I’m emotional as hell right now seeing these cards. The fact that I held these first editions personally as a kid brings so much joy. Long live the weebs
Makes it all the more sadder that these things are super expensive now. I went to buy the old starter decks again to have them again and all I could find was unopened Spanish decks for over 500. It's a total downer
As someone who played back when this set was fresh in 2002/2003, this is one of the craziest/coolest things I've ever seen. Edit: That Tri-horn and Red Eyes Reveal almost made me cry, two super nostalgic cards for me. Thanks SU!
Wow, this by far your greatest video on this channel, loved every minute of it, definitely a roller coaster watching this. I would choose Tri-Horned Dragon as my card to grade.
Absolutely insane to see a full set of LOB graded in the same submission, even if a mix of wavy and glossy! Great video. Personally the most nostalgic LOB card for me is red eyes, but for commons, flame manipulator haha
Wow is all I can say at the end truthfully, going from extremely excited to extremely calm and collective at the end. I probably would of lost my mind but this was incredible honestly. As for the 2 cards that didn't get graded I noticed instantly with the fusion card, if you saw the attack/defense print compared to the other cards you can easily tell it was different. The spell card my only guess would of been the text on the top is all I could make from it.
Bro I watched this entire thing, thank you so much for uploading!! It was an absolute joy to watch and I could feel the emotion throughout the whole video! Congratulations on the grades! Absolute BANGERS in here! The fact you managed to submit every card from the set is nothing short of impressive. You should all be so proud of yourselves! If I was to grade a card from the set that was non-holo, it would have to be the field spells without a doubt. Feel like they were so iconic and played such a massive role in duelist kingdom.
as someone who opened LOB 2002 packs when they first came onto the shelves, and played with starter deck Kaiba and Yugi with my friends back in the day, this video is special, such a cool thing to witness
I would want Exodia graded. He is such a nostalgic card set for me. I remember watching the show when I was kid and was completely blown away by how cool he was.
Man, that Dragoness hurts so much, worst part is that at first glance it looks good, but you can see the details once you inpect the rest. But still, what a mission to accomplish and succeed with the rest of LOB, literal legends all across the board
If I could have any card from LOB graded, it would be Witty Phantom. When i was around 6-7 years old i found yugioh for the first time and cards like Witty Phantom, Trial of Hell/Nightmare and Dark King of the Abyss really cemented my love for fiends early on. I really fell in love with him during the Legendary Heroes arc of the anime when he kidnapped Kaiba. I still play primarily fiend decks to this day, and Witty Phantom was always my favorite. I called it my "soul card" growing up.
SU spent somewhere around $1,500 to grade all 50 of these cards with the sub grading (centering, corners, edges, surface). He easily made all that back just from 8 $200/rare card. I would never sell any of those Ultra Rares and probably Secret Rares so there goes most of the value but also the huge value is the set as a whole so this is truly a personal graded collection.
Incredible. Loved coming along for the ride. A truly awesome experience that must have been to go through all of those. Brings me back to when I was 11 years old.
Really cool/nostalgic video! The card I would want graded the most would be Flame Swordsman. Loved the look of it in the anime and personally my favourite artwork of the set.
This is amazing🤩 honestly if I could grade any 1st Ed LOB it would either be Exodia the forbidden one or Red-eyes. Both have always been a childhood favorite.
Even though I didn't grew up with these cards back then, this is one of the most CLASSIC Yu-Gi-Oh! videos I've ever seen! 👌🏽 Very interesting, cool and INSANE to see these very first collection of cards from the TCG graded like this from CGC. Thank you for creating and sharing this with us Simply Squad Team! 👍🏽I think I would like Celtic Guardian to be slabbed and graded in my collection! He reminds me of Link from Legend of Zelda, which is one my favorite gaming franchises to play. (Btw whenever you Simply Roman, got HYPED from your first time reactions, I got HYPED too. LOL.😆It was fun though!)
Who would have thought growing up when I was asked what I wanted to be, the answer would be a guy opening a box full of Legend of Blue Eyes slabs. Curse of the Dragon was my personal favorite.
If I could only slab 1 card from LOB, I'd choose Red-Eyes B. Dragon. I think it encompasses the set really well. It's a simple, nostalgic, vanilla monster card that uses the original anime art. My 2nd choice would be Monster Reborn 💎
What a blessing to be able to do something this amazing on your channel. Thank you for sharing this awesome experience with us my bro I really loved the nostalgic memories
if i could get 1 card graded card from LOB it would have to be the exodia head it was one of the first holos i pulled from that set back in the day in my 1st ever booster box i ever bought back in the day. that head of exodia is also a great card art as well.
EPIC! CRAZY! AMAZING! What A Video! If I Had To Pick Just One Card To Grade From LOB It Would Have To Be Dark Magician! It Was Yugi's Main Go To Monster. Also The Evolution Of This Card Through The Anime And The Connection It Had With Yugi/Atem Was Storytelling At It's Best.
i remeber when i was a kid and yugioh came out. i managed to get 3 raigekis, 3 blue eyes. kept it all in my pocket with rubber bands in case i ever needed to duel on the streets!
Some people dislike the prices on screen and all, but, if this video isn't proof of just how much he loves yu-gi-oh, I don't know what is. Congrats brother!
Honestly I would say Raigeki for me. It was one of the staples in the game for the longest. To have a graded one would be so cool and I need to pick one up one day.
I had a Skull Knight that looked like that Dragoness. The red/orange back, the blurry Yu-Gi-Oh logo on the corner, the ink on the ATK/DEF was off. I pulled my Skull Knight out of a quarter machine. And my friends saw me pull it, so we figured it was real, but there was always that doubt. Lol I think it's a really good knockoff though.
Oh man, I am super excited to watch this and see what everything gets, wow. For me personally, I would want to grade a 1st edition Swords of Revealing Light and/or Monster Reborn as both of those are my absolute favorite and most nostalgic from the set. I love Blue Eyes of course and it’s obviously super valuable but SDK is my favorite printing of Blue Eyes and Dark Magician is my favorite monster but especially the SDY. I hope you get some absolutely amazing grades, you definitely deserve it for putting this together for all of us, thank you and good luck.
As someone that still has a decent amount of cards like these from childhood this makes me happy, all 5 of my 1st ed lob blue eyes would get a 1 if i was lucky! wish i took better care of my cards, they still look sick in my binder!
Celtic guardian is my fave card ever (see my profile pic) I have literally hundreds of copies of this card, including all arts of the original. All the obnoxious, and all of the noble arms (as well as triggered summon, which has CG in the art) I.collect every copy I can find, regardless of set, rarity, edition, or condition, language. My favorite parts of the collection are.. • a few 1st Ed LOB •few high rarity Japanese versions •some orcas I had made with anime style card front/back •and my first obnoxious (tin version) that was stolen from me, and I was able to recover from someone else (had very distinguishable marks on the back) •...and probs few others I'm forgetting atm
I would pick Man Eater Bug. My brother and I constantly came up with our own ruleset since the TV show didn't always match up with the cards, and we would argue/abuse flip effect monsters, arguing about whether you can use a trap card against a flip effect and yada yada yada, Man Eater Bug became the most sought after card in our collection, and placing any monster in face down defense position was an instant argument waiting to happen. Good times.
I grow up with such a great collection and it hurts me to this day knowing I dont have any of the cards any more. My favorite was Man eater bug. I don tknow why but I loved having him for duels.
Awesome video!! Keep up the great work. Growing up I always prized my Blue Eyes White Dragon, that’s what I would get graded. Till this day my favorite card!!
Such an awesome video. No one makes you feel the passion and nostalgia like simply unlucky. By FAR my favorite yugituber. That wavy red eyes tho 😮 my stars!
A big THANK YOU for your content and passion SimplyUnlucky! Been a follower for years and to see you accomplish these feats it is indeed inspirational. OH BABY!
Red eyes black dragon. I pulled it out of a pack from target when I was a teen it was the only rare card of that caliber I ever pulled myself. Great vid SU
I remember back in the day when this set first came out me and my mum went through the supermarket (globus in germany) as a 7 years old i was sitting in the shopping cart while my mum drove me around After I've seen this pack for the first time of my life I wanted a pack so bad .. and of course my super loving mum bought me a pack of Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon .. and i pulled that RAIGEKI out of my first pack ever OH BABY! My mom is in a coma since almost half a year right now .. I LOVE YOU MAMA ❤
If I were to slab one card from LOB I think it'd be Celtic Guardian. I still remember getting one as a kid and I was happy because it was shiny and from the show lol. Hopefully, my cards are still unharmed in the basement they were left in years ago.
GIVE IT TO US KAIBA!!!
@brendenconner9686 2:04
Do not forget Jesus Christ is our savior and read bible verse bro it's ok to everything in this world 🙏🙏😇
❤bro❤
@@gilbertalmirez9442 Kaiba is the second coming of christ
@@Bundy663 Don't be joking around like that about my PAST LIFE Father Seto Kaiba and My Father in Heaven God Almighty of Israel Yaweh. 🤨🤨🤨
The hype behind the Red Eyes and Dark Magician to then the complete awe of the Blue Eyes. Sheesh man, what an absolute banger
I’m emotional as hell right now seeing these cards. The fact that I held these first editions personally as a kid brings so much joy. Long live the weebs
Couldn't have said it better. Amen to that brother!
Makes it all the more sadder that these things are super expensive now. I went to buy the old starter decks again to have them again and all I could find was unopened Spanish decks for over 500. It's a total downer

Grade them again, the scores will be different lol
RIP
Wow, this by far your greatest video on this channel, loved every minute of it, definitely a roller coaster watching this. I would choose Tri-Horned Dragon as my card to grade.
This video really brought me back to 2011-2012 when I first discovered this channel. The HYPE was over the moon in this video! OH BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would probably get Dark Magician graded. He was just the monster for me ever since I was young. Always has been, always will.
Absolutely insane to see a full set of LOB graded in the same submission, even if a mix of wavy and glossy! Great video. Personally the most nostalgic LOB card for me is red eyes, but for commons, flame manipulator haha
This brings a tear to my eye, the pure and utter nostalgia. I love this game. And this channel ❤
Wow is all I can say at the end truthfully, going from extremely excited to extremely calm and collective at the end. I probably would of lost my mind but this was incredible honestly.
As for the 2 cards that didn't get graded I noticed instantly with the fusion card, if you saw the attack/defense print compared to the other cards you can easily tell it was different. The spell card my only guess would of been the text on the top is all I could make from it.
Damn bro you had me full body nostalgia mode hitting that 10 dark magician and kinda tearing up.... Bro you always bring back those memories
I think the flame swordsman is my all time favorite to get graded. Remember watching the TV show and seeing Joey summon him.
Bro I watched this entire thing, thank you so much for uploading!! It was an absolute joy to watch and I could feel the emotion throughout the whole video! Congratulations on the grades! Absolute BANGERS in here! The fact you managed to submit every card from the set is nothing short of impressive. You should all be so proud of yourselves!

Cross grade to psa. I guess paying to have a more harsh grading company such as cgc will help gauge which ones could get 10s at psa. Def more value
I would want Exodia graded. He is such a nostalgic card set for me. I remember watching the show when I was kid and was completely blown away by how cool he was.
This video made me realize I need an AED near me when I watch graded returns. The nostalgia was unbelievable. Epic returns. Congratulations!
The card I would want to grade from LOB would be Tri-Horned Dragon. One of my favorite OG cards and honestly, I like it over Blue Eyes.
man this was insane, I entered the video with no expectation and by the end I was having goosebumps and almost jumping of happiness for you. congrats!
Man, that Dragoness hurts so much, worst part is that at first glance it looks good, but you can see the details once you inpect the rest.
But still, what a mission to accomplish and succeed with the rest of LOB, literal legends all across the board

You’ve come along way SU! You’re lucky, now!
Incredible. Loved coming along for the ride. A truly awesome experience that must have been to go through all of those. Brings me back to when I was 11 years old.
so many emotions, everything that has happened to you roman you honestly deserve nothing but the best congrats on your grades man
Iconic, nostalgic and it couldn't be in any better hands.
Happy for SimplyUnlucky to hit multiple jackpots on the most important ones, these cards represent the rise of card game era. Brings memories.
Felt like a classic Simply Unlucky video. Genuinely missed this
This is Simply’s Magnum Opus. Pièce de résistance. Master of Class. A career video. The greatest showing of Yu-Gi-Oh! in the history of the internet.
Really cool/nostalgic video! The card I would want graded the most would be Flame Swordsman. Loved the look of it in the anime and personally my favourite artwork of the set.
This is amazing🤩 honestly if I could grade any 1st Ed LOB it would either be Exodia the forbidden one or Red-eyes. Both have always been a childhood favorite.
Even though I didn't grew up with these cards back then, this is one of the most CLASSIC Yu-Gi-Oh! videos I've ever seen! 👌🏽
Very interesting, cool and INSANE to see these very first collection of cards from the TCG graded like this from CGC.
Thank you for creating and sharing this with us Simply Squad Team! 👍🏽I think I would like Celtic Guardian to be slabbed and graded in my collection! He reminds me of Link from Legend of Zelda, which is one my favorite gaming franchises to play.
(Btw whenever you Simply Roman, got HYPED from your first time reactions, I got HYPED too. LOL.😆It was fun though!)
There was no Yugitubing before Simplyunlucky. This man is the founding father.
Red-Eyes has always been one of my favorite DM monsters and always thought it's so underrated in the anmie or real card game
Who would have thought growing up when I was asked what I wanted to be, the answer would be a guy opening a box full of Legend of Blue Eyes slabs.
Curse of the Dragon was my personal favorite.
Red eyes for sure, something about Joey's monster always captured me as a kid
I actually don’t think that many people care if their card is in that good of condition
for an hour we got the old simply unlucky back that brought me back to yugioh i missed his videos like this just epic .
00:11 i imagine Kazuki tahakashi like yami yugi...he is no longer exist but his soul still intact with the card... DUEL!!!!
If I could only slab 1 card from LOB, I'd choose Red-Eyes B. Dragon. I think it encompasses the set really well. It's a simple, nostalgic, vanilla monster card that uses the original anime art. My 2nd choice would be Monster Reborn 💎
What a blessing to be able to do something this amazing on your channel.
Thank you for sharing this awesome experience with us my bro I really loved the nostalgic memories
This is grade 10 perfection from Simply Unlucky. Loved watching this.
if i could get 1 card graded card from LOB it would have to be the exodia head it was one of the first holos i pulled from that set back in the day in my 1st ever booster box i ever bought back in the day. that head of exodia is also a great card art as well.
Weren't they all wavy ?
Tyler the Great Warrior was only a 7 grade and got 311,211$ somehow. Pretty insane.
Thanks!
The fact now that most of the cards that are CGC 9.5 are now Gem mint 10 if you get these in the new reholders is insane!!!
EPIC! CRAZY! AMAZING! What A Video! If I Had To Pick Just One Card To Grade From LOB It Would Have To Be Dark Magician! It Was Yugi's Main Go To Monster. Also The Evolution Of This Card Through The Anime And The Connection It Had With Yugi/Atem Was Storytelling At It's Best.
i remeber when i was a kid and yugioh came out. i managed to get 3 raigekis, 3 blue eyes. kept it all in my pocket with rubber bands in case i ever needed to duel on the streets!
Dark Magician! Always been my favorite card. But actually the SYE was always the one that I remember most from the Anime.
As typical as it may be, I think I would have the Blue Eyes White Dragon graded. That was the card of my childhood. So much nostalgia.
Ohhh SNAP! One of the most INSANE videos ever made. The reaction to Dark Magician was crazy!
How did i miss this! What an incredible video! Dark Magician girl was my favorite haha. Not part of the set but should have been
Some people dislike the prices on screen and all, but, if this video isn't proof of just how much he loves yu-gi-oh, I don't know what is. Congrats brother!
This was ridiculous... absolutely incredible.
It’s cool that they organized them all alphabetically for you
Honestly I would say Raigeki for me. It was one of the staples in the game for the longest. To have a graded one would be so cool and I need to pick one up one day.
I had a Skull Knight that looked like that Dragoness. The red/orange back, the blurry Yu-Gi-Oh logo on the corner, the ink on the ATK/DEF was off. I pulled my Skull Knight out of a quarter machine.

This was actually so insane!
Oh man, I am super excited to watch this and see what everything gets, wow. For me personally, I would want to grade a 1st edition Swords of Revealing Light and/or Monster Reborn as both of those are my absolute favorite and most nostalgic from the set. I love Blue Eyes of course and it’s obviously super valuable but SDK is my favorite printing of Blue Eyes and Dark Magician is my favorite monster but especially the SDY. I hope you get some absolutely amazing grades, you definitely deserve it for putting this together for all of us, thank you and good luck.
So much nostalgia watching this video
The questionable authenticity slab would be sick af lol
Simply Unlucky I’ve always rooted for you man, happy to see the top 4 receive such good ratings! Keep up the great content, KAIBAAAAAA!!
the Panther Warrior is the most nostalgic card for me ..
As someone that still has a decent amount of cards like these from childhood this makes me happy, all 5 of my 1st ed lob blue eyes would get a 1 if i was lucky! wish i took better care of my cards, they still look sick in my binder!
Been watching your videos since I was a kid. Congrats on this video, brought tears to my eyes

What a set!! Obviously if I could own 1 it would be blue eyes. But apart from the obvious, flame swordsman would be my other pic. Just love the art
Reaper of the cards would be my favorite to have a perfect 10 on, their dusty old bones but be in pristine condition in card form...
I would pick Man Eater Bug. My brother and I constantly came up with our own ruleset since the TV show didn't always match up with the cards, and we would argue/abuse flip effect monsters, arguing about whether you can use a trap card against a flip effect and yada yada yada, Man Eater Bug became the most sought after card in our collection, and placing any monster in face down defense position was an instant argument waiting to happen.

I grow up with such a great collection and it hurts me to this day knowing I dont have any of the cards any more. My favorite was Man eater bug. I don tknow why but I loved having him for duels.
def a GOAT video for this channel- this was just wonderful to watch
What an amazing video, my jaw hit the floor when you turned that Dark magician over!
I want a PSA 10 Exodia head with a voice recording of you shouting "Exodia obliterate!"
This is absolutely monumental. Best set ever in many people’s opinion. Bravo simply ! 🔥
Flame Swordsman was one of my favourites back in the day from this set! One of my first rare cards ever wish I never lost it. 😢
Would love a graded Celtic Guardian one of my favorite cards of all time
Spirit of the harp is a great 10. One of my favorite cards when I went all out defense. Beautiful.
Flame Swordsman, basically my father figure.
Gonna have to go with Flame Swordsman💯 it's so nostalgic from my childhood when I first got my hands on Starter Deck Joey🔥🔥 Awesome reveal bro!
Awesome video!! Keep up the great work. Growing up I always prized my Blue Eyes White Dragon, that’s what I would get graded. Till this day my favorite card!!
Such an awesome video. No one makes you feel the passion and nostalgia like simply unlucky. By FAR my favorite yugituber. That wavy red eyes tho 😮 my stars!
A big THANK YOU for your content and passion SimplyUnlucky! Been a follower for years and to see you accomplish these feats it is indeed inspirational. OH BABY!
That Dark Magician was Magical! Congrats !!!
Green Phantom King is another one of my favorites, love that art work
Never had the pleasure to enjoy YuGiOh as a kid
Amazing stuff as always! Best part of these videos is the trip I take down memory lane of simpler times.
Red-eyes black dragon my hands down favorite! I've walked the Wheeler way of dueling!
Red eyes black dragon. I pulled it out of a pack from target when I was a teen it was the only rare card of that caliber I ever pulled myself. Great vid SU
Very nice, been waiting for
Someone to do a whole set
Swords of Revealing Light. It saved me so many times back in the day.
This is hype! One of the best videos on youtube. I was cheering to see you pull more 10s. I want gaia the fierce knight
The price counters for those last couple of cards just went berzerk.
The Dark Magician being a 10 and the Blue Eye's White Dragon being a 9.5 is funny lol.
Man-Eater Bug 1st Edition idk why, but that was always my favorite, maybe Pot of Greed, but I don’t even know what it does.
That red eyes is beautiful. Congrats on the big 3!
I remember back in the day when this set first came out me and my mum went through the supermarket (globus in germany) as a 7 years old i was sitting in the shopping cart while my mum drove me around
After I've seen this pack for the first time of my life I wanted a pack so bad .. and of course my super loving mum bought me a pack of Legend of Blue Eyes White Dragon .. and i pulled that RAIGEKI out of my first pack ever OH BABY!
My mom is in a coma since almost half a year right now ..
I LOVE YOU MAMA ❤
The anxiety… Jeesh. When the Left Arm score flashed I started to fear the absolute worst for the big 3. 😬
Thank you Simply, we got to see you get richer, I love getting richer vicariously
If I were to slab one card from LOB I think it'd be Celtic Guardian. I still remember getting one as a kid and I was happy because it was shiny and from the show lol. Hopefully, my cards are still unharmed in the basement they were left in years ago.
Celtic Guardian would be hands down my 1 pick.. an all time classic and favorite of mine when I was a kid
