So, this is mostly a post just to relate that I'm giddy about the fact that my wonderful girlfriend and I have managed to put our finances on stable enough ground in time for me to pre-order one of the last boxes that Full Moon Games had available of Avacyn Restored, so I have a chance to crack some packs tomorrow night at midnight.
In other news, I've started hearing more and more about 3d altered art cards and I have to say I'm intrigued. The first I heard of it was a friend of mine in Florida mentioned seeing some at a local shop in Tampa. Which is pretty cool and I thought it was a novel idea. But with EDH (Now called commander because Wizards can't leave well enough alone), I can really see that having a few really fun generals made into 3d cards could be fun and enjoyable. Also, I read on TCG play (or perhaps it was Quiet Speculation) that a judge at a major event (I believe it was a PTQ) last week cleared a 3D Delver of Secrets for play so long as the required checklist card was actually the one sleeved up. That means that 3d versions of the flip cards are actually legal for play. That makes me want to get a few Delvers. Also it made me start thinking about the idea of using 3d tokens. After a brief google search, there were some really cool ideas for these 3d cards. Some include abacus type counters or even the older style spinning counters that used to come in fat packs. I love this idea. I think it would be really cool to have a few 3d Tokens with counters to keep track of numbers for my token decks. Anyone think they can pull off making these kinds of things and doing it well? If so, there may be commissions in your future.
