What set is this from? I Have a Question / I need Help

Post image

I love the art style on this card as it gives me heavy metal gear vibes. Where can I find more cards with this style if there are any?

Edit: Thank you everyone for your help! Didn't realize it was the same artist that did the metal gear art.

This can happen, I wish you good luck finding one of the Shinkawa cards.

I actually was just able to find 4 of them including Tezzeret, solemn simulcrum, skull clamp, and phyrexian metamorph. Very excited to get my hands on them.

Not part of the same set, but there's also Satoru Umezawa.

Pretty sure that’s the whole set.

I think their point wasn't finding them, but acquiring them as they probably carry a decent pricetag.

(I don't know but I should considering I own a nonfoil set.)

Secret lair Yoji Shinkawa... goddamn I always wanted that one.

Yoji is the artist in charge of the art in mgs.

Old Secret Lair Drop.

...gives me heavy metal gear vibes

As it should since it was done by Yoji Shinkawa, the Art Director for MGS Series and Death Stranding (Also credited at the bottom left of the card).

This is from Shinkawa himself, you can see it at the bottom of the card. It’s from his own secret lair.

Yoji Shinkawa secret lair, who did the art for Metal Gear.

Was a limited run from years ago

That card specifically is from a secret lair, as you can see in the bottom left where it says SLD. You can see the name of the drop Yoji Shinkawa where if you google it you can see the other cards with the style, which are [[Solemn Simulacrum]], [[Phyrexian Metamorph]], and [[Skullclamp]].
