The Holidays are around the corner, and that means Konami is planning on releasing another set of collectible tins for 2012. Announced during San Diego Comic-Con in July, both the Ninja Grandmaster Hanzo and Hieratic Sun Dragon Overlord of Heliopolis Tins became the talk of the internet forums. Fans would discuss about the cards and what would possibly be inside the tins. Well it’s about two weeks before the tins’ release, and Konami has just released some of the most powerful and useful cards, complementing the previous tins.

I have to say Konami has some really amazing tins here. Plenty of shops have been selling out of pre-orders after the final announcements. Maxx ”C”, Rescue Rabbit, Tour Guide From the Underworld, Number 16: Shock Master…and that’s only the Hanzo Tin. We didn’t even mention what you might pull out of the extra packs. Those cards alone make the tin a must have.

I’m going to be hunting these tins down on release date. Next week is the Abyss Rising sneak peek. 

The Ninja Grandmaster Hanzo and Hieratic Sun Dragon Overlord of Heliopolis Collectible Tin release October 30th, for an MSRP of $19.99 each.

“It is never too early to get into the holiday spirit, so on October 30th Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc. (Konami), the maker of the global sensation, the Yu-Gi-Oh!
