Release Special Booster 1.5 was the 2021 reprint wave of the Digimon Card Game's BT01–BT03 card pool, printed with its own parallel rares. Packs hold twelve cards and boxes 24 packs. Its priced list is smaller than 1.0's and its sealed product cheaper, and the parallels are what separate it from the original release for collectors deciding which version to open.

Each pack is modeled with a Rare slot plus one hit slot: a Super Rare that upgrades to a Secret Rare about once per 24-pack box; the release predates the Special and Ultimate Rare tiers. The alternate-art BlackWarGreymon Secret Rare is the clear target, with alt-art Omnimon Alter-S and Imperialdramon Dragon Mode Secrets and the alt-art Mastemon and ShineGreymon Super Rares behind it.

Two products are tracked, the loose pack and the 24-pack box. The Regionals Paildramon and DC-1 Grand Prix Veedramon near the top of the price list are prize and event cards, not booster pulls, so they don't count toward pack value.
