Black Bolt Elite Trainer Box
Elite Trainer Box of Black Bolt (BLK), released July 17, 2025. Market price from TCGplayer, updated daily.
Is the Elite Trainer Box worth it?
Opened, the elite trainer box costs you $17.15 a pack, against $14.39 for a single Black Bolt booster pack: 19% more than single packs, so you pay for the extras or the box itself. At launch it cost $49.99; today it sells for 209% more. The 92 hits of Black Bolt (Double Rare and up) are worth $3,081 together; the five most valuable make up 55% of that, so most boxes miss the cards that carry the value. Buying the single card you want is usually cheaper than opening for it; see the Black Bolt chase cards.
