Which version do you have?

For the absolute cheapest way to own Arcanine, grab the Standard version for $7. The 1st Edition version at $2 offers a premium for its historical edition status, though the price difference here is minimal. If your goal is simply possession without collecting pedigree, the Standard is fine. However, if you value the collectible nature of the card, the 1st Edition is the better investment despite the slight price premium.
