Pokemon 1998 Red Green Quick Starter Gift Box Set

Pokemon 1998 Red Green Quick Starter Gift Box Set. This gift box set was sold only in Japan, back in December, 1998. It is sealed in its original packaging. This set is extremely rare and difficult to find. Out of production. NOTE: There is a 0.75" x 0.75"(2cm x 2cm) tear in the plastic wrapper on the front side of the box and a 3" x 1" (8cm x 2.75cm) tear in the plastic wrapper that wraps from the side of the box onto the back of the box. The box itself is in very good condition with nice sharp corners. Very nice condition considering its age. See pictures below for closeups of the tears in the plastic wrapper.
