UNDER MARKET VALUE: Phantasmal Flames, the inaugural expansion for the acclaimed Mega Evolution generation of Pokémon TCG, has released its preorder stock at Amazon and the product is moving quickly. Booster Bundles remain available, and they are currently under market value.
Following the simultaneous release of Black Bolt, White Flare, and Mega Evolution double ETB sets, it’s refreshing to witness a focused expansion launch in Phantasmal Flames. And it’s an absolute hit.
The Dragon-type Mega evolution of beloved Pokémon Charizard takes center stage, along with the following highlights in Phantasmal Flames:
– Five Special Illustration Rare Mega Evolution Pokémon ex and Supporter cards
– Six Mega Evolution Pokémon ex
– Four Pokémon ex
– 12 Illustration Rare Pokémon
– 17 Ultra rare Mega Evolution Pokémon ex, Trainer, and Energy Cards
The excitement is palpable for the Mega Evolution era of Pokémon TCG, and it’s simply enjoyable playing Legends: Z-A while admiring my collection and decks brimming with Mega Evolved Pokémon. With Hyperspace Luminoise City on the horizon in the Mega Dimension DLC, Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution is set to escalate.
Phantasmal Flame product lineup and MSRP
Regrettably, it’s not just scalpers taking part in inflating Pokémon TCG sealed product prices. Major retailers such as Amazon and Target are doing the same.
It’s wise to be aware of what these sealed products should retail for, although most retailers typically price them either above or slightly below secondary market value these days rather than at MSRP. Here’s what the expected prices should be straight from the shelf:
– Booster Box — 36 packs, MSRP approximately $129.99
– Booster Packs — MSRP $4.49
– Booster Bundle (6 packs) — MSRP $26.94
– Elite Trainer Box (ETB) — MSRP $49.99
– Ultra-Premium Collection (UPC) — MSRP $119.99
– Mega Gengar ex & Mega Diancie ex decks — Releases slightly earlier on Oct. 24, MSRP $14.99–$19.99
