      Tobias, deck boxene han har der der skifter farve, er ikke helt udkommet i dk endnu. men de kommer nok på mcm inden lang tid ellers er der officielle Ultimate guard forhandlere i danmark så som dragons lair hvor du kan bestille dem :D

      love your reviews, but i want to ask, would it be possible in the future to see if the deckboxes can hold decks that are sleeved with sleeve covers 69*94mm?(no perfect fit) in another cardgame i play i use alot of character print sleeves and need to use sleeve covers to protect them or else they will become unplayable due to damage from shuffling, i can also give an example.
      ultimate guard sidewinder unfortunately fails when it comes to sleeve covers, you can fit the deck into the box but it's tight too tight so putting the cards in the box does not go so smoothly as you would want, the deckbox would have needed 1-2 more mm to fix that issue.

    Here's an interesting science fact for you Professor, magnets have a stronger hold along the axis of contact of the poles. Those smaller boxes are lined up in a way that causes the magnets to slide whereas the larger box has then bear the weight through the poles.

    Something in my gut tells me that the Professor picked up the color changing Sidewinder at some sort of trade fair where Ultimate Guard was exhibiting new products. Or maybe Card Kingdom got sent a prototype which they've forwarded to our beloved Tolarian Community College. In any case, I don't think they're even mass produced yet.

    Saturion Domain needs to realize that most magnets have very little grip when a "shearing" force is applied to them. This is why the magnets do basically nothing on the small deck boxes. They either should have oriented them similarly to those on the large boxes, or gone with a different type of latch.

I just saw your video of the tour of your office and explanation of how much work you put into this channel. Dude you're fricken AWESOME! I've regretted some of my MTG purchases because I didn't know how pointless they were. I wish I found this channel earlier. All of your subscribers and all of the people who watched and foolishly didn't subscribe have greatly benefited from your videos.

    I bought a ChromiaSkin (Red to Yellow) during a very warm few weeks in summer, and because of that, it took on a *permanent* orange coloration, with the color change effect barely visible anymore. It's still a nice deckbox (though I use Trainer Shield Tins for my Pokémon decks), but for aesthetic purposes (which is probably the main reason you'd buy one), here's my personal warning not too store it in a warm environment for too long.

    the reason the magnet don't hold the deck box on the small one is because as pressure is applied down the magnet will slide down till it eventually has barely any contact an slip completely, honestly this makes the magnets next to worthless as the force to keep stuff in place is only when trying to pull away and not really against sliding, the magnets will slide till barely any contact point and then it will just drop.

    I think Ultimate guard is on to something there. Personalizable deckbox. But I think the activation of the colour change should be able to be made permanent.
