UPR Deck Box

Happy Thursday MTG peeps,

Now that we have our Magic 2014 pre-orders from MTG Mint Card, we will shortly get to some new standard and modern constructed ideas we have but not until we have a few Friday Night Magic events to test these.  For today's post, we wanted to yatter about a new deck storage box we're sure that gamers will be interested in.

We first told you about the new Ultra PRO 3-Compartment Pro-Tower Black Deck Box on our sister site MTG Realm on Tumblr a few weeks ago and thought it so very cool, we went ahead and  grabbed one of these.

The box features :
• 25 Oversized Planechase or Commander cards
• Bottom Tray for 80 sleeved cards or Dice
• Top Tray 100+ sleeved cards
• Mag-Snap closure

Anywhoos - here's a short video tour of this - 


~
The Pro-Tower deck box is designed with swinging front door which has room to accommodate up to 25 over-sized sleeved cards like your General's card for Commander / EDH or Planechase cards if you play that format. Inside, the bottom tray is designed hold all your dice, tokens, or 80 sleeved cards laying flat.  

 

You can use the attached ribbon to easily lift the cards out - or like us,  simply secure a petit sachet of potpourri.  The top compartment can hold 100+ sleeved cards.  Top flap closes the entire thing with a magnetic button.  The material appears to be a plasticized fiber and durable.  We'll be using this when we go gaming and will report back as to how this new Ultra PRO box works for us, but for now, we're going to give it two thumbs up.

Gatecrash UltraPro LineUp

~
Happy Thursday MTG peeps,

We know we already fed you a post earlier today (MTG Realm Tumblr Thursday), but we did not want to wait until tomorrow to share this particular Magic: the Gathering news with you - another Gatecrash spoiler.  This time, the Ultra•Pro product lineup to contain and protect your new Gatecrash cards due out in February, 2013.

Thanks to a toy distributor in Australia who may have jumped the gun just a titch early, we have images of all of the ULTRA PRO - Magic: The Gathering Gatecrash products.  No surprises really.  As we expected, the art featured will correspond similarly to what was chosen for Return to Ravnica.  We have the dual land arts featured on the Play mats for the remaining five guilds (Orzhov, Dimir, Gruul, Boros, and Simic) along with the respective Guild Mages featured on the deck boxes and sleeves.  The binder appears to feature Gideon & Aurelia.  If you want to check out larger arts here, look to our previous posts 'Ravnica Art Fight' or 'Ravnica Art Dump'.  Anywhoos - Let's have a looky-loo . . .

Sleeve Protectors - one for each GTC Guild : 80 ct 

Side Load Deck Box - one for each GTC Guild : holds 80 sleeved cards

Hello again MTG peeps,

In this, our second post to the MTR Realm bloggy, we wanted to share the Ultra•Pro lineup for Magic 2013.  We first started yattering about this early last week on Tumblr but now have all the images revealed.  If you've missed our first post earlier today, you may want to catch up on the new M13 spoilers and previews.


Anywhoos - let's have a looks at what Ultra•Pro has for us to sleeve up / deck up or binder up our new slick core set cards with . . .

Nice - we were hoping for some of the amazing card art (like Sands of Delirium) but this may do.  We almost want to go complere matching on the slick dark products - UPR 86000 - MTG 2013 Vertical Deck Protector / UPR 86001 - MTG 2013 Top Load Deck Box / UPR 86005 - MTG 2013 Playmat 2 / UPR 86008 - MTG 2013 2” Album but don't know whether the gang down at the local games store (OMG! Games) will tease us for being OCD or fear us as it just looks sooo pro.

EDIT:

Apparently we failed to get to you the image of that other playmat - Here's the Magic 2013 playmat for  Mindclaw Shaman ->

Avacyn Restored UPR Art

Happy Wednesday MTG peeps,

In a somewhat phrophetic post yesterday here on MTG Realm, we had gone over various news including upcomming Avacyn Restored Ultra•Pro products. Well today over on Magic Arcana, WoTC Monty delivered the first realy Avacyn Restored spoiler - arts on the Ultra•Pro products. Of particular note is the availability of SIX playmats featuring four different angels (two are images of Avacyn herself) as well as a demon, in all liklihood Griselbrand - freshly released from the Helvault along with the angel Avacyn and a host of other nasties.

'nuff yattering, let's have a look . . .




















UPR 82930 - Vertical-load Deck
UPR 82931 - Top-load Deck
UPR 82932 - Horizontal-load Deck
UPR 82933 - MSide-load Deck
UPR 82934 - P laymat 1
UPR 82935 - Playmat 2
UPR 82936 - Playmat 3
UPR 82937 - 9-pocket Portfolio
UPR 82938 - Playmat 4
UPR 82939 - Playmat 5
UPR 82940 - Playmat 6

We're thinking that if you are a fan of angels, you are going ga-ga just right now. Some rumour-mongers are proposing the possibility of a cylce of multi-coloured Angels and Demons, which should get the Commander / EDH crowd juiced up for this set.

Finally,
You should know that the folks over that MTG Mint Card has Dark Ascension Ultra○Pro products available for like these card sleeves and deck boxes.

Avacyn Restored UltraPro

Happy Tuesday MTG peeps,

Only two newsworthy pieces Magic the Gathering related interest today - one is from Ultr•Pro, and the other from the Magic Arcana announcement regarding MTGO Cube format. Let's get to it -

If you've been reading MTG Realm for any time, you will realise that we relish our MTG spoilers and rumours. Traditionally, one of the first unofficial spoilers to hit the interwebs are art spoilers via gaming supplies giant, Ultra•Pro. Unfortunately no Avacyn Restored spoilers but we can report that some distributors working with Ultra•Pro indicate that the art in Avacyn Restored is so good that three more Playmats were ordered bringing the total number of AVR Playmats to a whopping SIX. Here are the UPR numbers for future reference for hobby / game store owners -


UPR 82930 - Vertical-load Deck
UPR 82931 - Top-load Deck
UPR 82932 - Horizontal-load Deck
UPR 82933 - MSide-load Deck
UPR 82934 - P laymat 1
UPR 82935 - Playmat 2
UPR 82936 - Playmat 3
UPR 82937 - 9-pocket Portfolio
UPR 82938 - Playmat 4
UPR 82939 - Playmat 5
UPR 82940 - Playmat 6

Next up :

Cube format is coming to Magic Online. If you don't know, Cube Draft combines elements of both Constructed and Limited play. To prepare for this format, a player or the group of players prepares a "cube". Specifically, a cube is selected set of at least 360 or moredifferent Magic cards. Once the cube has been completed, you can use it for almost any draft format, the most popular of which is to compile 15 random cards to make a booster packs from which a regular booster draft game can proceed.

Magic the Gathering Online will roll this out to coincide with PAX East (Friday April 6 to 8, 2012). Check out the details such as prizes and the pool HERE in the official announcement.

Lastly,

Preorder assorted Avacyn card lots at MTG Mint Card - This is the last chance for the early bird discount for the Avacyn Restored uncommon & common card sets.

For as low as $34.99, you can save a bundle.
