Sorry this is kinda far behind but I just read this thread. The comment about the Yuki-ona on the cover of the R/G precon deck is possible, but highly unlikely. In DnD Oriental Adventures, the Yuki-ona is an ice spirit that later get reprinted in Frostburn. Since Wizards of the Coast also make DnD, they will most likely be still to their original adaption of the Yuki-ona, but they might always change it.
again, for all who think the booster pic is A nightmare...... well, it ISN'T..
IT'S A KI-RIN(half horse- half dragon or something like that, in the jepenise myth.....)
[and besides Nightmare is already printed in ninth, so there is no chance they will print one like it before that.... dunno what effacts will the kirin have... hopefully they wiil be more like the dragons]
hey FrostAvatar how did you know i was using that adaption? Yeah i was basing my assumption off of. Cause In DnD she does the ice stuff, so i figure she would just come right over from the book. Then again i've seen some people say something like Yuki-Ona Demon Queen or whatever so maybe she is multicolor. If she is I doubt she is in the deck.
On the demon looking kami for the booster.
The floating heads are definately his power objects. But is he a full demon or just a kami? Hmmmmmm.... Welll Seizan is a demon and you can't really see his 3rd eye.
edit: If Yuki is an ice spirit why wouldn't see be red?

RnD during Time Spiral:
Rosewater: "Color Pie, WTF is that, If I want Black to be able to wrath, counter and have green creatures then I will damnit!"
Random RnD guy: "RED AKORMA! FTW!"
Gleemax: "Rosewater has broken out of my mind control!"
RnD after 2008:
MaRo: Hmm how do we fix the problems of pricing with cards like Tarmogoyf and Thoughtsieze
Random RnD Guy: OO lets make a new RED RARITY SYMBOL!
MARO: OMGWTFBBQ! Thats a great idea, we'll call it Mythic Rarity!
Gleemax: NOT AGAIN! CELEB
I am totally speechless...
The artwork is fantastic! I think Saviors might have the best artwork in the entire Magic History! I can't wait to form a deck around those two dragons!
Quote from Aaron Forsythe on Guildpact: Twenty Questions »
When Guildpact was handed over from design, it also had seven gold rares per guild,... and that the seventh gold rare in each guild was less important to the set than the Nephilim. So each guild is down a rare in this set.

Well we've seen close ups of almost all of those, however I don't recognize the thing with the "white samurai" on it. It's near the booster box. Anyone know what it is?
"Yuki-onna" is a sort of legendary japanese snow-spirit, generally portrayed with white skin and wearing a white kimono. The name means, literally translated, "snow woman". The picture on the red-green precon is almost certainly not a yuki-onna.
The precon box or whatever it is seems like it could be Terashi on the top of it. Or some other "big ball of light weilding kami/person"

For about 100th time: This is 99,9999% Michiko. Unless the yuki-onna have a special delight in dress adorned with Konda's symbols.
