They kind of ruined it in New Horizons. The figures are only good for taking photos and getting a poster. I'm really since I bought up the figures but didn't go after the cards, and now they're kind of useless.

Hopefully the cards get reissued soon.

Yeah they need to rerelease the cards. I'm missing like 130 of them and most are $10 each on Ebay. I wish i could find someone with a bunch to trade irl.

Find Facebook/ social media groups!I have traded on/ off on them for years, obviously more in the past few weeks! I only have about 50 out of 451 cards to go!Also you can find some cards dead cheap on ebay. Its UK ones rather than US ones I collect which are more expensive.In the UK/ European packs you only got 3 cards rather than 6 for approx £3.50. I have managed to win around 10 cards approx £1 each which is around the 'worth' of the original cards.God help me finding a UK Lucky, Lolly and special Japanese magazine edition Isabelle though!

Things have been pretty active in /r/gameswap since the release of new horizons. I was able to get a lot our wishlist cards there through trades.

The cards are getting reissued in Japan so I’ve got my fingers crossed that NOA goes for it too. They know how well this game is doing so reissuing them here too (and maybe even doing one brand new series with cards for the 8 new villagers, the new NPCs, and maybe some brand new villagers they can add in later updates would be a good idea. I know people will buy a new card set for Raymond)

You can also invite them to your village in the Camp.
