Collector notes

Condition. Check for centering on the alternate art foil surface, edge chipping common on leaders, surface scratches from foil, print lines on manga art, and corner wear from handling.

Storage. Use semi-rigid top loaders with sleeves, store in cool dry place away from sunlight to prevent foil oxidation, avoid stacking heavy decks on leaders.

Authenticity. Verify holographic foil pattern matches official Bandai prints, check card number OP12-020 and rarity symbol L, inspect for incorrect fonts or blurry manga art on fakes, use TCGPlayer ID 643748 or PriceCharting ID 10266388 for reference[3][4].
