Yu-Gi-Oh!: Maximum Crisis Booster Display


$95.76 SRP
NPI

The walls between dimensions are collapsing and the supreme king of destruction will rise in Maximum Crisis, May's all-new 100-card booster set! Maximum Crisis is the climax of the 2016-2017 Dueling season, introducing three new themes as well as bold new cards for a wide variety of popular Decks.

Pendulum Summoning will undergo its final evolution in Maximum Crisis with a pair of Pendulum Monsters with Scales of 0 and 13, opening up the ability to Pendulum Summon monsters of any Level in any Deck! But that's not the only type of Summoning that's evolving. Following up on February's Fusion Enforcers set, Maximum Crisis introduces a new Fusion Summoning Spell Card that lets you keep your Fusion Monster while giving back the monsters you just fused together!

Here's a brief overview of what else you can expect in Maximum Crisis:
  • The dawn of the "True Draco" monsters! These monsters can be Tribute Summoned using Continuous Spell/Trap Cards instead of monsters, and their Continuous Spell/Trap Cards have multiple effects depending on whether you just activate them or Tribute them.
  • A brand new way to win a Duel! Even if you can't damage your opponent with this new theme's ace monster, if you can power it up enough, destroying 3 of your opponent's monsters with it will automatically end the Duel!
  • New Winged Beasts that fly over enemy monsters for fast direct attacks and effects that inflict damage.
  • Individually powerful cards to cover a variety of common situations in everyday Dueling.
  • The mastermind behind the global plot has been revealed, and SPYRAL embarks on its final mission to take him down!
  • All is not yet lost! The final battle against the Subterror Behemoths begins… and the Subterror Nemeses receive help from an unlikely source!
  • Cards that boost Decks and themes from Fusion Enforcers, Raging Tempest, the Pendulum Domination Structure Deck, Invasion: Vengeance, The Dark Illusion, Shining Victories, Wing Raiders, the Master of Pendulum Structure Deck, High-Speed Riders, and more!

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Machine Reactor/Dinomasher's Fury Structure Deck

$79.92 SRP
NPI

Technology vs. Tyrannos! Take part in the ultimate battle between man-made monstrosities and the greatest predators nature has ever produced with the Machine Reactor Structure Deck and Dinosmasher's Fury Structure Deck.

The Machine Reactor Structure Deck uses the popular "Gadget" series of monsters, most recently seen in Movie Pack Gold Edition, to power up gargantuan "Ancient Gear" monsters. You can add your Gold Gadget and Silver Gadget from the Movie Pack to this Deck to help Summon the new Ancient Gear Gadget – a monster that belongs to both themes and turns this Deck's ace monster, Ancient Gear Reactor Dragon, into a 3000 ATK double-attacking, defense-piercing, card destroying behemoth!

The Ancient Gear theme first debuted in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, the animated series that put Fusion Summoning at the forefront, so the Machine Reactor Structure Deck can be enhanced further with "Ancient Gear" Fusion Monsters from Raging Tempest and an upcoming Spell Card from Maximum Crisis that will let you Fusion Summon and Tribute Summon using the same 2 monsters in the same turn!

For those of you who prefer natural history over mankind's machinations, the Dinosmasher's Fury Structure Deck provides the ultimate prehistoric Dueling experience! It's survival of the fittest, and only the strongest cards in your Deck will make it. The rest will be food for the apex predator, Ultimate Conductor Tyranno, a 3500 ATK monster that can send all enemy monsters cowering in fear before devouring them all in a single Battle Phase!

This Deck is adept at Summoning multiple Dinosaurs of the same Level at the same time, and most of those monsters are Level 4. That makes this Deck a perfect fit for Xyz Summoning! Duelist Saga and Maximum Crisis both have great Rank 4 Xyz Monsters that are perfect fits for this strategy.

Please note: The display configuration will be as follows: 5 Dinosmasher's Fury Structure Decks and 3 Machine Reactor Structure Decks per display.

Each Machine Reactor Structure Deck contains:
  • 36 Commons
  • 3 Super Rares
  • 2 Ultra Rares
  • Ancient Gear Token
  • Beginner's Guide
  • Double-sided Deluxe Game Mat/Dueling Guide
