Version and identification

Check the code printed below the artwork on the right: it should read MAMO-EN025. MAMO-EN025 is the English printing. Other languages use their own letters in place of EN, such as DE or FR, and are priced separately. Magnificent Monsters has 2 other printings of Malefic Paradigm Shift: MAMO-EN025 Secret Rare (€0.78) and MAMO-EN025 Starlight Rare (€3.17). Each has its own price, so match the code, edition and rarity exactly.

Grading and population

A PSA 10 sells for 83.1× the ungraded price and 4.8× a PSA 9. That gap is small, so grading fees may outweigh the gain unless the card is for your own collection. Even pack-fresh modern cards can have surface scratches or curling foil, so a 10 is never guaranteed.

Investment potential

In its favour: a price well below its September 2026 peak, which some collectors see as room to recover; an active market (25 recent completed sales), so it is easy to sell. Against it: large modern print runs, which tend to cap prices unless a card becomes iconic. Treat this as background, not a prediction or financial advice.

Before you buy

Expect to pay around €0.36 for a clean ungraded copy; played copies sell for less, and a PSA 9 costs about €6.24. Ask the seller to show the code MAMO-EN025 clearly in the photos, as listing titles often mix up printings. Modern foils can be scratched or curled straight from the pack, so check the surface under a light if you plan to grade.
