Did you give up on the lorcana elsa?

What you end up doing eith your lorcana psa 10 elsas?

Your video inspired me to create my own video with more in depth information post the Magi Nation Kickstarter. We knew about your video during the Kickstarter and I referenced and linked your video in my video.

This video deserves more recognition! I like it.

Im NOT lying; Metazoo was just sold a few days ago toma SERIOUS buyer for 2MIL . I repeat , I AM NOT LYING Metazoo was just sold, along with all the remaining physical product

Magi Nation on GBC as a jrpg-tcg was a hidden gem game, sadly it didn't had the mainstream cover that Monster Rancher or Digimon had to compete Pokemon because two mistakes: 1.- Bring an animation after the first TCG was on the tightrope because Yu Gi Oh and a lot of anime TCG were competing in the market(2007-2010) and was on the tight rope. 2.-Cancel the GBA game to a generic PDA Game(Did you know which Pokeclone was better and my favorite? Robopon who ended in GBA with a sequel). If the reboot decide to sell full deck and not booster packs isn't a problem to see them as a simple card board game.

What is your go to top loader brand? If you don’t mind sharing

I buy from “PWCC” if the price is right and withdraw after the fees lower since I like the cards in hand at some point. BTW, where is the playmat from? (looks custom)

The vault has its uses but service speed is extremely slow. Took about a month to submit it in the PSA vault after delivering and 3 weeks to ship it out.

Do you use a vault service for your cards and/or comics?

I think they said some areas are going to be getting plastic and some will get glass

Yes!!

The cups are cool but eating McDonald’s is like eating tasty poison lol it’s soooo good but 30 min later feel like crap and if you look at he ingredients is scarier than Black Mass mwuahahahaha.

My boy Frankly is not limited to what he will make a collectible video on haha. I loved it. #ThatCreativeLife

Are you collecting these McDonalds collector cups? Which one do you want the most?

Use of AI is such a buzzkill for me in any TCG. Another game that I won’t name has a talented art team that I would LOVE to support but when I go to it’s website ALL of the artwork on the homepage is 100% AI art despite having cards drawn by real talented artists they could feature instead…come on.

A.I. can look amazing, and visually, along with some good gameplay, is all you need for casual play with friends. But once a company puts A.I. into its art, it loses something. It's connection with another person (the artist). And it's collectibility, becomes zero. Human beings are about being connected to one another. And that extends even to the art on a piece of cardboard. So, once you take the humanity out of the art, you're left with an empty shell, that may look great on the surface, but you can sense, you can feel something is missing. It's human connection. What some might call its soul. And that will instinctively, through human nature, turn you off. It's like robots they craft to look human. They may indeed look like us, but something is always off. It's mannerisms, its movements, the way it carries itself. Whether you call it a soul, or a conscience, or a heart, it may take the form of the most beautiful human on earth, but it's never, and could never, be whole. Always having a missing piece. It's humanity completely absent for the sake of something merely artificial. Human art, even bad art, still has what could be called a soul. And A.I. art, while beautiful, has no soul. A creation of superficial beauty that's only skin deep. So, whether a card game has that human connection, or not, through its art, will determine if anyone buys their product, and most importantly, collects it. For a card game that has no secondary market, is always doomed to fail.

Just got my Kickstarter backer box and foil uncut sheet from Booster Brat!!

I ended up backing just for the Sakura deck (pink deck) and Sakura uncut sheet because this deck did not have an AI entanglement like the other 3 do. What do you think of the use of AI in Kickstarter products?

My buddy tried ro sell his to a flea market Dealer and was offered thirty five Dollars This thing has no resale value.

my friend tried to sell his to a flea market Dealer He was offered 35:00 There is no resale value for this

The whole thing is a slow burn sketchfest. It’s just some over obsessed fans that are helping clear out the old storage units some of the members of the old company had. Everyone gets their cut of the money that comes in from all these “recently unearthed cards” and the kickstarter never had actual plans. It’s long finished and past goal but they’re still trying to sell off their cards on the discord “because we can’t afford black core” or “we need another booster box unlocked… come on guys”. They got some cheap promos made up with no core and not even the actual back of card files and the cards look horrible. They promise “it’s will be better in a year when the new cards are made…. If we have more money… anyone need any cards?” It’s a joke honestly. And I love how they’re selling a map that the fan who made it admits in the discord “Disclaimer: It is an old map, and some of the locations labeled do not align with the fiction.” 😂😂😂😂 it’s like “thanks for the money chumps” some fans even created alil LLC that near mimics the name of the old company to try and make people who half remember the game that it’s official. They only got approval from “the old company” a couple rich guys who want their storage units cleared for them, to use the name and only of they get a cut of whatever is sold and don’t actually give enough of a dooks about this game to donate a dollar to the kickstarter themselves 😂

do you think this a good time to buy vintage pokemon cards? I kinda just want some of my childhood favorites.

Rob Burns also just said he's stepping away from YT.

I think it's good to take a break from content creating if you don't have anything that excites you yet. I've been pretty dormant since Metazoo closed down but I'm recently learning how to use a new editing software and making a potential video about Altered TCG. Nothing else in the TCG space like you mentioned is that exciting right now and a lot of hype has died down. I hope you find your vibe again with TCGs since I always enjoy watching your videos. The market will bounce back eventually and I'm sure we'll see a lot more of each other online then!

The money is no longer in the trading card space and so people are running for the next thing. Between that and the economy going south people just don't have motivation or interest to buy stuff. I play the game I buy so I have a bit of a cushion and not much has changed for me but I see people really not being motivated at all if they just collected.

I would say do what you love! The tcg community is in a rocky place right now and a lot of people who started their channels a few years back are starting to focus less on cards since the hype isn’t there anymore. It kinda reminds me of pre-pandemic where I would walk into a target or Walmart and pokemon cards were on clearance consistently. Even myself, I am just following where my muse goes and work on my projects as they inspire me. But for you I do hope you find what inspires you!

Start speed running on Nintendo switch Nintendo World Championships…so much fun.

Make content you enjoy watching yourself, and if anyone else likes it that’s a bonus. Top 10 Pokémon started that way, then began focusing on views and then quit because he didn’t enjoy his own content anymore. UA-cam is a hobby just like collecting cards, if you’re worried about what other people think then you’ll burn out for sure.

What are your thoughts on the hobby and questions you have for me?

Personally I love the black and gold, as well as the black white because it looks clean and modern as well as focuses on the artwork like you mentioned since most modern tcg collectors enjoy the artwork. I think the black and white works for the broad audience and collectors since that color combination can work with any other colors, speaking as a designer. But I can also understand the appeal of the blue color since it speaks to their branding and looks like something that came out of a library, similar to PSA's red coloring. They look like they're museum specimen's and should be handled as such in a sense. Depending on the young population joining the market, I can see CGC overtaking PSA submissions with they combine the new design, affordable pricing, and fast turnaround times. But PSA does have a lot of great design going for it as well, so we'll see 🤷

Hey Frank! Equinox actually gave an extra uncut rare sheet in there - so total 7 uncut sheets! I'm selling one of my uncut sheets to my LGS that's supporting Altered and keeping the other 6. Still deciding what to do with the other uncut sheets and signed art prints. May sell them as a bundle later on, frame a few of the uncut sheets for my collection, or just sell each sheet separately if they do become more in demand after official release. I don't think the boxes will explode in value like Sorcery did with the Rudy pump but I don't think the boxes will lose value either. I'll be selling some of my KS boosters to recoup some money back but not in a hurry to sell them since Altered did say they are going to ramp up their marketing (English and French) closer to official release. They've said marketing now before products aren't even readily available now would not bring in much hype - I agree with their plan. Here's hoping 🤞

I got one too.. I threw it out because I already got my pre-order money back via chargeback. Not really in the mood to get involved, send out information, etc just to be a part of w/e proceedings there are. My assumption is that most pre-orders will go unrefunded even post sale, not even sure it's worth it to follow the letter instructions.

I bought one of these letters as a tcg history memento. Love the history of tcgs and I think Zoo will go down in infamy.

KBDxTOKYO is a BOSS UA-camr!

Appreciate the shout out brother !!! Glad to see another metazoo video from you. 💯🙏🏼 keep up the great work

Did you receive this letter? Are you filing a proof of claim?

What do you think about the CGC label change?

What's your favorite eyeglass frame brand?

I think Altered might just stick to Europe, specifically France. French companies on KS tend to stick to that region and considering 7k of their 9k backers are in France, I think it would be a good idea to focus on that. A good recent example would be Rise TCG. That's another French game but they had way more backers in the U.S. and they still don't market anything in the English language. They're backed by Asmodee but Asmodee just took on a ton of debt and with their other tcg Star Wars floundering, I would bet Altered is DOA. If they so something really special on release and explain their system really well, I think they have a future.

Will Altered TCG prove to be successful?

Congrats. BTW how do you find out about these obscure cards? Wikis, forums…?

What have you been on the lookout for on eBay?

6:22 We shall see.

I see nothing wrong with nudity.

Podrias hacer una demostración con correa de cuero negro como quedaría?😅

I think the full metal g shock b5000 is a better option than this

Awesome man thanks

I’m thinking about just doing a sealed collection of booster boxes. Seems like the safest and most guaranteed

Nice. I started playing Pokémon tcg with based set and fossil set, jungle set
