Promos
~~~~~~~
Each tin comes with one of these

Blade Knight
Light
4 Stars
ATK/1600 DEF/1000
[Warrior/Effect]
If you have 1 or less cards in your hand, the ATK of this card on the field is increased by 400 points. Also, if this card is the only monster on your side of the field, negate the effects of Flip Effect Monsters destroyed by this card as a result of battle.

Hands tend to get empty and the field cards start to be destroyed, so this card's effect is useful. 1600 ATK is also good for a 4 star. This card is all over the tourneys.

Command Knight
Fire
4 Stars
ATK/1200 DEF/1900
[Warrior/Effect]
As long as at least 1 other monster exists on your side of the field. you opponent cannot select this card as an attack target. Also, as long as this card remains face-up on the field, increase the ATK of all Warrior-Type monsters by 400 points.

1900 DEF is great. This can help warrior decks greatly. A good combo is to have two of these on the field. 2 2000 ATK beatsticks that cannot be destroyed in battle is nothing to scoff at. Its also a FIRE type, so it will work in FIRE decks.

Insect Queen
Earth
7 Stars
ATK/2200 DEF/2400
[Insect/Effect]
You cannot declare an attack without offering 1 monster on your side of the field as a Tribute. Increase the ATK of this card by 200 points for each face-up Insect-Type monster on the field. Special Summon 1 "Insect Monster Token" (Insect-Type/Earth/1 Star/ATK 100/DEF 100) in Attack Position on your side of the field at the end of each turn that this card destroys your opponent's Monster.

Insect Queen gives itself ATK power for each insect monster which can put it up to 3200 ATK. It also creates insect tokens, which Insect Queen gets boosted up by. You can use the tokens for a combo, an offering for a powerful monster, and offer it for an effect.

Obnoxious Celtic Guardian
Earth
4 Stars
ATK/1400 DEF/1200
[Warrior/Effect]
This card is not destroyed as a result of battle when this card battles with a monster with an ATK of 1900 or more. (Damage calculation is applied normally.)

Most people either use monsters with ATK higher than 1800 or monsters under 1400 ATK in their decks. This won't be destroyed easily.

Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight
Dark
7 Stars
ATK/2300 DEF/2100
[Warrior/Effect]
If this is the only card in your hand, you can Summon this card in face-up Attack Position without offering monsters as Tributes. This is treated as a Normal Summon.

Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight has a big gun with its 2300 ATK and 2100 DEF. It will be summoned easily because hands tend to get low.

Total Defense Shogun
Dark
6 Stars
ATK/1550 DEF/2500
[Warrior/Effect]
This card is changed to Defense Position when it is Normal Summoned or Flip Summoned successfully. This card can attack while in Defense Position. If this card attacks while in Defense Position, apply the ATK of this card for damage calculation.

It would be safe from battle damage while being attacked. Mirror Force won't work on him. 2500 is a good defense. It is good to stall for a strategy you need while it can attack to set up your strategy.

Good for protecting cards and storing stuff you need.


YUGIOH 2004 TIN.... Making duelist's decks better

This tin insures you a new card. I recommend you buy all of them. That's right ALL of them. It's what I did. If not buy either Blade Knight( Yellow ), Obnoxious Celtic Guard ( Light Green), or Command Knight ( Purple). Hope you enjoy the contents of your tin! Keep Dueling! P.S. It says kid's review, I'm 13.

I've been buying cards for a year now from local stores and it seems that everybody gets lucky, but me. I even went as far as to buy one tin and two special edition boxes at once (For a total of 11 booster packs), and aside from the Promos I only got 1 Ultra and 1 Super! Imagine my frustration.

Now, this is the second time I buy a box with an assorted set of boosters packs from Amazon and let me just say that it was worth every single penny. I have no explanation for this phenomenon, but 3 out of the 5 boosters have contained either an Ultra or a Super in both purchases.

The first time, I bought 5 Packs Plus and I got Luster Dragon #2, Skilled White Magician and Buster Blader. Now this time I got Stone Statue Of The Aztecs, Blast Held By A Tribute and Paladin Of White Dragon. And the tin can they send me was Obnoxious Celtic Guardian.

Another great deal is its price. The grand total made it raise nearly up to $30, but that still is cheap, considering that where I live the grand total is as high as $40!

The only reason why I don't give this item the five stars, it's because you can't pick the tin that you want. So it's all random and you won't know what tin they send you until you finally receive the package.

But considering all the good cards I've gotten from this packs and the price, I can live without that little option of not being able to pick your tin. So if your tired of not getting any good cards then I seriously recommend you this item. GO FOR IT!

I got an Insect Queen tin and I pulled out the following below.

Pharaonic Guardian: Gora Turtle
Magician's Force: Z Metal Tank
Dark Crisis: Archfiend Soldier
Invasion of Chaos: Mad Dog of Darkness
Ancient Sanctuary: Soul Resurrection

Like I said before, buy this. You will be surprised.

I don't know how many times I've seen other websites or WAL-MART or some other store dramatically spike the prices on these things! At my WAL-MART they cost $30! I also went to another website selling the God cards for $120 each! What people take advantage of to make a buck blows my mind! I mean the cards probably only cost two cents to make for Konami, and the price just escalates from there. Also, those so-called "rare" cards aren't really rare. The card company can crank out as many of the "good cards" as they want. I wouldn't suggest falling for the Yu-Gi-Oh fad, unless you want to go into debt really fast. But, if you are seriously into the game and want to compete, I suggest buying cards from here because not only has amazon brought the cost down to $20, they brought it down even further! GO AMAZON!! YOU GUYS ROCK!!

IT IS PRETTY GOOD. THE VARIANT CARD WAS SWIFT GAIA. I GOT ALOT OF GOOD CARDS LIKE ALL THREE THAT'S RIGHT ALL THREE HARPIE LADY SISTERS, JUDGEMENT OF ANUBIS,& DIFFUSION WAVE MOTION. NOW LET ME SAY THIS: IF YOU WANT A GRAVEKEPPERES DECK THEN THIS IS THE THING FOR YOU!

First of all, Blade Knight is not bad! It is good! The 2004 tins come to us in the new 3-D format. Like the other tins, they came out with 5 Booster Packs, plus a varient card. The 2002 and 2003 tins had cards that came from packs as promos. The 2004 tins are different. Now, there are 6 different monsters as the promos. They are: Blade Knight, Total Defence Shogun, Command Knight, Obnoxious Celtic Guardian, Swift Gaia the Fierce Knight and Insect Queen. The tins come with 5 booster packs from Pharaonic Guardian, Magicians Force, Dark Crisis, Invasion of Chaos and Ancient Sanctuary.
Pharaonic Guardian have very strong support for zombie decks because they have: Fushioh Richie, Spirit Reaper, Reaper on the Nightmare. It also has great burn cards, such as Ring of Destruction,Barrel Behind the Door. This set introduces the Gravekeepers.
Magician's Force comes with strong spellcasters. Support for Spellcaster decks come from this pack. Dark Magicians will have support with cards such as: Skilled Dark Magician,Dark Magician Girl. Massive Monster Removal comes from the Tribe Infecting Virus, a super rare in this pack.
Dark Crisis throws at us the first common 1850 4 star monster, Gagagigo. Dark Crisis introduces the Guardian monsters (e.g., you have to play Shooting Star Bow-Ceal to play Guardian Ceal). This pack also comes out with the rare 1900 attacker, Archfiend Soldier :). This pack focuses on Dark monsters, hence the name.
Invasion of Chaos sends Chaos Monsters into the Card Game. Light and Dark monsters are the theme for this booster pack. The backbone for this pack are two cards: Black Luster Soldier-Envoy of the Beginning and Chaos Emperor Dragon-Envoy of the End. More 1900+ attackers coming this way!
Ancient Sanctuary have tons of 1 star monsters. It introduces the Monarchs with Zaborg the Thunder Monarch. This pack makes Fairies more playable. More fairies=Brute Force. Also, this pack has Enemy Controller, Berserk Gorilla's worst nightmare. This pack focuses on Light monsters mainly.
