Market outlook
Stable Outlook 7/10
The promo version should remain collectible because event promos tend to hold a premium over regular set versions, but the presence of a normal print keeps upside more measured than truly exclusive chase cards. Prices are likely to be driven more by condition, foil status, and competitive promo interest than by gameplay demand alone.
Next months. Expect relatively stable pricing with occasional spikes for clean graded 10 or sealed promo copies, especially if promo supply remains thin.
Long term. Over 1-3 years, the card should likely maintain a modest premium over the standard print, with the foil Championship copies retaining the strongest collector value if the event promo remains relatively scarce.
History
Baymax is the inflatable personal healthcare robot from Disney’s Big Hero 6, originally introduced in the 2014 animated film. In Lorcana, this version emphasizes his medical support role through a healing-and-lore effect that removes damage from your other characters and rewards you with lore, matching his identity as a caretaker and protector.
First released as a Challenge promo card for Disney Lorcana Continentals on December 7, 2024, as card 9/C1. It was distributed in both foil and non-foil forms through Championship event prizing, with the foil version tied to Top 8 Championship placements and the non-foil version available through Turbo Zone participation at the European and North American Championship events.
- It is a Legendary Sapphire Character card with card number 9/C1 and is part of Disney Lorcana Promo Cards rather than a regular booster set.
- The same art treatment was used for related Championship accessories, including Baymax Challenge sleeves and a playmat.
- The card was first revealed in November 2024 and was associated with the European and North American Championship event structure.

Collector notes
Condition. Check for edge whitening, corner wear, surface scratches, foil scuffing, and centering. Promo copies can also show handling wear from event distribution, and the non-foil version may still have subtle print or surface defects from packaging or storage.
Storage. Use a penny sleeve plus a rigid top loader or semi-rigid holder for raw copies, and store away from light, humidity, and heat. For foil promo copies, avoid friction and stacking, since surface scratching and edge wear are the most common issues.
Authenticity. Verify the exact promo numbering 9/C1, the correct Challenge promo styling, and the official Disney Lorcana print quality. Counterfeits often show blurry text, poor color balance, incorrect card stock, or off-center borders; the foil version should also show the expected promo-specific finish rather than standard booster foil treatment.
