Chinese 4th edition BB Shanodin Dryads
Ok, I just finished sorting 10 starter boxes worth of Chinese 4th edition BB Starters.
I didn't get ONE..SINGLE..Shanodin Dryad. I find that the odds of this occuring by chance are, uh, basically zero.
So either 1) they don't exist in Chinese 4th edition BB OR (more likely) 2) the starters are screwed up and there are no Dryads in just them.
Anyone know?

Re: Chinese 4th edition BB Shanodin Dryads
Possible the art was too suggestive for the Chinese? It seems that 1995 Â would be well before they created alternate ("cleaner") art for them.

Re: Chinese 4th edition BB Shanodin Dryads
The exact content of the T-Chinese 4th Edition set is still unknown to me. Rumor has it, though, that quite a few cards have been left out.

Re: Chinese 4th edition BB Shanodin Dryads
Well, I will check if any other cards are missing.
And yes, 10 as in 10 boxes of starters, not starters.

Will you please checked for me if there's a Fire Elemental
in your cards.Thanks.
Re: Chinese 4th edition BB Shanodin Dryads
In 1995 T-Chinese MTG is not intended to be sold in mainland china, but only Taiwan and Hong Kong, so I don't think they're left out. Though it's very difficult to find 4E BB even in Hong Kong now...
Look at my Ebay auctions!

Well, well, well.Hi Gryfalia.
Will you please checked for me if there's a Fire Elemental
in your cards.Thanks.
My cards go from 'Eternal Warrior' to 'Fireball'.
No Fire Elemental either.
It's an almost nekkid chick thing maybe..hmm.

Re: Chinese 4th edition BB Shanodin Dryads
Gryf,
I'd be really interested to know what else is missing if you were to go through and check everything. There are definitely more cards that would be considered "objectionable". I bet they just pulled the cards from 4th because there was no time to get new art. Here are a few to spot check:
Abomination (imagery)
Animate Dead (skeletons)
Black Mana Battery (skull)
...
Drudge Skeletons (skeleton)
...
Gaseous Form (almost nekkid)
...
Primal Clay (almost nekkid)
...
Serra Angel (cleavage)
...
Wall of Spears (skeleton)
...

Thanks,that confirmed a research I was doing.One thing is sure the Fire Elemental is definately not in the 4Th Edition Chinese :)

Re: Chinese 4th edition BB Shanodin Dryads
I know I remember the ones I mention above, but I will bug the wife to help me out (reading the 4th ed list from wizards while I check the cards) and we'll see what is missing. It is possible that in 300 rares I might miss one (actually, somewhat likely), but it's virtually impossible that I will be missing uncommons or commons.Gryf,

PS - if we end up finding more of these cards, perhaps we will need a special page for 'missing cards'...like Portguese ante cards and the like... (mostly so people don't waste their time looking for them). I DO know that there are Trad Chinese 7th edition dryads, BTW.
