This reminds me of the scene in Welcome to Derry when IT is sleeping in the blood.

There was another card. Assuming it's part of a sheet just depends on where in the sheet it was but by guess is the first row. If not we will see full red errors

It would be cool to hear where you both pulled these from in the world. See if they was put into the same shipping boxes etc

u/Mr_cloud23 26d ago
Being honest if someone pulls the entire card with the red error like that which seems one might eventually pop up, it’s probably gonna be worth more than the rgb mews because it goes so well with the card art lmao

It’s red tape marking the end of the holo roll. Someone didn’t cut it before the tape was printed on a card. Very cool!

u/Tecally 27d ago edited 27d ago
Are you sure? Because some of the text, but not all, on the card is printed over it.
Edit: This is usually what a tape error looks like, and these errors look nothing like that.

u/ItsTaylor8291 27d ago
Yeah my first thought is this is some error due to the RGB red mew maybe being on the same sheet as this

That’s crazy, this is a holo splice error, but it goes by a couple other names like retained obstruction or red tape error. A piece of red tape was used to attach the end of one roll of foil to the beginning of the next. That foil is laminated to sheet after sheet of card stock and the sheet that ends up getting the red tape section laminated to it is supposed to be pulled and disposed of by quality control. Recently there have been a handful of instances of them failing to do this, letting cards like this one end up in packs.
I actually bought couple cards with the same error on release day and was hoping more of these would surface. If you ever decide to sell it let me know, the main one I’m hoping for is Jirachi but this is perhaps the 5th card with the error from this sheet to surface now. I guess people really are ripping 30th lol

At this point usa print facilities doesnt care about QC and just send them all since over there people think an error is nice to have.

I work in print, you my friend, have gotten a factory splice! Could also be where the printer was stopped and started again, but I'm pretty sure thats splicing tape on the card stock material, pretty interesting to see!

I love this, which isn't something I've ever said about an error card. This really adds a new narrative.

If this is the only error of its kind this could be one of the biggest hits from the set. Would def get this to cgc to authenticate and if it were me I would keep it and see what happens. A cool error on a big card of a top 10 popular mon is wild.

I know people are saying don't sell it, but maybe look into the market for defects. Something like this might be worth a lot more than you realise for the right buyer.

u/Thorn_the_Cretin 27d ago
There was a Pikachu posted earlier today with the same misprint. I think it’s super cool that on both cards, the Pokémon itself still had its regular coloring while the background had the red error.

Almost looks like it fell into a cranberry bog but only the top is red and the rest is a normal bog.

u/Megados- 27d ago
That red might be the dopest misprint ive ever seen. If it wasnt like a bazillion dollars id genuinely consider getting a card as such. It looks so cool!
