[[Konami]] substituted cards in the ''Starter Box'' between its theatrical and official releases. Those who purchased the ''Starter Box'' at screenings of ''Yu-Gi-Oh! The Movie'' received "[[Aqua Madoor]]", "[[Trial of Nightmare]]", "[[The 13th Grave]]", "[[Dark King of the Abyss]]", and "[[Turtle Tiger]]", while in the official release version these cards were replaced by "[[Genin]]", "[[Kageningen]]", "[[Rock Ogre Grotto 2|Rock Ogre Grotto #2]]", "[[King Fog]]", and "[[Spiked Snail]]".

Like other cards printed early on in the game, the cards in ''Starter Box'' have no printed set numbers, and lack the holographic [[Eye of Anubis]] in the lower right-hand corner of each card.
  
Sometime after the introduction of the [[Official Guide Starter Book]], the Starter Box was reprinted as Starter Box Version 2. The only major difference was the introduction of the "Official Rulebook, 2nd Edition" which explains [[Effect Monster]]s, [[Ritual Monster]]s, and the newly-introduced ''[[Expert Rules]]''.

Trading Card Game]]''; none of those 13 have ever been re-released in the Japanese ''OCG'' after [[Series 1]].
