“Journey Together” Enhanced Booster Box Availability in the Americas and Europe

[Water Pokémon Master]

As posted two weeks ago, Journey Together will feature an “Enhanced Booster Box” that comes with an N’s Reshiram promo inside. The card will feature a Journey Together stamp. (No listing mentions the stamp, but the set’s official press release says the card will have it.)

Only the Enhanced Booster Box will be available in the Americas. This is whether you purchase a booster box from GameStop, Best Buy, an LGS, the U.S. and Canadian Pokemon Centers, or a distributor. We know this because it’s the only version of the box listed on the set’s official sell sheet.
Europe has their own printing plants and has decided to do things...

Why make it so hard for Europeans to get something good. No Pokemon Center and now this

 

[TheLegend]

They really dislike Europe with no acces to pokemoncenter expect the uk and now this again.

This is a load of crap for European customers. Why does it have to be different?

 

[Phyro]

I guess we will have to buy booster boxes from the us now

So the card is still in the set only the "promo" has a stamp (like that eeveelution ex cards in that black box)? Than it will be no real promo so I couldn't care less. Stamps destroy cards.

What absolute BS. Well that’s one way to sell booster boxes at full retail as opposed to the regular much lower market prices. Team Rocket is going to be interesting over in the UK.

...so it's a box topper

 

[Shining Goodra]

Oh boy, let the fist fights continue.

I just need to know if it’s a black star promo or just a stamp

My current guess is just a stamp. Which is good. I won’t start buying booster boxes for promos.

 

[LittenFaffers]

Yay. Overpriced even more in Europe for a stamp.

 

[chris.n7]

Cool, so screw the rest of the world.

This is only available at Pokemon Center in the UK, so it's gonna be impossible to acquire.

 

[Fawnlily]

I know it would never happen, but I wish they'd release a product that skipped America for once. You guys deserve to miss out some of the time

It was called the UK On the Ball promos. Or all the exclusive stuff that China's got in the last few years. Or the Pikachu Wearing a Batik Shirt promos. Or 25 years of Japanese-exclusives. Or...

That does indeed suck but i'll point out that even though here in Australia we do have a Pokemon Center website, Surging Sparks is sold out, with Journey Together and Prismatic Evolutions not even listed. And we didn't get a release drop for Prismatic. If you wanted Prismatic at a reasonable price, you had to line up first thing in the morning at big box stores. And if you're like me, you pulled utter doodoo from the packs you bought (still salty).

I don't feel like this is a right step in the direction...
