# Omastar #23/92 — Legend Maker

## Summary

Omastar is a Gen I fossil Pokémon with a loyal following among Kantō purists, and this is a Mitsuhiro Arita illustration, a name collectors seek out on its own. A mid-tier Rare in Legend Maker, it has real binder appeal but never carried the chase-slot weight. The modelled guide sits at $2.48, up 8% over 30 days on 3 copies traded, with 636 days of inventory on the board; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
