Portuguese Second Age Boosters

Post by Gryfalia » Sat Jul 17, 2004 9:08 pm

I am now quite assured that they don't exist...

I have been purchasing boxes of foreign product, including a goodly amount of Portuguese from someone I deal with on Ebay.  I asked if he had any Portuguese Second Age.  Initially he said no, but then he said he found 5 boxes of Second Age 2 player starters.

Gleefully I bought them, thinking that we would find out, for sure, if boosters existed, since it comes with 1 booster as well as the pre-con decks.

They arrived yesterday.  I excitedly opened one of them and what slipped out but a Portuguese Urza's Saga booster!  (instead of the Portal 2 one that should be there).  I would have been very annoyed had it been any other set, but I can't complain about Saga boosters..;-)

The WotC product number for the individual 2-player starter is WOC23044.  The box is WOC23045.

So, unless WotC did this for a VERY weird reason, I can only assume that they flat-out don't exist, and there is no full set of Portuguese Portal 2...

Hi Ken.
So apparentely WOTC made just Demo Booster PO2
and Starters  ??? That will mean that No Full Set and Boosters exist,well I'm amazed but not surprised.
Well,I guess having One Demo Booster Portuguese and
One Starter is a Full Set  ;D Makes my Portal Project much easier  ;)

Well, suppose I could start selling 'complete Portuguese Portal 2 sets' for $12.50..;-)

Of course, I don't know what cards are in the demo booster off the top of my head...don't know if they overlap or not.  But I have lots of lands.

Opened 3 boxes already, 2 left..;-)

Gryphalia: Excellent discovery! Could you please list the exact contents of the 2 Player Starter Game? This would be helpful in order to reveal possible further differences.

I think I bought the last box from the same dealer, and I did so with the express purpose of offering sealed starters to forum members, so don't worry Erloo - if Gryf runs out I'll probably still have a box worth!

Deck B has Golden Bear and Bear Cub?  I'm gonna need those, then.

If you're opening cards for trade, let me know. :)

Yes, it has 'Filhote de Urso' and 'Urso Dourado'.

And the reason I am opening them is to take out the Urza's Saga booster...I still have 2 sealed boxes (24 total 2-player starters) that I haven't opened yet.  I didn't get them to collect them myself, I got them to (mostly) take apart and sell.  Since there is no Portal 2 set per se, the only part of value to me (beyond having a ton of land, raging goblins, volcanic hammers and a few other cards of interest) are the boosters..;-)  But since I knew some people would want to buy some, I didn't open them all.  And I only opened 1 of the actual fixed decks to check the cards.

Comparing the card I have to the english list below (using some creative guessing, but likely correct), the card list would seem to be exactly the same.  Since I've opened 225 or so english version of this, all the pictures seem the same too..;-)

Sometime soon, when I get bored, I will list out the portuguese names..
