Announcement is up!
First up, The Walking Dead Season 2 Trading Cards. The follow-up to the popular first set of trading cards will be released on December 11th, just in time for the holiday season. Mark your calendars!

So the Holden autograph ratio is about 1:1.5 cases. So this means about 400 autographs correct? (7,404 boxes/12 per case = 617 cases / 1.5)
Then they have Season 1's autographs. But they state that if you wanted a specific one it means the ratio would be 1:3 cases. So by my math this would mean 200 Season 1, and 200 Season 2. Since Season 1 had 2 versions would this then mean:
Season 1 A3: 100 Season 1 A4: 100 Season 2 A13: 200
Does this make sense? Does anyone know what some of the numbers signed for other Season 1 participants was? If the addition of Season 1 makes her the hardest for Season 2, is it safe to assume most signed 100+ for Season 2?

I would assume that there would be roughly 200ea of the two different season 1 autos and her season 2 ones would be a seperate issue.

Hmmm...I don't see that. She (Miranda) clearly states that her auto is 1:1.5 cases (meaning if you wanted any one of the three). So that means there are 400 TOTAL of her autographs (between Season 1 and Season 2).

Yes, she does state that they are 1:1.5 cases with odds of getting either particular one 1:3 cases. In addition, she was directly addressing the bonus season 1 cards.

Those are awesome, Kyle!!! Would love to find one of those.
Beautiful cards! I really like the walker herd (5th row down, middle card) with it's highlights and shadows!

Here's a few of my cards. This was the hardest yet most rewarding set I've worked on. I learned a lot doing this set. The first one is a self-portrait of me as a walker from the barn massacre scene!
A few of the scans have lines horizontally near the top, that's just the UltraPro 9-card sleeves I had them in, the line's not on the actual card.This message has been edited. Last edited by: SHouseman,

Great sketches guys! Looks like I'll have to admire them from afar as I can only secure 2 boxes.

Don't give up hope. I pulled a great sketch from season one, with only having two boxes.

There are a lot of scans on this forum of various artists' sketch cards for the set (gathered from here, Facebook, Scoundrel, etc). It's a card-selling business website, so if this is improper, you can delete this post. Hopefully it's okay as it's a forum:
