I don't care for the card designs at all but figured the promo card and the redemption would more or less get me value equal to the $205 retail price. I thought the cards using the newer box arts looked better. The older, fatter, squatting looking pop designs just look bad in card form even though I like them in actual pop form. Overall, not impressed and will likely not buy anymore. Unless they release something special for NYCC or SDCC next year and I can build the price into my con budget.
I felt the same way with this. Got a box on Thursday like you with the Black Panther promo card. After seeing the cards, I just wasn't impressed. I'm not sure what I expected. I think I was hoping for some of the fun that Funko has with their NFTs in this physical card space. Like - put the characters into zany backgrounds. Don't just show me a stock image of a funko pop. Am I alone here?
I would be open to getting these next year if they make some changes. Otherwise, this is a one-and-done for me.
