I’m from Clarksville too. I live a sober life and what keeps me going is working forward with my fiance, hitting the gym daily, opening a pack and knowing that I have a Ruxin video to look forward to. You helped me more than I can admit. I’m sure you’ll never see this but 3 years ago I was lost barely alive, homeless and what kept me going was watching your videos. I got help, went to rehab and 3 years later, I’m healthy, happy sober, and 2 years into nursing school while still looking forward to the daily videos. Thank you ruxin.
It's great that they reprint this kind of boxes and printing them different it's good. That way it's fair for collectors and for people that just want to open old packs. What it's not great is that Konami only released this in Europe 😢
I think it's cool that Konami is reprinting sets and making them distinct from original to give people a more affordable way of opening it while still letting collectors have a clear original
@@jkurtzz modern card stock, they look and feel like new sets rather than the old card stock. Old cards have a very distinct look, as Ruxin mentioned most people will be able to tell this is the 2024 reprint compared to LOB reprints not being as distinguishable. I think this should have had 25th stamp too to further distinguish when it was reprinted. Maybe even add some collectibility.
@@jkurtzzthe box itself has the new white yugioh logo vs the original having the greyish black colored sharper logo, the copyright is different in the bottom right, and the text box is larger and closer to the border than the original.
I think it's nice to get reprints like this every now and then, gives us a nice hit of nostalgia while also letting newer players experience what we did back in the day. Nice pulls too!
LODT was actually the last set before the rare and foil sets they started that in TDGS. I think this is cool they did this reprint I know a lot of ppl are upset but always collect 1st Edition guys for vintage!
Thank you for opening this european set ruxin! It is actually a really cool set, i actually really forgot most of these cards, and seeing them kick’s up my brain and is a really cool trip down memory lane, so far this set is amazing! Thank you for this amazing video!
Havent collected yu-gi-oh in 14 years, your videos recently got me back and and trying to learn to duel again! Thank you for what you do dude! I think this new set is cool, im stoked for any new sets lol
I approve of the reprints of older set for nostalgia purposes and giving players a chance to experience opening older boxes that they never had a chance to.
This set brings me nostalgic, so I've ordered one a few days ago. I remembered I've opened an error box where there is no super and ultra but was replaced with all ulti, and also pulled honest ghost rare and JD too in the same box. Store owner was in shock too lol.
as someone that dropped out of yugioh back at the start of gx and just now coming back to it i really like all the reprinting. May not be great for overall value but its nice to be able to catch up
As far as I know they will print Retro Pack (which will be released next week) in the original style. I'm excited to see how it looks, I love the old style.
I’m actually pretty stoked about this set. The cards look good and I’m glad that they made the foiling new school like you said so you can tell them apart from the old. Big W I think
I was very happy when it was announced that the set would be reprinted. It is one of my absolute favorite sets. I don't think it's a bad thing that the style is new, but rather a good thing that the cards differ from the older ones. I'm looking forward to the next videos about the set and to my own upcoming openings of the set.
I’m very happy these have a slightly different texture and design than the originals. Having exact copies devalues the originals and causes nothing but confusion.
Its nice for those old sets to be reprinted as long as they dont mess with the value of the original printings, i like that those printings differ from the old ones
I love that they reprinted the set. Know that it will cause the value of the originals to go down, but just for the sake of playing older formats this is awesome. Also, love the choice of set!
I think it's cool. I'm sure they are doing it because Europe needed it's own product like the US is getting. I found them for 80 a box, but shipping is the kicker.
I think they put more thought and effort into to making this as nostalgic as possible but it’s clear and simple that they will never ever be able to replace the originals , whether it be $ issue or the fact that things are just mass produced using different materials and machinery now days.
Fair but Konami isn’t doing this to compete with used and sealed cards. They are going to tap into that market that otherwise would have gone to TCG or EBay to snag these cards. The only time the $ will matter is for resellers because to your point they won’t match the originals, but they’ll be affordable and profit going to Konami instead
I was really surprised when they announced it but super excited about it. Gives the chance that they'll reprint other older sets like maybe phantom darkness! Sweet solar recharge!
I like the fact that the cards are different from the original print, but I feel like they could have done this in a different way and they could have make it a little bit more appealing to buy.
Love this set and very happy it was reprinted, hope they do a phantom darkness reprint next! Box ratios are: 5 supers per box 2 ultras per box 1 secret per 1.2 boxes 1 ultimate per 1.2 boxes 1 ghost per 12 boxes Good luck for the stream ruxin 👍🏼
I like the look of the ultis and ghost from this set. The other stuff, not as much. Modern print doesn't look as great on the lower rarities. The reprint Ryko from here and the one from RA02 are almost indistinguishable.
Agree the ultra and super rares in the new printing look so cheap its really hard for me to see value in a card that looks exactly the same as the one from another set with the new print style, im curious to see if they can still manage to print like the old style with the retro pack reprint.
Love Lightsworns, remember going to my first locals and getting absolutely stomped by Gadget/Frog control (I think that is what it was?) and Toadally Awesome. Humbled my expensive Lightsworn deck, good memories!
They shouldn't have made this Euro only for sure. But the good thing is the reprint itself for a ghost rare set. Lodt and Ptdn are notoriously difficult to find and very expensive. Reprinting these sets instead of the 10th re-release of Lob and Srl is a move in the right direction
The new reprinted cards actually don't look too bad. I remembered opening quite a few of this set back in the days. Hopefully, I will be able to pull a Ghost Rare this time.
Throwback to when Konami announced they'd print the cards closer to the original versions and we thought they would use the old layout. In the end they just removed the textured borders (outer border and effect box border) for ultimate rares 😂 They didn't even touch other holo cards that didn't have foil stars and attributes.
From a collector perspective its kinda rough to see your cards getting reprinted into oblivion but from a nostalgic perspective it's so fun to open old packs without having to sell your liver😅
FYI - Yes TCG has some separate categories per vintage set that has a reprint. Ill use LOB as an example. On TCG they have Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon, LOB World wide english, and LOB 25th anniversary. And to tell 25th from world wide it will be indicated on the bottom right side of the card.... 25th will say "2020" and World wide will say "1996". World wide and 25th both are numbered as "LOB-EN00X". Whereas the original will just say LOB-00X (NO EN before the number)..... So make sure to pay attention to the bottom right. The new "The Light of Destruction" reprint also has a new set listing for the reprint on TCG. AND will follow the 25th anniversary printing with the "2020" in the bottom right of the corner instead of the original "1996". Hope this helps! Wish I could show pictures lol
Something I noticed that's interesting is that this Ryko print doesn't have the most up-to-date card text like the one from Rarity 2. But its not the old effect that targets either? Any Edison players here know if Ryko goes by the old rulings in that format? Curious to know if maybe this print is geared towards Edison.
Well the boxes look great, and I feel it's a good thing that they decided to reprint the set, thought it's to bad it's Europe only. I'd rather have them be in the old style, but I can understand that they decided against that, same as the 25th anniversary OG reprints. This was an amazing box though! I hope I can get a couple boxes at some point, that'd be great. And it would be nice to see some other classic set from GX and 5Ds reprinted as well.
I honestly like the reprint, imo it’s a breath of fresh air compared to the reprints of the original packs/boxes (lob, mrd, etc). That being said I’m biased because this set is nostalgic for me. Reeeeallly hoping they do phantom darkness at some point!

I think the reprint set is fine it gives people the chance to feel old nostalgia and hopefully get a ghost honest
It’s also cuz the set wasn’t printed in Euro, like how retro pack 2 (?) wasn’t printed in the USA
@@nauticoom that's not true. It was printed in Europe. It just never got a reprint
Loved this set growing up. Glad they have a reprint of it

Reprints are definitely welcome so newer fans like me get to open old stuff as well but it's too bad they made it an eu only product.
I think it's cool that Konami is reprinting sets and making them distinct from original to give people a more affordable way of opening it while still letting collectors have a clear original
How exactly is this differentiated from the original? The foil stars was a change from years ago…even the set code is the same.

@@Masked-Hero-Acid answer: they did nothing. I know the differences between a old and new card lol Konami did nothing to distinguish this reprint
@@jkurtzz bottom right copyright text is different

Love this nostalgia stuff. Hoping this means Phantom Darkness is happening too. More GX reprints in general would be great.
If I remember right they also kept the original effect text. Not sure how I feel about it but it's a minor thing anyway.
I think it's nice to get reprints like this every now and then, gives us a nice hit of nostalgia while also letting newer players experience what we did back in the day. Nice pulls too!

its cool seeing the old sets getting attention. Makes a lot of things more accessible
I approve of the reprints of older set for nostalgia purposes and giving players a chance to experience opening older boxes that they never had a chance to.
I love this reprint makes old school iconic sets more accessible and it's an awesome feeling to open the same set as many years ago 😁
Great to see more reprints to bring these nostalgic cards and moments back
This set brings me nostalgic, so I've ordered one a few days ago. I remembered I've opened an error box where there is no super and ultra but was replaced with all ulti, and also pulled honest ghost rare and JD too in the same box. Store owner was in shock too lol.
This was a great set to open as a kid! Love opening it up as an adult too haha nice pull, Ruxin!
This set definitely needed a reprint, i’m glad they came out with it even though the prices will drop!
Love this set. Also love that I sold my 1st Edition Substitoads (3 of them) right before the reprints.
as someone that dropped out of yugioh back at the start of gx and just now coming back to it i really like all the reprinting. May not be great for overall value but its nice to be able to catch up
As far as I know they will print Retro Pack (which will be released next week) in the original style. I'm excited to see how it looks, I love the old style.
I hope Konami doesn't change copyright text on the bottom right area. I hate 2020 studio dice, pls Konami stick with 1996 Kazuki Takahashi
@@nebra969 that might actually be the one detail that will make them distinguishable from the original print :(
Ruxin LITERALLY never disappoints. What a legend.
I love the reprints. Nothing beats nostalgia and they are always cool for the collection.
I never got to open the original version of Light of Destruction, so this is petty exciting!
Love the opening and pulls! I’m glad to see some of the cards being reprinted so players can use them!
The nostalgia of this set really makes me excited for this reprint!

Whoa this box is awesome! The "big pull" looks good!
Some great pulls! The Ryko looks great 👌
I love that they reprinted the set. Know that it will cause the value of the originals to go down, but just for the sake of playing older formats this is awesome. Also, love the choice of set!
This was my favorite set growing up. Lightsworn and Arcana Force have been a couple of my favorite decks since forever.
I think it's cool. I'm sure they are doing it because Europe needed it's own product like the US is getting. I found them for 80 a box, but shipping is the kicker.
Definitely grabbing a few boxes, never got to open these before! Looks like you got some good boxes too!

Horn of Heaven is "When a monster(s) would be Summoned" and that also required you to tribute a monster
I was really surprised when they announced it but super excited about it. Gives the chance that they'll reprint other older sets like maybe phantom darkness! Sweet solar recharge!
Love this set. Love looking at the ghost rare honest! Some nice ultimates!

any idea how much a case is in cad
Lightsworns are my favorite so I'm pumped for this! Want to see Judgment Dragon!

Exactly the type of product I want. Ultimate rares and ghosts are back! Gonna be my first box buy since rarity collection 1!
Love Lightsworns, remember going to my first locals and getting absolutely stomped by Gadget/Frog control (I think that is what it was?) and Toadally Awesome. Humbled my expensive Lightsworn deck, good memories!
Pretty cool. I have always wanted to open this set, so I am excited to get some of the reprint boxes.
Looking forward to seeing more of these random reprint sets in the future
my favorite set ever, very happy they reprinted it.

This set looks great and that Solar Recharge looks cool
Fun fact most of Sassy’s products are CA/UK print so you get that good quality more often than not
Love the reprints. As someone getting back into YuGiOh makes chasing nostalgia a little cheaper
I love seeing old school (reprint) openings!
These look way better than the last reprintsets
Amazing to see this reprinted for those who missed it
Deck lock down, the deck lock down 🎶
I always love that lol
I don't know how many times I need to say this, I freaking love and appreciate all the GX love that konami has been doing! GX is the best!
I'm still on the fence whether or not I want to open this set or just get a few singles.
I really like these. They look a little bit different, but at least i can relive my childhood a little for a reasonable price.
I love this set, I really wish it was a US release 😢 but great opening! gonna join the whatnot stream
Man this was one of my favourites back in the day, might have to open some for those ultimate rare arcana cards
Throwback to when Konami announced they'd print the cards closer to the original versions and we thought they would use the old layout. In the end they just removed the textured borders (outer border and effect box border) for ultimate rares 😂

Love this set, i have a few Honests from the original set. Will be checking this out when it comes to my local cards shop - luckily im EU based.
Dang that Fossil Dyna secret has no business looking that clean
one of the coolest ultis and secrets. Looking forward to the livestream tonight
These reprints are really good for nostalgia, I'm prolly gonna open some packs myself
Glad they did it but they should reprint morphing jar, been waiting on it
From a collector perspective its kinda rough to see your cards getting reprinted into oblivion but from a nostalgic perspective it's so fun to open old packs without having to sell your liver😅
I wasn't a fan of the idea until I saw that ulti Solar Recharge, that is beautiful.
Don’t love this reprint myself but atleast we get the doggo
Keep crushing Rux 🙌
Really like how the secrets look in EURO print on camera!

Konami should reprint these old sets more often, especially the ones that are as old as LoD.
wish we got these in the us… that recharge looks gorgeous
Love this set bro. I remember I had 3 1st ed ghost rare honest. They were beautiful
That ultimate rare looked really good…excited for these packs
I love how this got reprinted, the ultis looks really really good
What a box giveaway! And wow didn’t know this was just in Europe going to buy some now 😂
We need to do Original vs. Reprint on LoD.
Loved the frog cards and the lightsworns. I can't believe fossil dyna is still worth that much!
I love that they reprinted the ultimate rares to resemble the old ones. Yes there's some difference to them, but I still like em.
so glad to see this set again!!
This set has always been one of my favorite. I can't wait to get a few
I wish they did old card layout for these
I like reprints, it gives new players a chance to get some classic cards. Wish they release it in NA too

Man this was a great box! I'll pop in to watch the stream 👍
I'm hype for this set only because I've never opened it hope the holos in person look decent at least
Couldn’t tell if the ultimate rare pulled is the revamped version where the edges are treated as well or if it’s the original treatment
Super nostalgic set with a lot of iconic cards
They have them in Canada now at retail
Ordered 2 boxes!!! Hoping for some sweet ultimates!!
I like them reprinting sets for people who weren't able to experience them before
