Couldn't agree more bro! The fact that Temp Forces and Paradox are being slept on makes in a good time to invest in them. Prices are still pretty good for booster boxes but i really feel they will rise steadily over time. The artworks are so good especially Temp Forces and even though the Pokemon themselves may not be the most popular, the artwork carries the sets over the top for me. I have a master set of both and love them.
Watching from Germany over here! Fun fact: In the area where I was born (Ostfriesland), we call ourselves "Ossie", which is pronounced the same way as "Aussie" as you guys do. So every time you say "Aussie" I kind of think you are referring to us "Ossies" too haha! Keep it up man!
We watch a lot of poke-content since we play and collect as a hobby. We may miss a lot of other stuff here and there, but we never miss an upload by the Oz. Always a pleasure, we'll be here for the next. We appreciate your commitment
Always love your investment vids Oz, something so real about them. I still need to pick up some paradox rift before team rocket drops and it's cool to have someone so knowledgeable on the investment journey. Watching from the US or Germany
I definitely agree. These are two very underrated sets. With paradox, there is such a large variety that it would be crazy to think those boxes and do decently well later down the road. I’ve picked up quite a few cards from my collection just to show how much I love paradox. Same with temporal forces! Honestly, for me, temporal forces is higher on that list than paradox but the artwork and the Pokémon choices they made for illustration, rares and special illustration Rares are stunning. Like you mention these won’t be the top Scarlet Violet sets but they will do well in think.
Just made my first two buys of booster boxes. I picked Paldea Evolved and just got a Temporal forces before it spiked up another $10 usd. Been on the fence with Paradox but its a such a great price for a new collector like myself. I am fighting hard not to pick up one. I just dont see the card artwork as nice as Temporal.
I like both of these sets but I don’t understand why so many people like TF more than PR. To me PR is a much better set. Bigger, better chase cards, better IR’s (except for gastly), better color scheme for cards, and does the ancient and future scheme better imho.
I’m in that exact situation, 1 booster box of each…but putting money right now into 151, Twilight, Paldea Evolved and Prismatic Evolutions. Hoping that Temporal and Paradox prices stay low at least through early 2025 so that I can get my fill of the big hitter sets and then swing back and pick up a case of each of these. It’s a risk…but it feels like it’s more of a risk of missing out on the big hitter sets before those sets go to the moon!
Temporal is my favourite SV set! The whole future/past Pokemon thing really worked for me. Definitely my favourite gimmick since Mega Evolutions. Been buying these in this gap inbetween releases.
Quick question Oz since you’ve been in the game for a while, I’m thinking of buying more booster boxes in January/february, I feel like everything goes up right now during the holidays. From your experiences do prices drop a little after Christmas given lower demand and people broke/recovering from the holidays haha thank you!
I have a PSA 10 Steelix IR. I also have every SIR in PSA 10 from temporal. Nobody wanted them, I’ll gladly take them. Shiftry is also a very underrated IR too.
Obsidian Flames just got a reprint. It’s going out to distributors soon. I’d imagine Twilight gets a reprint in the spring and then surging gets one sometime after.
Im curious, i bought 5 151 japanese boxes for 90 euro each, do you believe its a good investment or bad invesment? Should i open some or keep them all sealed?
Huge total set value, popular Pokemon, cheap boxes for what you get. It's as close to a no brainer as you'll get in this market. If you want to open why not open 1 or 2 and save some for the stash?
@monkey39128 ah okay, yeah the set also seems fun to open, but I was thinking it might be better to save them as I noticed it was high at some point before it got reprinted
@@pokeoz91 people that haven’t played the VGC just don’t understand how cool these new pokemon are. Terapagos is one of my favorite pokemon now and I’ve been collecting since 99. Yes, I’m old.
I love Temporal forces. Pokebeard told me that nobody talks about it, which makes it irrelevant and not a good set. Which I found pretty dismissive and rude.
That’s extremely dismissive. It’s not being talked about right now because of Surging Sparks and Prismatic/Team Rocket having the spotlight. In a few years people are going to be talking about it just like how nobody was for Fusion Strike or Chilling Reign.
I mean it's not an A tier set, but it's still pretty solid, I definitely buy the odd booster box when I can, especially when they're cheap. Thanks man!
@ It’s a B+ for me. I appreciate the set more than the average person does. I just have a really good feeling about how it will do down the road. Thanks Michael.
Double Crisis, shining fates, evolutions. 3 off the top of my head that didn’t always seem so promising to others. They did okay I think. *edit. Shining legends not fates.
What kind of 16 year old has money like that? And yes it's a good investment, did you buy that case on ebay? I was just looking at one for sale at that price.
Why would you buy something for that much money without understanding whether or not it's a good investment? Do your research before you invest in things. That being said, decent investment.
@@themobbdeep66 Why are you assuming I didn''t do any research, because i''m 16? I'm just getting an opinion from an obviously more enlightened investor

Both badass investments. Stellar crown and twilight masquerade PC ETB’s are the play right now in my opinion.

Haha how good is that!!
Maybe Temporal and Paradox will do a "Bradbury"? That is one of the few aussie references I got in my bag XD
Haha love it 🤣🤣

Great video Michael, S&V base set is another bargain ATM, I want more of all 3 sets at current price point mwahhh! :)
I love the Paradox Rift set. Think its gonna be a real sleeper set for the future

Paradox rift and temporal forces are my 2 favorite from scarlet and violet so far. The illustration rares are so cool.
They're both nice sets man!
@pokeoz91 yeah I like all the paradox and future pokemon sirs in temporal forces. The art style for iron leaves and iron crown slaps pretty imo.
Temporal is my favourite SV set! The whole future/past Pokemon thing really worked for me. Definitely my favourite gimmick since Mega Evolutions. Been buying these in this gap inbetween releases.
Yeah I've been doing the same man, as soon as a cheap booster box comes up in between sets, I've been buying them, particularly Temporal!

Yeah prices generally seem to be at their cheapest around June! So the opposite of the holiday period!

Twilight and Sparks need one but I don't know wtf they were thinking with Obsidian. Absolute troll reprint. 😂
@ yeah doesn’t make any sense. No one was dying to get their hands on more OF
@MRGandee Only person excited about it was Rudy. 😂
need etbs...want to open booster box...stop..addict needs fix lol. Cheers for the fresh vids and takes mate.
Thanks legend!
Hey from Scotland 🏴, thanks for the update 👍
No problem 👍
until recenetly alot of my moves have been in swsh but that's rising now and a lot of temporal/paldean fates
I absolutely adore the Roaring Moon SIR
Great looking card!
What cases do you use for your booster boxes? Those seem to stack nicely.
Ultra pro mate!
Thank you.
I always thought PR and TF were never given the credit they deserve. I have a master set of both. I'm glad I got these cards for cheap.
OY! OY! OY! Your channel is a high tier channel. I can see it growing to100k subs or even higher. I certainly hope so!
Appreciate that mate!

Tapu koko from PR is goated 🐐
I knew what you meant by ' gameboy.' Haha
100% agree!!!
Just picked up 2 Paradox Rift BBs for £90 each on a black friday discount 👌🏼👌🏼
Nice work!
I agree dude. The 3 cats dont get their due respect imo
👌
Indian Cricket Team - Surging Sparks
Australian Cricket Team - Shrouded Fable
Seems that way man 🥺
then the New Zealand cricket team is evolving skies.
@@quickler1959 …😂😂👍
surging sparks will be the set to invest in
Yep, right after 151 and Prismatic Evolutions.
Aussie Aussie Aussie!!!! Belgium Represent!! Home and Away is the best show ever!! 😂😂
More of a Neighbours man myself.
Haha love it!!
Hey man if you had $250 to buy a card which one would you get?
A nice ex card 👌
@ any in particular?
Looks like area zero in the roaring moon SiR to me.
There's a few references to area zero 🙂

Im 12 and I bought a case of each for $600, is this a good investment?
are you mocking me
@@FelixgreenYT I'm 7 years old and bought a case for $2,000. Is this a good investment?
That's just mean. 😂 Kid's doing better than me. When I was 16 all I cared about was Football (Soccer for my overseas friends), Xbox and girls. 😂
Double Crisis, shining fates, evolutions. 3 off the top of my head that didn’t always seem so promising to others. They did okay I think.
*edit. Shining legends not fates.
Do you mean Shining Legends? Shining Fates is still widely available.
@@monkey39128oops. That was a slip. Edited.
Temporal will beat Paradox in the long run
I agree. Cooler, more unique set vibe in my opinion and tougher pull rates. I do like that Salamence from PR though.
I think so too man!
Don’t forget us Canadians 🇨🇦
