Goldin Auctions sold a “Cheetozard” on Saturday evening for $87,840 ($72,000 plus the Buyer’s Premium). The relic is a three-inch Flamin’ Hot Cheeto that is shaped similarly to a Charizard, one of the original and most popular of the Pokémon franchise.

The journey of Cheetozard has been years long, with it originally surfacing around 2018-2022 with 1st and Goal Collectibles, according to the listing description. The hot chip was stored in a plastic case and forgotten in a safe for years, according to an Instagram post from 1st and Goal.
