Get ready all of our Yu-Gi-Oh! duelists and/or trading card collectors. This Friday, the 17, new product will be hitting the shelves! Are you ready for the newest booster packs and accessories?
First from Konami we get the Legendary Duelists Magical Hero booster packs. This set features Yugi’s Dark Magician and Dark Magician Girl. For the first time ever the Dark Magician and Dark Magician Girl will be able to fight together as a single Fusion Monster – Dark Magicians! One new card you will possibly pull from a booster pack is Magicians’ Souls, a new effect monster that guarantees you to summon either the Dark Magician or Dark Magician Girl when you need them.
The total cards in this Legendary Duelist Magical Hero booster set is 56 to include: 29 Commons; 10 Rares; 8 Super Rares; and 9 Ultra Rares.
But that’s not all that will be hitting stores this Friday. There is also the Ash Blossom Accessories! These are coming to you earlier than expected. The release date was originally February 14, but Konami wanted to give everyone a surprise, so they moved up the release date to this Friday! Accessories that will be available will be: a Gaming Mat; Card Sleeves; a Card Case; and a Duelist Portfolio.

Bond is back!… and it looks like another good one. Check out No Time to Die’s trailer from the James Bond 007 YouTube channel:
Plastic Martyr is sharing with us her single “Love in the Dark”. Her music video for the single has recently dropped and she wanted to share it with our listeners here are ComicPop Library.
The single covers a harsh reality for several people that their love is not always enjoyed and shown to all to see by their partner. This really hits the heart hard when everyone in this world is looking to be loved and wants the whole world to see that love shining through.
Plastic Martyr takes that serious theme and weaves a powerful ballad around it. I love her voice and how it isn’t drowned out by the instrumentals. The down beat that she has in this single gets the beat into your body and makes it move with the rhythm.
Really enjoy this single and can’t wait to hear what she comes out with next. Here’s Plastic Martyr’s “Love in the Dark” music video through her YouTube channel and be sure to download her single from your digital vendor of choice – Richard:

A couple of days ago you will remember me posting Samantha Aurelio’s single “Learn the Hard Way” as a primer for her new releases come November 22, “Sleep in Pieces”. We’ll as Samantha promised the single was released on the 22 and you can go check it out through your digital vendor or through us here. “Sleep in Pieces”
I’m loving Samantha’s lower alto register, it provides a very smooth quality for her singles. The rhythm of “Sleep in Pieces” is nice and strong, but the lyrics themselves are melancholy. All around a well put together song that will capture a persons interest and have them singing along.
So without further ado here is Samantha Aurelio’s “Sleep in Pieces” through Spotify – Richard:
Konami and Hill and Knowlton Strategies is giving our listeners an earlier glance at what is coming to the Yu-Gi-Oh TCG. The new set is Duel Overload and it’s expected release date will be March 20.
Beyond the unprecedented arsenal of Link Monsters, you’ll also find new cards for fans of the Yu-Gi-Oh! movies: Yu-Gi-Oh! The Dark Side of Dimensions and Yu-Gi-Oh! Bonds Beyond Time! New cards for Paradox’s Malefic strategy and Aigami’s Cubic Deck make their debut in Duel Overload, so Duelists who started building their Cubic Deck through Yu-Gi-Oh! The Dark Side of Dimensions: Movie Pack Secret Edition will have plenty to look forward to.
In addition to the 56 total new cards, the Duel Overload set has 44 returning cards from previous sets as well, bringing the total set size to 100 cards. These cards have been chosen to help Duelists to bolster their existing Decks or build new Decks that they might be missing a critical piece of. For example, Duelists interested in building Cyberse Decks like Marincess from Rising Rampage and Chaos Impact, Mathmech from Mystic Fighters, or @Ignister from Ignition Assault, can find the all-purpose wildcard, Cynet Mining.
Each Duel Overload box comes with:
6 Duel Overload booster packs, each with 5 Ultra Rare cards per pack
1 of 6 special oversized collectible cards
The complete Duel Overload booster set contains 100 cards
Okay you have been warned this trailer contains violence and adult language. So don’t watch it if that type of thing bothers you. That being said this trailer is hilarious and I wish we had the DC Universe app to watch the upcoming Harley Quinn animated series along with all the other shows we would love to see. Logan and I will have to watch this when it comes out on Blu-ray/DVD. Cannot wait, looks like so much fun! Check out the trailer through IGN’s YouTube channel – Richard:
