TopVault | Mewtwo #3 (Kanzenban VHS Promo)

View and learn more about Pokémon Cards and Mewtwo on TopVault. This Japanese-printed English version of the US theater promo was included in the "Kanzenban" (complete edition) VHS released in Japan to coincide with the US theatrical premiere. This was about 1.5 years after the original Japanese movie release. While identical in design to the American theater promo, it was printed using Japanese cardstock and inks. This results in slightly different matte texturing and ink coloration. Most notably, the cardstock lacks the black layer found in American cards, making it visibly lighter and distinguishable when backlit.
