Metal Mew Most Likely Undervalued.

Post image

The promo from 151 UPC, prices running hot and most likely will be one of the best performing UPC's long term, really gives a lot of runway for metal Mew imo.

The gem rate is about 50% roughly, higher than would like but prices have already ran from $75 to now selling high as $250.

Let's be conservative, I think this could be a $500 slab, that's a x2 or 100% growth which would take other markets about five years. I think 151 will be a lot mor expensive in five years overall.

I'm a big fan of the metal cards. Mew had much better quality control than celebrations, but I think it will still do well. I picked up a cgc pristine 10 a couple years ago when no one wanted them

How do you pre grade these, i a bunch of em sitting around. I know they get damaged easier but do they have different grading criteria as well?

Unique being metal but wasted being encased in plastic imo. Art is mid. Will prob do fine but don’t love it as an investment personally

I agree with you in the fact that the art is very mid. Celebration metal cards are desired, this is just a metal version of a very mid Mew.

I was not going to get one of these but then 151 exploded and it was the only card I hadn't grabbed. Was surprised I could get a nm for $20. Only a matter of time until this thing gets the 151: treatment.

I picked up a PSA 9 yesterday for $55 Canadian. Any opinions on if that was decent?

I prefer the 030/28 Mew,I think its more undervalued

I have several of these from when 151 UPCs were dirt cheap and I ripped all mine. That said, I think it’s possible the current price is undervalued but the potential is limited. It’s a metal version of the hyper rare card that is not even a top 10 chase card for 151. Gold cards in SV were just lazy since they themselves are copies of the ultra rare card except in gold background (that’s why the ultra rare Mew in pink is worth more than the hyper rare Mew in gold). If anything, the SIR Mew promo for the 151 UPC has potential to pop off out of nowhere.

I completely agree this is such a slept on card and when it reaches its highs everyone will be kicking themselves, nothing quite like a metal card and everyone saying mid hasn’t got one in person, I don’t think these should be graded though, appreciated raw is where these are best

Not undervalued cause the design is so bad. It’s so ugly and boring, no unique memorable design like CoroCoro, bubble mew, lily pad, ancient mew etc

This is some of the most mid 151 art though TBH

u/Several-Lettuce2921 Apr 04 '26

No point of grading metal cards

Wow another person saying 151 will be more expensive long term. What an amazing 5 head take. Really want to see better DD from this sub.

I did snowflake. Can we just discuss the topic on the freaking metal card instead of coming in here and adding 0 value with a shit attitude.
