New #yugioh 15th Anniv. box just arrived, pictures feat. old school cards!
It just arrived this morning and I have to say, I'm very pleased with it. Despite the recent drop in print quality, I'm happy to report that these ones are a huge improvement over the recent Primal Origins cards. Even though it does not have the more solid plastic(?) coating of the older boosters, at least these cards are not damaged out of the box.
Anyway, the pictures!

| The box that it all comes in. Very usable for card storage too and when you open it... |
 |
| The actual deck box itself is amazing. Gold, shiny, textured and very solid. Very Yugi. |
 |
| Box contents with sleeves. So nostalgic. |
 |
| Close up of the sleeves. Very awesome sleeve design, especially if you grew up with the original series with Yugi. |
This box is definitely more on the side of nostalgia rather than usability, with most of the cards being somewhat meh for actual play. On the other hand, shiny Exodia and Exodia parts! This is what I've been waiting for to make an Exodia deck. The card box, sleeves and shiny token are bonuses too. This is a must-have for old school Yugioh fans but I think any Yugioh fans would be pretty pleased to get their hands on this anyway.
Edit to add: this item was released in very small numbers (relatively speaking). All preorders were filled from the start and its price has jumped from it's retail of roughly US$25 to US$70 in a number of second hand stores I've been looking at.
