Not every holographic card was made equal, with some Gyarados and Hitmonchan appearing in theme decks, this meant you could open two boxes to yourself and still not pull a Charizard and the main point is back in the day the demand far outweighed the supply, so who could get their hands on multiple boxes let alone multiple packs
Every time I've been here they are always full stocked with a great range of standard cards, as well as older, Expanded legal cards too
The collection includes 6 cards, 5 of which are alternate art variants, and one of which is a preview card from the November 2024 set
On the other hand, full arts generally offer a more ooooh, shiny! factor if that makes sense
That metaphor works both ways, too Im sure youve played against the control player who runs nothing but board wipes, right
