Product Specifications

About Pokemon Terastal Festival ex (SV8a)

Pokemon Terastal Festival ex (SV8a) represents Pokemon Company’s latest premium high class pack release, launched December 6, 2024, featuring comprehensive Eeveelution content that has rapidly captured global collector attention. As a high class pack format, this Japanese booster box delivers superior pull rates and premium card quality compared to standard expansion sets, making it a strategic B2B wholesale opportunity for retailers targeting serious collectors and competitive players seeking early access to high-value cards.

Released as the Japanese counterpart to the upcoming English Prismatic Evolutions set (January 2025), Terastal Festival ex offers B2B wholesalers first-mover advantage in a market segment experiencing extraordinary demand. The set contains 237 unique cards including 187 main set cards and 50 secret rare variants, with each box containing 10 packs of 10 cards (100 cards total). This high class pack format guarantees multiple hits per box including guaranteed Special Illustration Rares and potential Master Ball Mirror variants that command premium secondary market prices.

Eeveelution Focus & Chase Card Value

The primary market driver for Pokemon Terastal Festival ex is its comprehensive Eeveelution representation featuring all eight evolution forms with multiple premium variants. Umbreon leads chase card values with Master Ball Mirror variants reaching $80-120 in the secondary market within one month of release, demonstrating exceptional short-term appreciation that rivals vintage Pokemon card performance. This unprecedented demand stems from Umbreon’s established collector base, with historical precedents including the Moonbreon alternate art from Evolving Skies maintaining values exceeding $400 even three years post-release.

Beyond Umbreon, the set features highly collectible Special Illustration Rare cards for Sylveon, Espeon, Leafeon, Glaceon, Jolteon, Flareon, and Vaporeon, each commanding $8-35 in current market conditions. The Special Illustration Rare artwork quality represents peak Pokemon TCG illustration standards, with artists like Sui (Espeon SAR) and other established Pokemon TCG veterans delivering visually stunning cards that appeal to both competitive players and pure collectors. This dual market appeal creates sustained demand across multiple buyer demographics, supporting long-term value retention superior to standard expansion sets.

The Gold Pikachu ex secret rare (236/187) adds additional chase value at current market prices of $27-35, though this card faces competition from similar Gold Pikachu releases in recent sets. However, the Master Ball Mirror variant system—returning from the successful Pokemon 151 implementation—creates additional collecting layers with certain Master Ball Eeveelutions commanding significant premiums. Unlike Pokemon 151’s 20 packs per box, Terastal Festival’s 10-pack configuration increases pull difficulty for specific targets, enhancing scarcity value for key chase cards despite overall improved pull rates typical of high class packs.

Market Performance & Early Investment Dynamics

Pokemon Terastal Festival ex demonstrates exceptional early market performance with booster box prices appreciating approximately 50% from $73 retail release price to current $110 average market price within one month. This 50% single-month gain represents annualized returns exceeding 600%, though such explosive early growth typically moderates as supply stabilizes. However, historical analysis of similar Eeveelution-focused sets (particularly Evolving Skies) suggests sustained premium pricing over multi-year horizons, with Evolving Skies booster boxes maintaining 200-300% premiums three years post-release.

The high class pack format contributes significantly to market dynamics through intentionally limited print runs compared to standard expansion sets. Pokemon Company typically produces high class packs in smaller quantities with concentrated release windows, creating natural scarcity that supports price appreciation. Combined with exceptional Eeveelution demand—consistently the most popular Pokemon character group globally alongside Charizard and Pikachu—market fundamentals suggest continued upward price pressure through Q1 2025 and beyond.

For B2B wholesalers, current market timing presents strategic advantages: Japanese release precedes English Prismatic Evolutions by 6 weeks, creating temporary supply arbitrage opportunities for international markets. English-language collectors seeking early access to Eeveelution cards drive strong demand for Japanese versions despite language barriers, with Japanese card premiums typically commanding 20-40% higher prices than English equivalents for identical cards. Early inventory acquisition enables retailers to capture holiday season demand (December 2024-January 2025) while positioning for sustained 2025 sales as supply tightens.

Conservative short-term projections estimate box values of $120-140 within 3 months, $140-180 within 6 months, and $180-250 within 12 months based on comparable high class pack appreciation patterns and Eeveelution historical performance. Key risk factors include potential Pokemon Company reprints (though unlikely for high class packs) and English Prismatic Evolutions supply levels potentially impacting Japanese version demand. However, Japanese collector preference for superior card quality and printing standards typically insulates Japanese versions from English supply impacts.
