It's disappointing that the English cards don't have the same borders as the Japanese. The shiny borders create a unique card which could justify the price. It doesn't seem as high quality without it

I think the sparkly borders on the Japanese version give them a little extra touch, but the English cards still look amazing. Thanks for opening this and sharing with us, it's super cool!

i like how the Japanese version is more visibly pleasing and the Pokémon are magnified a little more with that holo border is just amazing.

What a box, 400 dollars is crazy expensive, but every single card in the deck is amazing. The holo pattern is so unique and beautiful.

I love both! The yellow borders are so nice! But those holo borders on the Japanese cards hit different. And the difference in how vibrant the English and Japanese cards is insane!

That was exactly their intention. Each card has the border it had at original printing. Hence the switch card having a different border

Japanese colours are much more vibrant but having the yellow borders gives it that nostalgia and I definitely prefer that. Voltorb was an amazing card too!

I personally love the original borders! Also liked that they didn't put the base starters on the front- less likely to have damage. The contrast between the colors is just like the original base set unlimited english vs japanese base set. Love it.

Awesome! It must be super nostalgic to go back to these cards. Glad I’m here to watch!

Man what a holiday gift this could be for someone. I hope a lot of people have a good Christmas with this product!

I prefer the regular yellow borders. I remember as a kid wanting to get certain commons/uncommons in holo like Charmander (I didn't understand only rares got holo 😅) so this just slaps. Fulfills that desire from 20+ years ago!

I like they kept the original borders on these! Although the boxes are so expensive I doubt I’ll pick one up

Wish I had the opportunity to open this myself and see how sick these cards look in person. They look so good!

These are so cool just not what I'm looking for in pokemon! Just rather buy packs, blisters, booster boxes, to complete my sets. Love your content and what you do for us poke heads!

I was not going to buy this set but I think I will now! Just looking at the upgraded holos they did is outstanding, these are how the newer cards should look too, I get they want to go in a different direction with Scarlet and Violet but I personally think they should do a full new set with the classic card designs it be so nostalgic ❤

crazy collection box!! i think they are now pricing based on some of the past collection box resale values... crazy stuff!! WOULD LOVE TO OPEN WITH MY SON!! good luck everyone

This is just insane, while I don't think I will ever get this box, but it is so nice just seeing you open it up and go through it.

I feel ya man if I was gonna shell out 4 to 500 it would be on the og versions not jus another reprint they are kool n beautiful cards but I prefer the old 1s I had as a kid. This might be kool 4 collectors with a lot of cash 2 throw around unfortunately that ain't me gotta save up 4 stuff.

Very cool to see these beautiful artworks! But you can see the Japanese big 3 the Pokémon are a bit more “zoomed in” than the English side by side. Preference for me are those sparkly Japanese borders, the feel is a bit more classy and upscale than the English version.

Gotta say, Rev when I first seen these I was disappointed the English cards weren’t getting the shiny borders. But after seeing them on camera I prefer the English prints for the more classic look as you mentioned which means a lot to me as I started collecting at 10 with Base set and prefer the traditional look that’s just a little more spicy.

I have always like the Japanese cards with the Silver boarders. I am glad to see English move in that direction. Holo on the edges would make more sense for the price, but all the cars look sick.

For the price you're paying, I'm glad it does feel like you've got a premium product. Really cool seeing all those holos. I think I prefer the yellow borders just a little more than the sparkly ones.

Just getting back into collecting. This box takes me back

Bro ever since you brought up the writing on the bottom of the card I realized it’s on every card not just those and I now I can’t unsee it lol

Just preordered for myself. Now that I’m older I’ve been waiting for a box like this to have all the base set originals in one. $400 is a small price to pay to relive my childhood. It’ll be a great Christmas present to open for myself. Excited!

If you sent some cards off to get graded would having that slight bend effect the grading?

Voltorb and electrode are the first two cards I bought from this box, I always thought that electrode should have been holo when I was a kid and now finally seeing it holo is impressive!

Dude I almost want to buy it. These cards are breathtaking

$400 is more than I can imagine spending on most things

Magic 30 should've been like this. The decks, the layout, everything. $400 for something really, really cool as opposed to $1K for a few packs of sadness.

I can’t wait for this! The Japanese version was so nice so I’m looking forward to see what the English version has to offer! 😍

Now I'm really excited to get my box in. Thanks Nick.

Man I love this!!! I just bought one of these I’m so excited to get one

This box is so cool, I love that they included all the eras

i love the borders on Japanese a lot more. but still cool to see both types

English man. the yellow brings back that nostalgia for those cards like Squirtle, and Wartortle. Cards we had as kids but NOW they are holographic, it makes them feel a little more special. The Japanese cards are quite attractive there is no doubt there, it brings out the "Ooooooh Shiny!" in me yet i still love to see that solid yellow border. When i was a kid and the EX cards started coming out, I collected a few but I stopped buying them because I didn't like the lines at the bottom of the card that you could swipe into the E reader thing.. stupid me though, because if i wouldn't have stopped i'm sure i would have a decent collection of classic cards. I'm half tempted to buy this just to hang on to for 20 years

The nostalgia is strong with this one

The Japanese are obviously ideal. I’ve already picked up a few singles from the Japanese for my binder collection, they’re so so stunning. Perhaps the best Onix card ever!!

Love your channel Rev. And when you and Ryan do collabs theyre always great.

This product is really nice. I hope they can come out with more products like this but at a lower price.

Glad people like you are here to open these expensive sets

These boxes are soo cool would love to open one myself!

Wow this was very interesting, it’s insane how the Japanese and the English version are different, I wish the quality was up to par on the Japanese.

I like both language versions but the Japanese is definitely my favorite. Thanks for opening this for us to see!

Everytime I see that original base set Squirtle. I always think its foaming at the mouth and about to die.

Man this is really cool, wish I still had all my old school card, but this is amazing….

Both sets have the positives. The Japanese set with the shiny borders but thd english set looks more old school, really going for the classic look ❤ . I'm not sure I'd part with 400 quid for the set.

Nice to see the English and Japanese cards comparison. The color is so much nicer on the JP cards

Thanks for sharing both!

13:56 at least they didn't print the cards with a different back. I much prefer the discreet text

Every card being a holo is so cool to me. I think the Japanese sparkling boarders are better in my opinion because this is a special set/purchase so they do it for the zing and attractive matter. The classic yellow is nostalgically awesome. However, there is something to a special set and the zing it gives for the japanese version.

Love the channel, brings back my favorite childhood memories.

From the standpoint of nostalgia as an American consumer, I don’t mind the yellow borders because it’s closer to the way they were originally printed in english

So many amazing products this year, hard to choose which one to buy.

Yo the Japanese Venus is zoomed in more, taking up more of the frame, in the Japanese version!!

wow can't wait to get my hands on this! wish it was as nice as the japanese one

isn't it just really cool how Mitsuhiro Arita has been one of the main artists for the TCG since the 1st gen? another veteran would be yuka morii, which I (am pretty sure) worked on the expedition set.

I love the holo borders! Very cool product!

I WISH I could afford that box. It would be a dream come true to open something like that

Whilst I love the English I think Japan have once again got it in the bag. They just look incredible. I bought the 3 starters in japanese and I can’t wait for them to arrive 🎉 definitely gonna buy the 3 big guys at some point

Holy crap, I didn't know there was another version. I'm getting one of these.

Eu amei essa nova box ❤❤❤❤

Just opened my box, I loved it but I couldn't help feeling slightly disappointed with the lack of "Pokemon" cards especially for £399.

awesome vid as always also love the vids with pokevault and CTR you guys should do more videos together

I prefer the shiny border look. But the holo English cards still look pretty good.

I love the look of the Japanese cards just wish i could read them. Great content thank you

The cards look a little more vibrant for the Japanese cards because of the holo foil behind the art, since the Japanese cards have holo borders

Thanks for doing this opening! Didn’t know if I wanted to invest or not😅

Kinda wish the shiny borders made it to the English version, but honestly won’t be paying that kind of price either way

Very cool presentation, love seeing the reprints!

Fan of the shiny boarders, but do like background holos

The Japanese sets always get all the cool stuff. I wish it would all be released the same!

Absolutely love the holo patterns on these but it is disappointing that the borders are different.

Yellow borders is og way . There both good like then both English Japanese .. love the zards favorite card

Alright the yellow boarders are like Pokémon’s classic look for their cards, also the cards that do have a sparkle edge are that much More special so I like it just how they are 💛

Pretty cool, not sure it's worth the pricetag. But love the nostalgia!

I definitely like the color contrast on the Japanese better but I like the border on the us cause it give’s more of an og feeling
