Numbered 8\/102, this English-language card was released in 1999 and is associated with the Base Set Theme Deck exclusives. Unlike cards typically pulled from booster packs, 1st Edition Machamp was included with Pokémon Theme Deck products, making it a distinctive piece of the early Wizards of the Coast Pokémon TCG era. Its 1st Edition stamp, holographic finish and classic Ken Sugimori artwork make it a notable addition for collectors building vintage Pokémon card collections.\n\nOverview\n\nThe Machamp 8\/102 features the iconic Fighting-type Pokémon with 100 HP and a holographic finish, alongside the distinctive 1st Edition stamp associated with the earliest English Pokémon TCG releases. The card was illustrated by Ken Sugimori and belongs to the 102-card Pokémon Base Set. Its Theme Deck association distinguishes it from many other Base Set cards, while its vintage 1999 release places it firmly within the formative years of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Collectors may encounter different print characteristics associated with Machamp 8\/102, including versions described as Shadowless and versions with a shadow, so identifying the specific printing and condition is important when evaluating an individual card.\n\nKey Highlights\n\n• 1999 Pokémon Base Set Card: An original-era Pokémon TCG card from the 1999 Base Set, numbered 8\/102.\n\n• 1st Edition Holo: Features the 1st Edition stamp and holographic finish, two defining characteristics of this vintage Machamp card.\n\n• Theme Deck Exclusive: Machamp 8\/102 was distributed as part of Pokémon Theme Deck products rather than being a conventional booster-pack pull.","brand":"Pokemon","offers":[{"title":"default","offer_id":67587240558958,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/pushas.com\/en-gb\/products\/pokemon-tcg-base-set-1st-edition-8-machamp-holo-deck-exclusive-1999","provider":"PUSHAS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
