 2nd let’s not forget how many Disney collector the market has.. way more than Pokémon.. I would dare to say Star Wars alone may be above Pokémon..and to follow up on something people seem to forget.. TH-cam videos of Pokémon are geared around collecting not playing.. I hear everyone say there’s no chance that Disney will become as big as Pokémon. Pokémon is no longer a game that is played in the masses. It’s more geared around collecting and all the big names on TH-cam are educating people to collect cards which is exactly what Disney already has…. collectors.
    When was the last time you heard a top (over 100k) TH-cam Pokémon guy say anything about playing? It’s always pull rates, rarity and profits… which is collecting!!

      Believe it or not I totally agree with you!! I stated that I believe those D3 cards are fair priced at $2K and I think in the long run they will hold value really well!! Especially that Mickey and Elsa!! I was referring to the first chapter cards where people like me will rip and grade like no tomorrow, I bet there will be tons of those in PSA 10!! I’m also that exact Poke person you’re talking about I’m not really into the game just love the shows and characters and cardboard but we are also HUGE Disney fans!! We love the house of Mouse and have annual passes. Like I said I’m excited for Lorcana and we will absolutely be buying and ripping as well as buying and holding but I’m not planning on purchasing a vacation home in Maui based on future prospects of my sealed Lorcana collection 😂😂.
