The nine year old kid in me wants to rob u!! Awesome video
dru drives same here!!!
Seriously best base box I've ever seen. Amazing.
I beat the shit out of a kid when I was 9 for stealing my friends charizard. You must have been a 9 year old asshole
@@shoelesblondlady 😂😂😂
Baymax doesn't steal

This seems to be how he makes his living, so it was probably more of a sigh of a relief
It was 4 years ago so it didn’t hold the value it does today because of covid
he is a millionaire cleary...
7 years ago charizard psa 10 wasnt worth hundreds of thousands
8:18 I’ve never seen someone so unsurprised that they found a 1st edition charizard
Wow 🥱 lucky there 🥱 a 1st edition charizard
Shadowless too
I missed it because he opens the packs so fast and unexcited
@@huonbyrne-ockerby852 all english 1st edition base set is Shadowless.
@@barracuda6817 really
I like how this man is just pulling my entire mortgage out of these packs

And you believe this BS claim he bought that for that much 😂 what a fool its one of the biggest scams right now were do you think all these unopened boxes are coming from they look brand new immaculate condition someone is printing them again
Reaction to pulling a card worth 5 grand: "oh look at that"
It does have the worst centering ever
adan sheen I can’t tell
@@adansheen5164 Yea. That honestly might even get an 8
Definitely not worth 5 grand.
CanadianGamer420 yep considering it’s first edition and it’s a childhood favourite it goes from 5-8k.
rare Charizard 1st edition and nothing .. completing the starters trio and nothing .. This guy is dead inside ...
Yeah lol hes like over it
Rich peoples are kind a mausade
hello if the TM Star is black and not white next to the Pokemon logo on the packs does it mean the pokemon packs are fake? please help
He probably has so many of those under his bed.
He be like, "its a little shifted off to the right"
I remember when I was younger, we knew what pack had a hollow graphic because the pack was thicker, heavier.. I got my first Charizard at a gas station from a 10/7 dollar pack and I remember asking the cashier if I could feel the packs and I got to feel 4, picked the thicker heavier one and got a charizard.. one of the happiest moments ever
*goes golfing and hits hole in one* TCA: “Oh, that was neat.”
So True.
I could never get tired of watching older sets being opened, it brings back so many memories, and with the first neo set being my favorite❤
Dude, grow up.Either get in the game of getting your own favorite booster boxes and packs, or stop wasting your time on these videos.

@@CheezeLuis you lose money opening a box like these, like a lot of it, what the hell are you talking about? Im glad he opened it and took the sacrifice just so the fans could see it. Thank you!
@@CheezeLuis he doesn't gain anything from this cause why would he do a pack opening it's not his usual style you shouldn't judge him go buy a rare pack and open it for yourself
Cheeze Face idiot
12am, lemme just quickly watch this video of a dude open pokemon card packs for half an hour
That is how it goes!
Dont you mean 3am?
Is 12am right now. Lol
Currently watching it at 12am 🤣
I'm watching at 3am
Some things never change, holo cards in the venusaur booster pack. I always asked specifically for venusaur booster packs when I was a kid.
I've never heard of this theory. Last year I sold an artset of base set. One was heavy. It was the Venusaur.
8:20 first edition charizard
Is it weird that after like 20 years, I can still smell the cards when he opens them?
Nope!
YES! I was just thinking the same thing!
Lol that new card smell
U should get an mri, u got a tumor
They say smell is one of the most vivid of the senses that takes you back memory lane.
This is the most relaxing first edition pull I've ever seen, I love it!!!
I bought a box of holon phantoms about 5 years ago, paid 1,200. Now, goes for 15 k haa
Just starting to Collect shadowless 1st editions from the base set, watching this with so much jealousy, I’ve only ever once opened a full box, I was a kid and stole the money from my dad and went and bought a full box 😂 my collection was so good and I think I swapped them all at a car boot sale for a scooter, 15 years later and I’m going to have to invest thousands to get them back
I remember when Pokémon cards were considered contraband in elementary school. It was literally just as bad as having drugs. Teachers would confiscate them and you got sent to the principals office.
Our school banned them because they were getting stolen all the time.
Did you go to school in Nazi Germany?
So true! Same at my school. I think that happened after some kid got killed for his Pokémon cards at some random school. I think it was on the news, got kicked in the head. At least that was the story I always heard haha
We had similar things happen in australia. The biggest controversy my school had involved the little digimon tamagotchi devices. (Little rectangular ones with the cage around the screen)
Eric Gonzalez lmfaoooo yes
The sound of the wrappers being opened is satisfying
It is!
Asmr
That sounds is really getting me, its very tactile.
I love the sound packs from any card game open 😊
i love how he shot called the charizard!
There should be a picture of this guy under “stoicism” in a dictionary.
I like that
"So my wife is pregnant. That's to be expected though. The centering is sort of off but it'll probably grade a 9.5"
I wish!
Lulz
@@TheCharizardAuthority careful of child extort.
Ever so slightly.
Lucky! I was only a 6.5
"Hopefully last pack has dragonair"...last pack had dragonair😑
This dudes luck is amazing
*buys a lottery ticket* "this ticket will win for 1000 dollars...." *wins 1000 dollar lottery* "Oh, there it's, 1000 dollars......"
It was the rainbow error one too
I remember getting some of these way back. It was like Charlie in the chocolate factory opening a bar of chocolate
When you pulled that Dragonair out of the last pack, I literally cheered internally for you, lol Considering these 1st edition packs were probably run circa 1999, it’s crazy to think that, 20 years later, someone would be opening that *last* pack, and their inner child would be praying for a *very specific* card they wanted...and, voilà - they pulled it; that, and the fact it was the only one amongst the other 395 cards you pulled that day, is pretty awesome. Your inner child had an enormous victory this day; thanks for sharing the nostalgia trip and the enjoyment of opening these packs with us and our little selves.
Thanks for watching!
I literally had no problem sitting here and watching this 32 minute video.
T S. Same let’s do some DMT
Same here lol
Literally? You had no literal problem? Literally?
It went by so fast
I didnt know it was 32 minutes until this comment and I watched the whole way through.
Crazy how I had stacks of Pokémon cards as a kid not knowing how rare some can be
Same man. It makes me absolutely sick because I was a pro at trades. I had a nice set of holographics.
I know right I remember trading my collection for 10 buck back in 4th grade..... I think I’m going to be sick 🤢🤮
I sold evrything for 35 euro
I had a few thousand back 14 years ago
Yeah, i gave my collection away to my friends younger brother on his birthday. Fuckin hell...
pulls a 1st edition charizard "oo, looky here"
He got charizard, venusaur and BLASTOISE in 1 DISPLAY?!?!?!?!
Maurice Pflug AND RIACHU!
Daniel S. I was just saying Riachu because i remember playing yellow and Pikachu was considered a starter
That’s how they filled them you could get most of em in one booster box
Odds of getting a holo were 1 in 3 packs, that means in a box you get 12 holos. Base set had 16 holos total, so the odds of getting the whole starter trio are not too bad.
The hp number is as thin as.................................................................................................................. the hp number of fake pokemon cards and I know because I have seen them before
Absolutely amazing! The nostagia is real. I legitimately got goosebumps when you cracked the seal. Totally worth the watch! Some amazing pulls.. Appreciate you sharing this with us!
Felt so good watching this...reminds me of the first time I bought a pack and to my astonishment...I got a holographic Charizard!!! All the memories right here.
Charizard on pull 1 ?!
I remember having 100’s off these when I was in grade 5. 19 years ago. Lent them to my best friend. His mum decided that was the day they would run from an abusive husband/father. Neither him nor I knew this when his mum picked him up. I waved goodbye to him and my cards that day with a “see you Monday” as he got into the car and they drove off. Haven’t seen them or the cards since :((
Bummer dude
Move the bummer 😢😢😢
Why is this comment making me so sadd
It's nice to come back to this video after a while now that I know you're one of the biggest pokemon collectors in the world and probably has dozens of charizard 1st editions in your huge collection. The first time I watched it I was intrigued by the lack of enthusiasm, but now it all makes sense.
Just watched 32mins of my childhood being opened and loved every second of it. Even though I wasnt the one opening them I still got that excited feeling of what the cards could be .
I remember me and my brother getting our allowance and begging my mom to take us to the mall to get pokemon cards every Saturday and on this particular time the line was all the way outside the store and the owner of the store yells out "theres a guaranteed charizard in one of these packs" (on some willy wonka golden ticket shit lol) and if im not mistaking there was a original pack (blue) and a jungle pack (green) to pick from. So everybody in line is picking which packs they want to buy. Me and my brothers turn finally comes up (he's first) he picks 2 packs from the original and 1 pack from the jungle, i pick 1 from the original and 2 from the jungle pack. We wait to get in the car to open up our packs, I let him open his up first. 3 packs no charizard, I open up my 2 jungle packs first, then my blue pack and BAM CHARIZARD!!! Man was he SICK because that wouldve been his charizard if he never got that dumb jungle pack lmao. Now my story might be a little off seeing that im now 31 and this was yeaaaaaars ago but man how good it just felt going down memory lane!! Sorry so long winded lol.
Donzel Freshington omg same dude haha. Me and my brother used to beg our grandparents to go down to a gas station down the street to get a pack or two every weekend we went over there. Let me tell you, I’m glad I went so many times because I have almost all the original cards! Good times man haha
@@drock3309 definitely good times at one point I had all the orginal pokemon not even sure how I got them all especially with the odds we had lol
Donzel Freshington memories yo, im 32 so I feel you 😂
my brother and I went to some toy store that sold boosterpacks and each bought one. He pulled the Charizard and I pulled the Blastoise which worked out fine since we each got our favorites at that time
@@Sgballer5599 good times truely good times
First pack of pokemon cards I ever bought as a kid had a charizard in it, me not knowing the difference, a kid in my class convinced me to trade it for a blastoist. I think my luck has been bad ever since hahaha
Hologram packs always have more resistants when u lighty bend the pack at the stores. How i gotten all my holograms and worked for yugioh
These cards have been sitting in these packs since 1999!!!! Amazing and nostalgic!
Lol i still remember when i finally had blastoise in a pack ,that feeling so happy. Now i am 28 and never get that feeling again😑
Thanks for watching!
This is why I love watching your videos Rusty. Always so calm and collected. Even back then!
This is a truly awe-inspiring box, and the pulls absolutely made it worth breaking that very pricey seal. Congratulations - hopefully this video will be viewed over and over for years to come!
He's posting an extremely rare opening to his channel and has already received some graded cards back from PSA. I don't see the issue here.
I removed his vulgar comments from the channel if anyone reads through these and sees there are some missing.
+WakeRunCollapse I love your vids they are so good because it inspired me to make a KZhead channel!😘
+The Charizard Authority any websites you recommend you could buy an unlimited base set booster box for good price or decent :) ???
this is a day that will be long remembered.
the printing defect should make it even more valuable. shadowless charizard holy shit
maybe but the real true money is in the unopened booster box! that he just opened lol
Herman Pesina a mint shadowless charizard is £750 so no lol
It's not really a "defect", it's just a clamp mark from when they we cut.
+The Creepiest Of Pasta it can be worth anything you want it to be that doesn't mean someone will pay that. I can go on ebay and sell it for $10,000 that doesn't mean anything unless someone buys it lol
+The Creepiest Of Pasta an unopened box of any old set would be worth more than the cards inside. That's how boxes work
This video is so old that he doesn't do over the top reactions and crazy dubstep when he pulls a charizard lol. Totally a compliment.
What worries me most is how calm he was after getting such great pulls from this booster box.
and we have a CLEE fairy.
Better than cla-fairy !
R K 9
TCA Gaming man, didn’t you ever watch the show? Nobody calls it “Clee-fairy”... awesome cards.
EnD Cygnus Yh Americans don't speak prober English
Marmax he watched the show but he was making fun of the guy
I'll never forget as a kid for my birthday my grandpa bought me 3 little booster packs... In those packs I pulled Holo Charizard, Mewtwo and Blastoise. 1st edition. Insane. It was impossible as a kid to understand how valuable those would be one day. It's a shame that I lost interest in Pokemon as I got older and eventually just lost these cards.
Apart of me died in the inside 😢
Omg same brotha, had the most unreal.cards and I just gave them away to my cousin who destroyed them
Bro i sold a book of holos at a yard sale for 20 bucks i had the hole set pretty sure all in a book in good condition
sameoldg4life0689 that was pretty stupid
@@sameoldg4life0689 if everyone kept them they'd be worthless, thats just how it works.
some of those cards are worth over $3,000. you wouldn't be able to tell from his reaction to finding them.
He probably spent way more on the box compared to the cards he packed
Pretty sure this guys a sociopath. How do you pull a 1st edition charizard and not have a reaction lol.
@@shirleylau5 hes not that guy with like crazy reactions and the vid is 3 years old, nowadays PSA 8 (which that one probably is are worth like 3500$ or something like that but back then in was like 1000§ maximum, and there were a lot of base set booster boxes (not that many 1.editions but still a few) so it was not that crazy like its nowadays
If the charizard is psa 10 its $55k
@@dxvexrs I would say more like 40-45k, but remmeber how old the vid is, back then PSA 10 charizard was more like 7k
Crazy watching this 7 years later. People will probably be watching it 10, 20, 30 years from now...
I remember me and my brother going to my dads every 2 weeks and on the Saturday morning walking 2 miles half of it through the woods just to buy 2 packets each with the £10 our dad gave us. If only we New how much they would be worth now days lol
I had most of these cards as a kid didn't treat them well.Wish I did now.
saaaaame
I was never this lucky as a kid.
So crazy to see the first original pokemon cards still packaged! My brother and I still have the first 151 in a binder just sitting there. We started when we were 7 and 8 years old and now we're old as shit lol
Would love to purchase that off of you if you're selling
"so heres a CLEE fairy"
That part actually pissed me off the most. They fuckin sing their name in Mt. Moon in the anime for Christ's sake
He got really rare cards from some of those packs and he didn't sound happy at all
Lol foreals, I'd be screaming my lungs out once I pulled out any of the holo starter Pokemon lol
+Street_baller24 same id be crying but something amazing I have a 1st edition halo venusaur and its in japenesse it's super lit
he has a shit ton of pokemon stuff though, a big store on ebay.
Lol he's the exact opposite of Ando from UnlistedLeaf..
Did you hear the way he pronounced clefairy? That alone told me he's obviously doing this for business and not for the nostalgia, which is totally fine. Do what you have to do to pay the bills.
The sound of him shuffling the cards is so soothing. Even opening up the packs brings back the memories....
this video aged like fine wine
Pulls 1st Edition Base Set Charizard... Doesn't freak out screaming. True adult collector here. Good job mate.
absolutely amazing video thank you for sharing!
Ninetails was my very first shiny from my very first booster pack. Wish I still had those cards... mom sold them all at a garage sale thinking I wouldn't care.

Nice!
When the back of the second pack ripped I gasped. Great video though, love the base set artwork and this video gave me waves of nostalgia.
Some people are just more chill than others haha
Always so calm and collected! I'd be flipping my shit if I were pulling those cards.

I remember as a kid buying my first pack at the store I got a Charizard and my friend go the Raichu in his pack. All the big kids at the store was asking us to trade em, but naah. Was legendary.
Nice!
"wow... lookie there... first edition charizard" compared with unlisted leaf's reaction " *_--__**--__-----!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!* "
i cringed at the way he opened those packs.
TrainTrax when he didn't to the trick... 😵
Seriously, talks about getting cards graded, yet went at the booster wrapping in a way that could have bent the heck out of the cards. Bollocks.
KingBowser 183 whoops thx
But it doesn't. Cards had great grade!
But it doesn't. Cards had great grade!
I've opened hundreds of packs of base set and I've never personally pulled a Charizard. Opens 4 packs and pulls a Charizard, "oh lookie" 😂
Only like 5 kids at my entire school had a charizard 🤨
You probably buy EBay packs, that’s why
I'm not sure I can handle all this nostalgia at once
Please get back to us on whether you were able to handle it as I myself am very interested in the results.. thanks.
I'm gonna bust out my old Gameboy and play the pokemon trading card video game.... it's really fun still surprisingly
*shoeless
that game was the shit foreal
they made a sequel with the rocket expansion cards that wasn't released in the u.s. someone did a full japanese to english translation of the rom if you search for it on google and there are also used japanese carts for sale online as well. i highly recommend it if you still enjoy playing the original.
@@CamxCam. Hhahahhahaha
ROMS . THIS GAME. It almost feel just as good as opening cards.

just look it up... 1 edition base set box 9999,99$
u need to look for the 1st edition mark on the down right side of the box :S

I know what you mean bro hahahah
same thing at my school lmao
Genuinely surprised you didn't slice your hand open at the beginning of the video with those dangerous box opening techniques
Lol - people who do things like "always cut away" are the people you see slicing their hands. Terrible advice I see so often repeated online.
@@TheCharizardAuthority Yeah still a pretty poor tool for box opening. Try a box opener. Never heard of tape being tough before. Definitely your blade.
First edition shadowless/green-winged charizard... "Wow looky there" LOL
1st edition SHADOWLESS charizard and he doesnt rlly care
You guys perfectly opening the packs are making it super easy for people to scam. Just hope you know. Even if you mark it, it can be washed. Stop selling empty packs and empty boxes!!! You are making it possible for fakes
facts
The “oh look” just casual reaction to a first ed zard too 🤣
Am I just trippin or do pokemon cards have such a certain and nice smell...
They do!
Yeah they have such a nice smell
I save the top cards to play and smell them whenever I want without damaging my cards lol

what it grade
+Josh Asunto He uploaded a video of it
+Kevin Thompson ok what was it graded
graded 2
jackaboy jr that's some high quality cancer right there
8:24 I would be screaming my head off if I pulled that!
I had the reprint charzird from xy evolutions I did the same thing
Exactly!! I wouldn't care who heard me lol
Possibly cause he knows it's fake.. let's be real they go for 20k without the inflation jump in a ps9. A ps10 which he will not have due to print flaw. A legit psa grade 10 can go for 40k. A bcg graded can go for 50k cause psa is easy graders compared to BCG. This whole pokemon stonks prices going to 200k for a charizard 1st edition psa 10. It's ridiculous. Either he knows the cards are fake or he just doesn't care that it was a repacked edition box that he may have did. Also to note you would not open a 1st edition legit booster box unless you're like Poke rev or LeonHart with 1,000,000s to kill on pokemon. Usually these guys have like 2-3 boxes and they do not mind opening 1.

do you think they are real ?

How do u tell if its shadowless or not ? Isn't the lettering lighter like these are in this box ?
Man I remember growing up and collecting these I didn’t have any idea and I wish I would of kept them cause I had a lot of 1st edition cards and I had 3 1st edition charzard
I appreciate how cool and real you are. So many other channels act SO over the top and really ham it up.
The way you use that knife is absurd.
PREACH! I was kinda hoping he'd cut his hand open and learn a lesson.
Was cruising through here just to see if anyone else commented on it 😂
Foreal I cannot believe someone would actually use a knife like he did, I guess product instructions are for people like him
OK, I see what you're saying. Man was cutting towards himself 😳
It is crazy how many people on here have no idea how to use a knife.
I'm just a box, inside of a box, inside of another box! Lol Just found this channel and love it and these vintage videos. You do a great job!
Thanks!
How much do these base set boxes go for ? Out in the uk it’s pretty hard to find
I would have kept at least 3 packs unopened 1 of each blastoise charzard and venosaur.
As soon as he said "Clee-fairy." I'm done I stopped watching lol
Better than Cla-fairy haha
What I hated about the TCG was the holos scratched so easily. I'd barely get them out of the booster pack and they'd already have scratches.
This was my second time watching this and I just realized it was also shadowless. Great box opening, 1st edition shadowless.
1st editions are all shadowless mate, cheers ;)
damn charizard venusaur and blastoise all in one my dream cards as a kid
dud i have all ex i dare u to win at me
Having charizard, blastoise, and venusaur is like the Egyptian god cards from yugioh
I remember by parents got me a first edition charizard for Christmas when Pokemon was super popular. I was nine or something. It came in a special protector and everything. It ended up disappearing and I thought I lost it. A week later my best friend at the time showed me how he had gotten one as well. It took me years to realize that he had stolen it from me 😫😂. I was so innocent and never thought my best friend could do that to me at the time.
Kids are mean! I had lots stolen from me as well
I had so many cards stolen over the years. Always chalked it up to the karma of fleecing every kid within a 5 mile radius. I did things that would make a sleazy used salesman blush. Lol glad that part of me disappeared as i grew up.
I had the exact same thing with a Lego Jango Fett, I stupidly told my friend it was exclusive to a £50 set.
I've had similar situations
It’s Glo did you steal that crap back as an adult??! Hunt him down lol
Omg there goes that pack *proceeds to open the packs with lots of force*
If there is an energy in the first or second spot you got a holographic.
