The Pokémon Center drops second wave of 30th anniversary TCG pre-orders
The Pokémon Center has announced a second wave of 30th anniversary Trading Card Game (TCG) pre-orders following a turbulent initial release last Wednesday. The new pre-order window opens October 2nd and includes several anniversary-themed products, though notably not all items expected for the milestone celebration.
The available pre-order offerings consist of two main products: the Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration Booster Bundle, which contains six booster packs and is priced at approximately $26.94, and the Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration Mini Tin Display, sold as a 10-pack bundle for around $99.99. Each mini tin contains two booster packs, a sticker sheet, and an exclusive art card, providing collectors with multiple ways to acquire anniversary products.
Despite collector interest, the highly coveted Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Boxes (ETBs) remain unavailable in this second wave of pre-orders. The tiered availability of anniversary products highlights ongoing supply and demand challenges in the trading card game market.
