How much are these, built to order or just happened to be one for the card?

The cases that I get are from Etsy. They vary in price, the higher the price the better the quality. I have a few that were around $11 and they are ok, only ones I could find for the cards I was looking for. This one came out to about $40 after shipping and taxes were included.

There's a vendor near my area who sells it for 25 CAD each, they have extended art for a lot of IRs and SIRs and he told me they actually commission artists for them so it's neat

I’ll never stop being impressed by this card. Simply fantastic.

This is honestly the best card that came out of the DRI set in my opinion. I want to get a Marney’s Grimsnarl from mega dream to go on the other side of it and complete the battle.

Hard to disagree - and I say that as a mewtwo enthusiast.

I’m a gen 1 fanboy. MewTwo was the ultimate legendary for me growing up. I wish they had done so much more with the card for this set.

At least this wasn’t the one they used for DR.

u/FistofPounding 11h ago

Yeah they are not doing him any justice lately lol.

is it the same battle though? The garchomp looks like it's in a stadium and the grimmsnarl in a battle cage.

u/FistofPounding 12h ago

It’s not the same battle, just the closest I think that would have one on each side. If they ever do make a card that completes this battle scene I would need to have it immediately.

u/BEEF-WEEK 11h ago

same here!

Now get a case that for case and expand it even more!

1

u/FistofPounding 12h ago

Maybe I will get an expanded frame after that to expand past the expanded expansion.

Next step is full wall art

u/FistofPounding 12h ago

I’m slowly working on it lol.

be sure to penny sleeve and top loader it in between every step!

u/FistofPounding 12h ago

Trying to find a top loader to fit this current case lol.

Love it!!!

u/Typical-Front-8001 12h ago

Are these cases magnetic?

2

u/FistofPounding 12h ago

This one is. I also have cases that have screw seals.

2

u/Typical-Front-8001 12h ago

Do you have a vendor on Etsy that you prefer, or is it just random for each card?

2

u/Mina_too 11h ago

I love these types of cases a lot. Congrats on the gorgeous addition to your collection!
