Connect With a Slayer Named Buffy and Her Friends

Last year there weren't enough Buffy: Evolution cards to go around. The set was a fast sellout at the Inkworks warehouses. It turns out that a certain vampire slayer is still a hot property even with her show strolling off into the sunset (or, in this case, Hell Mouth). The new Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Connections set is a follow-up that includes the first-ever Buffy dual Pieceworks cards that feature not one but two costume swatches from the show.

Connections is unique in that it isn't a synopsis set that recaps all of a season's highlights. Instead the 72-card set will focus on one of the reasons why the show became so popular: relationships.

All cards will be printed on 20-point holographic foil board, which will give the entire set the look and feel of a premium insert. But that's not to say there aren't some inserts lurking in the shadows. Here is a run down:

Dual Pieceworks (1:24 packs - one per box):
This is the first time Inkworks has made Pieceworks cards with two costume pieces. Three cards with four different costume combinations make up the set. The pairings are: Buffy/Spike, Willow/Tara, Xander/Anya.

Slayer's Circle (1:11 packs):
Put together, this 9-card set will build a foil puzzle featuring Buffy and her buds.

Heartbreaks (1:14 packs):
Young love often leads to broken hearts. This six-card embossed set includes the best of them Buffy had to offer.

Platinum Parallel (approximately one per pack):
A special platinum version of the base set with different card numbers and coloring from the base set.

Box Loaders (one per sealed box): three cards in set

Case Loader (one per sealed case): special die-cut coffin card
