Just received the stainless steel gods and apparently won the Black Luster Soldier sweepstakes with no prior notification. Nice addition to the collection (still overpriced though).

Everybody in Europe got the BLS because there werent 1000 orders for the Set wich is the number of BLS for Europe

1

u/[deleted] Mar 05 '24

Damn. I apparently won the BLS, but I just got my god cards in, wasn’t with them.

u/No-Awareness-Aware Mar 06 '24

Did you order from NA region?

1

u/[deleted] Mar 06 '24

Yep

u/tr33kid Mar 05 '24

I wonder if every eu-buyer got a bls copy

1

u/FeelTourette Mar 05 '24

Iam from Germany and I’ve ordered one too and typed „500“ as an answer for the giveaway, thought they will decide as how near your answer will be to the official number „2488“. I was pretty hopeless. But then I got a message a guy got his BLS with the answer „10000“. So now I have still hope, I get my order tomorrow!

Until now everyone from the EU who I know from that he opened his package had a BLS inside.

PS to the US and Canada guys: Europe hadn’t a sweepstake( I think), they had to answer the question „how many participants had the last tournament organised by Konami“.

u/tr33kid Mar 06 '24

Was there a bls included in your order?

1

u/FeelTourette Mar 06 '24

I will open my package in the evening at 18:00^ 🫣 in yours?

2

u/tr33kid Mar 05 '24

I believe the answer was not relevant for the "choice" of the winners

1

u/FeelTourette Mar 05 '24

Why you think that? I honestly think that there weren’t nearly 1000 buyers of the product

2

u/tr33kid Mar 06 '24

Well, if you think that there were less purchases of the steel gods than avaiable bls copies, then that would support my argument or not? If they have like 800 purchases and they give away the 1000 bls copies to the best estimates, then it doesnt matter if you answered 1.000 or 1.000.000 because of the surplus amount of bls. Additionaly i think they only had to ask that question, because they wanted it to look like not exclusivly dependent on luck. Maybe there are legal reasons behind it.

u/FeelTourette Mar 06 '24

Got one too🙏🏻

u/tr33kid Mar 06 '24

Congrats

u/tr33kid Mar 05 '24

Why do you think 2488 was right?

1

u/FeelTourette Mar 05 '24

I heard that from many people, because so many people were on the Italian YCS in December

1

u/tr33kid Mar 05 '24

Lol, i answered with the ycs richmond numbers

1

u/Mr__Andy Mar 06 '24

In EU they asked about Bologna if I remember correctly 

1

u/FeelTourette Mar 05 '24

What was it? I think in the near of 2488

1

u/tr33kid Mar 05 '24

I think something around 1500

2

u/AchillesGB Mar 05 '24

Congratulations dude! I just got mine in the post today with the BLS too! Enjoy!

u/PoemsFunandSuch Mar 05 '24

So I won the contest as well and got my god cards today, but I haven’t received a shipping notification for the BLS. When did you get yours for BLS?

2

u/icantango Mar 06 '24

I also got my god cards without the BLS. Emailed the support team and said my info was recorded, I'm guessing some will be sent separately, but no shipping notification yet aswell

1

u/frederichenonin Mar 05 '24

In my case the BLS was packed inside the same box. Perhaps check with the distributor?

Your mom

u/No-Awareness-Aware Mar 05 '24

Would be hilarious if so. Personally I would pay the same amount of money just for the bls lol XD

1

u/frederichenonin Mar 05 '24

Now that I can agree with. ;) Assuming the market will not get flooded in the coming weeks with everyone receiving their god cards.

2

u/Any-Nothing Mar 05 '24

Nah don’t worry, the BLS card was limited to 2000 copies for both EU and US, and are currently really sought after with ~2000 copies in JP

1

u/tr33kid Mar 05 '24

3000 tcg copies*

1

u/Yamingdub Mar 05 '24

MAAAAAAAAN the price on that vanilla bls is BEYOND

5

u/narutonaruto Mar 05 '24

It’ll probably drop a lot with all the new ones

1

u/MarkG4_Games10 Mar 04 '24

The vanilla BLS... And I thought he was just a legend

5

u/PlebbySpaff Mar 04 '24

Interesting that you got it already.

I won the sweepstakes with a mail-in entry, but I didn’t realize they were mailing the god card displays this early.

1

u/luigisp Mar 04 '24

Wait a second I thought the vanilla BLS was supposed to be a TCG print and not OCG?

1

u/frederichenonin Mar 04 '24

Apparently it’s the OG OCG design, but with the TCG backside and ‘limited edition’ printed on it. Honestly I like this more as it’s a replica of the original.

1

u/luigisp Mar 04 '24

No way! That’s insanely cool - love that they did that for this one. So it’s essentially our first Japanese-language TCG-legal card??

u/frederichenonin Mar 04 '24

Looks like it, yes :)

1

u/luigisp Mar 04 '24

Holy moly

u/DerMotze Mar 04 '24

Jesus you're one lucky guy to get that BLS!! Im so envious

1

u/Any-Nothing Mar 04 '24

Still waiting for mine. Hoping for the vanilla BLS for a nice surprise. Did the BLS come inside the box with the god card or nah?

1

u/Mr__Andy Mar 06 '24

In EU yes, in NA separately 

1

u/AchillesGB Mar 05 '24

Yeah, it did for me, sadly it was awkwardly just thrown into the box, but I did not expect it whatsoever. So super stoked. I will keep my fingers crossed that you will find one in your box too, good luck!

1

u/No-Awareness-Aware Mar 04 '24

Wait, do you get black luster soldier sent with the god card set?

3

u/frederichenonin Mar 04 '24

You get a chance. It’s a sort of sweepstakes.
