This month's issue of KeroKero Ace magazine went out overnight, unveiling many of the new units that will be coming out of VG-BT12: Binding Force of the Black Rings in two weeks. The issue's focus is towards the new Link Joker units of BT12, as well as the new Silver Thorn subgroup that will be supporting Luquier's Reverse crossride.
While many fighters have been concerned over Demon World Marquis Amon receiving a crossride in his new Demon God Marquis Amon Reverse form, despite the original Amon currently being out of print along with BT03 in Japan, and not being listed among the set's two reprints, Bushiroad has faced these concerns by revealing that they will be reprinting Amon as an Special Parallel-exclusive card in BT12.
