The hype over KPop Demon Hunters isn’t slowing down anytime soon.
Hot off the announcement of a world tour inspired by the hit Netflix film, fans can now pick up official KPop Demon Hunters trading cards online.
Released by the Asian collectibles brand KAYOU, the cards come in two editions: a “Classic” edition with eight rarities and an “Energy” edition with 11 rarities, including serialized rarities designed to cater to collectors and superfans alike. The cards all feature characters, motifs and scenes from the Oscar-winning animated film.
NEW RELEASE
Kpop Demon Hunters Collectible Trading Cards – Classic Edition
This “Classic Edition” box set contains 10 individually wrapped packs, with five cards per pack.
The set includes the chance to pull eight “ZR” cards inspired by the Honmoon, with bold graphics and striking fluorescent ink detailing that matches the “intensity” of the film’s final showdown to seal the energy field. There are also eight “CR” cards, inspired by the HUNTR/X World Tour, with cards showing the girl group in different cities like Paris and Hong Kong.
ALSO AVAILABLE
Kpop Demon Hunters Collectible Trading Cards – Energy Edition
The “Energy Edition” box set, meantime, features five individually wrapped packs containing eight cards per pack.
This set features vivid, pearlized character cards of Rumi, Mira and Zoey, plus Jinu and the Saja Boys. There are 12 different categories of cards to collect in total, with each set ranging from three to 24 types.
The most collectible cards in the “Energy” series are the SE cards, which are inspired by the film’s Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 “Golden,” and feature premium laser etching, portrait-style artwork and a shimmery — yes, golden — effect. Each card is individually serialized from numbers 1 to 366, with the so-called “birthday numbering” celebrating a year since the film debuted online. These are expected to be the most coveted pulls.
Another serialized tier is found in the BP cards, which are numbered from 1 to 999 and capture HUNTR/X in performance mode, before “the spotlight hits, the idol steps on stage and the magic starts,” per a product description.
This is an officially licensed merch release from Netflix, joining other products like official character T-shirts, water bottles, toys and accessories. The KAYOU x KPop Demon Hunters trading cards are available to preorder now with a ship date of August 31. Amazon’s preorder price guarantee ensures that you’ll pay whatever the lowest price is for these cards, between the time you place your order and the day it ships.
Previous KAYOU card drops now go for as much as $100 on sites like eBay online, and the brand is no doubt hoping the Demon Hunters cards will be as valuable — and collectible. Shop the new release and see more KAYOU trading card packs and collectibles here.
