1.0 out of 5 stars True Yu Gi Oh TCG enthusiasts, prepare to be dissapointed., August 5, 2006

This review is from: Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Catalog (Prima Official Card Catalog) (Paperback)

I recently purchased this book under the false impression that it contained every card from the entire Yu Gi Oh series and the first season of Yu Gi Oh GX!; however, even though this book was published in 2004, it is far from "The Most Up-To-Date Card Catalog" it claimed to be. Not only did they fail to include more than 325 cards from the Yu Gi Oh! TCG (some of them may have only been used in the series itself), but also several cards from the Yu Gi Oh! GX! TCG as well (again, some are probably series exclusive), bringing the grand total to a mind- blowing 728 (more-or-less). Among the latter was what I believe to be the greatest injustice to true Yu Gi Oh! GX! TCG fans (myself included) done yet; there are currently 25 known Elemental Heroes (which are the staple of Jayden Yuki's deck), and this book only lists 6! So, in con clusion, True Yu Gi Oh! TCG enthusiasts, I leave you with this plea: don't waste your money on this insult to true Yu Gi Oh! fans everywhere; wait for an even more up-to-date issue. Hopefully they'll come out with one AFTER Yu Gi Oh! GX! ends and not make the same mistake they did with Yu Gi Oh! -releasing a "compilation on an unsuspecting fan-base NEARLY A YEAR before the series ended. Even though I'm rating this book 1 out of 5 stars, it is (in my oppinion) MUCH LESS DESERVING!

1.0 out of 5 stars severely lacking, May 19, 2007

This review is from: Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Catalog (Prima Official Card Catalog) (Paperback)

This book, while perhaps being the most up-to-date card list when it was first published, is nowhere near as updated today. Perhaps the publishers will come out with a new book that truly is a complete (as of the time it is published) list of every card out there.
