Well, not to sound rude or anything like that, but, what I think he's saying is...don't worry about it until it happens. If you get your card, hey, that's great! If you don't, THEN you can complain!

Submitted by VitaminAYYY on Sun, 07/08/2012 - 22:13

i must sign up for the annual membership correct? or can i do it the other way? just wondering

Submitted by John Bae on Mon, 07/09/2012 - 14:00

You must sign up for the yearly membership, and it has to be soon. The deadline's looming!

im still getting no response from sjalpha customer service regarding the fact that i have not recieved number 16 shockmaster, i sent 3 emails explaining everything including how i switched to alpha back in march, got an email saying that subscription to alpha was extended to 03/07/2014, all info regarding my mailing address is correct so im not sure what else to do here emails dont seem to be working since ive gotten no response.

Submitted by Dragonmight on Tue, 07/10/2012 - 07:13

I cant get a response from sjalpha as will, for some reason it seem no one can get contact with them let alone a answer for as for why I and many others has not recieved Number 16 Shockmaster. And now they talking about release The next card. I mean come...on.some of us have not recieved N :16 Shockmaster. At least please make sore everybody that sign up on time to get there copy of Shockmaster first before you release the next card..

Submitted by John Bae on Tue, 07/17/2012 - 16:52

You should get SHOCK MASTER fairly soon. In fact, it might be shipped together with SLIFER.

When you wrote in to sjalpha@viz.com, did you note your VIZmanga.com account username? Also, did you make sure to input your mailing address in your profile setting?

Submitted by keeblaydmastr on Tue, 07/10/2012 - 07:29

Seriously what do we have to do? It's a serious inconvenience that we as the subscribers have to pay and then pursue SJA just to receive what we should've gotten a long time ago. I mean, I'm very patient, so this is now annoying. But if I were to only get one card, I guess as long as they can deliver Slifer, I'll be a happy camper.

Submitted by John Bae on Tue, 07/10/2012 - 10:13

For those of you who have written in to the customer service, chances are we have you down on file as needing the card. We will send out another shipment of cards to those who were missing it. At the LATEST, expect it by the end of the month (or sooner). It could also get packaged together with your SLIFER card as well.

Submitted by omaralvarez on Tue, 07/10/2012 - 10:46

i signed up for this the day after i got my letter in the mail and i still havent gotten my shock master and im starting to get impatient even though im a very patient person

Submitted by John Bae on Tue, 07/10/2012 - 11:18

Did you write in to customer service? Do so quickly at sjalpha@viz.com. We're currently putting together a list to send out cards to. Chances are, if you're on that list, you should receive it, at the latest, by the end of the month.

Submitted by bseager678 on Thu, 07/12/2012 - 08:06

I signed upon July 11th, will I still get Slifer? I have gotten no reply from customer service about it yet

Submitted by John Bae on Tue, 07/17/2012 - 16:52

You should get SLIFER. Just make sure that you have inputted your mailing address on your VIZmanga.com account profile.

Submitted by jhone89 on Wed, 07/11/2012 - 06:11

Well....it's only a matter of time now until we get Slifer!

I just signed up today July 11th for the annual membership, will I still get Slifer? If I do, any idea when it will ship out?

Submitted by raziel92 on Thu, 07/12/2012 - 11:26

Do we still get the card if we signed up just yesterday?

Submitted by kamkill on Thu, 07/12/2012 - 16:21

i believe the deadline was the 10th for slifer

Submitted by kamkill on Thu, 07/12/2012 - 16:30

and now it's saying the 11th so i believe you will

Submitted by divinegods on Thu, 07/12/2012 - 15:41

Do you now have an exact date when Slifer the Sky Dragon will be arriving?

Submitted by SliferTheCollector on Thu, 07/12/2012 - 21:27

Well, now that Slifer is over for ordering, now what is the next promo to order?

Submitted by spiritking on Thu, 07/12/2012 - 21:29

I know the memo on top reads July 11th, but is it still possible to sign up for a Alpha Subscription and still get this wonderful peice of cardboard?!?! I needs one bads !! And I just found out about this today D:

Submitted by duelist2500 on Fri, 07/13/2012 - 03:38

i signed up today and the due date says the 11th but it still says you get the card if you sign up so what is true

Submitted by shresthajason on Fri, 07/13/2012 - 07:14

I'm not exactly sure but I'm going to subscribe today afternoon so hopefully I get it. I know what you mean because if you go to Sign-Up! it says you can still get "Slifer the Sky Dragon" but if you go to the link that says Promo Cards, you'll see that the deadline for "Slifer" is the 11th.

Submitted by xadavia on Sat, 07/14/2012 - 12:30

Helo,
I have a question, at the end of the month i will no longer be at my place of residence any longer and i am afraid that i will be out before slifer arrives in my mail. if I am not able to change my mailing address before it arrives what can i do to still get one? What is late July?

Submitted by Yugiohking on Sat, 07/14/2012 - 18:27

Did anyone get Slifer in the mail yet? Please respond if anyone has.

Submitted by manny30 on Sun, 07/15/2012 - 13:51

Submitted by gears543 on Sun, 07/15/2012 - 19:13

same im still waiting for slifer

Submitted by WorthlessOtaku on Mon, 07/16/2012 - 18:45

Chances are they went to The San Diego Comic Con and got theirs already. If you sign up for Shonen Jump Alpha at comic con you get Slifer right there on the spot. I got mine there.

Submitted by John Bae on Tue, 07/17/2012 - 16:38

That is correct. SLIFER was a card being offered as a promotional gift for becoming an annual member at San Diego Comic-Con.

Submitted by DAS48 on Tue, 07/17/2012 - 22:47

Now I really wish I could have gone to SDCC!

Submitted by hass3000 on Mon, 07/16/2012 - 17:36

please tell me how long left

Submitted by WorthlessOtaku on Mon, 07/16/2012 - 18:42

Hey guys quick question, I signed up for Shonen Jump Alpha at SDCC 2012, and i recieved my Slifer the Skydragon right on the spot, however the guy doing this told me that I would soon recieve an e-mail confirmation, telling me how to set up my adress to recieve future Yu-Gi-Oh cards and w/e but I havent gotten it yet. Is there anyway I can contact them to let them know this? becuase my account has been charged w/ an annual subscription but i havent recieved the email. Please help!

Submitted by John Bae on Tue, 07/17/2012 - 16:54

That was probably me. Write to sjalpha@viz.com pronto. If there was a mistake when you entered your email address, then of course the confirmation email would not have gone through.

When writing the email, please be sure to write the email address you inputted for the account and the day you signed up at the Con.

Submitted by skyisland on Tue, 07/17/2012 - 16:30

i sighed up one the 10th of july, was i too late to receive the Slifer The Sky Dragon card?

Submitted by John Bae on Tue, 07/17/2012 - 16:37

You should get SLIFER. Just make sure that you have your mailing address inputted in your VIZmanga.com account profile. And if you haven't done that yet, do so ASAP.

Submitted by Aoshi5Gin on Tue, 07/17/2012 - 22:59

It says be a member by july 11, 2012 at the very top so anyone who signed up before july 12, 2012 is going to get one.

It's at the top guys just need to read =)

Submitted by WenzBot012 on Wed, 07/18/2012 - 13:24

Failed by 2 days on my part!

Submitted by Davster on Wed, 07/18/2012 - 11:33

Slifer is my second favourite God Card, after Ra.

Submitted by SliferTheCollector on Wed, 07/18/2012 - 16:51

Yeah, Slifer is my favorite God card too, which Is why I really wanna know If I am going to get one. If there was an error for shipping him to me or I've been told I'm not getting one at all, I'd lose it.

I don't know if I should be jealous for those people who are getting Slifer early from SDCC or ebay or be chuckling because people are paying double to quadruple the price we paid for our cards.

Submitted by skyisland on Thu, 07/19/2012 - 11:17

whats sweet about this card is it has all of its effects from the show unlike the other god cards

Submitted by DAS48 on Thu, 07/19/2012 - 23:32

Actually, what everyone seems to be overlooking is that Obelisk is more true to the anime effect than Slifer.

Submitted by divinegods on Sat, 07/21/2012 - 10:39

Is there a date you can give us that tells us when Slifer the Sky Dragon will be sent out, or do you not know that?

Submitted by thejman62 on Sat, 07/21/2012 - 12:10

When you say late july do you mean like July 25 - 31 or July 17 - 24?

Submitted by SliferObeliskRa... on Sat, 07/21/2012 - 19:13

If you have a subscription that runs out July 30 did you need to resubscribe to get slifer?

Submitted by SliferTheCollector on Mon, 07/23/2012 - 20:15

Let's say you didn't have a Playable Slifer and you don't know how to get one. Suddenly at your next Yugioh Tournament, you see someone with a Playable Slifer the Sky Dragon that he or she is using in his or her deck. Would you ask that person to trade that Slifer with you?

The reason I ask this question is because I have bad thoughts that if I had a Playable Slifer in my deck people would be begging to trade my Slifer. I keep having bad thoughts that someone would steal it, fight me for it or take it and say "I'm not letting it go until you trade it with me".

Submitted by Dcowsert on Mon, 07/23/2012 - 22:47

And you're like, "It's better than yours."

Peronally, I wouldn't ask to trade for that guy's Slifer because he's obviously going to refuse. On the offchance that he said "what do you have to trade," I know it'd likely cost an arm and a limb to get it from him. It'd be far easier to wait until I had a way to get it on my own.

Slifer's the bee's knees. If you had it, most duelists would covet it and envy you for having it. That's just part of the game though. If you know people who would actually fight you for it, start carrying bear mace or a knife with you when you walk places (this also protects you from normal muggers and your friendly neighborhood rapist!). If you're concerned that a someone might take it from your room or something, you can put your deck in a zip-lock bag or card case and stick it in your handy backpack.

Also, I wouldn't shove my god card in everyone's face if and when I obtain one. Let your deck do the talking. :)

Submitted by jhone89 on Tue, 07/24/2012 - 09:06

No kidding! Anyone who shoves it in someone's face like, "Look! I have Slifer and you don't! Nah! Nah! Nah! Nah! Nah!" is BEGGING to have it stolen from them! I think as long as you are...a little more humble, you should be fine.

Submitted by SliferTheCollector on Tue, 07/24/2012 - 12:53

I'm not saying I'm rubbing in someone face or anything that may result to envy. I figure it's a rare card and people would want it.

Just like the time I was at a Sneak Peek tournament and my last booster pack had Sacred Beast Raviel, Lord of Phantasms people ran up to me and begged me to trade it, I said no but they wouldn't take no for an answer, so I had to leave early to get away from them. I'm saying that a card like that people would do anything for it, Even some are paying huge prices for the ones on ebay.

I'm not steering you in the wrong direction.

Submitted by jhone89 on Sat, 08/04/2012 - 06:42

Yeah...I have that card myself, and I KNOW what you mean. That is one problem with cards as rare as Slifer and Raviel. They are really powerful, and really hard to come by, and people want them! The funny thing is...I have tons of rare cards because I buy alot of them! I would have to say that my rarest card is a misprinted Des Volstgalph (Or whatever it's name is!) It has 2600 ATK when it SHOULD have 2200! I opened a pack, and there it was! I looked it up on line, and you can imagine the surprise I felt when I saw mine had 400 more ATK then it should! Whenever people see that card, they always want me to trade it to them. I simply tell them that I rarely, if ever, trade cards. They grumble about it a little, but then they stop asking.
