Correct it stands for Hobby Kings. A forum more similar to this one than blowout.
I mistaken that you knew it meant Hobby Kings instead of Hong Kong, my apologies

Super interesting. Wish I was around for that but I was still in 1st grade trading pokemonMAMASCOOKINPC wrote: ↑Sat Jul 15, 2023 4:49 pm I don’t remember a time they were not popular and expensive. Beckett wrote an article about how stupid the set was (base set) but that couldn’t be further from the public perception in NY. All the kids and teens loved it. The PMG’s were a myth to most and the low print run added to the allure. Remember pre-internet, if your friends or card shop doesn’t have it, it may not exist. There were rumors about a green one but “Peter from down the block is always lying so I don’t know if I could believe him.” That was pre-internet talks.
We were hyped over a little dumb red logo on the 96 Rubies. Imagine seeing a PMG glowing out of a pack.
