Gee, I can’t think of a single reason why this might be happening.
“Due to delays in production, the release of Legendary 5D’s Decks will be moved from November 7 to November 21. This delay impacts English-language product in North and Latin America only.“
Curiously, it seems this is a First World Problem for many players. Meanwhile in Japan, for many Japanese players, especially notable in Rush Duel, there is never a delay. ITS TCG-OVER!
The Aki deck will be the first female anime character inspired deck since Mai’s Harpies got Lord of the Storm SD.
I’d like to see a Jaden/Chazz/Alexis box set. Chazz deck could collect all of the Armed Dragon cards Konami been releasing sporadically. Although, with all character decks, I’d rather see them get a handful of unreleased anime cards or appropriate new cards over being purely a reprint product. Marketing is probably just using the budget that was going to the Speed Duel Box Sets production before for this product, though, which doesn’t account for R&D of new cards.
Considering “The Chronicles Deck” would had been way too much of a close release window next to this 5Ds deck set… As such, I am not shocked they decided to delay it in order to not step on their own feet from overlapping the sales of both separate premade deck sets.

This is what happens when you leave out the Master of Faster.
He already got his own structure deck a few years ago.
What is the reason that the writer sarcastically hints to? I Don’t read much news lately
I would assume tariffs but not sure how a two week delay would change anything.
I don’t think it’s tariffs because this also impacts Latin America too not just the USA.
this site employs a slew of Black Radical Leftists to circulate their “news” so i wouldn’t worry about their snippy asides
Elizabeth, you come off as inbred.
The current American government deserves all the snippy asides and much more
This is probably going to be a Christmas gift for most people so I guess it doesn’t really matter.
Legendary 5D(elay)s
I wonder if the Crow stuff will have any his Arc V stuff or will they mainly cards be based on 5Ds?
Maybe it’ll reprint some of those manga promos.

Thanks Trump >:(
Word numerical World position is Japan?
*What numerical World position is Japan in this context?
rush duel itself is a crime. we are happy to have delays if we have no rush duel.
Am not surprised but I am annoyed!

At least it was only delayed a couple of weeks; the worst thing would have been if it had been a month or if there had been no set date at all.
Yeah a couple of weeks is nothing and even might be beneficial to them somewhat as it’s closer to the holidays.
i knew this was happening because there hadnt been any reveals about the decks yet.
I wonder when we will get some reveals.

question: is the included Yusei deck basically the “Structure Deck: Power of Fellows” that got released in Japan?
It is assumed to be so, yes.
Rare instance the EU isn’t impacted by thing.
