🧑🏻‍🦲👊 One Punch Man Trading Cards: Kayou vs Hero Archives

[@LockedBrown]

BPs are already listed on Aliexpress for £12 roughly $15-16 and the limited BP*s are listed, nice that you got one, got to see what the foil is like :)

[@TradingCardArchivist]

oh you're right - I didn't think to look there for comps. Those BP* must be super rare, I'm seeing listings at around 100$ from Ali.

Hi. Don't worry too much about the Naruto box. This type of naruto 10 yuan boxes (tier 4) are never in blister packs and are only secured with the holographic seal. Afterwards, we are never safe from an unscrupulous store that practices sorting or resell boxes from sorted cases, but the main sellers that you often use are serious stores that normally do not use this type of process. Good opening.

[@TradingCardArchivist]

Oh that's great news, thank you! I try to avoid any vendors that sell single cards and boxes - I figure those ones have to be cheating. I try to stick to vendors that just sell boxes.

​@@TradingCardArchivist It is, when in doubt, the wisest and most rational thing to do in fact, like avoiding prices that are too attractive for the most popular displays with a large secondary market. However, from personal experience and from the many feedbacks collected here and there, stores selling cards also at retail like anime card store or grand anime card store do not seem to sort their display. In short, the eternal question and the eternal debate because we will always find someone less fortunate or differently informed, rightly or wrongly, to affirm the opposite. See you soon for new discoveries and great hits again.

daaang what a nice box you pulled all Saitama rarities lucky you 🥳that Kayou box is realy nice i had fun opening it 🙂

[@TradingCardArchivist]

Right? That box felt pretty loaded compared to my usual luck around here 🤪

[@pklingforth]

Is this the first officially licensed One Punch Man set? I can’t find a lot of info online. Great Video

[@TradingCardArchivist]

As far as I know yes these are the first licensed trading cards - there is an older TCG that was released in Japan: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqTOp3apgstgpqM other than that I'm not aware of anything else official.

The PR came from the new little dino naruto card box. I Love both bootleg and licensed card boxes the offer different charms and I agree with you that when it comes to lenticular cards kayou do it best

[@TradingCardArchivist]

Ah yeah, I should have figured from the way the back looked - that matches the other little dino cards I have. I ended up sending a few of those PRs to fans since they gave me extra copies of each one.

[@Boosterholics]

The Naruto Kayou Tier 4 only come with those holofoil stickers on each side. They are not shrink wrapped. No idea why their most expensive box at the time came with less protection than the cheaper boxes 😂

[@TradingCardArchivist]

You know me, I just assume everything was tampered with - good to here that this one was normal at least.

[@Boosterholics]

@@TradingCardArchivist I know the feeling. This is why I go through that extra effort to still get the cards from flagship stores in China 😞

[@the_silver_tree]

You need a bigger table. Spoiler alert on the shadow puppets! Congrats! I wish the MLP HR cards were better like these ones are. My vote is for the Hero Archives set.

[@TradingCardArchivist]

If only I could find a larger mat - this is the biggest one that inked gaming prints. theoretically the camera mount I'm using could go up about 6 inches higher which would give me a lot more space but might make the cards too small?

[@the_silver_tree]

@@TradingCardArchivist good point!

[@jaredletsplaycards5991]

Nice pulls

[@TradingCardArchivist]

Thanks! I got super lucky with the Kayou box, pulled nearly every Saitama rarity from one box.
