If you’re a fan of Yu-Gi-Oh!, you may want to check out Duel Art: Kazuki Takahashi Yu-Gi-Oh! Illustrations, just released by Udon Entertainment. The book is 128 pages of full-color magazine covers, card artwork, rare illustrations, and rough concepts from Kazuki Takahashi, the original artist from the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga.

Cover price is $39.99, but you can find it for around $28 at Amazon.

Yu-Gi-Oh! has been around for 13 years in North America, and still has a strong fan base. Having recently gotten into the game myself, I’ll at least give this a browse if I can find a copy in my local book store. I’m a fan of Takahashi’s style, and would love to see how the art has evolved over the years.

Yu-Gi-Oh! is really the king of CCG releases. With the Clash of Rebellions Special Edition boxes you get 3 booster packs with a guaranteed 1 of 2 Super Rare variant cards, plus 1 of 2 foil version preview cards of non-foil cards from the upcoming January set. The new Super Rares you can snag are Ultimaya Tzolkin or Frightfur Tiger. New themes added with these boosters include Igknights and Aromages. Igknights burn up cards in order to summon more powerful cards, while Aromages beef up your Life Points and provide other special powers as long as you’re in the lead.

We won’t be seeing these boxes until the holidays, but they’ll be worth, considering you can snag ’em for less than the price of 3 boosters alone.
