The First Validated Claim Bonus was awarded one time only and has been claimed with the Gold Alpha.

The bonus was awarded based on the timestamp of the first verified claim email, not based on pull date, purchase date, or shipping date.

R&D Promo

The Rainbow Holoforge R&D Promo

The Rainbow Holoforge is a Series 1 R&D card featuring Series 0 artwork. It is NOT part of the Series 0 checklist, original odds, or hit structure. Production remains unchanged: 315 cards per mint, 945 across Series 0.

What it is

The Rainbow Holoforge effect is created through an experimental metal-finishing process that uses laser energy, heat, and controlled focal variation to create color directly in the stainless steel surface. No foil. No sticker. No printed holo layer.

Distribution: 15 R&D Promos total

There are 15 Rainbow Holoforge R&D Promos. Every full Mint 1 Master Case purchase receives one (1) Rainbow Holoforge R&D Promo.

All Holoforge R&D Promos ship separately from your original order.

This applies retroactively to all Mint 1 Master Case purchases already made. Early buyers are included.

Contingency

Master Split Contingency

If Collector Box and Inner Carton inventory both sell through before all Master Cases are sold, remaining Master Cases may convert to Master Split inventory:

• —2 Inner Cartons sold at $475 each
• —10 Collector Boxes sold at $100 each

Master Split inventory does NOT carry the Master Case Hit guarantee (guaranteed Silver or Gold tier metal hit). That guarantee applies only to original Master Case purchases.
