HANDS DOWN THE BEST AND BEST LOOKING SET POKEMON HAS EVER RELEASED. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE CARDS WILL BE A FORTUNE IN THE NEAR FUTURE AND EVEN MORE SO IN THE FAR FUTURE, MARK MY WORDS. REASON I SAY THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE RETAIL PRICE AND THERE WILL NOT BE MANY OF THESE IN THE MARKET COMPARED TO OTHER MASS PRODUCED CHEAPER SETS. FREE GAME
FACTS. I've been saying this. On Discord/FB there's a lot of broke trolls who claim "iTs jUsT BaSe sEt RePrINts BrO" when it's clearly not. These decks are full of absolute fire. Plus the Japanese was only available thru limited lottery, you won't catch them at a Gamestop. I picked up 2 boxes already and want more!!
Don't blow a gasket dude
No packs = okay investment
Cool cards but most people want to go for pulls.
@@Llamaingtonit’s almost as if you can play with the cards and that’s what this product is for😮😮😮
thank god you posted this so I didn't have to watch Leonhart open it..
Why you hate him?
@@kyanofifa6428Most of us hate him. 😂
controversy? haven’t watched him in years
He cries every other week he’s quitting
He sucks
For the "coin flipper", pretty sure the white holes are both heads and the "black" holes are both tails. The even distribution makes for a cleaner 50/50 chance at either for a single ball roll.
@20:17, I just noticed that both Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan are in each other's background. Something I never caught onto the first time. Love the gold holo and nostalgia of this box.
The Japanese version of this product is sooooooooooooooo pretty. The gold holo pattern needs to be seen more.
The gold holo border is such a nice touch, the English version is crazy for charging that much without the aesthetics to the cards.
It's called the TCG Classic because that's what the classic cards looked like.
@@adzmitch That’s fair, but also like, paying so much for what’s basically reprinted cards just doesnt feel right
Wait the English version doesn't have the gold holo borders and etc?
nope. English, as usual, lower quality. and more expensive. lmao. @@Atrocious1
@Stocky3 damn, I was seriously considering picking this up just because of how cool these versions of the cards are. Maybe just pick up the JPN versions. That's so lame!
They need to keep making those clear sleeves for the etbs instead of the matte ones imo. I’d love to use the sleeves but I just hate the way the matte makes the cards look 🙃
knowing tpc it's a cost thing, so i doubt we'll be seeing that happen soon sadly
Lets get it. Gotta catch em all
Seriously, I don't want to look at murky cards.
Im not sure how, but pokemon specifically sends me on a nostalgia rocket ride and I don't think that feeling will ever go away. Thanks for letting the little guys that won't get a chance to open sets like this live vicariously. Content like this is like therapy
It looks amazing but $400!?!? The holo pattern on those cards are amazing! They need to do that more.
Awesome set!
Crazy price!!
still more worth it than Van Gogh Pikachu
If the English version was identical to this for 250 it would be a no brainer for me!
Where do I find it for 250
@@austinstolze5018
Hes saying IF it was.
If japans is 250 I don’t understand why ours is 150 more but yes IF it was that price. I’ve never even seen it anywhere for retail because it’s instantly sold out anywhere
@@TheDanimatorsChannel I meant the Japanese version
@@austinstolze5018 when did he ever mention the japanese one for 250 LOL?
The white rings signify “heads” and the blank spaces for the balls signify “tails” so you can do two “coin flips” simultaneously! Great video man 👌
You wouldn't want to do them at the same time, it would significantly decrease your odds.
yeah how are people being this dumb with coin flips. 4 slots and he immediately thinks only 2 of them count@@floridarunner4089
Yeh it’s a poor design, disappointed they didn’t include a really nice coin with felt tray to flip it into
@@floridarunner4089 for real
I love how these decks are constructed to be played against each other and not meant to be put in slabs. ❤
This version is so much better than the english one... And theyre charging more for it.
It's actually kind of disrespectful in my opinion.
I feel like this should have come out for a big anniversary, timing just feels so random for such a nice set
I agreed with you man, Pokemon timing is like off this recent years
Yes this should be like the 30th years anniversary product
the cards are worthless though and cant be used in tournaments …
@@user-mi7cp7tb2k come back in 20 years😂
I didn’t think I wanted this box but I have to say I’m reconsidering after watching you open it 😂 🤦🏼♀️
saaaame
This box is wild. The attention to detail is fantastic!
Worth buying?
Wow, I was not expecting so many amazing cards, I thought it was just the 3 starters and really fancy boxes!
I wish to get my hands on this product! The playmat, sleeves, and the gold border, everything! Love the art work of every single card of the deck.
I wish the english set had the same holo pattern. But it doesnt its actually a very big difference TBH and makes me prefer the japanese set way more.
It's a "classic collection". It's based off the vintage cards. It would be weird for them to go with a japanese design on the english set. The yellow border is "classic", and imo, AMAZING!
Love the sets for people that actually play TCG.
Man this brings back so many memories I remember my friends in Elementary School having a Charizard and me not being able to pull it I was so jealous it's so cool seeing them bringing these iconic cards back having these would be a treasure to pass down as collection
I can’t wait too see reprints and anniversary sets ! Gives everyone the chance to experience the nostalgia at all ages ! I Think it’s great 🎉
Found out about this product via Reddit and was laughing way to hard after hearing the $400 price tag
My initial response too, but seeing those whole decks being blinged out. Seems worth it now
@@Graysandal4332I though that they will be playable. This doesn't really look that way. For the 400 you can buy a lot of playable decks and have fun 😅
That gold holo pattern is awesome! Gotta love seeing the og cards again
That box looks clean 🔥 Paradox Rift might be my favourite Scarlet and Violet set. The future and ancient cards look really interesting. It is a big set but can't wait to see you complete the set. ❤
Every time I see that Charizard card a piece of my heart dies. Short story is that I used to have a 1st Edition Holo Charizard when I was in Elementary and as a kid I didn't have a binder, but I had sleeves. Forgot they were in my pants pocket one day and my mom did my laundry...
Still awesome to see what surprises you get in each pack for me coming back from Ancient times.
If it makes you feel any better, it would be all bent up and crappy being you kept it in your pants pocket and handled it all the time lol
when I was a noob in MTG someone screwed me pretty good :( sorry you lost your charizard
@@chexnfx7161 I had hard plastic sleeves at the time, so it might be the corners and edges if I still had it. I also have my cards that I saved from that time period and they're still in good condition, def not 10s though.
@@Mingonator87 Sucks there's people like that, sorry as well brother
If it makes you feel better the card wouldn't be worth much at all
The Halloween Booster bundle got me back into collecting cards. Took a couple boxes to some Halloween parties and they were a huge hit. This box set looks super sick, especially for old fans like me that never got all the OG cards.
Just getting back into pokemon crazy how expensive this box is
Ohh man these cards look so Good I definitely want to get one of the versions. Some really spectacular looking holo patterns mixed with vivid colors. Bringing back arts from older sets is really cool to reprint like this.❤
This is insane honestly, vicariously living through you
Loving the gold borders on those cards, all three decks looks stunning, but it's still too expensive for me ahah
keep it up, loving the content!!
The cards bring back memories for me, I was a teen when they first came out and I used to collect them. As I got older I traded them for a skateboard and I could kick myself seeing how much the first gen cards are going for now 😂
What a beauty of a set! For all the pro trainers and hustlers out there!
Soooo much nostalgia coming back to your Pokémon card unboxings since I was a kid. Love the content keep it up :)
This thing is wild. Can’t believe they did this with just reprints 😂
Actually its worth it for $400. All cards are holo foils, and they are so pretty, high quality, and 180 cards total. (I think a deck is 60, and there are three decks)
This set is legit. It's proof they can have quality products.
The cards in those decks are absolutely awesome! I'll definitely have to pick them up individually at some stage! I only wish the Lugia and Ho-Oh/Suicune were reprints from Neo Genesis and Neo Revelation, that would have been insane. I love how it's not just base set reprints too, it's so cool seeing all the other eras as well!
First when this was announced I thought the price tag was too much but when you collect cards this is a must have for any collector
I personally love reprints, just like how they still make Jordan 1’s. Some people love the era and want to relive it.
King Rev 👑
This box is absolutely stunning. I definitely prefer the Japanese version. I was going to stay away from tbis box due to the price, but now im definitely keeping an eye on it!
that Mr. Mime was also drawn by a kid fan, not sure how you failed to mention that.
I believe you can still use the Energy Cards, but otherwise you're right. Those cards can't be used in tournament play.
take a sip of soda every time rev says high quality
Winner🎁
Hey, I started watching your videos about a month and love the content. I grew up collecting the original set and dropped off soon after but after discovering my old set and watching your videos, I purchased my first booster set in about 20 years with the Japanese Pokémon 151 set. My wife and I are expecting our first child later this year and your family has inspired me to get back into the hobby and hopefully pass it down to my kids! Keep up the great content!
I started collecting in about a year and a half ago. Sooo many videos over the years to go back and get your nostalgia kick plus new videos every day and a vintage live stream every other Tuesday. Rev is hands down one of my favorite you tubers
This is like so cool, like the gold and the holo:)
Why did i love the sleeves so much? they are like so simple but just right too.
9:24 the ones with the white details are heads and the black ones are tails. Each player has their own metal ball and when they need to use a coin they throw their own ball.
I remember in the late 90s and early 2000s their were a bunch of fake cards that look like stickers and they had this same patterns. That’s how you knew the cards were fake. I guess everything comes full circle.
I was thinking exactly this! I had found a deck of fake Yugioh cards in America when i was a kid that was stacked entirely with overpowered super rares and they all had the same full card cheap glittery gold holo patterns like these!
The Japanese cards ALWAYS have the best holo patterns. Those reverse digiholo cards recently are 🔥
That OG trio in the beginning caught me off guard! haha
I’d say the two white outlines could be heads, and no outline could be tails. Something like that
I believe the holes with the arches indicate heads and the holes without indicate tails.
Rev I’m a 90s kid who didn’t really have the money to play Pokémon cards. Thank you for bringing me back to those memories with your content ❤
I wish they released how many they printed of each of their sets.
The gold holo pattern on the cards is super cool though!!
I love Pokémon and buying boxes and cards, but spend most of my time on Yugioh locals and occasionally MTG, but always a treat to see some cool stuff.
Always cool to see new and unique products. Out local pokemon card shop loves you too
Rev, the holes with the white trim indicate heads and the holes with no trim indicate tales. You onoy roll one marble to simulate a coin flip.
Wow, I started collecting a little less than a month ago and need to find that box. I honestly can care less for the table, but it allows me to get my hands on the Big 3. Pokemon came out when I was a kid and really wish I started back then
Very nice and kinda elegant product. Seriously thinking of grabbing one in the near future
That holo pattern in the original pokemon run used to indicate fake cards. Interesting design choice.
I just won this English version for 20 bucks! I'm excited to have this. I lost all my old cards a long time ago. So deff hyped !
This product looks super clean and slick. Would love to see you open the English version too dude
I can’t believe this is all the Pokémon’s expensive set like 400+ dollars for the English person😮
Longtime fan here, I’ve been out of touch for a bit but getting back into collecting! Great to see you doing so well! All the best brother ✌️fan since
Nn
The gold border makes it look really good!!
the holos on those evolved starters are 🔥
Got back to collecting thanks to u! The nostalgia is just everything 😅
The silver marbels that you roll. The white could be heads and the black are tails or vice versa. 2 of each so if you need to roll two "dice" you can
Definitely want to see you open the English release too to see the differences
While this product is really expensive, it looks amazing and all the different artwork styles are fantastic. Thanks for showing this to us
Can't wait to see how they screw up the English version...
the holo pattern and silver borders actually remind me of the McDonalds promos. cool box though how baller would you be using the box and counters in a tournament
I agree the gold holo pattern on the border is very clean.
I'm gunna need to hunt down that Zapdos
Is it still random cards from the assorted sets after you get past the starters? There's no way these boxes are all identical, right?
This is absolutely insane
the shine to those reprints :O
I love the sleek black and grey styling. Cards are gorgeous too haha
What a Cool classic base set! The Deck looks so beautiful!
So with the coin flip roulette, the marked sections are heads, and the unmarked sections are tails.
The swirls on the magicarp were very cool
This is one of the sickest boxes I HAVE EVER SEEN OMG!!!!!!!!
Reprints of the vintage sets are awesome
Both the white ⚪️ would be heads and both the black ⚫️ would be tails!! Just makes it a little more randomized.
Still use only one ball though.
I cant wait. Im battling with myself whether to keep sealed or open the enligh ver
This product is so premium. You definitely have to do the English version when it comes out!
so obsessed with the way the holo looks T_T
Those different decks were pretty cool
So beautiful! I'll never be able to afford it on a paycheck as an educator though, so it's nice to see it opened and live vicariously through you, lol
Winner
should add a white boarder to the sleeves to offset the board...
I may buy this as someone that got out of cards and sold them during the covid boom, just to have one thing in my collection that i love and has the og reason i loved this hobby. As a centerpiece collectable.
Common sense would say the 2 holes with the white marks are heads and the 2 without are tails.
Honestly the most this should be sold for is $200. Yes they are reprinted original cards but it’s only three decks and some fancy packaging/stuff for the game
Where can you find the prices for the individual cards? I can only find celebration cards.
The holo pattern looks so nice especially on the borders
that looks so high quality. never thought pokemon would release sth like that
This is pretty awesome to see!! Definitely wanna see the English version!!
