Omastar (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Omastar (Japanese) in its sought-after 1st_Edition variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #029/088 of the Split Earth set, it is the kind of card RarePokemonCard tracks for scarcity and collector demand rather than raw price alone. The harder a card is to pull in top condition, the more weight serious collectors place on it.
How Rare & Valuable Is Omastar (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Omastar (Japanese) (Uncommon, Split Earth #029/088) changes hands at roughly $21.71, and availability keeps it within easy reach for collectors. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $21.71, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $5.00. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $21.71, Lightly Played $9.00, Damaged $5.00 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Omastar (Japanese) is valued near $91.00 — about 4.2x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Omastar (Japanese): Gem Mint & Population
Even for a card at this rarity, the top of the market belongs to certified gem-mint copies. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Omastar (Japanese) sits around $91.00 — roughly 4.2x a raw copy. That gap exists because relatively few examples ever earn a perfect grade, so gem-mint population is the real scarcity collectors chase. Step down a notch and demand spreads across PSA 9 $29.99, PSA 8 $14.99 — each tier a smaller, scarcer pool than the one below it. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.
