Collector Tips & Storage
Mapniverse cards feature dark borders and layered foil, so condition is especially important. Here are some simple steps to keep your collection pristine:
- Sleeve cards immediately: Use penny sleeves or inner sleeves for premium cards
- Use side-load binders: Reduces the risk of slipping and corner damage
- Separate volumes: Keep Volume 1 and Volume 2 organised individually
- Collect characters you enjoy: Jinwoo, Beru, Bellion and the Monarchs are popular
- Grade selectively: Save grading for clean HR, UR and standout SR parallels
