Even Trump's Pentagon Is Selling Rare Pokémon Cards Now
Kotaku • • technology
Key Points:
- The Pentagon food court now houses a Lucky Box vending machine, a gacha-style device offering rare, graded sports and trading cards, including the highly sought-after Surging Sparks Pikachu card.
- The Surging Sparks Pikachu card features full art with Pikachu wearing a Stellar-type Tera crown, making it a valuable prize locked in one of the most secure locations in the U.S.
- Lucky Box machines, costing between $100 and $200 per attempt, have gained popularity for offering rare Pokémon cards and autographed sports jerseys, with many machines located in Las Vegas.
- Although the Pentagon machine prominently displays images of rare cards like Charizard, it remains unclear if all featured cards are available, and no major wins have been reported from this
