I am new here but I think I am already addicted.

Does anyone know any shops in the UK where I can get a box of this set? I know it's not out yet but I am getting ready nice and early. I think I'll get two boxes. I'm in Yorkshire so if anyone knows anywhere local that would be a double bonus.

If not would it be worthwhile trying to import from the States?

I'm not aware of any shops that are getting the boxes in yet (if you do find out about any, let me know!  Grin). You may also want to take a look at this thread:

Thank you, I'll take a look and send Gimli an email if I can find his email address on here.

So no "solid" shops then? Apart from WHSmiths who's cards had no props in

If you want the hobby packs which have all the prop/auto/costume cards in etc...you'd need to go to a more specialist place. WHSmiths will probably only sell the retail packs.

This is an american site that has the cards ready to be pre-ordered. The price for the box isn't to bad, but shipping to the UK is anywhere between $20 - $40 for one box.

Here is a british site that has pretty good deals from time to time, and they also offer free delivery to the UK. Although I did email them awhile back, asking about this set, and whether or not they would get them in, but have had no reply  Sad It's worth keeping an eye on though, just in case  Wink

Yes you were right in the other thread, this is a separate set from Cards Inc with interesting foils in (one per pack) not found elsewhere which is rather a nice set to have, but not at £1.99 a pack
