Pokémon Card - Pikachu with Grey Felt Hat

Inspired by Vincent van Gogh’s renowned 1887 masterpiece, “Self-Portrait with Grey Felt Hat,” the illustration on this card, crafted by the talented Naoyo Kimura, celebrates Van Gogh’s 170th birth anniversary and the 50th anniversary of the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam.
Grey Felt Hat Promo Card for Van Gogh Museum
Recent reports indicate that the exceptionally rare Pikachu Van Gogh Pokemon card is poised for a re-release in the near future.
The genesis of this buzz dates back to 2023 when The Pokemon Company unveiled a collaborative project with the Van Gogh Museum, introducing an exclusive promotional card.
Dubbed “Pikachu with Grey Felt Hat,” this card was originally intended as a complimentary gift for any patron making a purchase at the museum.
Regrettably, the promotion took an unexpected turn as a wave of scalpers descended upon the museum, resulting in chaotic scenes captured and shared across social media platforms, all vying for the Vincent Van Gogh Pikachu card.
Responding to the turmoil, The Pokemon Company issued an apology for the disruption caused by the promotion, emphasizing the unexpected demand for the Van Gogh Pikachu cards.
As a precautionary measure for the safety of museum staff and visitors alike, the Pikachu card distribution, specifically the Grey Felt Hat 085 Promo Card, was halted at the museum.
Despite these setbacks, scalpers who managed to obtain the coveted Pokemon card swiftly capitalized on its rarity, listing it for auction online, particularly on eBay.
Some copies fetched staggering sums, commanding prices exceeding $600 by the close of 2023, notably the Van Gogh Pikachu cards.
Now, recent reports hint at a potential restocking of the elusive card by The Pokemon Company, reigniting anticipation among collectors and enthusiasts alike.
