Box Topper (TCG)

A Box Topper is a special card included inside sealed booster boxes as an incentive for buying an entire box of booster packs. They were first introduced in the Legendary Collection, where they were oversized, reverse-holographic versions of a card from within the set. The first Box Toppers measured 126.5 × 90.0 mm, compared with Regular cards measuring 87.0 × 63.0 mm and Jumbo cards at 205.5 × 145.5 mm. Starting in EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua, Box Toppers became Regular sized cards with a design unique to the set. These Regular size Toppers (along with the secret insert cards, such as Celebi ex in EX Unseen Forces) have a set number which exceeds the size of the set (e.g. "98/97") and always have a rarity. The inclusion of Box Toppers ceased after the release of EX Holon Phantoms.
