Hope so
wonder if it will surface the rest​:thinking::roll_eyes::grimacing:

Wasn’t expecting that this Saturday morning :grin:

Surprised we haven’t seen the other trophy cards from this event! Super unique to have the player on it also!

Oh damn - so is that a picture of the participant on the card?

of the winner (second place I guess) and he’s the one selling the card

I was hoping that they’d never come up for sale so I’d never have to watch them slip away from me. It goes without saying that this would be the holiest of holy grails for my human collection. Unless I sell my parents’ house, I don’t see a realistic chance how I could get ahold of it though :sob:

On the bright side, at least I could update my Real Human Photograph Artwork Masterlist with the newly surfaced pictures.

I’d think if there were duplicates they’d be indistinguishable from these as these were definitely printed after the tournament. The only reason I could see them printing duplicates would be in order to give the best copy to the winner.

So we’re 2/3 now for the ăƒăƒˆăƒ«â˜…ăƒă‚Ș ă‚”ăƒžăƒŒăƒ­ăƒŒăƒ‰ă‚·ăƒ‹ă‚ąăƒˆăƒŒăƒŠăƒĄăƒłăƒˆ (Battle ★ Neo Summer Road Senior Tournament) Trophy Cards.

Lovely to see them together after all this time and who knows, maybe we’ll eventually see the No. 1 Trainer! So exiting.

Possibly a media factory vault extra and/or a template without the face for the illustrator, but very unlikely to have multiple Pkonno style extras of a personalized card. The extra 2000-2002 Neo trophies have all lacked personalization (missing the winner’s name & region in Japan).

@melchior,

There might be 6 of these, not 3. There were two age categories at this tournament, each with their own set of winners. We have no clear confirmation or indication that the Juniors didn’t also receive the holo cards with their pictures on it for winning.

Yeah I know, that’s why I said 2/3 for the Senior Trophies. I assume the Juniors were given out as well, and hope to one day see any of them. So 2/3 Seniors and 0/3 Juniors is where we stand as of today, nearly 20 years after the event took place, crazy right?
