Gary's Giveaway Yugioh Foil Sheet Results/Prototypes/Uses

Lol…
I wasn’t at Woodstock seeing as it was on the opposite coast (I was in California and Woodstock was in New York) but I did see the Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl in 1965 and spent a weekend at the Monterey Pop Festival around 1967. I actually got a slap on the arm from Janis Joplin and was close to the stage when Jimi Hendricks went on:)

Sorry OP for going off topic :rofl:

@garyis2000

I thought I’d struck a cord with you old timer!

Sounds like a great era to experience. :blush:
Pretty awesome someone here on the forum has been through that.

Hey hey, my badge idea! Surely that entitles me to a discount of $30000 off your store? Thanks!

That’s right brother. I loved the idea and now it’s in the works. I’ll come back and post pictures of the finished product soon:)

It was especially great cause I was brought up in the heart of Hollywood and had a mom with connections in show business.
So many great stories but, alas, not all was fine with the world. Like all generations we had our serious problems,

If you could choose between the below two designs which would it be?

Keep in mind when you tilt either you get all the designs in vibrant colors.

There’s top to bottom and side to side sections on the master sheet. You can either cut it utilizing the intersected lines (kinda like a “+” sign) or cut it so you avoid it and get no sections showing.

Look at the two pics below and which would appeal to you mst. Again, the pics aren’t great and don’t show everything but keeps mind both are very pretty when tilted.

Its hard to tell what is going on with that top one. I would say the bottom one IMO.

Also say the bottom one, looks nicer at first glance.

I still think a toploader with a 1/4" band across the top would be a must have for anyone wanting to show a special Yugioh card.

I think alot of people on instagram would really love to buy several big custom place mats of these so they could post all there cards with that gold shit on the backround imo. It would look awesome.

Not sure what you mean.
Just put a square of the EOA hologram inside a toploader? Front and back so two pieces? What’s the strip idea?

This stuff is so fine you can’t work with it. Are you thinking to glue it down on some kind of material cause that would only wrinkle or tear. The foil needs to be taut just to see the hologram work.
Am I envisioning your idea wrong?

Yeah thats what I mean, it need to even just become a big square piece of it, without it wrinkling ect… if there is a way it would be cool, but i guess not? :confused:

Because you see on instagram, people post the cards, and they like to put them on backrounds. The person who posts premium psa 10’s on a gold back round like that would be pretty darn happy, and it would look awesome. Thats what Id do anyway.

Do you have a link to a background that you’re talking about?
I guess if you put a sheet between two crystal clear pieces of acrylic or something like that and fastened it together so it looked like a flat tray it might look nice?

In the area where they say Rookie Card, have a 1/4" band bonded to the toploader that goes side to side.

Oh I see. Thanks.

hmmms well what people do is they just get like a poster for pokemon and then chuck there card on it and take the photob… So it would be really cool to have this as a backround for yu gi oh is the things… However I think its essential that the piece doesnt get damaged, so it will definitely need to be reinforced some how. 2 pieces of acrylic sounds good, and it will make it real nice… IT WOULD HAVE TO BE TRIAL IN THE ERRORS!

That would be expensive errors on irreplaceable product:(

Hey @garyis2000 have you considered speaking with someone who deals with gold leaf? That stuff is incredibly thin, so users of that may be able to assist on what adhesives work.

Interesting. I will do some searches.

the button maker finally figured out how to do them after many tries and they look good now. It was tough, and he’s truly a master, but even he was going nuts with this project. I was lucky his main factory was here in Vegas and I was able to work closely with him and nut continue to.
