Yu-Gi-Oh Goes Viral Thanks to One Welder’s Puzzle Replica

Over the decades, the anime industry has put out a ton of top series, and some shows have stood the test of times. From Pokemon to Dragon Ball and Sailor Moon, plenty of anime series from decades past are thriving today. Of course, Yu-Gi-Oh is high on that list thanks to its Duel Monsters. And now, one fan is going viral after they managed to craft Yugi’s Millennium Puzzle IRL.

The whole thing came together online thanks to TK Weld. The TikTok page is all about welding, and its creators have made some interesting replicas with the craft. So of course, anime fans all did a double take when TK Weld created the perfect Millennium Puzzle replica.

From its chain to its color and shine, this Millennium Puzzle replica is the real deal. At this point, it would not be surprising if this replica held the soul of Pharaoh Atam. Lowkey, we’d suggest anyone trying on this pendant to be careful.

As you can imagine, Yu-Gi-Oh fans are obsessed with this high-quality replica, but something like this takes time to make. If you want your own version of the Millennium Puzzle, a slew of factory replicas have been released over the years. Not long ago, Bandai Hobby released its own puzzle gear that you can assemble yourself for about $50 USD.
