User blog:Bit Stryker/The Rambling Woes of a Collector

Oh dear, oh my. Another collection to build.

The new set of Buddyfight comes out next week, Drums Adventures, and I have a brand new thing to look forward to collecting (/sarcasm).

I of course refer to the fact that Commons/Uncommons/Rares will be having a random chance to have the RR foiling pattern in packs. Not every pack mind you, random packs. So copious amounts of trading/bribing and cajoling later and I might have maybe a third of the set.

I get it though, having an entire deck of shiny, shiny foil cards can be some really nice thing for people with enough money/time/friends to strive for. But for me, it's just another thing to add to the half-built collection folders.

Am I overreacting? Probably. Do I have a complusive collecting tick. Of course.

P.S. The foiled cards are in the middle of packs and don't count towards the 1 rare per pack. Thus you can get a foiled rare AND a Buddy Rare/ SP / RRR / RR in the same pack... so looking forward to my friends opening these crazy lucky packs infront of me knowing my luck.

P.P.S. If anyone knows how to get a hold of the Promo Cards that are apparently in the Manga Volume 1 for english please tell me. I've talked to the supplier of Bushiroad in Australia and they tell me that the promos aren't there. Wether this is just an issue for Australia I don't know but I would like to get a hold of them.
