It was announced a short while ago that the Digimon 02 Movie Pack tie ins would be made legal after a waiting period. Because they were only given as a pack of 3 cards from a 14 card pool for the first 50 attendees to American cinemas, these cards are in limited supply.

For those not in participating cinemas, or just outside the USA, there is only 1 official way to get product. The Bandai premium product website for the low, low price of $80 plus shipping. It’s a hefty price tag, but it guarantees all 14 cards, as alternate artworks, 50 sleeves and 5 egg sleeves.

Additionally, the set contains Imperialdramon Dragon Mode ACE, currently only otherwise available unfoiled in the Imperialdramon Demo Deck. A tie in for BT14 that has seen inconsistent shipping in Europe.

Digimon 02 card legality

The new cards of the demo deck have an earlier legality date, likely due to the cards being more widely available, even with European shipping issues. The following cards become unbanned November 24th.

P-109 Imperialdramon: Dragon Mode ACE
P-117 Veemon
P-123 Ukkomon
P-124 Davis Motomiya
P-130 Lui Ohwada

As with all other ban lists, any artwork variant of those cards becomes legal at the same time. The latter 4 from the list will have 3 artwork variations due to having different prints for the Demo Deck, Movie Pack and Bandai Premium Product (BPP).

The remaining cards of the Movie Pack become legal on December 8th. As distribution outside of the movie tie in and the BPP has not been announced, we expect some sort of announcement soon for wider availability.

P-118 Wormmon
P-119 Hawkmon
P-120 Gatomon
P-121 Armadillomon
P-122 Patamon
P-125 Ken Ichijoji
P-126 Yolei Inoue
P-127 Kari Kamiya
P-128 Cody Hida
P-129 T.K. Takaishi
