Ultra PRO Releasing Premium Togepi Card Sleeves Under Brand New “APEX” Line; Deck Box Also Releasing!
Ultra PRO will be releasing Togepi card sleeves under their brand new “APEX” line, which debuted earlier this year for Magic the Gathering. The company will also be releasing a Togepi Alcove Flip Deck Box alongside the sleeves.
Their APEX line features premium sleeves that cost between $19.99 and $21.99. They are formulated to allow easier shuffling. They feature a textured back, a clear gloss front, and enhanced seal strength. Each box comes with 105 sleeves.
Ultra PRO provided details on the new line in a January press release:
Ultra PRO’s new APEX® Deck Protector® sleeves have been in development for two years. The fully opaque sleeves offer a top-notch shuffle experience and are made to perform and last. The APEX® brand features vibrant designs on a textured material and can withstand the rigors of repeated play.
“This is a leap forward in the evolution of card sleeves,” says Justin Cole, Director of Business Development – Accessories. “Everyone understands that the main purpose of card sleeves is to protect their cards, but the texture and the glide shuffle feel of our APEX formula really brings the product to the next level. We offered a ‘sneak peek’ of the line at MagicCon: Las Vegas, and the sleeves sold out the first day! Nine out of 10 people who demoed the sleeves made a purchase.”
As usual no release date or MSRP is known yet. However, these will likely release in Q3.
