Aside that, ancestry has nothing to do with being a British colony. You realize we declared our independence from Britain 248 years ago… right? There was kind of a whole war over it, which we won.

This got me a bit pissed. We never get anything exclusive for us. Usually it is NA or Japan. Never or super super rarily EU. Because when has EU ever gotten NA exclusives. We haven't. I will tell you we will not get the retro packs here. I am happy NA fans will get it too because the set is very cool, don't get me wrong. But it makes me upset that EU never gets exclusives in any card game and when we finally do it always goes to other countries a few weeks or a month or so later. So it isn't exclusive. it isn't for us specifically.

Yeah, I'm not European but generally speaking... If they had just given both territories them, but released Retro Pack in European Territories at the same time they released LoD here, it would of harbored a lot more good will from the community.

I think they are made in Belgium (standard place in the EU, like it’s written on), but in displays of 24 boosters (standard booster box), then shipped to US and repacked into those retail boxes with 4 boosters. They are not the usual retail boxes you get in the EU. EU has just “Tuckboxes” with 3 boosters in it for retail. So I think, they get the new packaging in the US later on.

Never found any place that does trade nights or sells singles either. So yeah, definitely jealous of the easy access you guys in the US have. :'D

Well I think the same that happens here with Yugioh happened in this case. We don't have a company here that prints Yugioh, so it's all imported either from the US or Europe. For you, it must've happened only with LOTD since maybe retailers like Walmart and Target saw that there was an interest in the product and had a channel to buy and import it to the US. That would be my take, I hope it's easy to get and there's a lot for everyone!

So I just took a look at the packs in my Light of Destruction European booster box, and the text on the back is exactly the same as the ones you showed in the video. What's interesting is... I checked some other European pack wrappers from recent worldwide sets and none of them have that text about Konami US in California and the US support email, they only have the UK and German branch details and the EU support email. This suggests to me that they had planned all along to repackage these packs to sell in the US, given they seem to be the only recent EU-print packs with Konami US' address and contact details. I wonder if someone in the US who has access to Retro Pack booster packs could check the back of those and see if they have European details on them too? That might give us a clue as to whether they're going to eventually start selling that in EU too.
