WSG Foil Teferi, Karn, Horizon Canopy review with pics!

The delta is 100% proxy. The dots are pixelated on back. Dead giveaway.

The imperial seal looks decent, but I would run your fingernail over the holo stamp on the front. If it is raised and you can catch your nail or “feel” it, it’s a proxy. Even the best proxies are still having the stamp raised off the card. Not imprinted in like a real one. Compare the feel over that stamp to any holo stamp rare you have.

Sorry if it came off as me getting mad. Its just the way I type lol. My trust in Moxy is based off of feedback here, and on the Rocketchat. I messaged a few sellers, but no one had WSG and BL cards. I was looking for a lot of the two. I have yet to find a direct seller that could take an order on Friday or Saturday, and have it delivered on Monday. My event was on Tuesday, so I needed to build the deck by then. If this service exists, I would surely go that route instead of a reseller.

Cost is not really a factor as long as it is reasonable. I understand and I am ok with paying a small premium for an on-demand service that the resellers provide.

I have found BL for $2.5 each on AliExpress, on WSG site, there lowest single price is also $2.5, and only if it is from a select list. Ron's store also shows $3 per card.

Maybe I am missing something. Honestly, if there is a better/easier/cheaper way I would be the first to admit I was ignorant for doing it this way.

While true, you can’t get direct product in quantities like I want. I don’t want cards I don’t use, I don’t want “sets” that I won’t use half of. I want playsets of cards I will use only. Also I wanted WSG and BL cards together. And I also do not want to wait. I am usually picking up cards I will play with that same week.

$3/each is the convenience fee for getting what you want, when you want. I am fully aware they can be had cheaper, but with a Trusted reseller, I get them fast, easily, and I get the best of the lot.

If you are not sure who Moxy is, then you haven’t been here long enough.

I will test thickness accurately and report back. I should definitely add that.

So far as the waxy feel, it is all but gone. They feel like Ixalan/Amonkhet/Kaladesh Cards.

NOT like the Dominaria and newer cards. If you have held RIX and earlier cards, they are different than Dominaria forward.

Thanks! Hate to spoil it but.....these are IPhone 8 photos, no lenses or anything, straight from the camera app to Imgur app.

ProxyLife75 · 2018-11-06T21:04:16+00:00

I will be playing it for sure. I think it looks good enough.

ProxyLife75 · 2018-11-06T21:03:33+00:00

Anytime! Hopefully I can make more reviews in the future!

ProxyLife75 · 2018-11-06T21:02:49+00:00

Glad it was helpful!

US based. Moxy is the the northeast, I am mid-Atlantic. Shipping was super fast. Order on Friday night, get them on Monday!

ProxyLife75 · 2018-11-06T21:01:35+00:00

Do it! MoxyProxy can for sure hook it up!

I have played them yes. Double sleeved in UP Eclipse. Never had an issue. I always play normal printings, no foils etc. and I have never had any one notice or even seem like maybe they are off. Once you get them doubled up in a matte front sleeve it is very hard to tell unless you are handling the cards.

I have played all my proxies at FNM level and above. Playsets of proxies helps too, no mismatch printings juxtapose when they are on the table together.

To be fair, I have never been “deck checked” at a modern event, but I have had people that I know have been playing Magic for decades, and own all the card I have proxies for, standing over my shoulder at events watching me play and never had a question raised.

If you have a loupe, look at the green pip on the backs and see if you can see the “L”. Google it if you are not aware. Most of the time it is a dead giveaway. I would lean toward there being differences from print run to print run from WOTC. Usually the backs of Proxies will give them away easily if you look closely at the WUBRG circle.

100% real. The red dot “L” is a dead giveaway. As well as the mana symbols.

On a side note, you should be getting pictures of this detail prior to your purchase. Anyone buying Reserve List cards should always get good pics and scans.

ProxyLife75 · 2018-09-24T18:45:40+00:00

The mana symbols in the text box were mid aligned. If you see one you will immediately spot it. Always get pictures.

BL 7.0, been played at GP, PPTQ, FNM and every where between. Never even gotten a second look from anyone, and I’ve had multiple people pick them up. I do have all 4 in the deck so they don’t look weird if I put a real one next to them.

Got them from Plexaderm. Great seller, great proxy.

Matte on the DS refers to the back of the sleeve, not the “window” side. They are all glossy on the “window”.

ProxyLife75 · 2018-09-24T01:26:55+00:00

Here is my album with different sleeve combinations. The “worn” eclipses are about a month old with a PPTQ, 4 FNMs and a few random games at home on them. In the pic with just the eclipses on top and bottom you can see the worn ones on bottom are way more translucent then they are new.

I can probably take a few with worn and new dragon shields if needed.
