Whats the rarest card you collected?

[LauraMarx]

yes and I still do! My rarest card is a 1st ed Shining Gyarados :) This is a very rare card, I discovered recently. I was pretty shocked! Its goes for like, 150 bucks currently. But I will never give it away!

With collecting I mostly like to collect cards from certain artists. My favourites are Sumiyoshi Kuzuki

thanks for MHO!

[xcassiopeia]

Yes I did, together with my older brother. I can't remember the collection though. It was too much and my father gave a part of our collection to other kids and sold them, unfortunately.

[Bellibooo]

I had about a million of those haha! I didn't know you could play with them, so I just collected them. I remember that I liked the shiny ones with horses on.

[aficionado]

I didn't, but my younger brother did. He was a huge fan of those cards!

[madhatters4]

no it was a little past my childhood but my brother definitely did

[Prof_Don]

I sure did collect Pokemon cards... and I still play the Pokemon Trading Card Game online these days on occasion.

The rarest card I had was a shiny Ditto. :)

[linkywinky]

Fuck yes I did. YuGiOh too.

Don't have the foggiest idea of what the rarest one was anymore. It's been years.

[RationalMale]

I did... some. Rarest was probably a ninetales or vulpix.

I preferred the gameboy games, though, by a million miles.

[melmel4ever]

Omg yes I had SO many it was nuts... yet, I never exactly knew how to play the game lol. And no, I don't collect them anymore.

[BertMacklinFBI]

I did. shit was so addicting. i had so many rare cards i sold most of them.

[Klaatu51]

[ArabianPwincess197]

Nope but I had a pokemon bear who's cheeks lighted up red, and he talked when you pressed his hands

[KiaTate]

I didn't, it wasn't a big thing here like in the USA, there was a group of Pokemon kids at every school but they were kinda... alternative. lol

[2014raser]

I bought a few sets of cards one time, but I got really bored with it. Later I started collecting Bakugans.

[chocolateismylover]

My brother collected them, I just played with his cards.

I'm not really a fan of anymore.

[puncakegirl]

HELL YEA I still have those cards. Great days

[blondfrog]

Haha yes I did and Yugioh too.

[HorrorFan]

Nope. I played Magic: The Gathering as a kid.

[LauraMarx]

I was the only kid in school who had Magic cards. So I felt very exclusive and cool but it meant I couldn't play it :(

[HorrorFan]

Aww. It's a fun game. Still heavily played today.
