The Pikachu is the Japanese 7-11 promo.

Why didn't they show the Meowth? Probably a 7-11 promo also.

are these only going to be at the pokemoncenter?
wasnt there a topic a month ago about some store getting exclusive tins? i though it was gamestop or EB or is this the tin that was mentioned?

[RainbowRichards]

They are available through normal Nintendo TCG distributors. Just today I received presale info about these tins ($14 each plus shipping from NY).

And, yes, this is the tin that was advertised at EBGames about a month ago...

they are available in the UK too! ($26 hey ho nothing changes! MOQ $320)

I just bought a tin from Target for $20. The foil promos are #012 Pikachu and #013 Meowth. The artwork is pretty spiffy. Here's their stats:

#012
Pikachu (L type)
50HP
C - Agility (normal Agility text) no damage
LC - Thundershock (normal Thundershock text) 20 damage
F weakness
C retreat cost

#013
Meowth (C type)
50HP
C - Plunder - 10 damage - Before doing damage, discard all Trainer cards attached to the Defending Pokemon (before they affect the damage).
CC - Scratch - 20 damage
F weakness
C retreat cost

That is good that the tins are avalable at other stores. I will have to get one.

I picked up one for myself and one for my eldest son 3 or 4 weeks ago, when we were visiting the Pokemon Center in NY. Then the following weekend when we went back up they had "mysteriously" dissappeared.

When I asked a store employee about it, he alluded that they had put them out early by accident.

If they are now out I'll probably pick up another when when we go back up.
