Brightness of Hope two weeks in: most alternate arts fell, the Shallet leader climbed 38 %

Brightness of Hope came out on October 16. Two weeks later, the Dragon Ball Super Fusion World set has done what most new sets do: the first prices were the highest, and almost every alternate art has come down since. Almost. A handful of cards went the other way, and the most interesting one on the top of the list is not a leader at all.

All prices below are the ones shown on TCGIndex's card pages on October 30, 2026 (TCGplayer market price, US dollars, Near Mint). The changes compare today's price with the first price on each card's own history, which starts between October 17 and October 22 depending on the card. Two weeks is short, so read the moves as the launch settling, not as a trend.

The most expensive Brightness of Hope cards

1. Son Goku FB11-121 (Alternate Art, Secret Rare): $224.00
2. Son Goku FB11-001 (Alternate Art, Leader): $215.50
3. Goku Black FB11-049 (Alternate Art, Leader): $149.50
4. Bulma FB11-094 (Alternate Art, Rare): $135.64
5. Shallot/Giblet // Shallet (Alternate Art, Leader): $110.00
6. Trunks : Future/Son Gohan : Future (Alternate Art, Leader): $82.25
7. Bardock FB11-097 (Alternate Art, Leader): $74.50
8. Trunks : Future FB11-036 (Alternate Art, Super Rare): $74.44
9. Bardock FB11-123 (Alternate Art, Secret Rare): $61.99
10. Son Goku FB11-011 (Alternate Art, Super Rare): $57.99

One card is left out on purpose. The Son Goku FB11-121 Super Alternate Art shows $300.00 on its page, a price that has not refreshed since release day, while the points recorded on its history slid from $299.99 on October 20 to $200.00 on October 29. Until those two agree, we do not rank it.

The odd one in the top five is Bulma. It is a Rare, not a leader or a Secret Rare, and its alternate art costs more than every leader in the set except Goku and Goku Black. It has barely moved either: $145.00 on October 19, $135.64 today.

Where the launch prices came down

• Bloodstained Vow (Alternate Art, Super Rare): $56.99 on October 19, $21.47 today, down 62 %
• Trunks : Future FB11-037 (Alternate Art, Super Rare): $80.00, $40.98, down 49 %
• Son Goku FB11-090 (Alternate Art, Super Rare): $40.50, $28.00, down 31 %
• Son Gohan : Future FB11-032 (Alternate Art, Rare): $40.00, $28.00, down 30 %
• Bardock's Crew FB11-115 (Alternate Art): $37.97, $27.47, down 28 %
• Trunks : Future FB11-036 (Alternate Art, Super Rare): $100.00, $74.44, down 26 %
• Son Goku FB11-121 (Alternate Art, Secret Rare): $300.00 on October 17, $224.00, down 25 %
• Bardock FB11-123 (Alternate Art, Secret Rare): $76.95, $61.99, down 19 %
• Bardock FB11-097 (Alternate Art, Leader): $89.89, $74.50, down 17 %

The Trunks pair says a lot about release week. Two Super Rare alternate arts of the same character both opened at $80 to $100. One has kept three quarters of that price, the other has lost half.

The ones that went up

• Shallot/Giblet // Shallet (Alternate Art, Leader): $80.00 on October 19, $110.00 today, up 38 %
• Shallet (Alternate Art, Secret Rare): $33.89, $40.00, up 18 %
• Trunks : Future/Son Gohan : Future (Alternate Art, Leader): $74.99, $82.25, up 10 %
• Son Gohan : Future FB11-033 (Alternate Art, Super Rare): $26.50, $28.50, up 8 %

Two of the four risers are Shallet cards, and the leader is the biggest rise in the set. When a leader climbs while the set around it falls, the reason is often is that people are building the deck, not only opening packs for the art. The plain Shallot alternate art did not follow ($29.11 to $22.70), so this is about the leader and its Secret Rare, not the character as a whole.

The set value

The set page values the 160 tracked cards at $2,216 today. The two Gokus at the top account for about a fifth of that on their own.

What it means if you play or collect

• If you play, most of the Super Rare alternate arts we track with full history are already 20 to 60 % under their release-week price.
• If you want the Shallet leader, it is the one card here that has moved against the drop. Check the card page before you buy, two weeks of history is thin.
• If you trade, the gap between two prints of the same character is close to two to one in this set (Trunks : Future FB11-036 against FB11-037). Read the exact card number, not the name.
