# Wild Force vs Cyber Judge: which Japanese box should you choose? - Bron / source: https://www.kaikancards.com/en/blogs/news/wild-force-vs-cyber-judge - Shop: Kaikan Cards, https://www.kaikancards.com (AI-home: https://www.kaikancards.com/pages/ai) - Author: Chris de Rooden - Published: 2026-11-10 · updated: 2026-11-10 - Tags: kopen, set:SV5K, set:SV5M, sets, vergelijking - Summary: Two sister sets from January 26, 2024, with the same structure. Wild Force has the broader top, Cyber Judge the most expensive single card. Short answer: Wild Force has the broader value, with six cards of €27 or more. Cyber Judge has one clear top card, Bianca's Devotion SAR (about €69), but drops off quickly below it. Both sets were released on January 26, 2024. They brought ACE SPEC cards back into the game and together form the second Paradox duo: Wild Force with the 'ancient', Cyber Judge with the 'future' Paradox Pokémon. ## The two sets side by side Wild Force (SV5K) | Cyber Judge (SV5M) | Theme | Paradox Pokémon from the past | Paradox Pokémon from the future | Figureheads | Raging Bolt ex, Walking Wake ex, Gouging Fire ex | Iron Crown ex, Iron Leaves ex, Iron Boulder ex | Most expensive card | Morty's Conviction SAR — €45 | Bianca's Devotion SAR — €69 | Cards worth €25+ | 6 | 2 | Cards in the set | 100 (71 + 29 secret) | 100 (71 + 29 secret) | Box contents | 30 packs × 5 cards | 30 packs × 5 cards | ACE SPEC per box | normally 1 | normally 1 | Odds of a SAR | about 1 in 5 to 6 boxes | about 1 in 5 to 6 boxes | _Values: indicative market value of single cards, ungraded. PriceCharting, as of October 21, 2026._ ## Where's the difference? **Wild Force** has a broad top. Next to Morty's Conviction, the Raging Bolt ex, Walking Wake ex and Gouging Fire ex SARs are all between €27 and €39. More important if you open a box: two cards that aren't SARs also count. You pull the Gengar ex SR (about €34) and the Gastly AR (about €27) more often than a SAR, because a box usually contains one SR and three Art Rares. **Cyber Judge** revolves around one card. Bianca's Devotion SAR is worth more than twice as much as number two, the Iron Crown ex SAR. Below that, most hits are around €5 to €10. The set does contain Prime Catcher, the most expensive ACE SPEC of the duo, and you normally pull it once per box in the ACE SPEC slot — though it's one out of three possible. ## Why not just Temporal Forces? In English, both sets were combined into _Temporal Forces_ (March 22, 2024). There you open the cards from both halves mixed together, in a larger set. In Japanese, you choose which half to open. More about those differences in [Japanese vs English cards](/en/blogs/news/japans-of-engels-verschillen). ## Our advice - **Want the best chance of a valuable card?** Wild Force: more cards at the top, and the SR and AR hits count too. - **Going for the one big hit?** Cyber Judge, with Bianca's Devotion as the most expensive card of the duo. - **Do you collect Gengar?** Wild Force, without a doubt. In both sets a SAR isn't a sure thing: on average there's one in five to six boxes. Buy a box for the opening, not for the expected return.
