Grand Tiki Elder [1st Edition] #LON-E011 collector guide

About Grand Tiki Elder

Grand Tiki Elder is a Normal Monster, with flavour text instead of an effect, printed as LON-E011 in Labyrinth of Nightmare (2003) as a Common. It is a Level 4 DARK Fiend monster with 1,500 ATK and 800 DEF. Labyrinth of Nightmare arrived in early 2003 and is best remembered for Torrential Tribute, Magic Cylinder, Gemini Elf and Dark Necrofear.

Character and collecting appeal

Fiends are one of the largest Types in the game, home to many of its darker and more unusual designs. With no effect, its appeal is its artwork, its stats and its place in Labyrinth of Nightmare.

Version and identification

This guide covers the 1st Edition printing. The words "1st Edition" are printed below the artwork on the left; copies without them are the Unlimited printing and usually sell for less. Check the code printed below the artwork on the right: it should read LON-E011. The E in LON-E011 marks the European English printing. The North American printing uses a code without the letter, sometimes with a different card number, and has its own prices. It is the Common version. Commons have a plain name and no foil. Labyrinth of Nightmare has 4 other printings of Grand Tiki Elder: LON-011 (€0.39), LON-011 1st Edition (€0.62), LON-E011 and LON-EN011 (€0.87). Each has its own price, so match the code, edition and rarity exactly.

Price history

There are no recent sales of this printing of Grand Tiki Elder yet, so we cannot give it a value.

Investment potential

In its favour: it comes from the 1st Edition run of an early English set, which will never be printed again. Past prices do not guarantee future ones. This is not financial advice.

Before you buy

Ask the seller to show the code LON-E011, the "1st Edition" text and the Common finish clearly in the photos, as listing titles often mix up printings. Cards from 2003 often show white wear on the back edges and corners, so ask for photos of the back before you buy.
