What Is A Ghost Rare Foil In Yu-Gi-Oh?

One of Yu-Gi-Oh's most prestigious rarities disappeared for 5 whole years!

By Zachariah Butler | @ZButlerTCG1 | Published 2/7/2023 | 5 min read

We're back with another look at an iconic rarity! Today, we're going to delve into the history of Ghost Rares.

First introduced in the Tactical Evolution booster set in 2007, these holographic cards were instantly tied to the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime by virtue of the first Ghost Rare printed: Rainbow Dragon (Ghost Rare) , which was a perfect fit given the appearance of Ghost Rare artwork. These cards were incredibly rare, and to date, they remain one the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG's most prestigious chase rarities.

How can you tell if you've got a Ghost Rare yourself? They're pretty tough to confuse with other rarities, but let's break it down.

Ghost Rares feature a "rainbow" or pearlescent white name stamp, and it's basically identical to the foil names on Secret Rares. But the art field is where Ghost Rares stand out as something unique: the illustration of each Ghost Rare is fully foiled with no inked overlay and no texturing: a Ghost Rare will appear silvery or all white, until you angle it just right under proper lighting. When you do, you can see the "ghost" of the card artwork pop up in a 3D hologram! Angle it carefully and you can even see the artwork in something close to full color.

Originally there was only one Ghost Rare per set, and they were so incredibly rare that you weren't even guaranteed one in every case – that's 12 entire booster boxes of product. That meant you couldn't even expect to see a Rainbow Dragon (Ghost Rare) in 1 out of 288 booster packs! Think about how cool it was to snag one of these back in the day?!

When Were Ghost Rares Changed In Yu-Gi-Oh?

Ghost Rares were originally included in every core booster set until the end of 2015, Where Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend (Ghost Rare) appeared as the final core set Ghost Rare. In fact, it was the last Ghost Rare at all until Legendary Duelists: Rage of Ra brought back Ghost Rares as an unadvertised surprise five years later!

Konami heard the cries of collectors and players everywhere and listened to the requests to revive this historic rarity. And the best part was that they started to pick truly iconic cards for this sterling rarity.

Where Can I Get Ghost Rares In Yu-Gi-Oh Now?

Targeted squarely at collectors, Ghosts from the Past took Ghost Rares to another level, delivering cards like Dark Magician (Ghost Rare) , Blue-Eyes Alternative White Dragon (Ghost Rare) and more, in arguably the highest rarity they'd ever appeared in.

Overall though, where do you even get Ghost Rares? You'll want to find Ghosts From the Past and Legendary Duelists sets like these:

Ghosts From the Past and Legendary Duelists sets are both pretty popular, so I don't expect either series of releases to disappear anytime soon. You'll have plenty of chances to find and collect cards of this scarce rarity over time!

• View history

Ghost Rare , known as Holographic Rare in the OCG , is a rarity introduced in the TCG version of Tactical Evolution .

Ghost Rare cards have a very shiny silver lettering for the card name, much like a Secret Rare , with some colors removed from the card image. The body of the monster itself seems split, making the image look 3D. If a light is shone on the card image, the color changes. As a result, it can be hard to make out the monster on a card colored this way. At a certain angle the image's color is somewhat restored with the same colors as the normal card just in a dimmer version. The overall effect of these changes is a pale, "ghost-like" appearance to the card art, especially when scanned. Starting with the TCG set Legendary Duelists: Rage of Ra released in September 2020, the Level / Rank and Attribute of the card are also holofoil, to match how Super Rare and Ultra Rare cards have been printed since July of 2017.

Ghost/Gold Rare cards, a hybrid between Ghost Rare and Gold Rare , can also be found in the Gold Series: Haunted Mine packs.

From Tactical Evolution to Lord of the Tachyon Galaxy the cover card of a pack was released as Ghost Rare, with the exception of " Rainbow Neos " in Phantom Darkness . From Judgment of the Light onward, the Cover Cards are no longer automatically the Ghost Rare for the set—now the Ghost Rare can be any one of the Secret Rares featured in that set (the exception being " Dark Rebellion Xyz Dragon " in The New Challengers , and " Clear Wing Synchro Dragon " in " Crossed Souls " which were both a cover card and a Secret Rare). Starting with Breakers of Shadow , Ghost Rares are no longer going to be present in regular booster sets. "The Winged Dragon of Ra" has since been reprinted as a Ghost Rare in Legendary Duelists: Rage of Ra .

On the Official Card Database, this rarity is labelled as Holographic Rare.
