Top Deals Today: Pokémon TCG, Mass Effect Items, and More

Let's face it, the Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) can be a wallet-buster, but that doesn't mean you have to overpay for those precious pieces of cardboard. Amazon has come through with some fantastic bundles just in time, including Surging Sparks, Journey Together, and Paldean Fates. If you've been convincing yourself that you're just buying "a few packs for the kids," now's your chance to stock up while pretending it's not for you. No judgment here—I'm doing the same thing.

I also want to highlight the Mass Effect statues available at the IGN Store, because who doesn't need more plastic space heroes cluttering their bookshelf? Commander Shepard and the crew are up for pre-order, and yes, I've already added Jack to my cart because chaos is my middle name. There's also a Humble Bundle packed with narrative indie games that promise to tug at your heartstrings. It's a great day for making those impulsive yet justifiable purchases.

I couldn't resist grabbing Surging Sparks because getting six booster packs for under $50 is a steal compared to what Amazon has been charging lately (though it's still above MSRP). I was itching for something new to open. Being part of the latest Scarlet & Violet expansion, this is a smart pick if you're trying to stay current or just love the thrill of pulling a good card.

If you've replayed Mass Effect more times than you can count, you'll understand the allure of these statues. I pre-ordered Jack without a second thought—it felt essential. The lineup includes Shepard, Tali, Legion, and more, each detailed enough to warrant a spot on my shelf. If you still quote Garrus with pride, these are the perfect addition to your collection.

Paldean Fates is priced at double the MSRP, but it's also hard to find in 2025. I grabbed it for the baby shiny sub-set, which is incredible. If you're only after specific cards from this set, buying them individually might save you money.

This bundle offers some of the best narrative indie games from recent years. I opted for the $12 option, added the games to my backlog as usual, and immediately started playing The Pale Beyond. It's a compelling lineup for those who enjoy character-driven stories and don't mind being emotionally moved by minimalist storytelling.

Consider this the ultimate all-in-one box for those who want cards and a plethora of accessories.

I hesitated at first, but then remembered this collection includes 18 booster packs and a playmat. It's a significant investment, but if you're looking for a premium bundle that justifies its price, this one delivers. I bought it for the overall experience rather than individual cards, which is the best way to approach it.

I picked up the Shining Fates Pikachu V Box because I never got around to opening it when it first came out, and now felt like the perfect time. It includes four booster packs, a Pikachu promo, and the oversized card that usually ends up near my desk—a nostalgic treat for those who missed it initially.
