Banker Estimate
$137.57 — $224.52
Price Snapshot
Currently trading at $137.57-$224.52 in standard condition.
Trend
Base Set starter trio commands sustained collector premium. Blastoise holds tier-2 demand behind Charizard but ahead of bulk WOTC.
Key Factors
- Scarce active supply
- PSA 10 sells 42x over raw
- 688 recent sales — deep liquidity
Recommendation
Accumulate raw copies in LP-NM condition now. WOTC era starter, Gen 1 nostalgia, grading upside to PSA 8-9 is where the real floor sits on this card.
