Sorry if this is old news, I've not seen anything on it yet..

I got the new issue of Arcadia this morning, and there's a full page ad for "The King of Fighters Trading Card [1999 - 2002], 2003.01.17 on sale!"

Looks like its a 90 card set.

I'll try to take a pic of the ad when I get back from work, as well as the KoF ex2 ad that's next to it :)

I know there's at least a couple of guys on the boards that are into the cards, thought you might appreciate the info.

If any of the Japanese based members can get them, I might be after some too ;)

Oh, I'd love to get my hands on these. Too bad they don't do previous KOFs, too.

Ditto. However, unless there's some original commisioned artwork in there, I may end up passing on it (since about half of the original artwork will be stuff done by Nona *UGH!*).

And VX, they did have KOF '96 artwork in the KOF Chronicles trading card series.

Sounds interesting, I wouldn't mind getting those cards, expecially if Nona has done some stuff for it <img src="graemlins/drool.gif" border="0" alt="[Drool]" />

SNK/playmore art collecting isn't a hobby, it's a way of life


btw, what are they trying to say by having K' and Kyo on opposite pages?

Sweet... It'd be cool if the Neo Store got some in stock and gave one free pack on all orders...(I can dream can't I?) <img src="graemlins/drool2.gif" border="0" alt="[Drool 2]" /> <img src="graemlins/drool.gif" border="0" alt="[Drool]" />
