Collecting Tadbulb

Every one of Tadbulb's eight cards is common or uncommon, and the chase print is itself a Common-rarity card from Obsidian Flames — a reminder that on cheap early-stage pages like this, the 'chase' card is often just the least-common of a uniformly budget lineup rather than anything rare. kurumitsu drew two of the eight. It leads into the two-stage line ending at Bellibolt.
