Latest Obsession!

The latest item on my ever expanding gimme gimme gotta have it list is The Art Hustle trading cards.  Check out the official website here: http://thearthustle.com/

They are trading cards done in traditional style wax packs .  Only the subject matter is a little different from the Sports (or in my case X-men, yeah, I that kind of uber nerd) trading cards you might remember from childhood.  The cards are all modern artists!  The kind that do graffiti, draw graphic novels, and design the next best toys for us grown up collectors.  Most of the cards are either profile portrait cards of the artists or images of selected artworks from the various artists.  There are also special inserts that are signed, error cards, even original artwork (ratio of original artwork is two pieces per 36 packs).

The third series is set to come out soon and I really really want some.  Could you tell?  Check out the website to see the line up of artists that will be included.  Junko Mizuno  Yeah, that's right, that's all you need to know.

If you hunt around online you can still find some Series 2 card packs for sale so, check that out.  Toy Break opened a case of series 2 on You tube and they got a Camilla d'Errico sketch card.  I'm so jealous right now.
