I purchased your .stl for the insert. Is there a way to purchase the .stl for the token box and damage tokens?
Thanks for your purchase! No sorry, I'm not selling those particular stl files. But if you purchase the physical box/tokens from my website (ninjanerdcraft.com), I have a 10% off code going right now (SUBSCRIBER10) and a free Disney Doorable will be included as well. I only have one Ursula Doorable left, but there are a bunch of other characters still available :)
@@TheNinjaTCG awesome. I think I'll take you up on your offer. Also where do I get the image for the playmate and where can I have it printed? The previous store link is no longer doing business. Thanks a bunch
Ordered 😊
@@jonathonhazelhurst Great! I'll send the playmat file to your purchase email. I'll try and find a different playmat printer link to send you as well.
Perfect, thank you, I couldn’t finger this bs out till I finally found your video
I'm Glad they changed how legendary cards look in shimmering skies. Now you can definitely tell they're real.
Your advice is "get good cuts"?! Okay, but how? 😅 the results are gorgeous, I really want to give this a try.
5* thank you
Maybe you got a too tight run? I've never had a problem sliding the Pokémon cards into my side loader DS Perfect fit sleeves. They are snug but no need to push 2 cards in.
Nice - this helped a ton
Thank you, dude. I'm returning, too. But now I've got $20+ cards double sleeves. All of a sudden, it became very appealing. You're a time saver massively
Thank you! One of the rare times a video offered a solution and it actually worked.
Thank you so much for this video, you are a lifesaver. I had no idea how to store my quest set and I am obsessive about keeping all of my TCG's safe.
@@jennyofalltrades3118 you’re welcome! I’m glad it was helpful!
Do you ship to Canada?
I also signed up for you email list to get the trove insert. Thanks you! This is an awesome solution.
is the trove insert available? My name is Thomas
Did you sign up for the email list using the giveaway link in the description? If so make sure you confirmed your email as well (should have received a confirmation email, some people have had to check their spam folder). The file is only available for free until the end of this week, then it will need to be purchased from my Etsy shop.
@@TheNinjaTCG yup I had confirmed
@@deathbleach I see you in the list as just signed up today. The email with the link can take a bit to send, but let me know if you don’t see it after 24 hours.
Where did you get your playmat printed? I have never made a custom playmat before and I was curious what to do with the file after you send it because I would love a mat like yours!
I’ve used a handful of different companies, but some of them are not great quality (thin) and others take a long time to make/ship. The one I used for this playmat was great quality and pretty fast as well: amzn.to/3yJnF1T
Thank you again for sharing this method. For context I'm trying to gold foil lettering on my custom cards. I did slightly struggle a bit to get the lettering off the vinyl sheet to stick to the transfer tape. A few letters would transfer to the tape. Any advice or recommendations?
If the transfer tape is new the vinyl will stick to it easier. I find that after using it a few times it becomes harder to make it stick. In those cases I have a plastic scraper I use to press the vinyl to the transfer tape to make it stick better. That usually works for me before peeling it off with the transfer tape.
love this, but now you need to do some matching deck boxes too!
First off! This is a person with OCD‘s dream. Ha ha ha I love this idea why has it’s not happened through Disney I feel like they owe you some money. Ha ha ha great job on this.
Thank you, I appreciate it!
I've spent months trying to find videos on how to foil my custom cards and finally came across this. Thank you for sharing! Wish you all the best!
Amazing design! I entered the giveaway specifically for the trove insert! Haha. When will we receive the 3D printing guide for it? Haven’t received via email after entering the giveaway 🙏🏼
What name did you use to enter the giveaway?
Do you sell just the STL file for hobbyists to print themselves?
For the insert, yes. It’s free for anyone that enters the giveaway, but then I’ll make it available for purchase afterwards as well.
Is that trove insert available? its amazing! I entered the giveaway too :)

Hello, I just subscribed and entered the giveaway! I think these upgrades are amazing and definitely will help as I play with my kids! Even if I don't win I would like to purchase the upgrades still, lol. I'll wait to see if I win first though!
Thanks, and good luck in the giveaway!
can we purchase trove insert??? i need that!!
Since you entered the giveaway I’ll just send it to you for free!
I bought the last token set 😅. Hope you plan on making more. Could use a few more sets for kids/wife. And I’d like some different color options 😁.
Thanks for your purchase! I did put some more in stock, and I’m planning on doing some more colors for sure! What colors would you like to see?
@@TheNinjaTCGI know my son is all about red lol. And wife would like black. I’m all about white 😅. But honestly I think if you just do the different ink colors black and white it would be enough. It basically covers most colors.
@@TheNinjaTCGI’m literally waiting to buy the quest until after this in hopes that I win or I can buy one so Friday needs to hurry 😅.
@@josebonilla5658 you should definitely get a quest if you haven’t yet. It’s a lot of fun with or without the upgrades!

You're welcome!
Ohhh brainstorming fuck at 7 min 20 whant it so much
The mountains by Shuler? Yeah, they're pretty cool.
The real fact, and the real problem, is that we can't know how much they can do better in the future this fake cards. This is only the beginning, and no one can say if in the future, with some of very exepensive cards, they can arrive to a level that is impossible understand wich one is real and wich one is fake. That sounds not good for collectors and in general for people that spend their money in this world
The fakes will definitely get better in the future, but I think there will always be ways to tell the differences as well. If you look at the fake cards in Magic, they’ve had over 30 years to perfect the fake cards, but you can still tell the differences if you know what to look for (for example using a jeweler’s loupe). So you’re right, the fakes will get better. But I really believe that we’ll always find ways to be able to tell the difference.
@@TheNinjaTCG i hope, but i m afraid that every time we find a way, they find too. Look at pokemon for example, the first set is every time better. Look what is happening with one piece tcg, little time but already very goods fake. I don t know, and I m surprise that the brands don t do nothing
Thank you so much for this, I have owned around 40 enchanteds, recently I bought 2 that dont feel right. everything checks out though when it comes to shine, artist name, and the artist symbol. Just bought a jewelers loops to confirm the grid in the lore and ink cost, thank you so much! However, could you do me a quick favor, can you check the weights? I've weighed a real and the one i suspect to be fake and they both weigh 30.2 grams
I wish I could, but my scale won't measure something that light. Glad the video was helpful for you!
@@TheNinjaTCG no problem! Does the texture on the back of the card feel any different?
@@PimpPharaoh89 hi, i got the same idea. Normal Lorcana cards are around 1,83g. Foil and none Foil. But enchanteds are exactly 2.00g!! this might be another good indicator. For my next buy, I will carry my fine gram scale, some money (10x50€) and just in case a small bag of oregano.
@@TheGegX the cops will think you sell drugs >< ..
@@Thealiano exactly 😃 So there was this one time. I Had 500 in Cash. The scale and a full microscope. This was weird 😂
I just started double sleeving 400+ cards from my collection. I'm using KMC inner sleeves and katana outers. The KMCs are slightly wide horizontally for inner sleeves, and the Katanas are slightly short horizontally for outer sleeves. It is VERY hard to get the cards in, but the result is very much worth it. The first 100 cards, I've been doing a method where I slightly bend the card and jam the inner sleeved in with my finger. I just tried your method with the card and it works amazingly, even with the the kmc inners and katana outers. Thanks a ton, I subbed to your channel because of this video! -Joe
Glad it helped! I do really like KMC inners as well.
So I pulled a genie enchanted first chapter first wave pre release booster box (record it) the illustrator's name and Disney trademark are both holo it dose have the grid pattern inside both numbers and lore but the lore dot pattern is not unified also have a Elsa that is first wave with the same traits and I have a Aurora enchanted first wave coming that's the same too makes me wonder if this is how you can tell the difference from the first print to the second just a theory
Good to know! Sadly we sold all our first wave enchanteds, otherwise I would check. Thanks for the info!
Just got an enchanted Genie online and it has all the signs of being the real deal apart from the dot pattern in the lore symbols. So it's a relief to know there are genuine cards with the same issue.
Love that Elminister etch, huge nostalgia feel here. Great vid my man
Do you recognize it from the Shadowdale campaign book? That’s where I remembered it from. Loved that artwork of Elminster!
👊 "promosm"
Do you have any more videos playing this deck? I love it!
It really is a fun deck. I don’t have any more videos posted of it, but here’s someone else’s old version of the deck that might be helpful to watch. This was before inklands I think, so some of the cards are different. But this old version did run Teeth and Ambitions, which could really help against decks running Pinocchio (the one that exerts characters). ua-cam.com/video/i99gZMBYHmQ/v-deo.htmlsi=KXJjspbY14m2RVa5
@@TheNinjaTCG yeah I’ve just played a few rounds and that Pinocchio that exerts got me in a spot of trouble so I am going to need something that deals with it.
I don't care if they are fake or not until they are cheap and good looking im waiting for more cards i only find single pieces to buy on aliexpress
Thanks for the video. I had purchased an enchanted from TCG about 6 months ago and this video ensures me that it's real. I also pulled an enchanted myself that I used to compare and o-boy even using a jewelry lense its hard to focus. I had to use 90x magnifying on both cards to see the grid lines. Note: make sure to remove the cards from the toploaders (makes it much easier to see)
I’m glad you got a real one. Seems like it’s pretty safe to get enchanted cards from tcgplayer as long as it’s from a reputable seller with a lot of transactions and good reviews. I got a real one from tcgplayer as well. Glad the video helped you out!
how do you add shines to cards. i have big problem, cuz i foil entire deck, but dust to dust never relese as foil so i try acrylic paint at empty foil card, but is not that thin, so maybe add some shines could made the work?
Wow! Great video! Very well done! Props to you! Thanks for educating us!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
This deck is very good against Ruby Amethyst control and Ruby Sapphire (slow decks trying to get to their Be Prepared), especially when playing best of one / regular ranked on Pixelborn. These decks were heavy in the meta when I ranked up to Platinum really quickly. But it has a poor matchup against Steel decks like Amber Steel songs, Emerald Steel (anything with grab your swords and Tinker Bell), etc. So just keep that in mind if that's where the meta heads.
How does it match up if its best of 3 matches? You only showed one game each where you go first. How does it do if you go 2nd or have best of 3 matches
It still does really well in those matchups going second in best of one. It doesn’t do as well in best of three because people aren’t fooled into thinking they’re playing RA control. And if the meta changes to more steel (emerald steel seems to be coming back in) I’d switch to emerald Amethyst tempo in best of three.
Just discovered your channel. Love it! Good job!
Thanks!
Not a Lorcana man, but showing the support anyway ! 🤘🦁🤘
Thanks, always appreciated!!
Any tips when looking at cards on eBay or Facebook MP when your potentially buying based off pictures?
If possible I’d ask for at least a picture of the symbol in front of the artist’s name. They should be able to zoom in 10x on their camera phone so that you can clearly see from that symbol if it’s real or fake. Otherwise sometimes I can tell from the surge foil pattern (more subtle and swirly for real Enchanteds compared to jagged and less subtle for fakes) if it’s fake, but that’s not a great way to identify fakes from just a picture. Video or zoomed in pics would be much better.
Inconsistency in the printing process makes a lot of these 'sure fire' methods of determining if a card is fake inaccurate.
Definitely. And that’s why I really wanted to go through a few methods with a jeweler’s loupe that will stay consistent even with the printing inconsistencies.
I was opening product with a store owner and we both noticed cards with different card stock! The saturation, cut, and feel were different on legit cards. I do not trade or buy unless I see the card being open or its my close friends.
@@KnJ0715 That's definitely a way to stay safe by only opening yourself or getting from friends. But with some of the tips in this video people should feel pretty safe getting from other reputable sellers or doing an in-person trade/purchase since you can check these things before buying.
Thank you so much. I got four different shade Rapunzel. Your check confirmed that they are legit.
The printing variations are definitely a bit all over the place with some of the cards. Glad it helped!
Tysm for this video super informative and accurate - so many people be making up straight up BS ways to spot fakes like the “corners” or the foil names so I’m glad this exists 🫡🫡❤
For real! It gets me when people say “it’s 100% fake” from a crappy picture in the fb group lol. Glad this is helpful for people. And thanks for stopping by, I enjoy your content!
Thank you for this informative video. It is a great help to the Lorcana collecting community! 👏👏
You’re welcome, glad it’s helpful!
Nice video, learned a few tricks with the jeweler loupe On top of it, non-enchanted fake cards are very very light on the color used, just look at the color difference on the 2 beast, the left one is the fake This is also true on the back side with the yellow lines, fakes are way much brighter (also true on enchanted) Enchanted weights differ if they are fakes (1.85g vs 1.96-2.03g range for real)
You got it, the left one was the fake. You can really see it when comparing the legendary symbols. The fake one looks more like copper than gold. And thanks for sharing the weight differences!
Most impressive. Thank you for the breakdown and analysis. Similar in identifying the fake MTG cards. The jewelers loupe is very handy. It’s astounding and unfortunate that fakes have already made their way into the Lorcana market so early into the game. It is good to give the community knowledge in understanding and identifying these to hopefully weed out and keep out these fake cards.
Thanks for watching! Yes it’s unfortunate, but luckily the fakes aren’t as good as the Magic ones yet. I’m guessing part of it is because all the real Lorcana cards have been printed in the USA as far as I know. The printers in China haven’t quite figured out everything yet. I didn’t go over it in the video, but even the surge foil pattern is fairly different if you look closely.
Same counts for every other TCG ... them counterfits are harder and harder to distinguish. 🫣😡🤬
