Phantom Forces: rip it or buy it?
Completing Phantom Forces as singles (about $207 minus the chases) costs less than a box's worth of packs (~$7,701, mostly dupes) — so buy the singles you actually want. Heads up: this set's sealed product trades as an appreciated collectible (~$213.93/pack), so "ripping" really means cracking a collector item — singles are the practical play.
Buy the singles.
- A box's worth of packs: ~$7,701 (cheapest sealed unit is the booster pack at $214).
- Complete the set minus chases, as singles: $207 — ripping a box runs ~$7,494 more.
- Top chase — Dialga EX (122 Secret Rare) — Secret Rare: $987 as a single vs. ~$39,000 to crack for one (est.).
