Default Munchkin Gets Promoted

I feel dumb for asking, but with regards to this newly released 15-card set...can these cards be found in base sets of Munchkin? Are they in any of the expansions or booster packs? Or are they completely separate?

I just bought this as well. There are two unique Zombie monster cards, John of the Dead and Santa Clause undead. There is an Apocalypse Go up a Level card and a Cthulhu Promo Card. The rest are regular munchkin backs of door and treasure cards. Supposedly these were all promo card types given at various events and not found in any base sets , expansions or boosters. That's why I bought it.

After I posted this, I looked at the 2011 Booster pack I purchased from Warehouse 23, and there are a few duplicates. I also have Cut In Line which I either got as a bonus with my last order or it came with something else I bought at a store. Can't remember. So, for me, I'd have at least 4 duplicate cards.

Only 3 cards are new, the other 12 will be duplicates if you've been collecting promos for a while.

I would point out that the card list is on the website, so we aren't hiding what's in the set. I'm sorry to hear that some people feel slighted.

Yes, it does say on the product page that 12 of them are reprints. For those that haven't already spent time and money getting them, this is a much better option. For the rest of us (me at least), I'm going to put my duplicates in my Legends deck and the 3 new cards in my Fantasy deck. Definitely still buying the pack to get the 3 new cards though.

Who cares? Is it in the rules that duplicates can't be in the same deck? And if you have all the expansions, you have a HUGE deck (heh heh). Why not split it up into custom, smaller decks. Have a few unique duplicates might be neat for this scenario.

Does anyone know if there's a chance the Pegasus card will be back?

For some reason, that's a very popular and hard to find card.

Thanks

Well, one of the 3 new cards is for Zombies. I suppose you could still put it in your Fantasy deck if you wanted, though. (For that matter, the 12 reprints include, I believe, a Cthulhu card, an Apocalypse card, and two more Zombies cards, so you may not want to put them ALL in your Legends deck. ;-) )
