I really loved those sturdy and classy boxes for anthology sets of other Decipher games. I much prefer using them to storing my card in old starter boxes or shoe boxes that are just lying around. I’m really hoping to see something like that for Fight Klub, though I’ve been wondering how they would fit into the FK system.

With the kilo distribution method, I don’t think that there’s room for anthology sets. However, with subscriptions, it would be possible to make a box like that and send three kilos in it (though that’s if the person gets all three at once, rather than the one-per-month option). Another possibility would be to send the third kilo of a set in an anthology-type box with the Black Beauty. I think that this would make it even more exciting to get the third kilo.

So, what are your thoughts about those boxes and how/if they should work their way into FK?

What if they gave us a Set Anthology for each set?

Like, a “One Anthology” would come with a sturdy box like that, and 3 kilos. The only difference in buying them separately is no sturdy box.

For very set after one, the Anthology would be just like that, but it would include the Black Beauty. So a “Two Anthology” would have a sturdy box, 3 kilos of Two, AND a Black Beauty.

Perhaps this could be something considered when you get the membership that promises extra savings… Man, must have new site now!!! :p

I like the idea of somehow getting a decent box to store cards in from the beginning but, perhaps at the release of new kilos (i.e. “Two”, “Three”, “Four” etc…) there could be an addition to the box like a clip-on panel or something (a unique design for each release but that fits together with the others) that means that you end up collecting a whole set. Longer sides and the lid could be divided up into two panels each so, along with the ends you could get at least 8 panels. Perhaps the lid could even have a circular panel for the centrepiece between two other panels and the circular panel could have your gang insignia on it?

you know, now that i think about it, I am not sure the box is so nessecary (no i dea on the spelling there i am sure rhett will correct it (jokes)).
If like most of you I am going to buy 3 kilos of each set to make sure i have every card, I would almost rather just binder these cards because i know there will be no blank spots and I (probably) wont have a the billions of commons I’ve received with previous games.
So I vote for sweet FK binder instead.

I, for one, will definitely have the “Sweet FK Binder”. Having them provide one (probably as an extra to purchase) would be awesome. Make them available in a variety of colors, or with numbers on them. (So the one that has a Black Fist logo and a roman numeral “I” is for set One, but you can get those fist/numbers on a variety of different colors if you choose)

How about binders with gang logos?

 
Avatar AlphaCenturion 2,384 post(s)

Ladies and gentlemen (and Wampa), this man is full of WIN.

Binders with Logos will be awesome. I’d like to have a binder (probably for One or “characters only” or some such nonsense) that has all the logos on it. THAT would be cool, too.

I’ve never liked keeping my cards in binders, but you’re right, BaronMarrath, FK will lend itself to binder storage particularly well. I’m still really hoping for a nice, solid box. If they could pull it off, it’d be pretty sweet to have a metal ammunition box made to fit the cards.

Binders would really kick @%%, I like the metal storage containers or a Coffin case, w/ the gang logo.

 
Avatar jedi 236 post(s)

Do not mean to go so dark, or bring a negative energy to the game, just an

idea?

 
Avatar Wampa_Dan 5,137 post(s)

I like the coffin idea!

I hope that the “gang specific merchandise” that’s gonna be available will include all sorts of peripherals like binders, storage boxes, card sleeves, deck protectors and so on…

I’m going to bring a metal suitcase to tournaments and pull my box out of it.
“Say hello to my little friend!!!”

Why not both? Binders and boxes, cause you can’t store a deck in a binder…

@Chibri
Oooooh SNAP!! nice , gang card sleeves, totally represent!(is that how it’s said?)

 
Avatar ninja 237 post(s)

Uhhh… I think you’re going for “totally representin”. With no “g” on the end.

 
Avatar Wampa_Dan 5,137 post(s)

Yo mama! :p And Yay, for the card sleeves idea!

I love the Anthology Box idea, I still have my 1st and 2nd Anthology boxes from STCCG, along with with a Bajoran and Klingon OSTD boxes.

I like what WotC has done with the World of Warcraft starter decks as well.

I will bring my cards in a guitar case.

El-Mariachi style eh? :p

I’ll carry my cards in a special holster built onto the side of my TV-tray/battle-armor.

 
Avatar Wampa_Dan 5,137 post(s)

Dude, those things are gonna be epic. they need to make some for GenCon! :p

 
Avatar Tao540 92 post(s)

lol Just imagine having an ankle holster for your deck with your respective gang logo on it. I’d be all over it. I could carry my deck with me and have my hands free. Like a fanny pack, but MANLY.

I love the idea of gang merchandise, especially the card sleeves.
