Ahhh.... I see, I didn't realise that was the backs of the cards, that's good to know.
I guess they want to keep something a surprise for everyone

Take that Juelle

LOL! I did not realize those were the backs as well.

I can't wait for these next week!

From what I have seen, I can't wait.

Been a long time since I have been this excited about opening packs of cards, even longer still for something that is non-sports.

I wasn't trying to be rude. I hope it didn't across that way.

I just happened to look a little closer after you posted Juelle, and noticed you couldn't see any card fronts (except insets) in the photos.

We all understand how crabby you're getting in your old age

Nope, Just my humor

The Walking Dead Trading Cards: Unboxing

Looks pretty awesome! And great to see they are coming our way soon.

When did "box Opening" become "Unboxing"

About the same time as getting off a plane became deplaning

Can't wait for this release!

I admit I have never heard unboxing used in non-sports. I know the term from computer products....mainly Apple stuff. You see a lot of unboxing photos when new iPhones, iPads, iPods, etc. come out. But it works well for non-sport cards too. It's three less characters then box opening - Maybe you have Twitter to blame!

Just checked Cryptozoic website and noticed the sheriff badge swatch is limited to 16!

Please be in my box? Lol

I think it is a HORRIBLE word and really hope it doesn't come into the hobby

I agree with you hammer. I'm a fan of the good old box break(ing)

I definitely prefer "Box Break" too.
Maybe "Unboxing" is a CCG term? or maybe he just wrote that without thinking, and in the process came up with a new word for opening boxes.

It will be interesting to see if it catches on.

Nope not a CCG term. Just one of our web guys trying to be creative. This particular gent does come from the video game industry so that's most likely where he got it.

Also, just a quick note about our trading card graphic designers. The two who work on our non sport are not ccg graphic designers. They have years of experience designing sport and non sport cards. One thing we do stress as a company is to push the envelope on design. (not just for our cards but everything we produce)

Hopefully you'll enjoy our approach and we always love to hear your feedback.

Thanks!

Scott - no complaints about companies "pushing the envelope" on design all good in my opinion. Just don't "unbox" anything

I am also dying to know if there were any other surprises like the patches or late signers that were added!

Somewhere, someone is getting paid to make up all those savvy and sophisicated new words that butcher the English language. Than Oxford puts them in the dictionary to make the nonsense legitimate.
