3 Hidden Arsenal 5 - Steelswarm Invasion packets

Gungnir, Dragon of the Ice Barrier
Uzku - 14. Nov, 09:17

Wonder whatthe variants are gonna be. I'd quite like glow-up bulb or scrap dragon reprints, although they might do The Shining which would be nice to hero players. Hope they holo-ize a common like they did with Spore, and I hope that common is either Swap Frog or Ronintoadin :)

ShiroRyu - 14. Nov, 09:25

I'm thinking it'll be 2 DT/HA-related cards... I think 1 of them will probably be Vylon Delta, not sure about the other, since it's too soon for a Roach reprint. Maybe some older DT/HA card like Brionac.
2003malibuss - 14. Nov, 09:18

first post lol

watz with this HA05 on December and HA05 special edition on January is this some kind of joke ???????????????????????????????

Genma no Ou - 14. Nov, 16:52

Uh, no

1 month later is the standard for a Special Edition bro. January is one month after December. What part of that doesn't make sense to you?
KarakuriSoldierMdl216 - 14. Nov, 10:07

$5

I bet this is gonna be a Europe only one

Dragon King - 14. Nov, 17:05

Why would it be only in Europe?....the last one in the US.
Anyway....what dose it pockets mean? Are they talking about card sleeves? Because last time konami try that it was in the tins. But not too long after they were banned. People could see through the sleeve. So they were banned at tournament and championship. People were accused of marking their cards by putting things under the sleeves so they could see what cards they were drawing. If they do it again I'm hoping this time their make the cards non-transparent.

But I still want a re-print promo more!
ShiroRyu - 14. Nov, 17:21

@Dragon King
It says packets. As in booster packs. You get 3 "Hidden Arsenal 5 - Steelswarm Invasion" booster packs. No sleeves/pockets/etc. Booster packs. 3 of them. Hidden Arsenal 5. Clear?

Next we'll have people asking what the 1 of 2 variant cords are, and whether or not they're for stringing together cards or deck boxes.
KarakuriSoldierMdl216 - 14. Nov, 19:31

@Dragon King:

let me remind you that the one released in the US had HA 1-3, the one in Europe had 3 packs of HA 4, so i'd say they got the better end of the stick with a better chance to pull re-print trish, unlike the one we got where it was still hard to pull a brionac or naturia beast out of it
Infernity Zero - 14. Nov, 20:41

HOPING FOR:

Brionac
Other DT staple card

WHAT WE'RE GONNA GET:
Crap from HA01-4
MORE Crap from HA01-4

lightsworn91 - 14. Nov, 20:46

All I am hoping is for is that the promo cards will be better than the promos in the first hidden arsenal special edition.

Ryus - 14. Nov, 21:21

Let's hope for Dragunity Knight - Vajrayana or Gae Dearg and some other random HA support

darkarmeddragon666 - 15. Nov, 14:49

re: Ryus

how about instead, we hope for raven and vajrayana, i mean who the fuck plays gay dearg? im actually expecting good promos in this one since unlike HA1-4 (and even there we got emmersblade), HA5 is shit, and who the fuck is gonna buy an SE shitty promos AND shitty packs? Think of STOR SE, NO ONE bought tht after sams died.
ywontuc - 15. Nov, 20:05

Honestly it will have to do with HA/DT archtypes that you could only get in packs so I'm thinking the way konami america is trying to demolish the secondary market (outside of tour guide and rabbit (2012 tins you know it)) i'm thinking it will be roach just to laugh at people who paid over $50 but i'm not getting my hopes up only time will tell. (troll us with naturia eggplant and worm king)

TKing6488 - 15. Nov, 21:37

Tour Guide?

Please for the love of god reprint it. I'm tired of this being a money game

Dragon King - 15. Nov, 22:53

I got tour guide by trading Leviathan Dragon... So I didn't have to pay a penny for my.
I would like to get my hands on Raven....Just one would do for me.
You would also like it if Steelswarm Roach was a promo as well.... But I'm sure everyone is right...it's still too soon. 

Infernity Zero - 17. Nov, 20:40

WHO THE F*** WOULD TRADE A TOUR GUIDE FOR LEVIATHAN DRAGON!!!

Just asking
Fob4eva - 18. Nov, 09:48

Cool Story Bro.

Nice, i got rescue rabbit for 15 dollars when it came out.
Battleonjn567 - 16. Nov, 22:33

Honestly, Konami is very smart on how they make their money with Yugioh. They reprint cards that are out of print and expensive. The reprints don't really have to be pertaining to this Hidden Arsenal such as Roach. They did Emmersblade because they knew the card was out of print and a lot of people wanted it. X-Sabers were in only the first Hidden Arsenal. They could possibly reprint Fabled Raven since it is part of one of the archetypes in the Hidden Arsenal series. Chances should be pretty decent for a Fabled Reprint since it is in need right now with the new Dark Worlds and DREV is out of print.
Personally, I hope the reprint Brionac, Naturia Beast, or Barkion. They probably won't though since HASE is still in stores.

ShiroRyu - 17. Nov, 13:00

I'm not so sure. While that was true with the tins, it seems to be rather hit and miss. Look at the Samurai Assault SE. Even if Six Sams were still the top deck, there were better cards to reprint as super than Elder (even Kageki or Kagemusha).

I really expect Vylon Delta to be one of the promos, regardless.
Dragon King - 18. Nov, 04:35

I guess the craziest SOB IN THE WORLD!!!....

It's 100% true. This guy wanted it and traded he's tour guild for my dragon. Maybe he just did not really think it out to well...man do know how that feels..lol
Anyway,Fabled Raven would be something great! He has been out for sometime now.....so he could be coming out as a promo at any time.
Fob4eva - 18. Nov, 09:46

Dragon King - 18. Nov, 15:48

I've seen this before.....Complete mental breakdown!!
KarakuriSoldierMdl216 - 18. Nov, 20:36

Reprints

You guys do remember TCG Exclusives don't get reprinted till Japan gets them right?
Fob4eva - 18. Nov, 21:02

Ofcourse. Won't be a while. My real preidiction is glow up bulb and lonefire blossom
ShiroRyu - 19. Nov, 00:57

It definitely won't be Tour Guide. Firstly, it's way too recent to have a reprint, don't expect one 'til at least next summer. Secondly, remember the last HA-SE? Emmersblade and Pineapple. Basically, we're going to have reprints of HA-related cards.

So Vylon Delta will most definitely be one.

The other one, if it's a reprint of a Secret Rare from a core set, could be any of: AOJ Cyclone Creator, Genex Neutron, Genex Ally Duradark, Genex Ally Axel, Fabled Raven, The Fabled Rubyruda, or Dragunity Knight Gae Dearg.
Or we could get a card from one of the first 4 HAs. But I reckon that's less likely.
Alternatively, they could bump Vylon Matter up to Super, if they want to keep with HA05-onwards themes only. But then we'd have 2 Vylon promos, so that's not very likely at all.
Belgian Blue - 19. Nov, 00:58

No one should make any illusions about Tour guide. Tins have never sold this well, so its almost a given TGU will be in both phase 1 tins come september '12 and Rabbit in the phase 2 tins, November '12, like POD and Warning were this year. That also means we will likely be going into a very similar format in march, and into championships season. So anybody not spending money won't even have to bother for nats this year.

Raven and Catastor/Brio seem to be the likely picks.

ShiroRyu - 25. Nov, 12:21

Quoted from Kevin Tewart:

Please note that Hidden Arsenal 5 Special Edition is only for Europe, Latin America (and in Spanish only there), and Australia/New Zealand.

It will not be available in the U.S. or Canada.


This leads me to believe that we'll likely get HA01 reprints (since we didn't get new HA01 packs in our previous special edition, and HA02-03 are still on shelves), probably Catastor + Mist Wurm (they'll probably save Brionac for TU07 or something).
Don't quote me on that though, just speculating.

Fob4eva - 28. Nov, 23:41

Time to Ebay the special eds =\
fan de yugioh - 3. Dec, 09:58

Makes it seem even more likely its The Shining + Exclusive.
brain_master - 29. Nov, 18:00

fabled raven please!!!!!

This card is ridiculous right now in the upwards of $45 that's crazy

fan de yugioh - 3. Dec, 09:59

Now it's $35...
blackwing dragon - 20. Jan, 07:08

raven wasnt that much until the new dark world structure deck came out
raven skyrocketed in price sense then and is still going up
at the moment raven is about 45 bucks on coretcg.com
im betting it will drop alittle cuz dark worlds arnt doing aswell as everyone had hoped
thats not saying they arent incredible
but not as good as we expected i guess
i havent seen a dark world build in regionals around my area atall lately
ofcourse i could be just missing it but never the less
Galvin09 - 15. Dec, 15:16

it would be:
1. Fabled Raven
2. Brionac
3. Catastor
4. Naturia Beast
5. Naturia Barkion

KingEmonerd - 6. Jan, 12:34

Hopes up...

Really, I was very disappointed when they made Raven a ScR, so I'm hoping for it in here. Makes sense, too.

Otherwise, I'd guess it to be a ScR from the normal boosters, but one that was TCG Excl..

Options include Karood, Skull Meister, Scrap Mind Reader (not likely though), Psi-Blocker (I'd like that :)), Chaos Hunter, Maxx "C", such cards.

Dragon King - 12. Jan, 21:19

I'm starting to think maybe only Europe is going to get this?.....
I know the month is still early,but I have not seen it in any of the stores I go to buy YGO cards...

brain_master - 15. Jan, 17:36

Really that would suck so bad
Especially if its something like glow-up bulb or maxx c
Fob4eva - 18. Jan, 12:25

january 18, 2012

Like when is this coming out? It's almost february and it says release date: january 2012.

bincenzo - 19. Jan, 07:33

26th

We're expected to see this in Australian stores by Jan 26th but some retailers should be getting it a few days earlier.
bincenzo - 19. Jan, 05:37

Hmmm...

Hey Shriek, according to yugioh.wikia the two promo cards are Tour Guide from the Underworld and Crystal Seer, is this confirmed or still speculation? We're still waiting in Australia to get any packets of this for our store.

blackwing dragon - 19. Jan, 06:06

tourguide from the underworld and crystal seer

according to the yugioh wikia site
tour guide and crystal seer might be confirmed
and its only set for europe and australia and spanish latin america
if that is true then im pissed y would they get tourguide reprints but america doesnt
they have tourguide as do we the only place that doesnt is japan atleast not yet

its not completely confirmed yet so i dont know if those two will actually be reprinted in this set or not

what do u guys think?

Fob4eva - 19. Jan, 06:25

Anyone can write stuff on wikia, how can u actually believe that.
Fob4eva - 19. Jan, 06:42

Gawddddddddddd, What is it going to be, 1 week away and no information about the new special editions. Yugioh Wikia is jokes, some kids put Tour Guide as a special edition card.

blackwing dragon - 19. Jan, 22:33

all i can say is that im going to be beyond pissed if tourguide is the special edition card
and y is europe the one place getting this
y arent they releasing this to the entire world not just europe
that is stupid as hell if u ask me
blackwing dragon - 20. Jan, 07:15

granted yugioh wikia can be edited by anyone
but they have been really good at keeping their info correct and up to day so it is very possible that tourguide could as well be the promo
if that is the case i will be pissed cuz i dont have any and would love to get some and if we dont get that set that is really stupid
but on the other hand there are areas of the world that have not gotten this card yet that do deserve to get it
we have the card but Australia doesnt

so i say let that be the promo
if its true then we will get it at some point its only a matter of time
i would buy alot of boxes spicifically for this card if it was the promo american or not

as of yet there is no confirmation or anything on weather tourguide will or will not be the promo

honestly here is hoping but either way
Kennethih - 20. Jan, 02:13

My Thoughts on the Variants

Flamvell Firedog
&
Fabled Rubyruda (I want to say Raven but it is unlikely)

blackwing dragon - 20. Jan, 07:03

honestly im hoping for like black rose and/or armory arm for atleast one of the reprints

both of those cards need reprints
how bout a formula synchron
europe already got it reprinted and we havent yet
if we get this set to i would really like to see that reprinted for us


i doubt it will happen but eeh here is hoping
blackwing dragon - 20. Jan, 07:37

absolutely no info on this set

ok so ive been trying to dig out some info on this set
and even the yugioh site directly from kanomi doesnt have any info on this pack or what will be released in it

what is up with that?
even the uk site doesnt have anything
and this pack is supposed to come out over there
http://www.yugioh-card.com/uk/products/
if u dont believe me have a look
there is nothing on this set out
less than 5 days before it comes out and there is still no information
is it just me or is anyone else beginning to think this pack is bogus and not actually coming out?
anyone can say hi im kevin from kanomi and i say this set will come out only in europe but my company will not release any information on it at all

blackwing dragon - 20. Jan, 08:17

not saying that is not true that this pack will come out over there
but y is there no info on this pack and there is less than 5 days before release
blackwing dragon - 20. Jan, 08:19

i mean the order of chaos special edition comes out in 2 months and we already have the promos confirmed
but this packs promos arent confirmed and we have 4 days until release

Fob4eva - 22. Jan, 09:45

Ridiculous

I don't think this is getting release in January, there is ABSOLUTELY no information about this what so ever.

Dragon King - 22. Jan, 18:44

I agree with you....

I think we should put are stocks with the Order of Chaos-special edition.
bincenzo - 24. Jan, 23:43

Uh-oh...

I spoke to my friend the other day who orders a lot of stuff from konami for tournaments, and the person said this was coming out in March. Now i dont know if that person from konami was confused and thought he meant the order of chaos SE, but i hope its not march

Fob4eva - 25. Jan, 23:51

I believe your comment, its unlikely to happen. Like people are suppose to know what's in special editions months away. Technically from what I read, it was suppose to come out today.
brain_master - 28. Jan, 18:32

????

Well if this ever comes out n it has glow-up bulb n anything else I will buy a couple

judaikunakafish - 4. Feb, 09:17

Tour Guide getting a reprint

Yeah it's happening, but not in this set and not for a while. http://www.yugioh-card.com/en/products/bp-bped.html they just posted this yesterday. Looking forward to this set. Glad I never bought any Tour Guides.

Asdfghjkl1234567890 - 8. Feb, 18:45

PROMOS ANOUNCED!!!!


Dragon King - 9. Feb, 16:46

I have both of them.
brain_master - 9. Feb, 21:31

I have brionic but am going to sell it n get a cheaper one lol
Dragon King - 10. Feb, 01:58

Good idea.....
But I think I'll keep the ones I have.
scorchingwolf - 17. Feb, 01:13

hahahahahahaha!

XD...hahaha i love this by the time all this stuff comes out it doesnt matter how shiny your deck is boils down to skill :)

blackwing dragon - 20. Mar, 04:42

europe gets the super brio while america gets a gold ultra rare
im stoked i want brio i got mine ripped off at the tourney a while back and never had the money to get another one so its a bout damn time
Dragon King - 12. Jul, 16:41

O well......
