(KDE) will bring back memories of past Dueling glory and release, for the first time ever, select cards used by Yugi Muto in the hit original Yu-Gi-Oh! animated series. With all new art for classic favorites such as “Summoned Skull” and “Dark Magician Girl,” Duelist Pack – Yugi – is sure to be a hit with both established and new Duelists. Duelist Pack – Yugi – is now available at both hobby and retail stores nationwide at a MSRP of $1.99 per six card Booster Pack (five game cards and one strategy card).
