# Worker (Japanese) #093 — S12: Paradigm Trigger

## Summary

Worker sits in the uncommon slot of Paradigm Trigger, a mid-pack Supporter that fills a binder page rather than anchoring a pull. The Japanese card, released in October 2022, shows a blonde worker in a blue hardhat and a pink-and-yellow striped vest, shovel in hand, with gems glinting in a mine tunnel behind her. Its stadium-trashing effect gave it a niche competitive use, but its pull is mostly collectors completing the Japanese set. A $0.09 modelled guide with no copies traded in 30 days says bulk, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file.
