To cope with continued supply chain issues, Konami has announced that upcoming product will be released in waves to distributors.
That’s, pretty much it. It’s just an announcement on the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG twitter addressing recent issues with supply and how they intend to solve it by releasing in waves. This years megatin has been confirmed to be affected by this decision.
Due to continued supply chain issues, some of our upcoming Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG products may be shipped in waves to ensure that all distributors, and their stores, have some product available in time for the release date.

The 2021 Tin of Ancient Battles is one of the upcoming products with distribution spread out in waves and will require multiple shipments until distributors receive their full order. Please be patient, as all stores will be stocked up, but not fully on the release date.

Please check with your stores for when they will have additional inventory.
