A few days ago I bought the Kyurem and Mewtwo boxes along with 4 other card packs since I wanted to get back into the TCG. I did attempt to record myself opening the packs, but my camera decided to die halfway through the process so I had to make two parts. Enjoy listening to my weird voice and watching all of the pulls.
(Note: I don't tend to show a lot of emotion)
2 – Cat333Pokémon, MusicThat giant Mewtwo card reminds me of the one I got with the Zoroark box. *steals the Zoroark at 4:40 and the other legends* Dang, you really got some nice pulls in both videos. I tend to get lots of "rare" Pokémon that I'm not too fond of. I really need to update my card collection list, too.
The Crystal Wall card reminds me of the Bittercold. I wonder if they're related.
2 – Reuniclus, MusicLast week I wasted too much money on Cards. >w< I went to a Pre-release as well for the next set "Plasma Freeze". During that event I opened up Latios EX, despite me not needing him so he'll most likely end up as trade material. Out of the Black Kyurem box and Lugia box I got the only thing useful I got was another Colress and a Vibrava (as I hope to build a Flygon deck eventually).
1 – MusicI don't have another unboxing video, but I bought a few booster packs today at Target. The first pack I opened (Dragon's Exalted) had a Rayquaza EX in it.
Three packs later, I pulled a Giratina EX.
In a way, I'm kinda sorry that I didn't record the packs I opened, but I'm happy with all the cards I got.
2 – Cat333Pokémon, MusicWhat a waste of money... Just more reason to use eBay to get the cards I want instead. Meh, look at the video if you're bored.
Edit: What a tease. Look what three of the codes for the online game gave me. >_>

Ahah... I need to go buy some packs again soon. Last Wednesday I got a few packs from the weekly league and didn't get anything good of course. Traded my Full Art Latios EX though for another Darkrai EX.
2 – Cat333Pokémon, MusicHorraaay double posting except something relevant because I have a visual this time, yaaay~! Sorta. It's just the lost Plasma Freeze pack of mine that the server wouldn't give me a few days ago last week but now it decided to give the 8th pack to me (which by the way I got the codes from a friend of mine so I didn't buy them ahaha, he doesn't play TCGO).
Annnnd dat EX. Of course I pull one and it's one that no one uses most of the time. </3
1 – Cat333PokémonI opened another pack on the TCGO for fun. It must be addicted to giving me this Reshiram:
1 – LugiaDialgaIn celebration of getting a 4 on my AP Calc final exam, I bought a lot of booster packs.
I'm actually sorry that I didn't record myself opening these since I did actually get a lot of good cards. :c These are all the rare cards I got on Saturday.

Ace Specs Cards

1 – Cat333Pokémon*sigh* I didn't get lucky at all with this tin. No holos, no EXs (besides the promo), and no Ace Specs (besides the one my friend gave me) Watch only if you're bored I guess...
I bought 9 booster packs the other day and I found 6 more packs that I bought online, but never opened. Enjoy watching the pulls, they're better than the last pulls from the tin. 
I also don't like it when I get really good cards on the OTCG, I want them IRL. D:
2 – Cat333Pokémon, AquablastI'm not too into the Pokémon TCG anymore, but I used to be a big time collector and small time player. Every once in awhile I'll get a pack because I miss opening them and seeing what's inside. Sometimes disappointment lies within and other times excitement.
I'll start this off with the Plasma Freeze booster I got today. Pulled a reverse holo Nidoqueen, and more importantly a Tornadus EX full art card. Needless to say, this wasn't a disappointing pack.
Well, I went out with my friend yesterday to buy some Pokémon cards before I left for college. There was a great deal: Buy 2 packs, get the third one free. I only spent around $30 for 9 packs.
But anyway, I think this was a good way to end the Summer~
2 – TurtwigX, Cat333PokémonI like how you started speeding through the commons once you saw the foil on the reverse holo card. 
It's pronounced "YOOK-see" (long "o" as in "goo"). You did pronounce "Sigilyph" correctly, though. (You're the first person I've heard say it the right way.)
(Nice Escavalier

Well, Mr. Jelly, thanks for the 11 booster codes.
Here's my own little video for that. (Sorry for the hissing sound. I didn't have a better microphone available.)
1 – ReuniclusI picked up a few card packs because they were in the bargain bin, and I also opened all my Pokémon TCG Online packs. Something rather amusing happens in the online one. ![]()
The solitary Legendary Treasures pack is the best one both times. I had awesome pulls both times.
1 – ReuniclusI picked up one of the combo packs for the XY cards since they just came out. It came with a Dragonite, Hydreigon and Garchomp, along with 2 XY packs and a Victini coin. Pulls weren't too shabby. Reverse holo and rare wise I got a Pansear and Inkay for reverse holos, a non-holo Conkeldurr, and a freakin' Mega Blastoise EX. Not only that, but from the TCGO packs, I got a Full Art Xerneas. Good pulls indeed. I'm hoping to get a Xerneas Elite Trainer box for my birthday in less than a couple weeks. Maybe I'll record that and the TCGO pack openings.
I forgot to mention that Reuniclus and I opened a box of Legendary Treasures cards. I now have an almost complete set.
1 – Ditto616I bought three packs of the X/Y expansion. Of interest are these cards:
M Venusaur EX
Scolipede
Gourgeist (reverse)
Aegislash
2 – Ditto616, ShadeAlright, this is gonna be a doozy. I went to an official prerelease today for Furious Fists. If you don't know how that works, you go, you pay, you're given 6 packs, you make a 40 card deck of what you have without trading(energy are provided), you play 3 matches, you get two more packs after you finish. Was the most fun I've had in awhile. I'm really considering legitimately trying to go for TCG tournaments in the future here.
But this thread is for the loot. Going there nets a sweet die and Promo XY13, a Machamp with the same set as the Furious Fists one.
As for the packs I'm actually going to list all that I got out of it
That was a doozy to do. Unfortunately, I didn't pull any ultra rares, but I'm going to be on the lookout for an Elite Trainer Box for the set while I'm out and about tomorrow. Maybe I'll be luckier then. I also might record me opening the TCGO packs when they're available on the 14th.
EDIT: I forgot to mention I marked my holos with an asterisk.
3 – Cat333Pokémon, SpikyEaredPichu96, ReuniclusAND I DELIVER!... kind of
It should be noted that on Monday I went out and got an Elite Trainer Box and started hyperventilating after opening the first two packs and pulling two Lucario EX in a row. I also got a Full Art Heracross EX at the last pack, so that was a great box, especially since I'd love to use the Lucarios in a deck. The TCGO pulls were pretty okay I'd say. The video is too big for VR to upload, so I'll keep that in mind next time and I'll screw around with some settings. The only notables out of it were a full art Korrina and full art Seismitoad-EX.
2 – Cat333Pokémon, SpikyEaredPichu96I tried recording myself unboxing the whole Elite Trainer Kit, but the batteries on my camera died. :x
It cut literally before I opened the packs insde. The packs weren't too impressive, unfortunately. The mic on my camera isn't that good either, so I added some music to make my voice less irritating. 
I'll try making a list of what I have so far sometime tomorrow.
1 – Ditto616Went to the card shop today since I had to run into town to do some errands. I bought a Dragon's Exalted Garbodor, since they reprinted it and I can run it still, and two packs of Furious Fists. Nothing really noting in the packs (two Beartic, one of them reverse holo and a Victreebel holo), but I got a Full Art Dragonite-EX in the TCGO packs. Still not bad since I got a double rare pack, and a holo from the normal ones.
After a couple days of collecting, this is what I have so far

I was honestly going to skip posting to here, but this was too good not to share. I bought a Mewtwo EX tin today because I needed one more for a deck I'm currently making. I figure I'm going to pay $10 for the single anyway, so might as well get 4 packs for $10, right? It comes with two Plasma Storm, a Plasma Freeze and a Plasma Blast.
I first have to preface this by saying I still keep in touch with former user of VR KrayzeeGuy (he's been seen to poke his head in every once in a great while still). I was talking to him while I was opening these packs. The first pack I open, I pull a Full Art Victini-EX, Victini actually being one of his absolute favorites. Next pack, I pull the Ace Spec Scramble Switch, a card that he's looking for. The other two packs I get Team Plasma Absol holo and Sigylyph holo. I think I've burned my luck for the next two weeks.
Well, Phantom Forces is coming out soon. You know what that means? Another prerelease opening list! Only a couple of exciting cards really, no ultra rares. My buddy who went with me pulled 3. (Aegislash EX which he traded for a FA Virizion EX, FA Lysandre's Trump Card, and Manectric EX).
Here's my list sorted common, uncommon, rare. Holos and rev holos will be noted:

The prerelease was fun, and I'm looking to go another next weekend as well, so hopefully I'll have another list to give, with some hopefully better pulls.
1 – Cat333PokémonI picked up an Elite Trainer Box of the new BREAKpoint expansion. Of the eight booster packs, I got Espeon EX Full Art, M Scizor EX Full Art, Darkrai EX, and Golduck BREAK. Half of the boosters contained really rare cards.
