• The “founding set” of the TCG
• Highly collectible long-term

💰 2. Strong collector value

• First prints (especially sealed boxes) are highly sought after
• Some versions (“blue bottom”) are more valuable in collector markets

🎨 3. Iconic artwork

• Mix of anime scenes + original Bandai illustrations
• Many alternate arts are collector-focused

📦 Box contents

• 24 booster packs per box
• 6 cards per pack
• Chance for:
  • 1–2 Secret Rares (low odds)
  • 8 Leader cards total pool

⚠️ Important note (collector info)

• There are different print waves (early “blue bottom” vs later “white bottom” boxes)
• Reprints exist, so sealed value depends heavily on print version + condition
