# Technical Machine: Devolution (Japanese) #161 — SV8a: Terastal Fest ex

## Summary

Arriving in Japan in December 2024, Technical Machine: Devolution came over a year after the English card debuted in Paradox Rift, so this Japanese copy is a reprint rather than a first look. Printed in Terastal Fest ex, it is a common Item with a glossy foil finish, a pink-and-magenta swirl behind a silver disc. As bulk, its draw is the Japanese set stamp and the bright foil. A $0.17 modelled guide with no copies traded in 30 days says bulk, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file, and a PSA 10 guides at about $36 against $65 in grading fees, so the only money in this card is finishing a set, not a slab.
