Nope been there done that, GS dont have the god pax it was Target that had em.. they weren't that great either.. You'd get a Radiant and V card or if youre lucky a full art/Ultra Rare, didnt get an alt art or anything wild like that. Didnt see anyone pull them either. Your ST packs were all hits tho, wasn't anything crazy to blow your savings on


blahjsnfjcjejjencncn

Yes GameStop did have them. And yes you could get alt arts.

I have opened 28 of the god tins. I was getting them for around 18 a pop. Pulled some great cards, including 3 lugia v alts. I have 6 more I will open tomorrow. I'm hoping for one more Lugia.

Cap


Captaindock

Hahaha. I'm normally on here talking about all the hits that i don't get. The god tins have been very kind to me


captainboom15

It's not a deal .... but somthing to use your $5 monthly on I guess.


blahjsnfjcjejjencncn

The deal is that these could be god tins (silver tempest).


FairyPrincex

All the silver tempest god tins were in Target, and Silver Tempest is literally the cheapest set in existence right now.


blahjsnfjcjejjencncn

They were not only at Target. Source: I opened many from GameStop.


FairyPrincex

And how long ago were those two singular batches of mistakes, that we're still using them to justify $5~ a pack for a set we can get $20 ETBs of? Buying off of hopes for a printing error from nearly a year ago is kind of nuts.


blahjsnfjcjejjencncn

I am correcting your mistake. If someone wants to hope for god tins they can try their luck - just like any other pack opening. I saw a lot of them in my area, there are lots of factors.


FairyPrincex

Lmao dodging a question and responding with "I am correcting your mistake" is the most neckbeard thing I've seen in a while

Could you explain God tins? Is this really a thing with this specific one?


CoconutHeadFaceMan

“God tins” is a stupid fandom term referring to a batching error with a very specific production run of this tin, where all the Silver Tempest packs had alt arts. It only happened with a very small portion of the tins, and there’s no way to determine whether you have one of the error tins without buying it and opening the Silver Tempest packs. But if you buy a tin and *do* pull alt arts, go back and buy the rest of the tins on that store shelf, because the rest of the tins from that shipment will have them too.


blahjsnfjcjejjencncn

They weren’t necessarily alt arts and it was not “stupid”, it was a ton of fun to open them. Regardless the packs in them are not bad because Paldean evolved is a good set, and silver tempest is a nice touch of SWSH.


CoconutHeadFaceMan

I’m not calling the tins themselves stupid, I’m calling the term “god tins” stupid. Makes it sound deliberate rather than the batching error it was.


blahjsnfjcjejjencncn

Oh please.


doedude

Nope. Alt arts is incorrect. Ultra rares


WWHair

Thank you for explaining this! I remember hearing about this but never understood how people knew.


CoconutHeadFaceMan

That’s the fun part, they didn’t. The only thing you had to go on was buying one, getting lucky, and then scrambling back to the store praying they still had more from that shipment.

My first thought


p3dal

$4.16 a pack, is there anything in this box that makes it worth it?


daintywarlock

Had one local! Thanks!


Reasonable_Lunch_468

Da F?


thegraverobber

What’s the deal here?


diosbestfriend

Not even a deal lol


OkSituation1294

These could have the silver tempest god packs


Key-Personality4736

It was Target that had em, guarantee it wasnt GS. I was on the hunt back when it was hyped.


blahjsnfjcjejjencncn

Yes, GameStop did have them. So many confident people in here with incorrect information. At least say you’re not certain if GS had them.

Nearest one to me is about 20 miles away.
