2024 GAMA Expo Recap of BCW and Spectrum Products

Thanks to all of the board game and card game store managers and owners that visited the BCW booth at the March 3-7, 2024 GAMA Expo in Louisville. If you own or manage a game store but could not attend the GAMA Expo, below is a recap of the BCW and Spectrum gaming accessories spotlighted by BCW Supplies. Rather than present our full line of gaming products, we focused on new products hitting the market this spring.

Iridian Card Sleeves are premium, tournament quality sleeves. Iridians feature clear, glossy fronts to make sure the art pops. The thick material is super durable to protect your cards from damage. The colored layer has a subtle texture for a supreme shuffle feel. Use Iridians to protect Magic: the Gathering, Pokémon, Disney Lorcana, Dragon Ball Super, One Piece, Digimon, Final Fantasy TCG, Flesh and Blood, and other CCGs.

The BCW 6 Drawer Card Catalog offers a sleek storage solution for large card collections. Made from a durable black plastic, each drawer features slots for movable Card Partitions, and 6 clear Card Partitions are included. Each drawer will hold about 700 loose sports cards or 1150 loose gaming cards, 210 cards in standard toploaders, or 45 cards in 35 pt. magnetics. The front of each drawer holds a card or label to identify the contents. Card Catalogs are stackable and can be connected to neighboring units to build a larger system. If you prefer to use existing shelving, Card Catalogs fit perfectly in an IKEA Kallax or similar systems. Card Catalogs are the ultimate card storage solution for stores or anyone with a large card collection.

The original Spectrum Prism Deck Cases are sized to hold 100 cards. However many card games use a smaller deck size, hence we’re introducing Prism Deck Cases 50 ct. Sized to hold 50 standard double-sleeved or 60 single-sleeved game cards, the Prism 50 ct. cases are perfect for Pokémon, Disney Lorcana, Star Wars Unlimited, Universus, One Piece, Digimon, Dragon Ball Super, Final Fantasy TCG, and others. These boxes hold decks in a horizontal format, making it easy to remove your cards. Prisms squeeze to open and have a friction-fit snap closure. The fit will not allow the case to open accidentally, so cards stay safe during travel. Prisms 50 ct. are designed to fit in BCW Collectible Card Bins. Prisms 50 ct. will initially be available in Crystal Clear and five marble designs.
