Dragons Exalted Master Set Checklist & Cost

Variants in the Dragons Exalted master set

Only three variant families make up the Dragons Exalted master set: Normal with 118 slots, Reverse Holo with 89 and Holo with 12. There are no stamped or special editions to chase. The extra slots come almost entirely from reverse holos, which exist for the Common, Uncommon and Rare cards in the set. A reverse holo is the same card printed with the foil pattern across the card body rather than the art box, and it sits in its own binder pocket beside the standard print. The holo slots are the cards printed with a foil art box.

Where the Dragons Exalted master set's cost sits

Value in the Dragons Exalted master set is concentrated at the top. The ten most valuable slots hold 79 percent of the total, and the lower-value half of the priced slots holds just 2 percent. By finish, normal prints carry 86 percent of the value, reverse holos 12 percent and holos 2 percent. Of the 219 slots, 214 carry a price, as of October 24, 2026. A master set cost for this set is therefore mostly a question of the top few slots, while the long tail of commons and uncommons adds very little.

Hardest Dragons Exalted master set slots

A handful of slots decides how hard the Dragons Exalted master set is to finish. The five hardest are Giratina-EX, Mew-EX, Ho-Oh-EX and Rayquaza-EX, all Ultra Rare, plus Krookodile, a Secret Rare. Together they hold 58 percent of the master set's total value. All five are the card's main Normal print rather than a variant, so the difficulty here sits in the headline rares and not in a hidden reverse holo. Finishing the reverse holo run is mostly a matter of patience, while these five set the real pace.
