You may not know this, but Pokémon just celebrated 30 years of the card game.
85 billion cards printed. 18,000+ different English ones.
About 1,025 actual Pokémon. And the anniversary set puts 30 Pikachus in a single pack line.
Then they dropped the rest of it: every card foil, reprints of the old hits, a new flashy rarity, and months of boxes, tins, and giant collections still to come. Not a birthday pack. A whole season of cardboard, built for people who already own too much of it.
Collecting is more than watches, trading cards and things that require white gloves.
Sometimes it’s a Van Gogh fridge magnet.
Sometimes it’s ice cream.
Sometimes you somehow have enough fridge magnets to need a database.
That’s the point.
NewTopic is for collections. Not just the expensive ones.
@DrHankenstein I just saw these two back-to-back in my feed. At some point, the collection somehow turns into one enormous wall of grey, terrifying spines.
One thing we’re learning while building NewTopic:
The internet is instant — until you need approval.
Then it’s suddenly 2000: “Please allow 3–5 business days.”
The great digital revolution did not kill bureaucracy.
It simply moved online, and everything is counted in business days again, with weekends off.
