This card's legacy:

This card's story is close to heart, it started as a base set Blastoise from a local card shop that I picked up in the hopes of making the rarest custom card on the planet. I'd always collected them in the past and no doubt you all know the legacy of this card and how no one has dared touch it with paint... until now.

Masterclass artist Lunumbra went to work, meticulously extending the original art of this classic into what you see here.

After carefully making an UHD scan of this, I'm now able to add the original attacks and ability BACK onto the card and give everyone something they never knew they needed. Enjoy the first extended art Base Set with text! Can you imagine if Pokemon had done this with Base Set :O

Support your favorite card extender and blow your friends minds when they see this card in your collection.

Artists: Lunumbra & Ken Sugimori

Each card starts as a standard Pokemon card. I layer on a special mix of adhesive holographic vinyl making it foil, next, using a transparently printed rendition of this art I adhesive the card stock and the imagery together and cut down to shape. Voila! You now have, the greatest proxy/custom Pokemon card ever to use in home play!

You are paying for the supplies, and labor to create a custom card using a legal, actual Pokemon card as a canvas for custom made art.
