Best Pokémon TCG deal: Get Ascended Heroes ex Boxes for under market price

TL;DR: TCGplayer has the Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Ascended Heroes Mega Feraligatr ex Box listed for preorder at $74.97 with shipping included. That puts it $8.58 under TCGplayer’s current $83.55 market price. The Mega Meganium ex Box and Mega Emboar ex Box are also available for $69.97 each.

The Pokémon TCG’s incredibly popular Ascended Heroes expansion is about to get even bigger, and preorders for the upcoming ex Boxes featuring the Legends: Z-A starter Pokémon are under market price for a limited time. 

As of April 21, TCGplayer has the Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Ascended Heroes Mega Feraligatr ex Box listed from $74.97 with shipping included. Against the trading card retailer’s own current $83.55 market price, that makes this preorder $8.58 cheaper than market value. It is also just below the product’s most recent sale of $74.99 and well under its $77.92 listed median.

A presale item out on April 24, TCGplayer currently has nine sellers for the Mega Feraligatr Box with 35 units available in total. If these sell out, you can also try your luck with Walmart’s Ascended Heroes Ex Box for $69.99. However, this appears to give you a random box between Mega Ferigator, Mega Emboar, and Mega Meganium, so beware if you’re after the promo card for a specific evolved starter.

TCGplayer will also let you buy the individual Mega Meganium ex Box for $69.97 and Mega Emboar for $69.97 — putting them just under a dollar under their own market price. 

The Pokémon TCG’s new Ascended Heroes ex Boxes will give you the same contents:

• One promo card featuring its titular Pokémon

• Four Pokémon TCG Ascended Heroes Booster Packs

• One oversize lenticular promo card of its titular Pokémon

At the time of writing, Amazon’s preorders for the Ascended Heroes ex Boxes haven’t been made available. So these TCGplayer listings are currently the only place where preorders for specific boxes are readily available.

You can now preorder the six-pack Chaos Rising Booster Bundle for just under $59.50. What’s more, you can preorder the 36-pack Chaos Rising Booster Box at Walmart for $244.99 — so you’re only paying $6.81 per pack.
