# Mega Froslass ex #275/217 — Ascended Heroes

## Summary

Froslass has a loyal following from Sinnoh, where its ghostly snow-woman design made it one of the more admired Ice picks of its generation. As a Special Illustration Rare in a set built around Mega ex, this sits in the top chase tier, and Teeziro's name adds to the pull. At a $42 modelled guide, down 38% over 30 days on 189 copies traded, with only 21 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $1.44 out of Ascended Heroes; a CGC 10 brings $132, 3.2 times raw, but a 71% gem rate against $45 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
