About This Items

  1. We have used a precision balance scale to check whether it is genuine and to confirm that it is genuine. Also, counterfeit products have missing parts of the letters due to duplication, but the products I am selling are sold after confirming that there are no missing letters. Therefore, you can purchase with confidence. Please check the attached photos carefully before purchasing.

  2. Product development background

    • Created as part of the 2005 Japanese “Gift Box Mew”, designed to celebrate the popularity of Mew and Pikachu during the EX era.

    • The set was targeted toward younger collectors, offering a mix of playability and premium artwork.

    • Pikachu was selected for the Gold Star slot to highlight its status as the franchise’s global icon.

    • Gold Star cards required a special printing process, featuring unique holo patterns and a star symbol indicating high rarity.

    • Distribution was limited to Japan, making the Japanese version more sought-after internationally.

  3. Rarity

    • Classified as a Gold Star card, one of the highest rarity tiers in the EX era.

    • Gold Star cards were inserted at extremely low pull rates, typically 1 per several booster boxes.

    • This Pikachu is further limited because it appears only in the Gift Box Mew, not in booster packs.

    • Early Japanese Gold Star cards are heavily collected due to lower print runs compared with English versions.

    • PSA-graded Japanese Gold Stars—especially unique promos—have strong long-term collector value.
