Virtual Shields (Original)

Note: Virtual Original era entry for early Players Committee Defensive Shields / Virtual Shields packaging (pre–September 2009 Block reorg). For Block-era / Legacy packaging of the shield pool see Virtual Shields (also Virtual Shields (Legacy)). No dedicated Original-era Defensive Shields slip PDF has been located on this wiki yet (Alpha1: NOT FOUND); title art reuses the Legacy crop.

Virtual Shields (Original) covers Defensive Shields in the numbered Virtual Sets era. Secondary chronologies place a Defensive Shields / Virtual Shields package between Virtual Sets 11 and 12 (~2006–07). Primary PDF brackets: after VS11 official text 4 December 2006 and before VS12 official text 9 January 2007 (exact Original shields PDF / news day still unknown).

Naming: Some fan lists use a "Premium Set 1" label for this package. That wording is a historical / secondary label on this wiki — it is not repeated as a proven PDF banner title here. Prefer Defensive Shields / Virtual Shields packaging eras until a primary slip PDF banner is cited.

Original Shields PDF status: dedicated Original-era Defensive Shields VirtualCards slip PDF NOT FOUND (Alpha1). Do not confuse later master lists or Decipher V-slips with an Original Premium slip (see Sources).

Card list for the Legacy packaging scan set lives on Virtual Shields. This Original hub does not invent a second card list or card text.
