Yup, the Walmart nearest to me stopped stocking all cards back early spring. They already make very little on selling TCG but pair that with degenerates stealing all of it... It was just empty boxes on the shelves. So pathetic.
The fact that we got one of the best sets of the late 00’s in the states is so great. I was still a little kid in 2008 and didn’t know what I wanted in life, and now I ave the chance to correct that choice.

If light of destruction is in the US, i hope retro pack comes to Europe. Also the UK doesn’t have Walmart but we have a store called ASDA which is owned by Walmart and they do sell YuGiOh! Cards there thankfully.
Surprisingly, Walmart actually sold Asda to private investors in 2021, although they do still have some sort of relationship/equity investment with them.
It's wild to see Light of Destruction finally hitting Walmart in the US! I thought it was going to stay an EU exclusive for sure. The mystery behind how these releases are being handled is so intriguing. Can't wait to see what other surprises come our way-fingers crossed for that Judgment Dragon pull next time!
This got me a bit pissed. We never get anything exclusive for us. Usually it is NA or Japan. Never or super super rarily EU. Because when has EU ever gotten NA exclusives. We haven't. I will tell you we will not get the retro packs here. I am happy NA fans will get it too because the set is very cool, don't get me wrong. But it makes me upset that EU never gets exclusives in any card game and when we finally do it always goes to other countries a few weeks or a month or so later. So it isn't exclusive. it isn't for us specifically.
Yeah, I'm not European but generally speaking... If they had just given both territories them, but released Retro Pack in European Territories at the same time they released LoD here, it would of harbored a lot more good will from the community. This feels just like blatant backstabbing from Konami for European Fans.
I walked in Walmart and saw a bunch of light of destruction and retro pack on the shelves. It's so nice to have these old sets available but I really wish I could get booster boxes for msrp instead of buying a bunch of 4 packs at a time.
Love the opening and pulls, I wish my Walmart was stacked like yours! I think it's pretty cool to see it's not a region exclusive product and it's nice to see Jaden on the cover of a box!
I think this was an unannounced bonus. People just discovered these but Konami never announced these on their socials. They did say that Europe would get the full booster boxes. SE for america seems like a big thing now
I love this. Reprints are always welcomed. Might need to import some of this into Canada, Retro Pack was impossible to find. Walmart wasn't carrying it and Gamestop was always sold out.
I think Konamani (Konami lol) maybe just felt bad for not releasing it in America too aha, who knows? Im going to have to see if this set dropped in Canada too! 🔥
Retro pack has been what i've been hoping for since I got back into collecting in 2021. The new card layout doesn't do it for me so I did buy the reprinted Duel Monsters era booster boxes but I just left em sealed. I just wish they would be more transparent with the releasing so I could effectively give them more money! I really want to buy the booster boxes but acquiring them seems like a game of chance. I definitely would have spent more on this set if I could just easily buy the booster boxes lol.
I think they are made in Belgium (standard place in the EU, like it’s written on), but in displays of 24 boosters (standard booster box), then shipped to US and repacked into those retail boxes with 4 boosters. They are not the usual retail boxes you get in the EU. EU has just “Tuckboxes” with 3 boosters in it for retail. So I think, they get the new packaging in the US later on.
Bought the last 3 light of destruction boxes at my Walmart. Pulled 1 secret rare dark general freed, 1 ultimate rare phantom dragon, 1 ultra rare lyla lightsworn sorceress, 1 subsitoad and 3 jinzo returner's from 12 packs.
Saw them a couple days back while looking for more retropack and got 5 lotd mini boxes. I really think both reprints are great. I have spend more than I planned for both😅
I like this! I definitely want to go look for some now, but MAN I wish my target and walmart card sections looked like the ones you got like seriously 😂
It's a good thing Light of Destruction reprint have a US version too and it's box is actually better than the EU one with 3 packs, because it only have Honest on it, but this have Jaden on the package too, just like on 24 packs box.
I was super excited to see this at Walmart the other day. Love to collect sealed items and was not super excited to buy a pack of this on TCG Player for a premium and wait for it to be shipped from Europe 😂
Cool product! I've been interested in Lightsworn for a while now. This situation feels like the Realm of Light structure reprint. It was only available in EU and then sorta randomly showed up here in the US? Idk...
I’m from the uk and I’m soo annoyed 😂 where’s my reprint retro pack now? It better come to us here also. Nobody please tell me it already did 16 years ago 🤣
Due to family, I don't have the opportunity to really go check stores anymore, and when I do, they are sold out. So, I end up paying more online for products. And my area is terrible for products to begin with. I love GX, but these pull rates are brutal, I might get 1 or 2 but that's it. They need to make these fun like Retro pack, going forward reprint sets should double holo pull rates.
Watching these made me realize how lucky I was with my pulls. I thought the pull rates were juiced like retro pack. Pulled ghost honest, fossil dyna, super recharge and some other sweet ultras out of 4 boxes
I found BOTH an ulti Destiny End Dragoon AND the ghost rare Honest in a single box! Walmart came in clutch! Also, based on the information, the cards were printed and packaged in the EU, while the external box packaging was made in the US. Last, I heard that regarding boxes and cases of RP01, you had to order from Konami like you do for OTS boxes. Not sure how accurate that is, though.
Nice packs and some nice pulls. We have Walmart in the UK but under the name of Asda and they sell limited yugioh products mainly structure decks, tins and single packs which vary from store to store.
I know the distributor for my local store is a company known by MJ holdings, maybe Konomi just wanted to pump these retro packs in to the wild for a future announcement.
Someone at Konami thought we were still a British colony 😂
You still are like it or not, your ancestors were all englishmans, you can't be from any other nation than to english one, you aren't alien.

There aint such a thing as an american ethnicity anyway lmao
The fact your walmart is stacked with product is amazing in itself
He probably knows the day the vendor stocks since he does this all the time
Not anymore lol
Real asf , that why I go to Best Buy
Agreed my Walmart and Target barely have anything 😢

well i hope retro pack gets in euro too now !
is yugioh popular in europe? i’m genuinely curious because i don’t know. if they want extra then they should replace retro packs in europe.

Oh mate im really hoping! if you see anything pls reply to me asap LOL

Not all of them. Some don't have Yugioh anymore just pokemon stuff
Found one of these boxes on thursday and opened it too. So weird to see these in the wild.
Why do you sound like a pokemon trainer? 😂 a wild LoD box is in the open, throws credit card to capture.

Praying we now get Retro Pack for in the UK 🙏
GIVE US IN EUROPE THE RETRO PACK AS WELL WE DID NOTHING WRONG
It's a nice surprise. With the ability to know about every release months in advance, this just showing up is a nice treat for fans.

It would be cool if they off the retro pack to our pond buddies. I know a lot of them were complaining about not being able to access the those packs.
The Uk called , they say you can have all Euro exclusive cards if the US give their land back.
Christ, can you imagine Keir Starmer getting control of America? He'd be like a teenager who just discovered the strip club in GTA.
Don’t make me start a Boston tea party 2.0 man
@@yerxiong123 Screw that. I think just the American general public has more guns than our army. 😂
I was pretty stoked/shocked to see these at my local Walmart. Definitely got a couple too. :)
08:05 in France we also have Yu-Gi-Oh! packs in supermarkets !! And updated as well ! 😀
I walked in Walmart and saw a bunch of light of destruction and retro pack on the shelves. It's so nice to have these old sets available but I really wish I could get booster boxes for msrp instead of buying a bunch of 4 packs at a time.
I like the new LODT just for how clear the ghost rare is. The ultis look...interesting.
Love the opening and pulls, I wish my Walmart was stacked like yours! I think it's pretty cool to see it's not a region exclusive product and it's nice to see Jaden on the cover of a box!
I'm glad they brought it over to NA in mini boxes
I think this was an unannounced bonus. People just discovered these but Konami never announced these on their socials.
They did say that Europe would get the full booster boxes. SE for america seems like a big thing now
Im glad to see i wasnt the only one with terrible luck with these 😂😂
That intro was pretty funny, like Ron from Anchorman "I'm Ron Burgendy..?" Also, crazy pull by the end.
I love this. Reprints are always welcomed.
Might need to import some of this into Canada, Retro Pack was impossible to find. Walmart wasn't carrying it and Gamestop was always sold out.
I’m glad that it was released in the US cause this is a good set. Great video Ruxin!
Hell Yeah! Let's go! Good luck on the pulls!
This is good.. exclusive stuff like that grinds my gears
Was just looking at this box today. Thanks Ruxin as always for showing us the goods :P
Thanks for this video made me go out and buy 8 boxes myself !! I love this set😅
Hope to see them up in Canada
I think Konamani (Konami lol) maybe just felt bad for not releasing it in America too aha, who knows?
Im going to have to see if this set dropped in Canada too! 🔥
Maybe retro packs will come to EU?
That's crazy. I don't mind if they are here. Let's goooo!

I’m glad the light of destruction mini boxes came to the US. It’s been a long time since i opened this set when it first came out
Saw these at walmart yesterday and was definitely shook
Komoney is straight up trollin with these reprint sets
bringing back this set is fire 😂
It's cool they are also here I think having region exclusive is kind of weird when today you can just order from across the globe
I really like this mini box coming to the US. I love older sets, and want to open more of them.
I like the were getting light of destruction. It was a set i loved as a kid
Really excited to have these here too! :) Bit strange, but not complaining!
It's cool that it's not only in Europe.
Bought the last 3 light of destruction boxes at my Walmart. Pulled 1 secret rare dark general freed, 1 ultimate rare phantom dragon, 1 ultra rare lyla lightsworn sorceress, 1 subsitoad and 3 jinzo returner's from 12 packs.
Not a bad looking set. Glad we have access to it. Still can’t find Retro boxes at retail stores.
Check your local Barnes and Noble too. Theres supposedly at least Retro Pack, maybe Light of Destruction too.
Saw them a couple days back while looking for more retropack and got 5 lotd mini boxes. I really think both reprints are great. I have spend more than I planned for both😅
I mean in the UK the Superstore chain ASDA is owned by Walmart, so maybe that is why?
Magicians force reprints coming. I’m convinced.
I mean I'm stoked, I think it will be fun to pick up and try and get a ghost rare honest without needing to pay for international shipping.
Favorite part about this, my friend is getting to relive his favorite pulls from when he was playing meta 😊
LODT getting reprinted is so cool!
Ruxin shouting out Hawthorne CA 🥰
I like it. I saw some at my Walmart but didn’t realize they were EU only. Will be picking some up now
stores have entire booster boxes of lodt over here in australia
The booster boxes for RP are insanely expensive too… makes more sense cost wise to just buy a bunch of mini boxes
I really love this reprint set 🤩
I like this! I definitely want to go look for some now, but MAN I wish my target and walmart card sections looked like the ones you got like seriously 😂
Gotta go get some boxes for these!
I’m from London, UK love YuGioh but it’s soo hard to find sealed product at retail. Love the vids always!!!
It's a good thing Light of Destruction reprint have a US version too and it's box is actually better than the EU one with 3 packs, because it only have Honest on it, but this have Jaden on the package too, just like on 24 packs box.
Wish we got the US products here! Would’ve enjoyed opening the retro packs
Gotta love it and especially the special edition so you don't have to commit to a whole booster box
Im from belguim. The factory for all of europe and uk is in belguim. So these are eu print.
I was super excited to see this at Walmart the other day. Love to collect sealed items and was not super excited to buy a pack of this on TCG Player for a premium and wait for it to be shipped from Europe 😂
Just saw this box at my local Walmart today. 🎉🎉
If it's euro only and if we have it then I am not gonna complain about it. Light of destruction is one of the best sets in gx to get your hands on.
Love this set ❤
Cool product! I've been interested in Lightsworn for a while now. This situation feels like the Realm of Light structure reprint. It was only available in EU and then sorta randomly showed up here in the US? Idk...
Idec how it happened I'm just happy it's hit our shores!!
This looks interesting, I'll probably end up getting some. It's just such a weird situation that I don't know what to expect with it
I’m from the uk and I’m soo annoyed 😂 where’s my reprint retro pack now? It better come to us here also. Nobody please tell me it already did 16 years ago 🤣

Light of Destruction is such a cool set. Glad you managed to get some!
Love it! Let’s get that secret rare JD!
It's cool! I am always all for the original print, but this is cool also!
Watching these made me realize how lucky I was with my pulls. I thought the pull rates were juiced like retro pack. Pulled ghost honest, fossil dyna, super recharge and some other sweet ultras out of 4 boxes
I'm from the United States and I'm so excited to get this box to open up to see what I get
Shoutout to Walmart ?! I know in Hawthorne I’ve drove passed the distribution center / factory there it’s in an industrial area
If only we had a Walmart-like store where I live.
I cant wait to get these amaxing boxes i love this set :)
Hey the more packs the better, I won't complain!
Last box gives ya some value back, other boxes were rough
Need this for the sealed jaden collection
Oh yes I was hoping to get some of these bring back the memories
I saw these at my Walmart as well thought about buying
I’m glad it came to the us, but I hope they let the eu get the retro pack reprint bc I know they were frustrated about not getting that one there

Let's goooo!! I liked the set being reprinted but they should've used the retro pack reprint style for the cards
I mean competitively around these sets is when the game started taking off and becoming its on thing. LOD is one of the most important sets ever IMO
Nice packs and some nice pulls. We have Walmart in the UK but under the name of Asda and they sell limited yugioh products mainly structure decks, tins and single packs which vary from store to store.
LODT is such a great set that they had to make it available to everyone
Weird this came here but very happy to get a hold of them.
Opened 2 cases of LODT nearly completed a Master set. 4 cards off.
The amount of unitoad and substitoads I got I wanna make a frog deck hahaha
I saw some at my Walmart too!
I know the distributor for my local store is a company known by MJ holdings, maybe Konomi just wanted to pump these retro packs in to the wild for a future announcement.
Cool to see LODT again
