What: Game of Thrones The Complete Series Vol. 2 trading cards
Arrives: Nov. 16 Dec. 14
Box basics: Three autographed cards per three-pack box (20 boxes per case)
Pre-order: Click here (live soon)
What's buzz-worthy: A format change for this one gives Thrones fans an autograph in every pack as part of a release that's limited to only 600 750 cases worldwide.
Update (Sept. 7): The increase above is from unanticipated demand, according to the company. "Demand for Game Of Thrones The Complete Series Trading Cards: Vol. 2 has been overwhelming, if not stunning," said a company statement. "There is simply no way possible for us to satisfy anywhere close to the volume of orders that have already been requested, and we’ve not nearly heard from all of our distributors and dealers yet. With that in mind, we’re going to modify the production run from 600 cases to 750 cases, and delay release from Nov. 16 to Dec. 14. This will give us time to secure additional assets that will keep the product at a high quality level."
