 The much debated bootleg,fake,dodgy sealed packs. Like with the trading cards pic I posted with the yellow bits of wrapper, I was always intrigued in what the original story was behind these, and I feel I've got a good sense of them now after speaking to many sources. This is a selection of 2 types of sealed packs, from different sources. The white corners from one that Lucypher also posted. Also some original Arclad backs, similar looking to the Israel backs, different company. Thse cards were for the Colombian album which is half GPK and half TCTs. The white cornered packs didn't have Arclad backs in, but they did all have both GPK and TCT stickers in, and all packs had the same one facing inwards one side, the other 2 stickers facing inward on the other side, so felt like a process driven packing done by a business, but who am I to judge! |

It's time for you to witness in full colour and close-up detail, the best foreign GPK series to ever have been released. Bukimi Kun from Japan. and to top it all off, I am so proud to have sourced and combined the best of the best BK items possible to have in any foreign collection (in my opinion obviously) = the only known COMPLETE mint 1st print run album and the only known SEALED 2nd print run pack.  |

Just to clarify again:
This complete album is the very same album that Josh (aka rattleheadz) owned. He posted youtube videos of the 3 albums and suddenly our lives were that much brighter.
He had 3, this complete album, an empty album, and just a cover. At one point, I also acquired the empty album in another deal from a different collector who got it from Josh, but I ended up trading it as I had then found the complete version from tbe UK buyer and as I collect complete albums, I could let the empty one go for something else.
A handful of respected UG members went round Josh's house years ago to verify the item and they all agreed this was real.
Josh then sold this complete album to a UK owner, who I tracked down, met, and purchased the album from about 2 years ago.
If required, please check with Josh, the UK owner, or any of the UG members who went round Josh's house to verify it.
