Update 04-11-2021:

The set description of Brilliant Stars reveals new VMAX cards: Mimikyu VMAX and Aggron VMAX, and the earlier revealed Kingler VMAX from the Japanese Start Deck 100. Check it out below in the article.

There are no new cards fully revealed, the revealed cards are the same as today's Star Birth reveal in Japan we have covered this morning.

Charizard V & Charizard VSTAR, along with Moltres and new Trainer cards named Cheren's Care (which has the effect of Burning Shadows Acerola, but for Colorless Pokemon), Kindler, Magma Basin and Double Turbo Energy are in this set. Arceus V & Arceus STAR were teased a while ago.

Shaymin VSTAR and Whimsicott VSTAR are confirmed to be in Brilliant Stars. That makes a total 4 VSTAR cards as mentioned in the set descriptions. These two aforementioned cards are yet unrevealed.

However, VMAX cards are still mentioned in this set and the 'Trainer Gallery subset' might strongly suggest CHR & CSR cards from S8b VMAX Climax are in Brilliant Stars. But that's still unconfirmed.
