I want to start this off by saying that I'm writing this post coming from a good place. I understand that "Secret Lair" products are out of financial reach for many people. Magic is an expensive hobby. This is my 25th+ year playing this game. I am blessed to be able to afford a purchase like this when something special comes up. I also want to acknowledge that there has been backlash against the recently announced "The Walking Dead" Secret Lair with mechanically unique cards. The cards printed in Can You Feel with a Heart of Steel? are reprints of cards that were printed previously. They are fancy versions, for sure. But not mechanically unique. They also happen to fit perfectly with my robots-themed Karn deck. Without further ado...
The deal with the Secret Lair products is that they are available for a very limited amount of time, but they are printed to demand. When I saw that they were doing a robots Secret Lair, I was like shut up and take my money. This was months ago. Due to COVID complications, printing was massively delayed. It was worth the wait.
Here are some pictures of the unboxing.
Karn has found a new home. At least, a new home for when I'm at home. The box is sturdy/solid, but it is still a cardboard box. It is delightful to see that they took the time to consider other ways to use the packaging for these cards. Well done.
