Did You Notice That?

Well, if you take a look at the top of the site, or in the menu if you’re on your phone, you’ll notice a little button that says TCGPlayer Shop. And we know that some people don’t like ordering from little shops like us, so we decided to give them another option.

That’s just one reason. As you already know Kardboard Korner’s main focus is Final Fantasy. And, this helps us list Singles from other games, without having to load up the site with tens of thousands of different cards that would just bog down the site.

Need more reasons? It gives us the answer to how we are going to post the Foils and Full Arts without having to create separate listings for each one. And we know you all like your foils and Full Arts.
We’re going to have a busy weekend once again.

And that’s just how we like it.

Hidden Hopes

Square-Enix just announced a new set. And, shockingly it’s a FFVII box. Who would have guessed? I’m guessing every time they decide to start on a new set, they just flip a coin if it’s Heads it’s a Final Fantasy VII themed box.

But, you can’t lie. You know you get excited, when you see it. Zack and Aerith share the spotlight with Hidden Hope. A 128 card set, with 28 Full Arts, a Special card, and a Crystal. 28 Full Arts? That’s 2-3 Full Arts per Booster Box.

What you really want to know is who is on the Gold Stamped card. Everyone’s favorite Mama’s Boy, Sephiroth, in original art work by Gen Kobayashi. It is a good looking card as you can see for yourself.

We’re also getting a new mechanic with this set, which from the looks of it, allows you to have a side deck. We don’t have much news about this, other than that the first card revealed to have this ability is a fire, Zack and Aerith card. Will this card be like the Tidus & Yuna card we received a while back or will it be just Zack, Cause I don’t see Aerith having the Fire Element by herself.

Other cards shown are Auron, Gilgamesh, Basch, Squall, Lulu, Folka and Helena.

Legacy cards are back. Fat Chocobo (4-064L), Chaos (16-129L) and another Sephiroth (18-116L). I like these Legacy cards when they have different art, rather than just slapping full art on them.
