The Master Deck Build Box EX master set comes to 46 slots, and because it holds 46 cards, each card fills exactly one slot with no extra finishes or stamped versions to chase. That keeps the master set checklist simple: one copy of every card completes it. Laid out nine to a side, the full run fills 3 double-sided binder pages, a compact project for a Japanese Pokémon TCG release from the Black & White era, dated September 14, 2012.

Shares of the master set’s priced value, from the slot prices in the checklist above.
At 46 slots, the Master Deck Build Box EX master set is about 2.4 times the era median of 19 slots for Black & White sets, so it is a larger job than most of its neighbours. It also ranks 1st by master set value among the 6 comparable sets of its era. The preceding set, HSZ: National Beginning Set, has 34 slots and its master set holds less value, while the next set, BKB: Black Kyurem-EX Battle Strength Deck, has 18 slots and also holds less value.

A Master Deck Build Box EX master set is one copy of every card AND every variant in the set — the 46 cards on this page, with their Normal, Reverse Holo and Holo prints each listed and priced on their own. Sign in and the checklist tracks what you own, in step with the Cardboard Alpha app.
The large NM-only figure is a complete catalog estimate when every printing has current NM pricing. LP, MP, HP, and DMG “and up” totals below it use the requested condition or a better available condition. These are summed reference prices, not a quote from one seller; a dash means the current market does not cover every printing yet.
“LP and up” means lightly played or better: the total uses LP when available, then NM as the better-condition fallback. The MP, HP, and DMG tiers follow the same pattern.
