Talk about ahead of its time, Metropolis the film was it! But it took all this time (since 1927!) for this ground breaking Sci-fi classic to finally get its own trading card series.



It was funded within 2 hours on Kickstarter. And the prices are really decent. A full base set for $30, a full box for $75. Long time collector Todd Riley put this project together, and it SCREAMS Vintage appeal! All very art deco and very, very cool. Check it out. It's the only place to get the complete master set for $135.

Most adults have never seen a silent film before. But even if they had, the chances they saw a silent film as revolutionary, as sophisticated, and as clever as this sci-fi classic would be unlikely indeed. Take in a few minutes now and see what all the fuss is about. This is a film WAAAYYYY ahead of its time!

I see that it only ships to the USA which is unfortunate.

John, contact Todd Riley the creator and he can probably work something out

Wow, over $11K and less than 5 hours to go. (Thanks in part to a beautiful spread in NSU's final issue!) They added a bunch of cool stretch goals, all of which has been reached. It's great to see so many folks are helping create this nifty product. Thanks to them and Todd Riley (the creator) for getting it published!
