    Default Fleer Ultra X-Men 2018 cards.

    There might already be a thread about these, but a search yielded nothing.

    Has anyone actually seen these out in the world? They're supposed to have already been released but I don't see them anywhere. When I look online, I only see them being sold by the box for over a hundred dollars. I really just wanted to buy a couple of packs, relive some nostalgia and then go from there.

    There's actually a certain irony to this. Because I remember when I was growing up in the '90s, the trading cards (as well as the toys, pogs, etc) were easier to find than the actual comics.

    I saw a box for under $150, but there are only 12 packs in a box and 6 cards in a pack. The base set is 150 cards. This will be expensive to complete.

    That's the thing. I'm not sure I want to complete it. If my sense of nostalgia is sated after opening a couple of packs, then I'd rather not have 10 more packs on hand.

    I haven’t seen any packs either. Selling them online by the box at a steep price seems like a strange and counterproductive way to market a product. And that’s a shame, because the art seems to be very good.

    And who doesn’t want a whole series of cards where Deadpool gives you a tour of the world?

    Oh, this is happening? Great marketing Marvel... I haven't heard about or seen any sign of this since it was rumored. But 150 for 12 packs is ridiculous. Nuh uh.

    Update: yeah, I haven't found anything less than $130+ a box, rounds out to about $11 per pack. I'll pass.
