I Need a Title Here

We’re slowly chugging along on this updating the site. Currently working on Opus XIII, and things are going a lot smoother and faster than we thought it would. Hopefully we’ll have this all done by the time Dawn of Heroes comes out.

It would have been a lot faster, but since I’m doing the Site, TCGPlayer, and eBay all at the same time, it takes longer. You can blame eBay for that.

Other than that there’s not much going on as usual.

2 exciting things happened.

One of my keys fell off on this old laptop, and I had to figure out how to put it back together. Couple of videos later and I was able to get it back in. The hardest part was finding the right video for the right laptop. Having a laptop from 2009 didn’t help either.

The other … well I don’t know how exciting it was, but it was interesting. There was a man standing outside my window, picking his nose and eating his boogers. Yes, that was the highlight of that day. It was yesterday, actually.

Plus, I just saw Card of the Week Previews are back on the Square Enix Site. That must mean that Dawn of Heroes is right around the corner. And if Dawn of Heroes is right around the corner, that means Midnight PreRelease will soon be upon us.

Stay tuned for details.

OLPL Fan Fest Vol. 7 – Guardians of the Library

The Oak Lawn Fan Fest is actually right around the corner. 2 weeks away. And, you know that we will be there once again. We had a great time last year, giving away Pokemon balloons to all the kids.

This year we don’t know what we’ll be doing, but we know that we’ll be there trying to teach everyone how to play FFTCG. As well, as having something special for the kids.

The Fan Fest starts at 9AM, and goes on until 4PM.

Dissidia Collection

I just realized that the Dissidia Anniversary Collection is the Starter Set for Beyond Destiny. This whole time I thought that this was going to be just like the previous collection. But it is not. It’s just a Custom Starter Set, with an added 20 cards or so.

Yes, we haven’t seen any of the cards yet, but they did give us the numbers for the cards. And, they all start with 21.

21-125S – Onion Knight
21-126S – Cloud
21-127S – Firion
21-128S – Shantotto
21-129S – Terra
21-130S – Noctis
21-131S – Warrior of Light
21-132S – Cecil
21-133S – Tidus
21-134S – Bartz

And, let’s not forget the Full Art Premium Framed (that’s their own words) Y’shtola.

21-036H – Y’shtola

I wonder if it’s going to be a different kind of Foil, like they mentioned that Estinien would be?

Is this going to be a new way that Square Enix will be doing the Starter Sets, or will it be a one off? Maybe, a once a year Premium Set.

I do like that, the cards that they are reprinting in this collection, aren’t just reprints, but they are getting new artwork as well. Probably won’t cut into the prices of the original cards by that much.

And, the storage box is always nice. I mean who doesn’t need more storage to hold their cards? I know I do. I got cards lying around everywhere, but that’s a different story all together.

Midnight Pre-Release

With the Final Fantasy XIII Custom Starter Set coming out this week, that means we have the From Nightmares Midnight Pre-Release closer than we thought. Less than a month away. March, 18th 2023.

If you ask us we believe this set will be one for the record books. We’re already sold out of Booster Boxes, but that doesn’t mean we’re not going to try and get more. That Cloud Signature card is a collector’s dream, especially if you look at what Yuffie has been doing. But, back to the Midnight Pre-Release.

March 18th @ 12AM we will be handing out the kits for the tournament.

You’ll be able to come in early to play some casuals and hang out as we count down to 12AM. It’ll be like New Year’s Eve, but better.

It’ll be $45 to enter the tournament. Which will get you your first kit. After that the Kits will be $40 each.

Everyone will walk away with something. So, make your plans and come try and pull a Cloud Signature before everyone else.
Details on prizing will be up soon.

Boss Deck, Check. Sephiroth, Check.

How did we forget?

Well, we didn’t actually forget, but we still think it’s 2022.

The new Boss Deck is coming out in the next couple of days. And, we will have some. They are currently on their way. In a truck somewhere on the highway. And they could be on their way to you as well.

I remember when the first Boss Deck came out, we had some fun with it. Trying to take on 3 people is a beast of it’s own. Imagine being the Boss in a video game. You got to take the Light Warriors out, or in this case, AVALANCHE.

Keep an eye out for our unboxing video coming in the next few days, as we dive into a deck and check out what these cards look like.
