Character and collecting appeal

Synchron monsters are the Tuners Yusei Fudo uses to Synchro Summon in Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. Its text is about negating cards and effects, banishing cards and Special Summoning. Its once-per-turn limits are typical of modern card design.

Version and identification

Check the code printed below the artwork on the right: it should read MAMO-EN008. MAMO-EN008 is the English printing. Other languages use their own letters in place of EN, such as DE or FR, and are priced separately. It is the Starlight Rare version. Starlight Rares have a sparkling holographic finish across the whole card. This is the Extended Art version, where the artwork runs past the usual frame. Magnificent Monsters has 3 other printings of Starjunk Synchron: MAMO-EN008 (€1.70), MAMO-EN008 Extended Art (€20.18) and MAMO-EN008 Extended Art Grand Master Rare (€2,231). Each has its own price, so match the code, edition and rarity exactly.

Grading and population

A PSA 10 sells for 7.2× the ungraded price and 1.4× a PSA 9. That gap is big enough that grading a sharp, well-centred copy can pay for itself. Even pack-fresh modern cards can have surface scratches or curling foil, so a 10 is never guaranteed.

Investment potential

In its favour: an active market (24 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. Past prices do not guarantee future ones. This is not financial advice.

Before you buy

Expect to pay around €133.75 for a clean ungraded copy; played copies sell for less, and a PSA 9 costs about €664.65. Ask the seller to show the code MAMO-EN008 and the Starlight Rare finish clearly in the photos, as listing titles often mix up printings. At this price fakes are worth checking for: genuine cards have a small holographic seal (the Eye of Anubis) in the bottom-right corner, and the font, colours and card back should match a copy you know is genuine. Look up the certificate number of any graded copy on the grading company's website. Modern foils can be scratched or curled straight from the pack, so check the surface under a light if you plan to grade.
