Looking into error cards and curious who out there collects them! If you could let me know if you collect them or you know a forum member that does I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks in advance,

PS: thanks to @lugiaslair249 for the suggestion to ask the forums
How ya doing. I have a collection of error and banned cards. I’m not hardcore, but I do have the dark dragonite error, no damage ninetales, d-edition butterfee and no hp dark persian plus more. Any questions, I can try to answer or point out some more popular errors.
Hi there! I recently started a very niche collection : Japanese old back cards with holo bleed! As you’ve guessed from the name, they’re holo cards where the shiny holo pattern goes outside of the art and covers the whole card. I just love the old Japanese galaxy holo effect, so the more I can get on a single card the better, right? I think it’s one of these rare cases where a misprint actually makes a card objectively more beautiful rather than just weirder. Here an example of such a card I own:
Thus far I’ve seen examples of such cards for Base Set, Fossil, Neo1 and Neo4, so I’m tempted to believe they can appear in pretty much any old back set. If anyone owns some of these and wants to show them either here, on the other Error showcase thread or by PM, please do!
I collect Holo Bleeds, Crimped, Offcuts and miscuts. Unfortunately the only ones I ever pull are holo bleeds. Haven’t pulled a single one of the others.
As far as I know @regigigagod has the largest miscut collection, and @scratchdesk and @fritz mainly focus on misprints/errors as well for their collections (Tony also on Blastoise).
I personally mainly collect any kind of errors for Pikachu, Seviper, and Mimikyu, although I sometimes buy cheap other ones when I come across them on eBay (most can be found in the two linked threads above).
PS: @hayo . I have two old Japanese cards with Holo Bleed (actually, it’s more like shadowing and not as shiny as some other Holo Bleed cards I have), Jolteon from the Jungle set and Raikou from the Neo Revelations set (sorry for the pretty bad picture, it’s a bit too dark in my room right now… ):
Joe and I will have to exchange notes just to see who has the bigger collection. All though with his thousands of instagram followers and connections I may just come up short
