Full Art Jirachi~~~~ That's the FA from this set I'd really love to get. Because I'm poor, my boxes are coming slowslow mail, so I probably won't get them until sometime in April. Thanks for sharing!

Omg I need. My Jirachi collection is half complete and now 2 moar cards to adds.
 
Jirachi-EX in theory was very appealing to me but BOTH versions of it have an unpleasant grumpy face because the cute Legendaries can't just... be cute for some reason. -_-
 
Wow Viper, thats a pretty nice set there you have so far! I'm guessing it was a combination of 2 boxes? :)

I like all the legendary Kyurem/Reshiram/Zekrom collection you had! :3
 
Yes, it was two boxes! :)

And yeah, ever since ACE Spec cards began we've had a decrease in SR pulls. Frustrating, especially given that there are 6 of them this time + the FOUR(!!!) UR pulls (of which already stand at 1 pulled per 5 boxes)
 
Wow. Yeah, the ACE SPEC needs to be corrected. Explains why I had some bad pulls from Plasma Storm. >_<

Do you plan on purchasing the rest of the set through "special people" or are you going for pulls (lol)?
 
Yeah I'll probably get the rest of them through Yahoo Japan or something. There's no point in me getting another box since I'm only missing three cards from the standard set. I can't viably guarantee SR pulls, let alone UR.
 
Right right, I figured as much. If shipping wasn't such a pain in the US, I'd order from Yahoo Japan as well. :p Still looking forward to my incoming box and hoping it comes soon! I'd like to get some EX's in hand! :)

The Japanese and English pull rates aren't equivalent. Ace Specs don't affect EX or shiny pulls, I'm sure, because they're in the reverse holo slot in an English pack.
 
Huh, the Ace Spec thing makes sense. I feel like my pulls have been slightly worse since they came out, but I just attributed it to luck. Japanese pull rates are still much better than English boxes, though.

No but Plasma Storm is a LOT more random than boundaries crossed. Boundaries Crossed I felt like I pulled an Ultra Rare (full art and shiny) every time I bought more than 6 packs. When my friend opened boxes, he got a least one full art every time. His Plasma Storm box pulls however either had no full arts and no shinies or no Ace Specs. His last one recently had 0 EX's, but one Ace Spec and one full art Cobalion.

Plasma Storm for me, I have bought so many packs but have never pulled a shiny and only 3 full arts. I even bought 27 packs from Target which was all they had and not one of them had even an EX!

But anyway this isn't the thread for pull rates I'd just thought I'd let people know that. I'll keep my trap shut until I get my Megalo cannon boxes and post pictures of what I get. :X

Discussion of scaling packs is prohibited on PB. ~SoulWind
 
27 packs from a Target and no EX (or shiny/ace/FA)?? I would have to say somebody is probably weighing packs, like someone is at my walmarts and kmart. It makes things crappy, and now I only buy if I am sure it has been freshly stocked (plenty on the shelves or full shelves).
 
I do that at your target with my giant scales... OF JUSTICE.

No but srsly maybe you're just unlucky. I got a Bianca FA out of 27 packs at a walmart once and nothing else.

^Don't you feel kinda guilty taking all the good cards for other people to get junk.

Yep.

That's why I use my giant scales of justice.

Seriously, I don't weigh. I used to, then I got what I needed, and stopped. It's really that simple.

Yeah same thing here I tried weighing before, and I just felt really bad about it. I think its more fun when you can get anything than getting a guaranteed holo/ultra rare by weighing. It makes me feel happier :')
 
Is it worth collecting the Alph Lithographs? I don't think so, but I kinda want them for no reason.

Discussion of whether or not it is ethical to weigh booster packs does not really belong on this thread. You can either post about your own collection (your goals, new additions, etc) or other collections shared on this thread. We want to keep this thread more casual but let's try to stay on-topic.

To get things back on track, here's a new arrival for me:

So shiny! @_@ imagine how someone from 1999 would have their mind blown if they saw that ^_^
