YGO TCG News

The MACHINA MAYHEM Deck includes a computerized army of high-tech robots and vehicles that you can use to run over your opponents. All of the monsters in MACHINA MAYHEM are Machine-Type monsters. Several of them are also Union Monsters.

Union Monsters were first introduced back in 2003 with the Magician’s Force booster set. These monsters have the ability to attach themselves to other monsters as Equip Cards, giving the monster they attach to additional effects. Also, if a monster that has a Union Monster attached to it would be destroyed, the Union Monster takes the hit, and gets destroyed instead. Attaching Union Monsters to your strongest cards can help stop them from being destroyed. Just imagine your Machine-Type Union Monsters combining and transforming each other into bigger and better machines!

Absolute Powerforce

The power to win more Duels than ever can now be yours with Absolute Powerforce booster packs.

Look for your own copy of Jack Atlas’ “Majestic Red Dragon” – the latest and greatest upgrade for The Five Dragons. You can also Summon Yusei’s “Drill Synchron” to let all your Warriors inflict piercing Battle Damage and let you draw a card every turn!

These incredible new cards used by The Signers, and many more, are matched (possibly out-matched!) in Absolute Powerforce by the latest monsters of The Dark Signers. Leading the charge are Rex Goodwin’s Dragons of the Sun and Moon – Inti and Quilla – used in his climactic Duel against Yusei, Jack, and Crow. You can also find Goodwin’s whole supporting cast of ancient Inca cards, including “Oracle of the Sun,” “Temple of the Sun,” and “Apocatequil.”

Absolute Powerforce also includes 2 of the dastardly Dark Synchro Monsters: “Underground Arachnid” and “Zeman the Ape King.” On TV, Dark Synchro Monsters have special rules requiring negative monster Levels, but these special versions have been converted into the standard Synchro Monster rules, to make them easier for you to Summon!

From the current battles between The Signers and The Dark Signers, Absolute Powerforce also reaches back in time to bring you two of Yugi’s most beloved monsters from the original Yu-Gi-Oh! Battle City storyline: “Berfomet” and “Chimera the Flying Mythical Beast.” Never before released, you can at last add these monsters to your collection of Yugi’s favorite cards.

Are you tired of having your monsters, Spells, and Traps destroyed by your opponent, leaving you open to a direct attack? No longer! With Absolute Powerforce, you don’t have to rely just on the cards on your field for defense. “Ogre of the Scarlet Sorrow” and “Battle Fader” can be Special Summoned directly from your hand when your opponent attacks you directly. “Battle Fader” will even end the Battle Phase the moment it’s Summoned, giving you complete protection from attack.

In addition to all of that, Absolute Powerforce contains new Koa’ki Meiru, X-Sabers, Ritual Monster cards, Reptiliannes, Spellcasters, Machines, and more. And in a special treat for long-time Duelists, an old favorite has returned: It’s time to dust off your “Necrovalley” and add 4 brand new cards to your Gravekeeper’s Deck!

This booster set absolutely has more power than any set should ever have. Don’t miss out!

Absolute Powerforce contains 100 cards:

48 Common Cards (8:1)
20 Rare Cards (1:1)
14 Super Rare Cards (1:5)
10 Ultra Rare Cards (1:12)
