  • A Pokemon Base Set Booster Box is opened in this video. This is the 3rd booster box I've opened in my 16 Pokemon Booster Box opening series for the summer of 2014. This box I bought from Blowout Cards for $619.95. This is part 1. This box is easily the most expensive box I've ever purchased.
    Thanks everyone for watching and make sure to check out all the links below:

I just rediscovered this channel after at least 5-7 years. Thanks for the great memories. I hope younger Pokemon fans can enjoy this as much as I did. :)
    Edit: UnlistedLeaf was also a channel I enjoyed. I remember you sent a comment to this channel (Primetime) and he responded. It was an amazing feeling, I even planned on sending fanmail to UnlistedLeaf,but I never got around to it. These types of videos are amazing and I love that you're still doing it.

    Now THOSE are original booster packs...I watched some other video where he claimed his boosters were the originals but he had some kind of haggard team rocket packs, gym packs and shit...Back in the day those cards were worth nothing in a trade setting. I had no idea where people even got them because being so young I was only allowed to go as far as my local card shop on my bike and he didnt stock that junk. I always always always bought these and you were the shit if you pulled a Charizard, of course. None of that 3 ways to get a card crap. It was holo or not. I really need to go look for my trapper keeper man...i had a ton of cards in there and i am pretty sure i finished the original 151 set before I moved on to other things like vagina and cars.

I'll never forget the day I pulled a Charizard from one of those packs, I was so excited! That Mewtwo card is still one of my all time favorite looking Pokémon cards of all time.

    The original base set of Pokémon cards was the best. Back when finding a rare holographic actually meant something and was very hard. Now a days booster packs come with 3 holographics, 1 reverse holographic and freaking all rare cards, and if you didn't get a card you wanted, just get on ebay and buy it for 5 dollars. Back when this set was around, did you want a holographic Blastoise? Well you better have known somebody who owned one and was willing to trade it to you.

    • @cameronlynch2194

      +Cameron Lynch I was over exaggerating and I no longer collect cards but once every blue moon (once a year or once every 2 years), I'll a couple of boosters and I legit get 1 holo and 1 reverse holo in every single pack.

    • @missingno.5597
      @missingno.5597 Před 8 lety +1

      You're guaranteed 1 star card, it was just a matter of getting the one you hoped for. I was fortunate to pull holographics from a lot of my packs. I used to say "I could feel the holo" when I'd pick them out xD I have no knowledge of how pack content works after Neo Revelation. If what you're saying is true about getting multiple holographics and stuff then wow lol.... I still love pokemon, but I would not go back into it again since basically all my cards are not tournament legal in any format. I played Yu-Gi-Oh in 2004-2005. It wasn't until last year that I took Magic The Gathering seriously, I play an awesome format that doesn't rotate cards out. But yeah it is nice to just buy the cards you need online, it's more cost efficient.

    The first pack you opened gave me shivers. It is the exact same pack I opened in the year 2000 when I was only 8 years old or something. The same order of pokemon cards even! I remember buying it from a stand in florida and the stand was selling single cards. I was still fresh to pokemon but I remember me and my brother agreeing on buying a pack and if we both dont get what we want we'll buy the singles! I wanted a blastoise and my brother wanted gastly! We pulled both from the pack and were really happy! While I was watching this video I knew you would get a blastoise because every time you changed a card I remember holding in my hand and fliping through. Amazing!

  • @thepoptropicashow
    @thepoptropicashow Před 8 lety +4

    Eventually these booster packs are all going to be extinct, including the 1999 fossil sets. I'm keeping all mine sealed just to keep that nostalgia alive.
    I remember my dad used to work across the street from Wizards, so he'd go in once every couple weeks to get the packs before they got shipped out for testing or into stores...if only I knew how valuable those packs were back then.

    • @thepoptropicashow
      @thepoptropicashow Před 8 lety

      Yeah, but I opened all of them. I was in Kintergarten at the time. I remember pulling a Charizard EX from one of the later 2004 packs that they released along with Sapphire...I also remember it being stolen and lost on my elementary school playground. That was like ten years ago, though, back in preschool/elementary. My point is: hit amazon or ebay, don't worry about the price, buy some sealed packs, and just keep em mint and don't open them. In 10 years, I guarantee you the few remaining boosters are gonna go for 100+ bucks each.

    My first holo was a ninetails and I was 10 years old. My dad was a sports card collector like yours. I remember being sad because he immediately put it in a sleeve and top loader, not knowing he meant well.

    I remember when I was a kid (roughly 7 years old), my aunt got me and my cousin a booster of a very old set. Unfortunately I didn't get nice pulls but my cousin got a Zapdos and we freaked out. Very nice video

  • @pokachuz
    @pokachuz Před 7 lety +7

    Need some help guys!
    What were the only holos from the base set that could be found in booster packs? besides machamp, I recently found out ninetales, hitmonchan, mewtwo, & gyarados could be found in theme decks. So in that regard, what would you consider the order of rarity of the 16 holo base set cards? Thanks!

    • @PrimetimePokemon
      @PrimetimePokemon  Před 7 lety +2

      Machamp couldn't be found in booster packs, the Pokemon you pointed out you could get in theme decks too, all other holo cards were only available in the packs.

    • @pokachuz
      @pokachuz Před 7 lety

      PrimetimePokemon Thanks for the clarification! How would you order the rarity of the base set holos from 1-16. Thanks again!

    • @PrimetimePokemon
      @PrimetimePokemon  Před 7 lety +2

      The holo cards only available in packs would be the most rare, Machamp would be next, then the ones in the theme decks would be last.

    There was this tip online that I read when I was a kid that said if you open the charizard booster that is the darkest color (the packaging would vary from light orange charizard, to dark orange) would give you an actual charizard card. I went into my local shop and asked if I could search through their charizard packs and pick the one I wanted.. and they let me.
    On my ride home, I opened them. And bam. Charizard. Its a memory from my childhood that I will never forget.

    • @PrimetimePokemon
      @PrimetimePokemon  Před 8 lety +2

      Probably more of a coincidence than an actually way to get a Charizard, but congrats either way!
