 In today's video we're checking out my top 25 rarest and most expensive Yu-Gi-Oh cards. What's up guys we're back with another top 25 rare Yu-Gi-Oh cards video. I haven't actually done an update on this since 2021 I believe early 2021 so it's been about two years. I did a video recently talking about how much money I've lost on those top 25 specific cards from 2021. Go check that one out if you missed it. It was pretty interesting to see like how much the card market has come down. You're going to see it more today because I actually updated my top 25 in that past video. I just did like the same top 25 that I had in 2021 but it's changed a lot since then. I have a lot of different cards so I wanted to update it. I've had a few requests to do this so let's just go through it. Before that I have a giveaway and since it is mostly graded cards in this I figure I'd give away a graded card. I have a BGS10 Suijin that we got in a collection recently. I figured this would be a pretty amazing giveaway. I mean almost a black label 10 card. All you have to do is like the video, be subscribed, turn on notifications. Let me know your favorite card that I have in this top 25 and your rarest and most expensive Yu-Gi-Oh card. All right starting at number 25 we have the Ancient Gear Golem Ultimate Rare First Edition. You guys probably have seen my grading video when I got this back recently. You can go check that one out if you missed it. It was a pretty awesome return. I also had this on my top five pick of the 2022 so it's a pretty new card to my collection but it's still worth about $1,600 which is a crazy price for a Yu-Gi-Oh card at this point. It is an Ultimate Rare it's for First Edition the Lost Millennium. So in those GX sets the Ultra Rare are really hard to pull at Ultimate Rare so this is one that's extremely hard to pull out of the Lost Millennium and then it's also a PSA 10. So of course, Gym Mint 10 is going to make everything more expensive even with the recent crashes and prices. Gym Mint 10s are still more expensive than Rock Cards like by a lot. So this is our number 25 card. One of my favorite cards iconic in the first episode of the GX anime so it's pretty cool. At number 24 we have Gaia the Fierce Knight. This is one of a few in a row that have the exact same price so I did some research on these prices. Sometimes they haven't sold in a while so it's kind of hard. You kind of got to guesstimate but this card I think had sold recently. This is a First Edition Legend of Blue Eyes card so Legend of Blue Eyes was the first set ever. This is an Ultra Rare out of the set so it's pretty hard to pull and then of course it's pretty iconic because you can use this card quite a bit in the anime. This card has come down quite a lot. It's only about $1,800 now which is still insane. Like I mean that's a lot of money for a Yu-Gi-Oh card but it was up around like $3,000 at one point so this card has come down quite a bit due to the recent card crash but still a pretty solid value for a pretty iconic card and also I just really like this artwork. I think it is really really cool. Kind of sucks though 2300 normal. Sorry Yu-Gi not very good. At number 23 we have the Cyber Indragon Ultimate Rare. This is only a PSA9 if you notice. This card is worth the same amount as the Guy of the Fierce Knight. The $1,800. If this was in a 10 this would be probably the most expensive card I own. It's a very very rare card to get in PSA10. Ultimate Rare as I said about the Ancient Gear Goal and this is an Ultra Rare in Cyber Indic Revolution so it's really hard to get an Ultra as an Ultimate Rare but this one is in fact that this is an iconic card from the GX anime. Zayn used it quite a bit. It was insane. I mean if you watch that show you were like wow I like Cyber Dragons. I like Cyber Indragon. It's crazy. It's huge. Use it with Power Bond. It becomes 8000. You know it's just so awesome and iconic. Cyber Indic Revolution was such a playable set back in the day that it was a lot of it was open so now even finding this you know being able to pull it at all is pretty difficult so it's an expensive card so $1,800 for this one. At number 22 we have our Blue Eyes Tune Dragon. We actually pulled this one 2019 I think out of a Magic Ruler box and ended up grading it a 10. Back then it was worth about $325 in a PSA 10. It has gone up from there a lot but it used to be about $4,000 during the card boom. It's definitely come down from there. This card is also $1,800 so there's several in a row here that are kind of tied. You could flip flop them in any position pretty much. This Blue Eyes Tune Dragon is an iconic card though that Pegasus used. Really awesome Secret Rare Tune card because tunes are a really popular archetype and then of course the Jim Mitten. This one is a pretty high pop card though. There's a lot of these graded 10 but even with a lot being like a hundred and something there's still only a hundred and something in the entire world so Fairly Rare $1,800 for the Tune Dragon. Then at number 21 we have my Blue Eyes Shining Dragon from Retro Pack 2. This is one I couldn't really find the price. I have it at the same $1,800. I couldn't find the price because there hasn't been a sale of this one in a while. If it was a PSA 10 this one would be a very high price. This for some reason is a really iconic card I guess from the movie because everyone got the movie card and they thought they had this version. This is actually the Retro Pack version Secret Rare which came out later so it's actually not even the original print of this card. But PSA 9 is a pretty nice grade for this card and Retro Pack 2 has gotten insanely expensive. If you want to open it up and try and pull this card you're going to be spending thousands of dollars to actually pull it. So $1,800 seems pretty reasonable. I think last time I had it was like a $2,100 or something so I buffed it down a little bit because of the the card you know crashed basically so I figured it's come down. It could be a little bit lower than this though. And our final card at the same price we have Elemental Hero Air Nios Ultimate Rare First Edition. We recently graded this card. This is about $1,800. If it gets a 10 this card's crazy because it's the Forbidden Yu-Gi-Oh card. I mean we don't think they're going to ever reprint it again. I mean they might but they might not. They've had seem to have some sort of copyright issues or something with this card so it only has two printings the same set. Ultra Rare and Ultimate Rare so this Ultimate Rare copy is the highest rarity you're ever going to get assuming they don't reprint it. So the Air Nios is pretty iconic for that reason. It's also an Elemental Hero which is a fan favorite archetype. So a lot of stuff going for this card and PSA9 pretty strong for an Ultimate Rare so about $1,800. I think there actually was a sale for this one so pretty reasonable I think. Alright we are cracking the top 20 in this card. The Elemental Hero Phoenix Enforcer finally does have a real sale. I saw it on eBay. I couldn't believe that because every time I've done this this has not had a sale. I bought this card from a friend of mine on Instagram Fiche and it was about 300 something maybe 270 something like that. This was back in 2018 or 2019. It was either early 2019 or late 2018. My very first graded card. I've had it ever since then. This is such an awesome card because it is also an Ultra Rare in a GX set and as I've said Ultra Rare and Ultimate Rare are really hard to pull. It's out of enemy of justice. I opened eight boxes of that set or nine. Never got this card. So that's how hard it is to pull. Compared to like current star lights it's easy to pull because the current star lights take tons and tons of boxes but back then these ultimate rears were some of the hardest things you could pull. They're probably pretty similar in terms of Ultra Ultis to Ghost Trails. They're about one per case. And of course this is a Gemma 10 Elemental Hero. All that adds to it. This card sold recently for $1850. At number 18 we have the Rainbow Dragon misprint from Gladiator's Assault. There's two versions of this misprint. There's also a tactical evolution version which has the effect version is basically what they call it because as the effect borders is worth a lot more than this one but this is still a pretty popular one. It's also in a BGS9 which is one of the highest grades for this card. I don't think there's ever been a BGS10 but there has been like one or two 9.5s. So it's pretty rare to get in this high of a grade. It is also really cool because it literally just has the wrong name on it. It says Rainbow Dragon instead of being the Chaos Neos which is insane. There wasn't a recent sale when I was looking but the last time I checked which wasn't too long ago was when we did that update video. There was a bunch of sales around $1900. So I kept it there. I think that's pretty reasonable for something like this rare to get. So Rainbow Dragon misprint. One of the most iconic misprints in all of Yu-Gi-Oh. At number 17 we have the right leg of the Forbidden One first edition. I actually bought this card for like $3,750. Let me tell you it is not that much anymore. It's definitely less. There was one for sale. I think Vintage Yu-Gi-Oh has one for sale for $2,400 at eBay. So I just guessed $2,000 on this one because it's probably not $2,400 because that one would have sold probably theoretically but with these high end cards it's like maybe the right buyer is not here looking for it or whatever. So there's all that that goes into play but I think $2,000 is pretty fair for a first edition Legend of Blue Eyes ultra rare even though the guy was $1,800. So maybe you could say it was a little bit lower but the Exodia is so iconic. This one by itself it's like okay it's a leg who cares but if you have all five pieces together it's insane just like in the show. Then at number 16 we have the Dark Paladin from Magician's Force first edition. This card got up to like $5,000 at one point. There's a couple of different versions of this. This is technically the error artwork because this card was actually supposed to be a dual master's guide artwork and then they accidentally put it into Magician's Force. So in first edition Magician's Force you would pull this card rather than the corrected artwork which is the one you get an unlimited Magician's Force. I'll the picture pop up right now of the corrected artwork. If you did end up pulling this in a Magician's Force booster box back then you could actually send it in to get the corrected artwork. So for that reason a lot of people really like their corrected artwork because you had like take steps to actually get the card so it was like rarer but then there are people out there with like 50 copies of each so keep that in mind if you're trying to spend a lot on a Dark Paladin. I think that this artwork's really really awesome and I think it's really good so it's pretty iconic. It fell a lot to underlight. It was like 1800 I think at one point. I've got it at $2,000. I think it's rebounded a little bit so I'm thinking $2,000 for the Dark Paladin error artwork. Then at number 15 we have the Dark Magician. So speaking of Dark Paladin we have Dark Magician. This is the first edition copy from Legend of Blue Eyes. This is actually the one I pulled with Leonhart about a year and a half ago maybe even two years at this point. It's crazy how long that's been. This unfortunately did get the nine but it's a pretty amazing card. If it was a 10 it'd be one of my most expensive cards but unfortunately it's not. It's just a nine but being that iconic from the show it's not the show artwork so that kind of hurts it a little bit but I've always personally liked this artwork. I think it looks awesome. I don't remember which version I had as a kid. It was probably the BPC version but I really like to look at this card and I thought it looked amazing so it's nostalgic for me personally. I've got this at about $2,000. I couldn't find any sales on this so I think it could actually be more than this. It might be like $2,500 but I couldn't find any sales recently. I'm going with $2,000. Seems pretty fair for this card. At number 14 we have another Legend of Blue Eyes ultra rare that I pulled the Red Eyes B Dragon and actually I think that the Dark Dark Magician could be like a similar price to this but I found a PSA9 sale. I know this is BGS but this was also graded 9 at PSA so it's basically a PSA9. I found a sale for $2,227 so the Dark Dark Magician could be up there or this could be down there because it's BGS however you want to look at it but the Red Eyes Black Dragon we pulled this. This was a huge video for my channel when we opened the Legend of Blue Eyes Mr. Box. Pulled the Red Eyes in the last pack. It was absolutely crazy. It seemed scripted almost because I pulled at the end. I weighed out the packs hoping to get it you know earlier so I could keep some of the packs and then that didn't work out so I had to open all the packs. I was completely like devastated. I knew I wasn't gonna get anything and then we pulled this. One of the most epic cards that I own just in terms of the memories and the nostalgia. I'll definitely never part with this card no matter what the price is so pretty excited about you know still owning this card. I think it's probably worth $2,200 something like that so pretty solid. BGS I mean I do have several BGS cards now but it's very annoying when I do these and try to stack these up and it just doesn't fit you know they don't fit together. And at number 13 we have my Summon Skull from Metal Raiders First Edition. This card is a PSA 10 so that helps but this card was in like my top five for a while with how expensive it was. This thing has crashed hardcore. I think it was like six or seven thousand dollars at one point during the boom and it is all the way down I think the $2,500 so we're at $2,500 for this card which I mean that's an insane amount for a Yu-yu card so it's really not that crazy but we'll look at this epic artwork. This not being the first print I mean they had the common version in the starter deck first but everyone wanted the Ultra Rare. It's so shiny it's awesome an iconic monster from the anime. Summon Skull is just too cool. $2,500 I think it's pretty fair for that card. And at number 12 we have another Legend of Blue Eyes Ultra Rare. This one is a PSA 10 monster reborn. This is a pretty awesome card because not only is it used in the anime a bunch it was really good in the game for a long time. At this point it's kind of phased out it's not as good anymore but for about 15 years this card was banned. It was way too good you could just bring back any cards from the graveyard. So it was playable. It was iconic on the show. It was rare in the Legend of Blue Eyes set. It's a beautiful artwork. I personally really like this artwork. Some people like the OCG better but I think that this one looks really really nice. It's nostalgic for me personally. This card I have at $2,500 as well. Alright number 11 we have my Dark End Dragon which you saw in my top five pickups of 2022. This is a Shonen Jump price card. I paid $2,500 for this so I just kept it at that price. It was a pretty recent sale so I think it's pretty fair. This is a BGS 9.5, strong 9.5, quad 9.5 as they call it. This is my only SJC price card. It's definitely the cheapest and most accessible of all the price cards from Shonen Jump but it is the last one and is pretty awesome. It's also playable if you play Edison so if I ever want to crack this out you know it could be lit. Not gonna happen but very cool card. I think it's worthy of being about $2,500. Pretty awesome looking card. Pretty iconic for being a price card. If you don't know price cards were given out for winning tournaments and stuff like that so it's very limited in terms of the supply even though it's the most abundant of all the price cards. Still pretty hard to find. We are now cracking the top 10. We have the Black Luster Soldier Envoy of the Beginning. This is another card that was about $5,000 and now it has come down quite a bit. I have it at $2,500 as well as those other two so you know you could flip those back and forth but this is an Invasion of Chaos first edition card. Invasion of Chaos was a super rare box and also this card was super playable in goat format it was just really really good. If you get it out on the field you pretty much win a lot of the time in goat format so it is a great great card in terms of playability back then as well as the iconicness of the anime and the collectability of it plus the artwork is just fantastic on this card so definitely a solid card in the top 10. And at number nine we have its counterpart and Invasion of Chaos the Chaos Emerge Dragon Envoy of the End. This is another card that fell down from about $5,000. This card has a reset sale for $2,543 so it's only slightly above the Black Luster Soldier but it's an iconic card from the anime as well. I believe Kyvi uses this in the third season in Battle City. It was also insane in the game. They had to ban it. One of the very first ban cards I think it was on the first ban list and then also the artwork is just insane and not to mention the Invasion of Chaos being very difficult to pull you got to have a hobby box to pull this secret rare so it's not easy to get. It's pretty hard to find these days so definitely a solid card. At number eight we have my only ungraded card in the list the Minerva the Exalted Lightsworn. This is a not a shonen jump but a YCS prize card so it's the newer prize card but this card was playable back then so there's not as many copies out there that are you know in great condition because people were actually playing these. It is probably more abundant than the SJC cards in general but it was also playable and iconic because people really liked it. It also has the waifu factor which always matters in Yukiyo. You may not care about it like me but it matters. This card's expensive for a lot of the same reasons as the dark end just being the prize card hard to get you had to win a tournament to get it and now eventually years later you can get them from other people but this card is really really cool. I'm glad to own this one so definitely a solid eighth spot. At number seven we have a TP8 Ultra Rare Magical Arm Shield. You're like what is this card? Like why is this valuable? It's hard to find in general out of the pack because it's one in 108 to actually pull this card then you have to actually grade it at 10 and then those sets were pretty low like distribution as well because they only went to the hobby stores and stuff like that so this card has not had a lot of graded tens. I think it's an eight pop I'm gonna pop it up on the screen maybe I'm wrong about that there might have been one graded recently but I think it's a pop eight so it's extremely hard to find. If you're collecting a full set of the ultra res from TP and PSA 10 they're not gonna sell it because they have their whole set so they have to sell their whole set to make it worth it so this card is crazy hard to find for that reason. I've been offered about four thousand dollars for this card with this one it's they're basically never for sale because they're all in collections at this point so you basically have to go with offers so about four thousand dollars for this card and most people wouldn't pay four thousand for this but the people that need it for their collection would because they know the people that own these aren't gonna sell it for the price of a set card because they know like the rarity and then it's part of their set and all that different stuff so they have to offer higher prices for this kind of stuff being low pop. All right number six we have the Cyberdark Dragon Ultimate Rare this is the one I pulled upside down out of Cyberdark Impact we graded a nine we all then recreated a 10 should have been a 10 all along in my opinion but that's how it goes with grading but this is one of my favorite cards I think the texture on it looks amazing the artwork is awesome it's really it's like kind of GX iconic but like not crazy so it's not like at the same level with some of these other ones in terms of anime iconicness and it was also never good in the game really so in terms of Yukio so it's really just like a rare card that you pull ultra rare out of Cyberdark and back as I've said ultra rares in oldies very difficult to pull and they're just not a lot of these out there so I had to guess on this one because I haven't seen a sale this in a long time a long time ago I got offered 6500 but I think at this one it's probably more around four thousand dollars now we're on to the top five we have another TP ultra rare this is royal decree same reason as the other one this card is really hard to pull it's only a pop eight I think the same as the magical iron shield so less than 10 of these in the entire world great attempt and this one is also a great card like back then it was really awesome so it's better than the magical arm shield in terms of playability it's also the same all the great same great stuff that magical arm shield had going for it it has all of that then the artwork I think is really cool I mean it doesn't have a lot of hollow in it it has the sky back there and then the people I think it looks great it's an awesome looking card this card I've been offered like 5500 for it but that was a while back so I'm estimating that this is probably worth about 4500 now our number four card is one you're probably really familiar with a genzo PSA 10 this is the one I pulled out of my pharaoh servant box back in 2019 and then graded at 10 back then it was like a $1,200 card so it was always already really expensive it ended up going all the way up to around $12,000 during the hype and during the boom but it has since come back down to about $5,000 this card is epic and iconic for many reasons it was amazing in the show the artwork is really awesome it was extremely good in the game for a long time you couldn't use any traps while this car was on the field it's also one of the most epic looking secrets of all the original sets so super strong card at number four all right number three is a card that I recently picked up the exodia the forbidden one legend of blue eyes first edition this card is of course super iconic for its first episode anime appearance when it destroys kaiba and of course everyone who knows anything about yugioh even if you don't you know about exodia it's like in the means it's like collect all five pieces of exodia it's just that well known around the culture of everywhere basically it's also a legend blue eyes ultra rare so it's hard to pull it has all that going for it if you get the entire set this this is a really crazy expensive set it's also a graded gem meant 10 so it has all that great stuff going for it this card I think I traded for it around $5,000 but I think it could probably be maybe like more like $5,200 it's probably worth a little bit more but it's hard to know because there hasn't been like a real sale for yet it was kind of a trade and I kind of gave away a little bit of extra stuff for it so I'd go like $5,200 on this card now we're on to the top two we have blue eyes white dragon first edition this one's also faded with the lower name which is really cool and it's a wavy card so it has all that going for it it is only a ps a nine if it was a 10 it would be my most expensive card by far but it is only a nine unfortunately this card I remember thinking it was going to get like a seven or an eight and it got a nine so we got super lucky with this it was really really awesome this card is worth about $5,700 this card in nine used to be insane I think it was like 15k for a while so I'm just happy that I got it you know not you know insanely expensive I actually got to grade mine from a collection so that was pretty pretty cool this card looks absolutely amazing I don't know some people like and don't like the faded but I think it looks really awesome and of course it's blue eyes the most iconic card in Yu-Gi-Oh so that is a pretty awesome card and finally let's see if you guessed it the number one card the same as it's been before the morphing jar tournament pack two jim meant 10 it's another tournament pack card morphing jar was really good for a while in the game it's also in the anime and it was really creepy I remember specifically being like wow this card is really weird so it has some great artwork it's iconic it's in tp2 which is the rarest of the tournament packs in general all the tournament packs ever made this is the hardest one to find I personally graded this card myself in 2019 and I've had it ever since it was $15,000 at one point I don't regret not selling it at all because it's come down a lot but uh it definitely has lost a lot of value this card's only about $6,500 now which is still very very expensive for a card but compared to what it used to be not so much so that wraps it up for the top 25 if you guys enjoyed it make sure to
