Rarity Collection 5 Set Guide

Overview

Rarity Collection 5 is a reprint set. Every one of its 150 cards was printed before, from Tri-Horned Dragon, first released in 2002, to Radiant Typhoon Vision, first released in September 2025. What is new is the rarities they come in.

Most cards come at several rarities. The catalog lists 77 cards at all seven: Super Rare, Ultra Rare, Secret Rare, Platinum Secret Rare, Ultimate Rare, Collector's Rare and Starlight Rare. Another 64 are listed at Ultra Rare and Starlight Rare only.

The list mixes the oldest cards in the game with recent ones. The three Egyptian Gods, Dark Magician and Blue-Eyes White Dragon sit beside hand traps such as Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring and newer cards such as Kashtira Fenrir and Primite Dragon Ether Beryl.

Cards and rarities

Rarity Collection 5 has 150 set codes, each starting RA05-EN and printed under the artwork on the right. Where a card comes at more than one rarity, every version shares its code, so the table counts set codes at each rarity and a code printed at two rarities is counted twice.

Counts are set codes, so a card listed at seven rarities counts in all seven rows. The catalog does not list a rarity for 1 of the 150 codes yet (RA05-EN136, Maliss <P> White Rabbit). Set completion in TurnZero HQ counts the distinct set codes you own against the set's total, so a card printed at two rarities counts once, with an every-rarity count beside it for collectors chasing each version.

The last ten cards

The set's last ten codes, RA05-EN141 to RA05-EN150, hold its ten most valuable Starlight Rares. The catalog lists each at Ultra Rare and Starlight Rare, and Dominus Purge at three more rarities. Besides Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon, the chase card below, these six were the most valuable:

Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon

RA05-EN148

Fusion of Fallen of Albaz and a Fusion, Synchro, Xyz or Link Monster. Once per turn (Quick Effect) it sends a Fusion Monster that mentions Fallen of Albaz from your Extra Deck to the GY to banish 1 monster on the field.

Super Polymerization

RA05-EN149

A Quick-Play Spell. Discard 1 card to Fusion Summon using monsters from either field as material, and neither player can activate cards or effects in response.

Kurikara Divincarnate

RA05-EN147

Special Summoned from your hand by Tributing every face-up monster in your opponent's Monster Zone that activated its effect this turn, gaining 1500 ATK for each. Once per turn, in your End Phase, it Special Summons a monster from your opponent's GY to your field.

Dominus Purge

RA05-EN150

Negates an effect that adds a card from the Deck to the hand, and destroys that card if you have a Trap in your GY. You can activate it from your hand while your opponent controls a card, but then you cannot activate the effects of DARK, WATER or FIRE monsters for the rest of the Duel.

Wake Up Your Elemental HERO

RA05-EN142

An Elemental HERO Fusion Monster plus 1 or more Warriors. It gains 300 ATK per material, destroys each monster it battles and deals that monster's original ATK as damage, and Special Summons a Warrior from your hand or Deck when it is destroyed.

Shooting Quasar Dragon

RA05-EN143

A Level 12 Synchro Monster made from a Tuner Synchro Monster and 2 or more non-Tuner Synchro Monsters. Once per turn, on either player's turn, it negates the activation of a card or effect and destroys it.

Cards worth knowing

These four work in any deck, because none of them needs a particular archetype. Each is printed here at Ultra Rare and Starlight Rare.

Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring

RA05-EN091

Discard it to negate an effect that adds a card from the Deck to the hand, Special Summons from the Deck, or sends a card from the Deck to the GY. Once per turn.

Infinite Impermanence

RA05-EN140

Negates the effects of a face-up monster your opponent controls until the end of the turn. You can activate it from your hand if you control no cards.

Ghost Ogre & Snow Rabbit

RA05-EN131

Send it from your hand or field to the GY to destroy a monster on the field that activates its effect, or a face-up Spell/Trap that activates its effect. Once per turn.

Called by the Grave

RA05-EN117

Banishes a monster from your opponent's GY and negates the effects of monsters with the same original name until the end of the next turn. Limited to one copy.

The chase card: Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon

Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon

RA05-EN141

Rarity Starlight Rare

Set code RA05-EN141

1st Edition market price, September 30, 2026 $544.23

The Starlight Rare Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon (RA05-EN141) is the most valuable card in Rarity Collection 5. It was $544.23 on September 30, 2026.

It barely leads. The Mirrorjade the Iceblade Dragon Starlight Rare (RA05-EN148) was less than $15 behind at $529.70, and nothing else in the set was above $250, so the set has two chase cards rather than one.

The catalog lists Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon at two rarities here, and the gap between them is large. The Ultra Rare was $85.42, which still made it the eighth most valuable printing in the set.

Chase cards and prices

All eight of the most valuable printings on September 30 came from RA05-EN141 to RA05-EN150, and seven of them were Starlight Rares.

Playing it

Rarity does not change how a card plays, so if you only need a copy for your deck, buy the cheapest printing. For most cards listed at all seven rarities, that was under 25 cents on September 30. Primite Dragon Ether Beryl, for example, was $2.12 at Ultra Rare and $10.41 at Starlight Rare.

Several cards here are restricted on the Forbidden & Limited List as of October 1, 2026. Trap Dustshoot, Maxx "C" and Dimension Shifter are Forbidden, so you cannot play them under the list. Nine are Limited to one copy, including Monster Reborn, Called by the Grave and Reinforcement of the Army, and Branded in High Spirits is Semi-Limited to two.
