A Brilliant Stars pack puts a hit in slot 1 and slot 10, and about 1 in 26 packs holds one of the 1 rarities below. 21 of the set's 186 cards can fill them. The best of them is Charizard V #154 at $270.66 — a card you would open once in 544 packs. 2 trade above $50; the rest are worth about $2.46 each. Nobody has published a pull-rate study of Brilliant Stars, so these rates are estimated from measured sets of the same era — good to about a tier, not to a decimal.
