Sealed Expedition Base Set on TCGplayerMaster set: 323 printings
Expedition Base Set has 165 cards, but a master set chases every printing — 133 normal · 32 holo · 158 reverse holo. Reverse holos are why the number jumps: most commons and uncommons exist twice, once normal and once reverse. That works out to 36 full 9-pocket pages.

How many cards are in a Expedition Base Set master set?
A master set means one of every printing, not one of every card number — so Expedition Base Set's 165 cards become 323 printings: 133 normal, 32 holo, 158 reverse holo. Reverse holos are the reason the number jumps; most commons and uncommons exist in both a normal and a reverse-holo version.
How much does it cost to complete Expedition Base Set?
Buying one of each card as singles costs about $16,000 at current TCGplayer market prices (prices as of 2026/08/16). That counts one regular printing per card, not reverse-holo variants, and buying singles is almost always cheaper than chasing a complete set from packs.
