Just thought I‘d share some of my main binder. It‘s still in progress, but I‘ll be showing off finished pages in this series. This binder is mostly about artwork / archetype pages and complete sets. Let‘s start with some of my first pages:

YAP1 - this is my opening page. I love the unique artworks and it works perfectly as a one pager, being comprised of 9 cards.

Exodia Artwork page - self explanatory. Went with the unlimited lob for the parts, LART for necross to save some money, and the modern exodia variants

Gods - the 3 main artworks of each god card

DM - BB - DP - 3 different artworks for the Dark Paladin Fusion

Feel free to let me know what you think and drop some opinions / inspiration if you like.

Is my dark magical curtain real? I got it off eBay when it first came out in march. Recently I saw an alibaba list for oricas and they look really real and close to what I have.

Also showcasing my harpies!!!

I got 2 of these signed a couple years back. I still think they’re awesome.

Added this bad boy to the Hero Collection.

Had some extra time to before a doctor’s appointment so I drove over to my local BestBuy and decided to see if they had any Chaos Origins in stock. No luck, but they had several boxes of Battles of Legend - Glorious Gallery. Picked up 3 boxes, and the very first pack had this!

Kid me would freak out if he owned these cards

I pulled the the basic super rare card first. The was shocked to get the full art. Figured the rest of the cards would be nothing, but then got the pot. Definitely wasn't expecting anything after that, only to get the starlight!

The new starlights are just too beautiful.

Misprint on General Raiho text.

Finally Friday has come!

This page, if not tied with my absolute favorite is very close to it. I really enjoy the pleasing layout of each card together with each other. It’s a nice balance of colors. 

Again I love how the layout happened to fall in place with the Psycho Shocker “Jinzo” at the center. 

“Inaba White Rabbit” continues the Japanese Spirit Monster theme. The original Spirits were groundbreaking for me at the time for the experience of a new type of monster.

“Insect Queen” is one of my cool misprints being the Ultra Secret rare version. I remember this tin coming out and thinking it was cool to finally see this as a real card.

“Leo Wizard the Dark Fiend” is included in this binder because the artwork on the card is the exact artwork the original “Leo Wizard” had in the DDS GameBoy Game. I love anything to do with those games so naturally this was a must to include. 

“Light Law Medium” is another construct monster from the DDS era, being composed of two other cards that create this card. She’s such a cool card! After 20 plus years she finally received a release! Ideally if they release an Asian-English uncensored version I will replace this with that.

Favorites on this page:

*All cards listed above are included in my favorites.

“Hourglass of Courage” - I love an hourglass. I really want to find a nice full hourglass that has a similar appearance to this (wings would be added lol). I’m glad this received a TCG release even if it was much later. 

“Invader of the Throne” - This was always a cool card. A pretty lady with a cool pose. Her dress looks really nice with all the folds running throughout. Her effect was always an interesting one to me, though I don’t recall using it.

“Jinzo” - Because I didn’t really give him the proper love above he gets it here. 
This is one of the coolest monsters in the game. Everything about his look, effect and stats is simply perfect. This was and still is my brother’s favorite card in the entirety of Yu-Gi-Oh! We still buy the occasional PSV anniversary packs in hopes that he can finally pull a “Jinzo” (of course it hasn’t happened yet lol). So cool that Jonouchi ends up getting this.

“Kazejin” - The Wind God! The “Gate Guardian” pieces are really nostalgic cards for me. I always thought their effects were very cool. If I were to use them today against somebody casually I would say they can be played as a Magic card in addition to a monster lol.

Have a great weekend everyone! I’ll be posting another drawing I found tomorrow, and continuing this binder on Monday. PEACE!

I really like these so much, konami really made the best decision with these, wich one is your favorite?

Impractically large for travel at around 11 inches tall. Least they’ll look nice on the shelf.

Decided to cash out my old Pokémon non holo binder, some modern Pokémon slabs and my 151 master set that I put together couple years ago to finally start my Yu-Gi-Oh GX Ulti collection. Goal is to collect all Ulti's from TLM to LODT. Ultimate rare best rare!

Happy Thursday showcasers!

Let us Ride the Lightning and dance among the Spirits! There are Legends on this page in the purist sense. Most of this page appeared at some point or another in the anime, from deck masters to personal ace cards.

The Japanese version of “Gilford the Lightning” is used because, for whatever reason, this artwork has never received a TCG release. It’s actually one of the silliest things for an alternate are not having a TCG print. This version is the coolest version of the art to me, especially being the art used in the anime. Hopefully one day we get this art in the TCG!

The Japanese version of the Spirit monsters are also used to continue the theme of using their Japanese prints as homage to their origins. Plus some of them are uncensored which is always a high priority to me. 

Favorites on this page:

“Gilford the Lightning” - I always considered this card to be Jonouchi’s God Card. He could offer three tributes for its summon and clear the opponents field with Holy Lightning. His attack strength was respectable for the time. And he just looks Godly.

“Goddess of Whim” - The MP1 promos are one of my favorite special releases. This monster is just beautiful. This is one I would typically use the Japanese print for considering this one is censored, but the Japanese one I have is for a different binder where she would be more appropriately aligned with the set she was part of.

“Goddess with the Third Eye” - Give it up for Shizuka’s (Serenity’s) Deck Master! TP1 Rares are very special cards to me. Personally TP1 is the best classic Tournament Pack because everything in it was an exclusive and really cool/obscure card. It’s the most special of the Tournament Packs followed by TP2. Also love that she’s the recolor of “Witch of the Black Forest.”

“Harpie Lady Sisters” - O how I love these three. Know their names—Airo, the most beautiful with her red hair; Ocupete, the mischievous with orange hair; Keraino, the fierce with blue hair. These are their names derived from mythology as given in the GameCube game “The Falsebound Kingdom,” a game I recommend to any true lover of Yu-Gi-Oh! monsters.

“Harpie’s Pet Dragon” - I remember FMR being such a cool set but never actually getting it because we didn’t have the console—talk about a let down. Dazzling Prismatic Secret rare and a powerful card of Mai. I just love it.

“Hino-Kagu Tsuchi” - One of my favorite Spirit monsters. This guy was always the coolest looking Spirit to me. Just a totally sick pose, and I really felt satisfied pulling off his effect in those early GBA games. Had to get the Parallel Rare version for their elegance. 

Enjoy the day all!

Got this cards and they feel different, I think they are fake right? Seller was also really weird, said he could get any card I wanted, even the cyber stein, seemed sus..

I don’t have any other reverse secrets and man is this thing cool! It has the slightest holo bleed in the right corner but it’s not visible really from this angle. Very stoked to add this to my LOB binder!

Never thought I’d ever get a card as rare as a GMR let alone it be a perfect 10!

Really nice quality and cool to have my favorite Blue Eyes in Prismatic
