BLEACH Thousand-Year Blood War Vol. 3 (Union Arena EX15BT/BLC-4) has carried several high-reference-price cards on the secondhand market since release. Here are the 8 highest — from limited serial-numbered Action Point cards down to the top-starred prints within the standard SR rarity tier, with reference prices running from 500,000円 down to 35,000円. Every figure below is a Japan secondhand-market reference price, not a live quote and not an official Buy&Ship or Collect2Day valuation — for reference only.
TL;DR
- 8 of the highest-reference-price cards from BLEACH Thousand-Year Blood War Vol. 3 (Union Arena EX15BT/BLC-4), from 35,000円 to 500,000円.
- The top 2 aren’t standard SR cards at all — they’re limited serial-numbered Action Point cards (Ichigo Kurosaki, 500,000円; Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez, 400,000円).
- Every figure is a third-party Japan-market reference price — not a live quote, not a guaranteed sale price, and not an official Collect2Day valuation.
Why do Action Point cards cost so much more than a standard SR?
Action Point cards are Union Arena’s own insert-card format: each one carries its own individual serial number (a “NO.000” field printed on the card), rather than a standard gameplay rarity tier — closer in spirit to a lottery-style bonus than a pulled rarity, with a print run and distribution method entirely different from an SR. Both of this post’s highest-referenced cards (Ichigo Kurosaki, Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez) are this format, well above the same characters’ standard SR prints.
Within the standard SR rarity itself, a star count marks a further pull-rate split — more stars generally means a lower pull rate, and a higher reference price. The SR★★★ prints in this post (#3, #4) generally reference higher than the SR★★ prints (#5 through #8).

Ichigo Kurosaki Ichigo Kurosaki — Limited Serial-Numbered Action Point Card
EX15BT/BLC-4-AP01 · ★
Card notes
Action Point cards are Union Arena’s own lottery-style insert cards — each one carries its own individual serial number (a “NO.000” field on the card face) rather than a standard gameplay rarity tier, and they are printed in far smaller numbers than an SR pull. As BLEACH’s lead character, Ichigo Kurosaki on this serial-numbered print is the highest-referenced card of the 8 covered here.

Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez — Limited Serial-Numbered Action Point Card
EX15BT/BLC-4-AP02 · ★
Card notes
The same limited serial-numbered Action Point format, this time for Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez, the Gotei 13’s recurring adversary. The two Action Point cards in this post (#1 and #2) take the top two reference-price spots between them — a reflection of how scarce the Action Point insert format itself is, more than a direct ranking of character popularity.

This Ichigo Kurosaki print carries the highest star count within the standard SR rarity tier, SR★★★, with a signature-style card illustration. The star count on an SR print marks a further pull-rate split within that same rarity letter — more stars means a lower pull rate.

Japan-market reference price
38,000円〜
Search this card on Collect2Day ›Card notes
Grimmjow appears a second time in this post, this time as a standard SR★★ print rather than the limited serial-numbered Action Point card at #2 — the price gap between the two is a direct illustration of how much the Action Point insert format commands over a regular SR print of the same character.

About these reference prices
FAQ
Why are the two Action Point cards (Ichigo Kurosaki, Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez) so expensive?
Because they aren’t a standard gameplay rarity at all — they’re limited inserts carrying their own serial number, printed in far smaller numbers than an SR, making them one of the scarcer formats in Union Arena.
What’s the difference between SR★★★ and SR★★?
Both are the same SR rarity, but the star count marks a further pull-rate split within it — more stars generally means a lower pull rate, and in this post the SR★★★ prints (#3, #4) reference higher than the SR★★ prints (#5 through #8).
When was this compiled, and can I treat it as a guaranteed sale price?
