Gundam Card Game— what's in the box

Snapshot as of 2026-07-23 · every rate carries its basis — estimates are estimates

Does the publisher tell you the odds?

No. Official gundam-gcg.com product pages list titles, dates, $4.99 MSRP only; set composition (50C/36U/32R/12LR + alt-arts) comes from product marketing, not odds disclosure.

Gundam Card Game (launched 2025: GD01 Newtype Rising → GD05 Freedom Ascension Jul 2026, EB01 extra booster)

Pack anatomy

Cards per pack
12 game cards + 1 resource/token card
Packs per box
24
Boxes per case
12 (community convention, cited by rarity guides)

Guaranteed slots: Per pack: 6 C, 4 U, 2 'rare-or-better' slots. LR, LR+, ++ gold foils AND alt-art lower rarities (C+/U+/R+) all compete for the premium seeding — so a C+ can be rarer than an LR.

Distinguishing consumer point: extremely generous base completion — one documented GD01 box opening yielded complete playsets of all C/U/R (50/36/32 types) plus 8 of 12 LRs, because every pack carries 2 rare slots (48 R+ per box). JP and EN share the 12+1 configuration.

Approximate rates

Confidence is part of the data: a low-confidence range is an honest answer, a precise-looking number without a basis is not.

R or betterhigh confidence

2 per pack / 48 per box (structural)

Basis: community structural observation, corroborated by a documented full-box opening source →

LRmedium confidence

several per box (one documented GD01 box: 8 LRs)

Basis: single-box community opening (n=1) plus qualitative guide corroboration source →

SP (GD03+)low confidence

~1 per 2 boxes

Basis: aggregator/shop blog estimate, presented without methodology — treat as rough source →

'++' gold foillow confidence

roughly 1 of each per 12-box case ('case hit')

Basis: community/aggregator estimate repeated across two independent rarity guides; no sampled dataset source →

Rare occurrences — god packs, case hits, oddities

'++' case hits

Gold-foil premium versions (e.g. LR++) sharing the single premium slot; the market chase of each set

Approximate frequency: ~1 per case per variant (community estimate, low confidence)

Sets: GD01 onward

SP reprint tier

Special alt-art reprints of existing cards seeded above LR

Approximate frequency: ~1 per 2 boxes (aggregator estimate, low confidence)

Sets: GD03 Steel Requiem onward

Rates drift between sets, print waves, and regions; where our sources disagreed we kept the disagreement visible instead of averaging it away. Nothing on this page is investment or purchase advice — it exists so you know what a box is before you buy one.
