"How needs a plan when you have dumb luck." needs to be my new vocabulary.
Happy New Year Jake! This is a great start! At the current market price for the booster boxes you broke even. And these were really good boxes.. Which is the problem with this set right now. You can just buy the singles of the cards and be better off (most of the time). But way more fun trying to pull them.
I think 2023 will be the year I fully switch to buying Japanese sets. Like you said, the English ones have no guarantees about pulls and I've been burned too many times getting almost nothing lol. Also, Happy New Year!
Love your content man. You offer great intelligent insight into collecting. What a great opening. I got a booster box and 10 packs on the way. Can't wait.
that sleepy zard is so OC haha
I've had some awesome dumb luck recently, the pull gods are finally smiling down on me!
00:52 friends in sunnoh
btw those holos like the gengar and those reverse holes are actually worth $5-$4 ull be surprise of their actual value
Congratulations on the pulls! These boxes were insane! Happy new year and stay awesome everyone! 😊
Epc video!!! Thank you for sharing the love of the hobby! Happy New Year 2023!
I hit a god pack, a gold giratina, a gold dialga, 3 friends in hisui, 3 radiant Charizards and almost every AR and SAR minus a Suicune SAR which I'd love to get. But yea I threw a lot of money at whatnot for pulling those cards. I'd say to anyone that really wants to open this set just focus on buying boxes that you personally will get and open. This set is amazing, sadly the English one won't have god packs in them, and it's worth a little over MSRP if you can't find it on Japanese stores websites.
Dang, those were some beautiful alt art cards! Especially that Hisuian Samurott, makes me want to max out my credit card because this set is crazy!🤣 I actually bought myself a booster box last week and pulled the same Glaceon VStar alt art, and the Melony character rare, such awesome cards! Other than that, I also pulled the Charizard V alt art from Brilliant Stars! An Awesome way to end 2022! Here's hoping for more fire pulls in 2023!
You get 3 AR per box, 1 SAR per box 1 SR energy and most times 1 SR
Happy new year everyone ✨️
Love the phrase! Tempted to post it on my Facebook haha
Hope these box prices come back down from outer space
Those were some nice pulls!!! And hitting that SR trainer 🔥🔥🔥
Wow nice hits !
Set of the year and it isn’t close. I bought the entei, suicune, raikou and mewtwo SARs on ebay because booster boxes are too expensive for me. I am skipping crown zenith just to save money to open some Vstar universe at some point in time!
Anyway great video Jake!
Happy New Year!!! 🥳🎆🎊
Nice charizard hit! So sleepy :)
Love hearing Jakes mind get blow
If you’re grading your Japanese cards it would be cool if you sent them to Beckett to go for a black label
i need some dumb luck in my life haha. Great pulls!
1:32 "Zero sum game" doesn't mean what you think it means
Yes my dumb luck got me 2 god pack in a case . Lol
Stoked to see this set
What’s the best website to buy Japanese cards from? T try int to get my hands on some!
Where do you get rid of Japanese bulk cards?
Im heading to japan for 3 weeks in April, hoping they will have some of these boxes to bring back
I went for 2 weeks to japan and got 2 boxes, don't go to the big cities to get a chance to buy them
Incredible luck! Congrats!
great video!!!
Awesome, love this set but can’t get my hands on it for a reasonable price in the UK, still so expensive 😞
Happy new year jake!!!!!!
So envious. I’ve got 2 vmax climax and hesitant to open 😂
Zero Sum is a term meaning there is a distinct winner (winner take all) and a distinct loser. For example, heads or tails is a zero sum game. It isn't just a replacement term for absolute 0 lol
Let me sound smart please
I’m glad someone has the luck I can’t pull anything better than a v and can’t afford these box prices
my son got 2 vstar universe bb and he pull the friends that u pulled on one and the gold ur dialga on the other he has the magic fingers 😂
Where do you buy your Japanese product from Jake?
WHAT A VIDEO
Happy New Year Jake
That gengar holo is actually going for 10$-11$
I don’t agree on Japanese cards. English valuable cards are harder to get hence should be valued more. You can see how easy is to get good pull on Japanese ones
Community luck is unmatched
What kind of printer do you need to print out a psa submission?
One of the sellers I buy is the cheapest and he said it’s only going to go down 4-6$ once it reprints early February 😒
I’ve opened 5 they are amazing to open but you don’t always get this lucky lol i have been lucky my first 5 boxes i’ve pulled the mewtwo sar and the glaceon sar and i pulled the irida full art and last week i pulled the gold giratina
@twicebakedjake where did u get them for 80$?
Japanese Pokemon Cards to the Moooooon
you make me want to order more and I already open 6 of them lol
TwicebakedJake. Got a question for ya if ya get this or anyone that might read this. Recently I've decided to change almost 💯 to japanese cards sense they're better quality most the time. So my question is japanese bulk. Is their a good way to sell japanese bulk? I know English bulk is easy enough for the most part. But if I do almost nothing but japanese I wanna know how to sell that bulk so I don't just throw away
Sure, there are definitely buyers for Japanese bulk. If you buy pokemon cards I would message the sellers you buy from and work out a deal with them. I've made many new friends and contacts that way. Or just list your bulk up for auction and the market will decide how much they're worth
I need these
how do i withdraw my portion of the community portfolio? i'm ready to cash out
Let me just check your account, route it through our network, verify the tracking, and it's gone... sorry!
I’ve got a heap of vstar universe on the way, hopefully I see some dumb luck too 😅
Happy New Year!! Who needs a plan when you have bad luck! Hope thats not my motto for this new year haha
I disagree about the pull rates between English and Japanese. Your actually proving that English pull rates are way way lower than Japanese with this video. Quality is definitely better right now with Japanese, but Pokémon is working on that.
Love from Germany
What sleeves & card protectors do you use for your cards?
I use ultra pro sleeves and toploaders, for graded submissions I use card saver I
You were extremally lucky with those 2 BB. I opened 1 BB of Vstar Universe and can't agree that the pulls were great. I got FA Roxanne which got terrible centering and some weird dot on the front which means it won't get 10. I won't agree with you that japanese quality control is flawless. Other than that I only got Lucario SAR which is pretty much worthless because it'll be in every ETB. This set is very overhyped. I think long term it won't be as good as Tag Team GX All Stars because most chase cards like Irida are based on Legends Arceus which won't hold as much nostalgia as 1st gen characters or Pokemon.
You only opened 1 box and basing your opinion on that definitely need to open some more and yea gx all stars i would say the pull rates are better in v star universe the the trainers are getting expensive from that set but seems harder to get them but i will agree i don’t think this set will be worth as much as tag team gx but this set does have some awesome gem 1 cards the zards and the mewtwo and the glacion and leafon i think this set does have some amazing cards from older generations like the suicune and other dog cards
@@dspokemoncards6184 Yeah just as I said most of chase cards are from Legends Arceus and not many people are crazy about this spin-off game overseas. Rest of the cards will be available in english with Crown Zenith so there's no exclusivity like in Tag Team GX All Stars. For instance in TTGXAS you have FA of Erika Hospitality, FA Sightseer by Naoki Saito and FA Misty & Lorelai which haven't released in english. Those are gorgeous cards and you really don't have anything like that in Vstar Universe. Nothing to chase, just buy singles in japanese or english. I suspect even those 9 cards from God Pack with Pikachu will be released here in some box collection.
Awesome video btw as always 🙏🤝🎆
HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM AUSTRALIA 🥳🥳❤️❤️🔥🔥🇦🇺🇦🇺
Looking to pick 4 boxes too expensive at the moment
The title 💀💀💀💀
Is this an exclusive Japanese set?
how art rare only 3$ and secret rare only 10? 5:35 and then this 7:17 so every normal card is worthless?
hey just a little fun fact it’s special art rare not secret art rare
I thought it was live too
Do you make money when people use your Amazon link?
You’ve got a 30% IRR not ROI as you’ve not sold the cards and returned the capital.
What site can I use to find the card value of this set? For ungraded value and 10 graded value? I started collecting this set but I’m not sure of what sites to use to find accurate card value for this set. Any help would be most appreciated!
I use ebay sold listings to get a value on these cards
Is stockx a trustworthy place to get v star universe in your opinion?
Yes I've bought from them many times, they authenticate every sale before shipping to you
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍🏽
Do you regret buying the new pikachu promo collection? Bought it 1 day before the news about the card would come in CZ and i’m so sad
I do not! If you watch this video you'll see we show a $400 Japanese Marnie even though it has a $40 english version, and a $400 Japanese Charizard & Reshiram even though there is a $10 English Version. Japanese versions of cards can still outperform their English versions. Especially in this case where the Japanese Pikachu is significantly more rare
@@TwicebakedJake 🖤 that’s true
I mostly collect English sets. Is the Japanese cards more valuable?
It depends, some cards like the Japanese Irida and Japanese Pikachu art rare are going for $200 because they're signifcantly more rare and popular. But it just varies
Japanese are cheaper usually, but like Jake said it varies based on rarity and popularity
I don’t understand what this is, youtube is making it seem like this is live but it can’t be
I got 2 box’s of VSTAR Universe from 2 different sellers, and I got the same 3 regular Art Rares in both boxes. I calculated the odds of this, and it turns out you have a way better chance of pulling a god pack versus 3 duplicate AR’s from 2 total boxes 🤯
How do I invest in that portfolio
Don't worry, I'll secure funding for us!
Less talking and more opening!!!
I would watch at x1.5 speed honestly, this guy talks too slow
Why do you not do giveaways
I do some, it's harder now because there's a lot of bots and scammers pretending to be content creators when they see giveaways
booo japan nooooo
