Ep. 33 - Complete Vending Machine Series 1 & 2

[PenaltyKillah]

Finally, all in the flesh! I've always what they looked like irl - the only time I "saw" these cards are on the Game Boy sequel - Japanese-only, of course...

[ricois3]

Why did you put [bad] music?? That completely ruins the whole thing

[asd616]

lol that koffing at 3:44

[CaptKirby18]

hey, I am looking to get into more trading card communities, where exactly is this chat room you are describing?

[ShaneequaRayquaza]

AWESOME vending series collection; not every collector is fortunate enough to have these cards. 5 stars!

[PokeFanatic88]

The obscurity is what I love most about it =] Definitely adds that unique twist that makes this set legendary!

[PokemonTraderBrad]

i just came back too after like 6 months

[PokeFanatic88]

@PokemonTraderBrad Yup! I've noticed =] Awesome to have you back as well!

[skeletonliar101]

Wow. VERY nice! I remember seeing these cards a long time ago! (Maybe 10 years ago?) I've always loved that Mewtwo card from the first series. The artwork on all of them ranges anywhere from amazing to goofy-looking. lol And some of them were actually drawn by some kids! I always liked that.

Anyway, that's awesome that you've completed the first two sets! They're pretty rare. =)

[PokeFanatic88]

@skeletonliar101 Yeah! I loved the fact that they allowed their fans to contribute to the making of the oh-so popular Pokemon cards back in the day =]

[skeletonliar101]

Yeah, I always liked these sets, but I was never able to get any. =\ Perhaps sometime in the future.

Can't wait for your series 3 video! =)

[PokeFanatic88]

Everything is good, although school can be quite stressful at times =]

The vending series is quite expensive, but occasionally you find a good deal for them! I found all three completed sets at an amazing price that I couldn't refuse and 99% of the cards came out mint so I was extremely happy.

[iamnotlame]

Nice, love the obscurity of the vending cards. Seen quite a lot of them but never owned any myself

[PokeFanatic88]

Yeah, they're really cool especially the "user hand drawn ones" that are really evident in the third vending set as literally the whole card is hand drawn =] It's definitely a cool and unique thing.

[pokemoncraigybaby]

nice to see you back,how are you getting on in your dragonboat nationals thing?

[PokeFanatic88]

It's going good! Just doing a lot of weight training and individual boating practice =] I'm still trying to juggle work, school and 6 days of practice but I've been managing =] Thanks for asking!

[Pokepics]

Dam man those are amazing your so so lucky to have these and its greatto have you back also dude :)

[PokeFanatic88]

ahaha thanks, but you've also got quite a bit of amazing things to look at yourself ;) *cough* complete ex, level x, and crystal cards *cough* haha

[crzy55]

Wow these are awesome.

[PokeFanatic88]

Thanks mate =] Super excited that you're a partner now?

[PokeMyShlong]

Very cool set. Graveler and Hitmonchan look super weird.

[PokeFanatic88]

Indeed, a very cool set! Yeah, wait until you see the third set and you'll some VERY unique cards =]

[DooDooDaDaLaLaLa]

oh hot damn! that is an amazing feet! how long did it take to complete this?

[PokeFanatic88]

You know what? This is one of the few sets I didn't complete from scratch. I saw all three sets bundled into an amazing auction at an amazing price so I couldn't say no to it. And the cards came in absolutely mint condition except for 3-4 out of 120ish so it was great =]

[GsKillz818]

Hell yeah man, you're back. I remember the song you put in one of your e-series sets video; that song was pretty epic.

I'm a sucker for the Red and Blue remixes. Great choice for this one.

[PokeFanatic88]

ahah thanks! pokestudioremix is always great for remixes =] Feels like one big happy "PokeTuber Family" now that everyone is pretty much back haha

[pokecollection]

Good to see you back, buddy! Never actually properly seen the vending series before so good to see these. Really cool artwork.

[PokeFanatic88]

Definitely some unique artwork in this set =] Wait til the 3rd set, you'll see some very amusing cards.

[Arcanine88]

Awesome awesome video man! :D

Thanx for sharing this with us as well!

5/5 and faved! :D

[PokeFanatic88]

haha thanks a lot for watching =] glad you enjoyed it! I'll be releasing the 3rd set soon.

[MrSunty]

yes hes back!!!

[PokeFanatic88]

I am indeed =] Thanks for the support and not forgetting about me =P haha

[TheSmgQuest]

nice set

[PokeFanatic88]

Thanks =]

[JimmyGoesRAWWWRR]

Im really happy to see your back this sets awesome do you plan on getting the other one and do you just ebay them ?

[PokeFanatic88]

I do have some spare vending series cards from what I've peeled from the actual sheets but I got all three vending series sets for a really cheap price a couple months ago. And the cards are flawless with the exception of 3-4 out of the 120-ish cards in these three sets. I'll simply just replace them in the near future =]

I'm currently seeking the Masaki cards though. Looking for a good deal cause they're quite pricey right now.

[JimmyGoesRAWWWRR]

Thats Awesome yea this is one of the sets i would want to do but just like buy it all at once i just find stuff liket his easyer yea alot of the jap cards cost so much now

[legendslugia251]

wow complete vending series 1 and 2 i havent even gotten 1 finished yet lol nice work

[PokeFanatic88]

haha this coming from the guy with the extremely rare VS series cards =] I'm sure you'll complete it easily, the only hard thing is finding the sheets or accumulating the cards from random sources but 36 cards is definitely doable =]

[legendslugia251]

dude trust me i found sheets and a stack full of em i can complete more than 2 sets with that if i wanted to lol.

[PokeFanatic88]

haha I don't doubt it =] Did you get a stack for all three sets or just the first one? I'm regretting not getting the Masaki holos earlier but I guess I made the right decision for the circumstances at the time lol

[legendslugia251]

the store only had set 1 which sucks.i'm regretting that auction just last week for like over 100 promos including the web series cards.

[PokeFanatic88]

lol I was talking about the Masaki "set" that we saw on sale a couple months ago. I wasn't aware of this auction that you're talking about haha

Haven't really been on ebay much lately, but I'm getting back into the swing of things. BUT damn, web series cards eh? =[

[legendslugia251]

lol the masaki set it was somewhat worth it but at the same time it wanst lol.they will pop back up eventually i know it.

lol been just browsing on ebay seen alot of japanese promos go for cheap price.yea an auction for complete southern island set neo 1 2 3 binder and like majority of the coro coro cards plus some VS series gym jungle rocket and the web cards the auction ended at like 105 shipped

[PokeFanatic88]

What that's insane? Lucky bastard to the person who won that auction. There's bound to be another "steal" auction out there but I hope it's as sweet as that one. But that's a pretty sick auction though.

[legendslugia251]

lol yea it was a very good auction but didnt feel like spending 100 on the cards since majority i have or something else
