Final holiday giveaway! A box of 2018 Stranger Things Season 1 courtesy of Topps! This will be a joint contest between our NSU Card Talk Forum and our IG page! We will also have a runner up prize from our Stranger Things box break: an orange autograph of Chelsea Talmadge! We will take all the combined entries from both pages and select random winners on Friday, December 21st. So, comment below as to your favorite thing about Stranger Things. Good luck!

The Strangest thing is the inverted picture

Well Winona Ryder is in so that is good enough for me however i feel watching Millie Bobby Brown is like watching a star of the future, i wonder where she will be ten years from now.

Since its set in the early 80s, nobody has all the modern tech and there is a feeling of nostalgia for those of us that actually lived in the 80s.

Not seen it yet but will catch up over the holidays, so the best thing the anticipation

The best thing is reliving my childhood through this show. Of course, there were less monsters in mine...

It’s creepy!

I love the 80s setting. . .

I remember the 80s as a pretty good time so I like this show...

I love the characters. What a great wave of up and coming actors have come from this show.

The 80's are a great period of time to base shows

Love the 80’s vibe...

The design of the creatures/monsters.

I like that the plot takes twists and turns. Each character is strange in there own way,

I've never seen this show so I didn't enter the contest. I'll have to check it out if only to see how it remembers the 80's. Sometimes, people doing a show/movie set in a previous decade don't have a feel for the difference between what was happening early in a decade and what was happening later. Take "X-Men: First Class." It was set in 1962, "Bay of Pigs" time with JFK but some of the women were wearing go-go outfits which was a late 60's-early 70's thing. At least one movie critic brought up anachronisms like that as a flaw in the storytelling but I just thought it was funny.

Yeah, no mobile tech back then. I remember when I was working in a bookstore in the mid-late 80's. My girlfriend tried calling me at the store but the manager didn't like us taking personal calls on the store phone. I had take a break and go out into the mall to use a public phone near a Macy's entrance. It was hard to hear her in that environment - weird acoustics and background noise of people walking and talking nearby with music mixed in.
