Basically its like this...

there are 100 cards total.

80 of those cards come in common (nonfoil) form and common foil form. These common foils only have the picture with foil the rest is plain.

Then there are 10 Super Rare Foils, there are no nonfoil versions of these, the have both the picture and the border in holofoil.

Finally there are 10 Ultra Rare Foils, there are no nonfoil versions of these, the have both the picture and the border in holofoil and gold writing for the name.

If you look at the list in the first post, there is a * to indicate super rares and ** for ultra rares. Actually seeing them will prob help you to differentiate.

I know it took a while, but the list's been updated .

We have all of the Wind and Nature cards now. We just need to get Fire and Mountain done, and there still haven't been any event cards posted.

gwg... if this is the link: http://gwgtrunks.trafixsolutions.com/TMNT/tmnt.html then you're missing a ton of cards, cause all im getting is 404 errors.

oh and here's the odds GoT:

common: 55 cards. 8:1 (eight commons to a pack)
super rare: 1:6 (one in six packs)
ultra rare: 1:12 (one in twelve packs)
common foils: 1:1 (one per pack)

Super and Ultra rares are ONLY foiled.

Let's get this baby goin'again

Okay, not really that new to the boards, (just don't post much...) Ever since I heard that the game was coming out, I was stoked! Ever since February, I have been looking EVERYWHERE! I went to a pretty good crd shop in town and the owner said he wouldn't order any TMNT cards unless four people asked...I was the first. Anyhow, he said some magazine "gave it a poor review...Blah, blah blah"...So I said...Whatever, I just want one pack at least, because I love everything Turtles...So, since then I kinda' put it on the backburner...Then, one day, I was at a Wal-mart on the oposite side of my town...looking at the card section when...lw and behold, there were some packs! Looked brand new...no price nothing...So I said...Hmm...Maybe, there is a starter deck...after much digging ( Our Wal-marts are a super-mess) I found one...Huzzah! So I bought the deck and a booster and thought it would be great...It was! The next day, before school, I went all the way back to that Wal-Mart and bought three more boosters! It was so fun at school checking out my new cards...building up the decks...Ah the memories...(Former Pokemon Junkie am I...) After school, I took them over to my friends house...We played one game ang got hooked! I told him I may go back and buy some more later that evening. He wanted to go, so between him and I...We bought six packs. The following day, (this past Saturday) him and I both got two more packs...and today I got two more myself...which was awesome! I got Shredder! (Don't tell my friend though...) So I am officially hooked on the new TCG and will support it as long as it lasts!

Got the word from Upperdeck on release of SATW exp

Alright fellow turtle fans, I got the offical word on the release date of the Swift as the Wind exp for the Turtles TCG. They said it will ship ONTIME on May 26 2004. So there you have it. Talk to you later. Thanks.

Does anyone have a typed up spoiler list? I visited a few pages and saw some card images, however what I saw was incomplete.

I also have not been able to find information related to game rules.

Links would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Jason

Me Either...

I have been looking for a spoilers of the TCG everywhere! I cannot find them...My guess is that once Swift as the Wind comes out they will post up the first list with images on the official websites...I cannot even find website that explains the rules or any of that kinda' stuff either!! I suppose we can just discuss the rules here too, rather than start a new thread...
So I have a question...Can you put more than one of the same Item on your Item Zone? Because a Shredder and Three Shredder Blades would be pretty mean...

I wouldn't hold you breath on them fully supporting the game... the Marvel game (which, admittedly, has a MUCH more solid design. not to mention a rule book that actually makes sense.), is getting most of their attention right now.

I don't need a checklist, I need a spoiler. I want a list of cards with all the information on them in text. I checked out gwgtrunks page, and the stuff he has looks really good. Unfortunately it is not complete.

Also, anyone have a scan of the rules?

Just throwing a shout out

Ok ATTENTION! I need 3 more cards to complete my set. Of course, I am also going for a complete foil set as well (call me crazy) and I only need 28 more cards for it. I mainly need these cards:

Wants
1 - This is my justice (x2)
2 - Shredder (x2)
3 - Shinku Throw (x2)
4 - Leonardo (01 - Ultra Rare) (x1)

Have to trade (off the top of my head):

1 - Rekka (x3)
2 - Shinpu (x2)
3 - Phoenix (x1)
4 - Fodu (x1)

Common Foils -

1 - Pushiment (x1)
2 - Hun (x2)
3 - Green Tea (x2)
4 - Absorption (x1)
5 - Beatdown (x1)

Ok I know I have more common foils than what is listed but I am doning this from memory. I will more than likely post the accurate list of what I have for trade up here this evening. Also I have tons of commons if you really need any. I am willing to either buy or trade for the cards I need. Please e-mail me at [email protected] as soon as you can. I will try my best to keep up with the forums here as well. Also my aim screen name is atrandom20 just in case. I'm not on there a whole lot but just another form of contact. Thanks guys/girls for your help. Talk to you soon.

Just to let everyone know that I am going to scan all the cards I have for anybody that wants to see them and put them on our ftp server so you can connect to it and download the pics. Will pack the pics all in one winrar file. Also, I did also talk to Upperdeck about the TMNT TCG website and they said they are a little behind and there just about to finish up the Marvel Origns TCG site and then will start and finish the TMNT TCG site. Just throwing that out as well. I think I have called Upperdeck so much, I feel a strong bond between them...lol.
