Parents did not play Yugioh in tournaments with their kids like Pokemon parents did. If the kids were 10, and the parents were in their mid-30’s, those parents are most likely their 50’s! In Pokemon, in 1999/2000, parents were playing along with their kids at large-scale tournaments. If you started playing MTG in 1994 at the age of 20, you are 43 right now. And they have much more disposable income. Well, I think right now the crowd investing in Pokemon & MTG cards is considerably older than their Yugioh counterparts. So, why are Pokemon and MTG card fetching way crazier prices than Yugioh? Cards like Charizard and Blue Eyes White Dragon found permanent homes in binders, sleeves and protective cases as soon as they were opened from booster packs. Several years later, collectors learned from MTG. So those cards command high prices these days. Very few MTG cards survived in mint condition. Most Black Lotus’s got played due to their extreme power. People, for the most part, just played the game like a board game, and cards took a major beating during gameplay. Obviously, people in the early 1990’s didn’t expect Magic: the Gathering to become the popular game it is today. So this pristine card is much rarer than Blue Eyes White Dragon. In 2017, this Pristine-10 Black Lotus sold for $100,000! There are only 15 perfect, black-bordered, graded 10’s that I’m aware of. The most highly sought after card in MTG is “Black Lotus”, which was the most powerful MTG card for a few years until it was ultimately banned from competitive play. It is reported MTG is the most popular TCG among active players, even though YGO might have outsold it.

Magic: The Gathering started in 1993, a full nine years before Yugioh hit U.S. And BEWD is actually playable in the TCG. There are only 43 PSA 10, 1st Edition, #LOB-001 BEWD’s in circulation. Blue Eyes White Dragon is Charizard’s equivalent in my humble opinion. And Charizard wasn’t even playable in the TCG. This Beckett Pristine Charizard actually sold for $55,000 earlier this year! There are currently 115 1st Ed., PSA-10 Charizards in circulation. 1st Edition, Base Set, PSA-10 Charizards regularly sell for $15,000 to $20,000 on eBay.
Charizard is another dragon-type card like BEWD. The face of Pokemon is Pikachu, but the king of Pokemon card sales is “Charizard”. Yugioh, Pokemon and Magic: the Gathering (MTG) are the 3 most popular trading card games in the United States. Yugioh went into the Guiness Book of World Records as the best selling trading game in 2011 with 25 billion in card sales. I might be wrong here, but I truly believe this BEWD card is under-valued at $1,500 when compared to other TCG’s most iconic cards. This Blue Eyes White Dragon sold for $1,500 in October 2017.
