The 'Death Race 2000' font was actually a Milton Glaser typeface he designed in 1964, vectored by P22 recently.. and they wanted a FORTUNE for it - I decided to look down the back of the Internet instead. Sorry Milton. 🏴‍☠️

It was done in such a playful and - and dare I say it - tasteful way, I don't think anyone saw it for anything other than what is was. It certainly didn't muddy the brand at all, at least not for me.

I'd like to see more of everything! Including some themed sets, 'Golden Age' etc, actors, studios.. definitely more of the hardcore stuff though.. the 'AD&D Jill Kelly' card was fucking stupendously great and so tongue-in-cheek I spat my tea out!!

We've 𝘢𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘪𝘦-𝘪𝘯 with @reelobscurepod.bsky.social this Friday, and to mark the occasion we present a 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 for an expanded 𝗖𝗠𝗖 '𝗛.𝗣. 𝗟𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗰𝗿𝗮𝗳𝘁' 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 card set. Bigly thanks to @waxpackglam.bsky.social for his post-production feedback and eyeballs. We hope you enjoy it!

Take this, @sievetronix.bsky.social.. may it serve you well.

Reverse of the Mythic Bubblegum card; resplendent with the ol' R&R's. Yummy.

And lo, the greatest of honours was bestowed upon
@sievetronix.bsky.social.. the 𝐌𝐘𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐂 bubblegum card for winning *𝘩𝘢𝘭𝘧* of our second '𝗣𝗮𝗽 𝗤𝘂𝗶𝘇!' competition.. congrats! Please read the R&Rs if you want to redeem it! 🫧

There's been a correct answer in the DMs.. but he's disqualified for having an encyclopedic knowledge of these things.. so the card is still up for grabs! Just tell me how it happened, and that mythical bastard is yours!

Not exactly, he's just being sparse with the facts.. I'm giving you a Mythic Bubblegum card for getting half of it right.. there's another one available for the next person who tells me HOW it happened..

They may have said that; at least, that's what the band are saying.. but there was an actual incident.. I want to know what it was!! Google it goddamnsnit!!
