If you're interested in expansion packs, follow mystore for updates. I haven't printed any more yet but may if there is sufficient interest.
The home computer collectible cards featuring retro computers are an ideal gift for any retrocomputing or computer history fan.
First Edition
The beautiful foil-stamped metallic PCB design packs were a limited run offered only to original backers of the project. These are all that remain of that run, and when they are gone, they're gone.
You can see a 3rd party unboxing and review here can see they are very happy with the quality.

Disclaimers
I found the title card stuck a bit to the inside of the pack in one deck I opened - but all the computers cards were perfect, and other packs I checked seem to not have this issue with the title card. The YouTube review I posted above is someone opening an identical pack from the same batch and they seem very happy with the quality.
The gloss black package seemed to have some very minor scuffing from the factory.
I wanted to be transparent about these tiny manufacturing imperfections (first edition character?) even though they might not impact your deck. Even if they do, the packs are all in the original unopened box and the computer cards are in perfect condition. You will be the first to open them, should you choose to.
