So as I said, I am going to be doing product reviews here and there so you can find out about things in a bit more detail before you buy them instead of making an investment based off some stock image. Let's face it. Anime deck boxes (in this case a double deck box) are starting to become the norm when it comes to going to locals, regionals, or higher. Everyone wants to show off some kind of personal flare and creative tastes. This is primarily because the card gaming culture and the Otaku cultures have a tendency to bleed into each other, so it seems only natural to marry the two.
Now onto the actual review~
I decided to buy this deck case because as you may have guessed, my favorite anime is Kanon! I payed around $30 Canadian after shipping for this from someone on ebay. It is a very old deck box and is out of print, so I had no other choice as they are incredibly scarce and wouldn't have been able to locate one at 99.9% of hobby shops both locally and online. Normally, however, if you were to buy an anime double deck box around the time it is released, it would only run you about $15 dollars, and around $10 for a single size deck box.

| Here is Ayu-chan in her signature area in the forest. The colors are spot on, and the printing job is very crisp and boasts a considerable amount of detail and sharpness. The actual deck box measures about 5" wide, 4" deep, and 3" high. It is quite a bit larger and bulkier than your typical Ultra-Pro cheapy deck box, but it is made with a much more rigid plastic. Do make sure to be careful when taking it places, so as to avoid squashing it. You payed good money for it after all! |
