Cryptozoic The Walking Dead Season 2 Trading Cards Fall 2012

[The Madbacker]

I was kind of hoping that the Shadowbox cards would feature memorable walkers.

- Well Walker
- Killed Dale because Carl thought he was a bad dude Walker
- Sophia & Shane Walkers
- Randall Walker
- Otis bait getting eaten by walkers

So what would be considred the top hit in the set?

[SerialKilnWalkr]

Release date is set in December. Just like S1.

A top hit would be one of the two redemptions.

Serial's correct, 1 of the 2 set's of redemptions will most likely be the top hit. BUT I think some sketches could fetch a lot, if sold right away. Plus Rick's auto will be in big demand, and probably Lori's.

That leads me to this question guys. So, Rick's auto no doubt will be the highest priced auto. Do you think Reedus's will be second, or possibly Lori's? I'm just basing this as Reedus's is still fetching upwards of $300. Just curious what you all think? And I apologize if this was discussed, as I did miss some pages, when all the e-fighting was going on lol.

[SerialKilnWalkr]

Yeah Sketches will be a big hit as well I agree Cujo.

As for the second highest priced auto I think it will be Norman Reedus more so than Sarah Wayne Callies. He plays a very popular character in Daryl Dixon can't say the same for same for Lori Grimes.

[Texas Brave13]

Those sketches look amazing!!!!

[buckycap]

I would think the season 1 autos of Andrea would fetch a good amount too.

[SerialKilnWalkr]

Yes they will without question, but from this set which will have the top price tags.

I would say the triple wardrobe redemption. The Yeun/Cohan dual is nice but a lot of those exact same cards were signed and given away at SDCC for free. Maybe I'm in the minority but the triple wardrobe is far more desirable.

Define "a lot." I can't find any completed listings on Ebay. These may be more rare/popular than you think, and who knows, Cryptozoic cold have added a unique stamp or something to specify that it came from a Series 2 box.

I agree with Ted. I've been looking for one on ebay since the San Diego Comic Con, and not one has popped up for sale. People say "a lot were given out", yet crypt reps are stating "very few". So which is it?

There were some sold on eBay after SDCC in July. Those won't show up in completed listings now as it would be over 3 months.
I'd say several hundred were passed out at the Cryptozoic store at SDCC the day the Yeun and Cohen signed. The people working the store had stacks of the cards that they were passing out. Though you had to be at the store 2 differant times to get both signatures. They weren't signing at the same time. I've still got mine from the signing.
I'm sure Crypto will do something differant to the card. The pic on their site makes the card look like it's got a matted border which the cards from SDCC didn't have. I'm sure there will be something put on the back of the cards to as I thnk the SDCC Cards were blank on the back.

I know atleast 3 were sold on eBay right after SDCC. My wife had got one signed by Yeun only and when she saw that one had sold on eBay she put her's on eBay since I had a dual signed one. I know other popped up right after that.
Must were personalized though.

Thank you for posting this. I wasn't there so I couldn't say for sure how many they signed but I know I saw pics from the event with stacks of those pictures for them to sign. I think they signed a few hours apart but I know there are pictures from the signing out there.

Here is a video I found from both of their signings showing the long lines and a pile of the cards (yes I know they probably ALL weren't signed, but to those of you thinking there weren't that many signed were wrong. I'm sure there are a bit fewer of the pics with both of them signed though.):

The Walking Dead Cast Signing - YouTube!

Seems like you guys think I am dissing the dual auto (I would love to have it) but I was just comparing it to the triple wardrobe in terms of what I think the values would be.

[SerialKilnWalkr]

Great info, I'd much rather have the Shane redemption between the two. The one in the packs for the dual auto I am sure will be different from those signed at the store along with the Cryptozoic Hologram on the back.

Thanks for the video. It kind of looked like there were maybe 100-150 at each signing, so you're looking at roughly 300 available at SDCC. I'd bet that only half of those were signed by both actors.

I know you weren't dissing the auto (what WD fan WOULDN'T want one?), but I really think these will be more desirable than the triple relics. Hopefully we'll find out soon.

[Cujobyte]

Am I foolish to still hope for a Black Friday surprise from crypto? lol.

Thanks for that info.

ATTENTION

Walking Dead Series II Boxes are now on sale on Cryptozoics website for $84 while they last!!! being they are on sale at the website I see this product going live next week...let's hope

Trading Cards

Just ordered (3) boxes and glad I was able to get them at MSRP rather than all the ridiculous prices on ebay

[Lbacall]

I have noticed that there is a 2 box limit of this on the Cryptozoic website. Is this for real or just another website oversight and my order will be cancelled? I just saw the above post. I ordered 6 boxes at first and then read that if more than 2 were ordered that the order would be cancelled.

[Miranda]

Please be advised that all orders are limited to 2 boxes per household. Orders, even if you try to break it up into multiple orders, for more than two boxes to any shipping/billing address will be canceled. There is a very limited quantity available, and this is to be fair to as many folks as possible.

[Cujobyte]

Miranda, my order went through for a full case. So....site hiccuping??

Thanks Bader for the info! Guess I'm getting 2 boxes!

[Bader]

Thanks just seen that submitted another order as it does say orders more than 2 will be cancelled...kinda flawed imo

No, You will be able to place orders for greater quantities, but if you actually want your order processed you must observe the 2 box limit. We are working on a better commerce system, but until that time orders will be policed as we receive them. If you mistakenly placed an order for more than two boxes, and go back to place an order for 2 boxes, we will cancel your order for more than two boxes, and honor your order for 2 boxes.

[Lbacall]

My 2 orders for 2 and 6 boxes have already taken the money from my bank account so they definitely both went through. I am guessing a refund will be coming although I certainly wouldn't have minded getting them all.
