The hardest slots in the sC: Charizard Starter Set VMAX master set sit at the very top of a short list: Charizard VMAX and Charizard V, both holo, lead a master set of just 21 slots. That matches the 21 cards in the set exactly, so each card adds one slot on average and there are no hidden extras to chase. Normal prints account for 19 slots and holos for 2. Laid out nine to a side, the whole run fills 2 double-sided binder pages, a compact job for a Japanese Pokémon TCG release from the Sword & Shield era, dated March 27, 2020.
The sC: Charizard Starter Set VMAX master set has only two variant families. Normal is the larger, with 19 slots, and it covers the bulk of the checklist. Holo is the smaller, with 2 slots, and those are the two Charizard cards. A holo print carries a foil treatment on the card, so it counts as its own slot in the binder. With no other families in play, the master set checklist stays short and every card has a single place to fill.
| Variant family | Slots | Priced | Share of value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Normal | 19 | 17 | 35% |
| Holo | 2 | 2 | 65% |
As of October 24, 2026, 18 of the 21 slots in the sC: Charizard Starter Set VMAX master set carry a price. Value is heavily concentrated: the ten most valuable slots hold 85 percent of the master set cost, while the lower-value half of the priced slots holds only 18 percent. By finish, holo accounts for 53 percent of the total despite being just 2 slots, and normal prints make up the remaining 47 percent. A few cards set the total, and the rest of the binder fills in at a much lower weight.

Shares of the master set’s priced value, from the slot prices in the checklist above.
Five slots define the difficulty of the sC: Charizard Starter Set VMAX master set. In value order they are the holo Charizard VMAX, the holo Charizard V, the normal Victini, the normal Pokegear 3.0 and the normal Cynthia. Together they hold 68 percent of the master set's total value. None of the five is a variant of a card's main print, since every slot here is that card's only print in its finish. The two Charizard holos are the clear obstacles, while the three normal cards that follow them still sit well above the rest of the checklist.
At 21 slots, the sC: Charizard Starter Set VMAX master set is about equal to the Sword & Shield era median of 21 slots, so it is an average-sized job for the era. By master set value it ranks 10th among the 21 comparable sets of its era. The previous set, sp1: Zacian + Zamazenta Box, is smaller at 7 slots. The next set, sD: V Starter Decks, is far larger at 127 slots, and its master set holds higher value than this one, so this master set is the lighter of the two neighbors to finish.

A sC: Charizard Starter Set VMAX master set is one copy of every card AND every variant in the set — the 21 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.
