I thought I dreamed these up once, but then @mrtz reminded me of their existence and I’m kind of dying to know more. All I know is that Tomy has been making these interactive battle card/figurine sets since 2008 or so, and the 2014/xy cards are particularly appealing
I honestly don’t know too much about them myself. I was able to find a set and from the few listings I’ve seen, the cards are almost always in played condition. This is definitely an uncommon find if not outright rare. They are beautiful though. I’m sure there’s some elusive Japanese blog that describes how to play this game.
So I created a account on here just so I could respond
I have been collecting these for the past year and a half. I was also the first person to ever grade these with Beckett or any company from what I can tell (this was a process )
Most of the graded copies out there (very very few) were graded by me and I only know of one other person who actively looks for these cards.
Despite all of this finding any information on these cars is really difficult.
All I can say is that they have been really difficult to find in any condition but I fell in love with the design of the Megas.
I love that tyrunt and amaura got some niche merch love, my top favourites from later gens in addition to yveltal but they never seem to get too much attention
Hey I really appreciate you joining and sharing. They really are striking holos, and the scarcity certainly make them appealing.
With such a scarce item, I don’t imagine you want to volunteer the places you found the cards – but wouldn’t be upset if you did! I do my usual Mercari/YHJ/eBay perusing but honestly it feels like a long-forgotten item that would be easier to find in Japan at a flea market.
Why would you do this to me? Now I know about some other crazy obscure card and its going to itch in the back of my mind. Only silver living is that it seems PSA won’t touch these…yet…
If anyone has anymore info I would love it. I found one beat to hell copy on eBay that doesn’t interest me.
Amazing, its really appreciated when new members join to comment on their specific interests! @zork and I looked for a few days/week but youre right, suuuper tough to find!
Hi i know this is an older thread but i have had a sealed xy battle stadium in my collection for quite some time and i cannot find another example of it.
Would you reccomend this piece staying sealed? Or should i consider opening it and obtaining a full graded set?
This is one of my most favorited pieces in my collection.
How did you obtain it originally? Personally I would prefer the cards as display pieces but if it’s one of your favorite pieces maybe you should keep it sealed!
That’s honestly pretty insane. I’ve seen about 7 or 8 sets in the last two years but this is the first time I’ve seen a sealed one. I don’t know why I said they were uncommon earlier - they are definitely hard to get and rare to find. You got quite a piece!
