Complete Unown collection!
Well a few of you remember my search for Unown R to complete my Unown collection right? Well, Cardhaus's order came in last week and gave me the rest of my unown cards, along with Unown A from a Uk seller!

So, without further ado, the complete English unown original card set ^__^





I really have to explain that my card collection is nothing short of WEIRD. I mean, I dont have any sort of trend when it comes to collecting cards. I either like the pokemon, like the art, or like the idea of having them all. I like Mew, so I'm collecting Mew cards, and most random Japanese cards I get I just like the art of them. And the whole 'to have them all' sort was where the unown cards fit in. I've always wanted them all. Same with the original 53 promo's too XD

Expect a few more posts from me with bizzare collections in it XD

Unown R was never released in English, that's why you'll never find it, and I had to get the japanese version ^__^ That's why a lot of people who wanted this complete set fought really hard over that card XD

Yeah, see my dream was to get the ORIGINAL set of unown cards, since the Unown Forces are just so easy to get (Cardhaus has them all) and I prefer originals to later released sets. So yes, what I meant to say that the original Unown R was never released in english, just as Unown J was only ever released as a promo before Unown Forces came along :)

Ahhh I understand ^^ sorry tis late and I was just like "huh?" xD

Either way...it's still a kick ass collection =D! (and between you and me...the japanese R is WAYYY cuter than the english one XD)

If you ever decide to collect newer unowns...I have some ^^

No worries ^^

Thanks a lot :) And yes, I agree the cartoon Unown cards (J and R) are cuter ^^

Thanks a lot for the offer but I'll pass :) Unless you have Unown '!' and '?' ? I would like those two :)

Aww, that's sweet of you, although at the moment I am focusing on completing my collection, so please don't take it the wrong way if I say thank you very much, but I'll pass? I just don't want to have to, you know, get extra cards and in the future I forget they were a gift and sell them, that would make me feel horrible >.<

So thanks VERY much for the generous offer, but I'll have to pass for now :)

There was a time when I wanted to collect the Unown cards too, but then I sort of refined my tastes to mostly ultra rare/promo cards only, and had to make a drastic cut in my collection, including my Unown :(
But it's awesome that you actually did this :D!

Lol I see XD You know looking over your collection, I noticed it was really all over the place! Is that like that purposely or are you going to organise it? :)

Thanks a lot ^__^

I hope to organize it ONE DAY, but there are so many cards that it'll seriously take a long time. That and the moment I get new cards in it'll throw everything out of whack. I do try to keep Shining/LvX/Ex cards up front, though.

Ah I see XD That happened to me a lot until what I did was brought a box of card sheets to put in my folder, and left lots of spaces in it. My folder was FULL of spaces before I began collecting again last year. ^^ I found that kept the whole organization problem quite easy to maintain.

My folder goes:
- Holo's non legendary
- Holo's legendary
- Eeveelution collection
- Unown Collection
- Mew Collection
-'W' Stamp promo's
- Japanese promos (you could divide this into ANA, Coro Coro, Event if you wanted to)
- Wizards of the coast promo set
- Trainer Rares
-Pokemon Rares
- Uncommon/Common cards
- Misc. Cards

All with extra pages! :D

*sniff* It's so beautiful... It brings tears to my eyes. T-T

-Okay, not really. But it's still very awesome. XD

I wanted to do that, myself. If I ever do the whole Pokédex thing with my cards, I'm gonna have to get one of each Unown too.

Awww ^^

Thanks :) If you want to, you'll need to get Unown A off E-bay and the rest off Cardhaus for the cheapest option. The cards there are only like 30c or something :) Although you'll need to get R from the Unown Forces set.
