I guess no binder for me, 'cause I'm sure not paying $60+ for one!


When did you order your binder Ted? Didn't hear nothing on my side but did order the binder yesterday.

Back on the 3rd.

Also been told by my supplier that my box of these has been shipped so its looking bright for an arrival before christmas Big Grin


Frown Not fair, like to share where you ordered it from? Wink lol.

My supplier is still saying he should recieve them 3-5 days after release date or maybe before for him? Still not getting my hopes up though, takes long enough for bloody British post to arrive lol.


I got it from dacardworld.com Smile
I got all my family guy boxes and some Harry Potter ones there too Big Grin

I also chose UPS instead of USPS, its alot quicker in my past experience although I do have to pay customs which averages out at 20 euro more than USPS Roll Eyes


Ah i looked at them at first but decided to try and find a UK dealer.

I just didn't want to pay customs so thats why I ordered from UK just to be on the safe side.

I'll check them out for future boxes though. Cheers!

Mr Nonsports has a case break up at youtube. Not the greatest quality video though, and he condensed it to about 5 minutes.

Is he a supplier or just got it early?

Just checked it out, as you said. Not great quality, but it gives an insight.

My box arrived and these are top quality and beautifully designed cards in my opinion Smile

I pulled a Shane Walsh (M5) and Andrea (M8) costume with the Andrea swatch seeming to have dirt running through so im not sure if its a variant.
My auto card was Emma Bell as Amy (A10).

I was delighted with my pulls and I will upload scans this evening Big Grin

Defo gonna have to order from that website! You got them quick, especially at this time of the year.

Sounds like some nice picks, especially the costume cards!

The costume cards look great. I also got a full base set and 6 chase inserts. I was looking at the other Andrea costume cards and none seem to have dirt on it so maybe I got a variant Big Grin

So excited to get mine now!

Just bought more single Dexter cards with a few autos so I've got a few things waiting to come in the post along with The Walking Dead binder and box. Will Royal Mail be kind to me though? fingers crossed.

Just checked ebay, so many of the costume and auto cards on there already! Can't believe how quickly people put them up.

Its really not fair to honest dealers who wait until the release date and cooperate with the manufacturer.

No one should have product besides dealers and distributors and no one should be opening it already showing breaks. I don't know why there is not more control over this. Mad

I agree with you, and I'm not a dealer or distributor. I would love if Cryptozic basically told dealers in the areas the cards are showing up already that they will not be able to order cases on the next set. I know that's a bad business model to follow, but I'd certainly be for it.

Managed to get a binder today from Ed and should have that and a box as a nice birthday gift for myself!

I didn't know these cards were out already. And here I was waiting for it to be released.

My apologies Flag City I'm so sorry I didn't realise, I saw the case break on youtube and with them selling on ebay I thought it was ok.

I never had this problem as living in Ireland I usually receive after the US. Sorry
