With all the hype around certain sets like 151, it’s easy to get distracted by what's popular. This booster box has flown under the radar, but with some recent developments, it’s becoming a sleeper that people might miss out on.

I've been buying tons of 151 so now might be a good time to take a pause for the cause. Definitely need to pick up some Lost Abyss and Paradigm Trigger. You're right it's a golden opportunity especially when you compare it to the Lost Origin price. The fact that I could sell one of my Lost Origin boxes and buy 3 Lost Abyss boxes is nuts.
hopefully you got your 151 at a decent price! and i like your way of thinking about lost abyss - the japanese entry cost is just so much lower now
I had the same sentiment as u. I have a decent amount of japanese sword shield boxes but one box I missed the boat was lost abyss (no reprint). eyeing the price here in Australia at 150pound equivalent I couldn't get in but once reprint hit, the only thing I loaded up on was lost abyss. 15-20 boxes in a few shipments (~50pound) I really like how there is a massive chase and opening a box gives me fear and thrill unlike other sets (despite failing the hit) prices seem to have stabilised and just over 2 yrs now I believe is a decently safe buy
thanks for the comment! at the current price it's hard to turn down, considering it was £150 before - exactly that. and not a set that many people have compared to 151. 151 is getting too expensive for now so i really hope we get another reprint in 2025
@@pokemonstatcg the other thing to note is the sheer number of 151 printed. Psa population is over 300k while alot of sword shield sets only at 30k. yes popularity wins in the end but just imagine when the price of 151 does rise how much competition and undercutting u will have to face unloading those boxes. In my opinion I believe 151 is great but the climb will be slower than most anticipate. but that's just me I'm sure the market disagrees lol
I absolutely love japanese 151! I prefer the collection to english as less text make the artwork more visible.
@@erikvanderploeg9969 i love it too! justn did a video on my channel opening x151 packs of it
Please can you let me know where you have been able to buy LO for £55-60? I'm struggling to find a reliable source.
send me a DM on instagram
@@pokemonstatcg Appreciate it, will do
Going to pick up some lost abyss when I can! Good video as always!
thank you!
151 ENGLISH is the best buy now or cry later
151 English is really good but the video was titled “best Japanese investment”, so i didn’t consider it for this video. Thanks for watching. 😊
They’re doing another crown zenith reprint, do you seriously think they won’t reprint it a few more times?
151 English total value: $869.69
151 Japanese total value1: $3305.90
I rest my case.
You’re stupid if you buy it now a 151 English reprint is incredibly obvious.
I agree on not buying 151 I’m not buying any right now, but 151 is a different set than any that these were compared to. Although lost abyss has a very strong chase card, 151 has a strong nostalgia factor. I work in a card shop and we sell the singles like crazy and can’t keep any sealed in stock. I think 151 is going to be a bigger set than eevee heroes by far. I have 4 lost abyss, 3 151 jpn and 1 volt tackle for reference too.
thanks!
Agreed with your comments. The oy other japanese set I think that should be considered is Vstar Universe. It's slowly trickling up. Also I do remember this being one of the most enjoyable sets I have opened.
Thank you for your provding us with your perspective.
@@mclow2310 thanks for your insight too! VSTAR Universe seems to be high up on most people’s lists for one of the best set lists ever. I’ve been slightly more cautious with High Class sets because of how much they get printed, but still have a decent amount of it. Let’s see how it does in the next year or so!
Personally im pretty invested in crimson haze, has all the good sirs while mask of change has the bad ones, atleast with the pokemon
also a great set man! Perrin SAR and Growlithe AR, Eevee AR, Greninja SAR, and Ursaluna SAR - strong mix of cards. one reason why i didn't put it on my list right now is because i feel we will have 2 years to pick it up - although maybe right now is the bottom price :)
@pokemonstatcg your probably right but I rather get it now just in case, unless it gets a big reprint I dont see it dropping even if it does take a while to increase
Yes I will wait for another reprint. Missed this one while was a way on long holiday.
However. I also have not picked up yet sets like black flame, shiny treasure and a couple more which all are around £30 now. Would you still recommend Lost Abys over those other sets?
Thank you.
i think it depends on your budget but i would place my bets on lost abyss doing better than black flame, shiny treasure etc in the future!
@@pokemonstatcg thank you :)
@@pokemonstatcg Definitely looking at historic data Lost Abys should bounce back where it was initially.
151 Japanese Booster box is definitely a great investment! All the great SIRs and the master balls. Mainly the master balls is why I feel like this set will be going for a lot in the future. The chances of pulling a pika master ball is super difficult. I bought a whole case of 151 japanese for like 54 usd average and now they are already selling for 80+. No doubt that people will love the first generation of pokemon. Look at the set Evolutions for english. Super over printed and when I say over printed that set was printed to the ground. But look at the prices of the boxes still holding strong.
i agree with your assessment of the set entirely! the point of my video was more that I think Lost Abyss is more urgent to pick up because it is much less likely to get another reprint, whereas i think people will have another chance to pick up 151 next year for 54 USD as you managed to! thanks for watching
@@pokemonstatcg Oh for sure but when I look from a consumer stand point. The top 10 hits of 151 Japanese sums up to be about 712 usb compared to Lost Abyss's 450 usd mainly coming from the Giritina. I feel like if I were to open Lost Abyss in the future I would be very disappointed with the hit rates mainly because the set depends on pulling Giritina or bust. The reason why eevee heroes does so well is because the fact that you may not pull the Moonbreon, you still have the chance to pull other amazing cards and that is how I feel about 151. Every box guarantees you a unique master ball which is the selling point for this set in the future. I also own Lost Abyss don't get me wrong. Honestly if it wasn't for the master balls this set will be whatever.
@@wintoshi interesting, i guess the question is, with 151 rising to where it is now, would you rather pay 90 - 100 usd for one knowing that you might be able to get it again for 54 usd in 1 year's time, versus lost abyss now for 70 usd but this might be your last chance? that's more the way i looked at it :) 151 as a set is stronger than lost abyss for sure. however, out of 100 investors i'd say probably 90 have 151 boxes, and only 10 have lost abyss. so i guess those are the main reasons why i'm recommending it ahead of 151, for right now. thanks again :)
Im picking up paradise dragona good boxes
The 151 UPC is a must have
I'm tempted to get another one just to get that PC Squirtle promo.
151 Went up $10 overnight. Available Stock is drying up and boxes are being hoarded again.
it's crazy how fast it's moving. i will just wait and see if there is a reprint next year - if there isn't, i'm happy with what i've got
@@pokemonstatcg I’m sure there will be a reprint but iff not I’ll keep buying anyway
Good videos . Hope to win giveaways
Well explained & sensible advice. Lost abyss is older & less likely to be reprinted but still japan 151 is great as most of japans Pokémon boxes are.
We'll see if you are as good as Pokémon nostalgia nomics for predicting the future say in 6 months!
thanks bro! hopefully we'll see a 151 reprint in 2025
kb dumb dumb, didn't buy any 151 😭 not a fan tho of the set. I prefer matchless fighters or as u said lost abyss, wayyy better sets
@@KBPokemonTCG hopefully there is another reprint next year and KB can pick up 🙏
