Debuting in 1989, the Puppet Master series focuses on anthropomorphic puppets animated by an ancient Egyptian spell and set loose to wreak havoc, equipped with dangerous devices and weapons and out to threaten people, or even to fight against other puppets. The film is considered one of the key cult hits of the home video and rental era of horror. The series consists of 15 films, 11 mainline, one crossover film, a reboot and two spin-offs.

Plus there will be Mini-Box-Foil-Packs- 7 cards and Display Case - 12 Mini-Box-Foil-Packs options.

"Puppet Master is one of the most unique and classic franchises in horror," said Nick Barruccci, Dynamite CEO and Publisher. "We're excited to connect with the diehard fans of the films and deliver something truly special for their collections."

"The Puppet Master series might just be the most important franchise in our vast Full Moon film universe," said Charles Band, CEO and Founder of Full Moon. "So, it is extremely important to us that our brand be forever in good hands. The Dynamite team have surpassed all of our expectations, creating a collection of cards that exemplify the magic, mystery and visual grandeur of Puppet Master and the iconic characters within. We couldn't be more pleased with this partnership."

The Puppet Master 35th Anniversary Deluxe Ultra-Premium Trading Card Set will be available exclusively through the BackerKit campaign for a limited time.

Doesn't look like they are going to dive very deep into autographs. I know Charles Band signed for Evil Bong and Irene Miracle for the Puppet Master set through Attic cards. Would have been cool for Paul Le Mat, Barbara Crampton or Mews Small to sign. Maybe some William Hickey cuts. Not sure how many of the puppet voices are still around but they would make for cool autos as well.

The fact that it is covering all 5 films I think I would have expected a bit more.

Just dropping this here:

I haven't seen all of them, but the puppets have voices?

I was surprised to see this announced so close to the Attic Cards set, but I guess that's been a few years on already.
