Very clever that they got around copyright by not including any Minecraft themed art on any of the cards. It doesn’t take away from the HC TCG experience! Well done Beef!

This is 100% true. It is even more amazing in my opinion.

The fact that one of Pearl’s moves is “5 am” had me laughing for at least a full minute 😂

[@phanuelthemasterbuilder]

The references to key moments are awesome.

[@sammie3277]

I love 5am Pearl especially during Double Life? I'm not sure due to poor memory but it was one of the life series where she was acting crazy and lived in a tower so I think it was Double Life.

[@MysticEagle52]

@@sammie3277 yes. Ep 2 to be precise (I literally just watched it from her perspective lol)

[@baseballjustin5]

And her running Decked Out at 6am... is always fun lol

[@Zedja]

I do believe you lucked out with that Foil TFC card. It wouldn't surprise me if that will become the most sought after card.

[@Beavie]

Seeing the TFC cards gave me the feels, especially the rare.

[@RamatiKat]

If you plan on keeping the foil TFC on display get yourself a touch case or at the very least a top loader in addition to the sleeve. They will help keep it safe and protected better than just a sleeve. (If using a toploader besure to orient the sleeve and toploader in different directions, sleeve upsidedown/toploader rightsideup.)

[@phanuelthemasterbuilder]

Ooooo I will steal this info as well thank you very much.

[@ChiaZachary]

one can also consider double/triple sleeving before the toploader too, additional protection for the card, and double sleeving when done properly will confer protection against liquid spills

[@TWhi2834]

Look up Frameamajigs. Gives a nice Frame for any cards you want to put in it.

[@m1gr3nA]

@@ChiaZachary i'm not sure what size the cards are but some manufacturers offer (inner) sleeves that are sealable. they provide slightly better protection against water (including air humidity which might be important in case of foils), dust, and it's not possible for a card to slip out of it. i would recommend those for all cards and then get outer sleeves in addition for the ones in the deck being played. for shelf display you can get special frames (for example two pieces of plexiglass with bolts in the corners and a stand) but keep in mind that almost any colored ink will degrade in uv (colors will become bleached) so keeping cards exposed to direct sunlight is not a good idea. better hang them on a wall that sun does not directly shine on.

[@ChiaZachary]

@@m1gr3nA to be fair, while yes, sealable inners provide a bit of extra protection, the amount granted when double/triple sleeving not sufficient such that it is worth the extra hassle i feel. One can always refer to the Professor's (Tolarian Community College) sleeve reviews for what he recommends for sleeving and such for each layer (inner, outer, over)

[@SkyjayBradley]

The Etho card at 14:00 is SO CUTE... The TFC card at 14:30 is so sad, but nice that he gets remembered through the Hermitcraft TCG...

[@brandonturner759]

They made B-Dubs look so short by having so much air above his head

[@fieryhephestus]

as a former tcg player, i understand the significance and value of the tfc card, and it is worth more than money can buy, and must be pristinely kept

[@Medusa_plays]

The foil TFC made me tear up. You gotta frame it.

[@ivorydragon]

Omg the illistration on tfc's card!!!!!! Its really heartwarming to see and extremely beautiful!!! Kudos to the artist who created it!!!!

[@Idran]

I can hear his laugh when I see the art on the common version. :D

[@ei..]

Did not expect to end up crying from a tcg unboxing video.. Rest in peace TFC.

[@Saturday_Jones]

The Elven Kiss looks just like a Peanut Butter Blossom. I’m not sure if they are common in the UK but a quick google search should connect the dots. It’s essentially a peanut butter cookie with a Hershey’s kiss chocolate on top

[@justcallmeness]

One year I made 35 dozen of those for a fundraiser. Haven't eaten them since, haha :)

[@nasiskahn]

Right! I think of those cookies too when I see the card.

[@nadehzda5015]

We don’t have those! That’s so interesting!

[@NikolisKitchen]

Yeah, they're definitely themed after peanut butter blossoms.

[@cinematicwaffle8710]

Totally. Those things suck but I bet the Elven Kisses taste alright :}

[@Jojo.F87]

ALL of the art is so freaking good, every bit of this project has been amazing, but DANG I REALLY NEED THAT WELSKNIGHT RARE that art just speaks to me on another level. Its amazing. Everything is amazing, shoutout to all the artists for their hard work!

[@GoOregonDucks]

Loving this week in his office

[@riuphane]

Cool to see yours, my collector's edition card was a signed Scar, which I'm so happy about. I totally agree about the quality of all the components, really impressive and nice. Only regret for me was not buying 2 starter sets so i could play with others, but it was a collection thing to begin with

[@b.assmaster1504]

I loved the cards. I also got a Foil TFC card myself, it's just sad he wasn't here to witness it all. His time came, yet for everyone else it felt like it was too early. For everyone that got their cards, enjoy them as much as you can, and maybe I can meet others and play against or trade cards!

[@avaaasimar4730]

aaaaa seeing the irl cards makes me really wish i'd gotten some hermit packs back when the tcg was on sale. I'm not interested in playing the game all that much, but being able to display the cards and try pulling for my favourite hermits would have been so fun..! Oh well, I guess I'll just keep an eye out in the unlikely case there's ever a re-run

[@vincentamirante5092]

i just got my signed grian card and cant stop laughing about his "start a war" move and i got a stand for my desk it looks so good

[@abigailhutchins8240]

Ooooo this was so fun!!! I was SO excited when I unboxed my cards!! I managed to get 4 iskalls LOL. But my favorite card was my collector's card, since I got a SIGNED CUBFAN. Gotta love getting your favorite hermit by complete chance!

[@Densema]

Yeah I too got my favourite Hermit, a signed holo Gem, I was literally screaming while unboxing this! Just too amazing!

[@HeartGamer26]

Loved seeing what you got in your TCG unboxing and my heart when you got the rare holo TFC card

[@shanmianhiyueshongdaojukei9732]

I hope the community made a HC TCG card game that's playable in mobile so I can join multiplayer and play with some other people. Love the contribution Hermitcraft gives to us.

[@1unar_eclipse]

Definitely playable on browser, not sure if it works well on mobile though

[@donnanoble9772]

It works, at least, last I checked, it did! The only real problem is seeing the entire board at once, but they keep on working on it!

[@squiddorito]

Small confession: the red and green cubes that got put in the starter box? They look delicious. They look like little cherry and green apple hard candies or even like little jello cubes and I want to eat them. My goblin brain demands it

[@kierianiis]

If there had been pop tarts in there you’d know Creo has recap fans 😂

[@dojelnotmyrealname4018]

I love that the armor stand book wizard, Zombie Cleo, has a book. You wouldn't question why she has one but if you know, you know.

[@Brenilla]

I really wish I had better income when it was up for sale I would’ve bought two sets & a TFC card (so I could play either my Cuzin or others). Amazing seeing it all!

[@wisteriatheclerizard]

I also got a foil TFC and I definitely cried opening it, and again now. ❤

[@stratometal]

I swear if I open a pack and I get a TFC card I will let myself cry a bit, just seeing that beautiful art with such a beautiful soul made me tear up a bit.

[@eloquentornot]

This is so cool! It's really amazing to see all the art, and the joy and care put into these cards is so clear, just so wonderful that Beef and everyone were able to come together and do this!!

[@LadyValishade]

Hhhh that Dungeon Master Tango card looks absolutely phenomenal. Totally jelly rn. Congrats on your haul!

[@Em0cows]

The art on the cards looks so pretty!

[@mccleslie13]

Pix made me cry, just by his gleeful review of the Hermit TCG cards he had gotten. Appreciate his positive and happy persona so very much! Pixlriffs is a stellar creator! Would love it Pix was invited to be a "hermit" one day!

[@belodie]

It was confirmed at one point that the recap team wouldn't be invited to become hermits themselves, but Pixl has been on the server as part of the crossover event with Empires. He even recorded an episode of the recap live on the server!

[@mccleslie13]

If S9 lasts until Christmas I could only hope for another crossover! ☺️

[@arrow_awsome]

when i was opening mine i mentioned to my sister that i really hoped i could pull one of the convex or joe hills; and my next card was cub!! all of the cards are so good and mine are by far the coolest merch i own

[@keib.616]

You got a true treasure, and it's quite touching to see. Thanks for the excellent unboxing and a good look at some of these cards.

[@EvesterBee]

The FOMO is feeling real now! Very fun seeing what you got, but I’m so regretting not grabbing a pack myself now!

[@Hyweed]

5:32 Error Bdubs Reference on Red Card Shelf. It's those details that rlly hit the mark. Really awesome

[@raydabolt]

I was lucky enough to get a signed Pearlescent Moon slabbed card with my set. You’re lucky to have gotten TFC’s foil card!

[@dragonmaster1500]

I love the way that the art of the Foil TFC looks. I didn't really get a chance to follow him after I found Hermitcraft, but his passing still hit me kind of hard.

[@FharishAhmedPortfolio]

15:00 LoL the fact that he's short, has nothing to do with it 😅😅😅

[@ztarblack]

That TFC card 🥹🥹

[@pumpkin363]

tango card is looking absolutely incredible!!

[@Sock-Monster-Simian]

My box was pretty busted (especially my booster box, which I'll just have to get rid of, because it's half crushed), but the cards are all in perfect condition so I'm really grateful. The main game box just has a single crease, which is another blessing. When they talked about the shipping, I did get a little concerned. Sad it's not in perfect condition, especially the booster, but love it all the same. I didn't even consider possibly needing more than one set to play decently different games together ('cause I don't know anyone who watches Hermitcraft). Glad I got the booster. Didn't have more than 90 bucks to shell out for this game, so I didn't really have a choice anyway, if I did consider it.

[@lary6420]

Damn, I teared up when you pulled the foil TFC card. I really miss him.

[@christinaapplegate5281]

Thank you for sharing. I really wish the Hermits would make some general Hermitcraft merchandise. I love all the Hermits not just one and can’t really afford everyone’s so I would be more likely to purchase something that just said Hermitcraft and maybe the season. ❤

[@ranjanasharan4051]

I love the mlm flag in the background and very cool cards My pack has also arrived and i shall open it today

[@enkays_den]

I'm not certain it's the mlm flag but if it is, 💅

I don't think it is (colour is inverted), but it could be. In any case, good for him, having nice wall decoration.

[@nasiskahn]

You got a clock and a golden apple! Cool! I love that foil TFC. I really want that Tango. I got the other Tango which I love but to have the other one would be cool. I'm happy that I got 23/26 Hermits in my cards. I need to do some trading and playing! My special card was Cub. I didn't get any signed cards... bummer.

[@cr4cker394]

Very cool opening. I got a signed Mumbo as my extra card 🎉

[@sammie3277]

1:20 I love how you explain how you all split up the watch duty for Hermitcraft. For some reason, I just assumed one person watched everyone's episodes. That would have been extremely difficult to doby now that I think about it. Especially when the season started or when all the hermits are really active and pumping out lots of episodes, lol. I also want to know who is the lucky one to watch DOCs movie length episodes 😂

[@Pixlriffs]

Zloy used to watch everyone and write the script on his own during Season 4, but by the time S5 began, we decided to split watching between both of us. It saved him a lot of effort, the script became collaborative, and meant I had a lot better context for some of the stuff I was reading in the voiceover!

[@chriscosmic5357]

so excited to see you unbox it, and well jell of your hermit cards

[@moontravellerjul]

such a heartwarming video. the hermitcraft community is truly awesome!!

[@lucaswatts2141]

[@zaya65]

Excellent video very cool to see it go full full circle with you recapping IRL H-TCG. Now there can be peace...

[@zachwillett5853]

The Elven cookies remind me of a dessert my mother and I enjoy called peanut butter blossoms. It's a peanut butter cookie, but before the cookie is done baking, you pull the tray out and press a Hershey's kiss into the center. Obviously, Scar's cookies have that violet color, meaning it's something perhaps a bit more special than a drop of chocolate, but the correlation is still there.

[@emryspaperart]

yeah those are definitely the inspiration scar used for the elven cookies - i've only ever seen them in recipe books though and iced gems were my first association with the elven cookies too dfkgjdfg

[@baseballjustin5]

Maybe they used Purple Hershey Kisses?

[@TheDertyFerd]

That was a great unboxing vid. What a pull to get both those TFCs, RIP miner. The tango slabbed card is amazing too. Easily one of my favourite hermits, just behind Etho

[@miniciominiciominicio]

That was really lovely to watch. I'm glad you were able to get both TFCs. :)

[@Vaydore]

The foil TFC card is legitimately so cool, I just wish TFC could've been here to see it himself

[@DrawnbyCC]

So excited to see them finally in your hands! So glad you like it!

[@phanuelthemasterbuilder]

This was some sweet pulls. Does anyone else feel like your deck were made just for you cus I was stoked with mine. I got a Graded and Signed Doc. Also does anyone else have a signed Docm77? Mine was signed: Doc #77 Does that mean anything or that's how he does his signatures?

[@Raina111111]

I think it's just how he does his signature. I saw some other cards signed by him, and they say the same thing.

[@phanuelthemasterbuilder]

@@Raina111111 cool thanx :)

[@reality9451]

I have always been impressed by the incredible professionalism and quality product of all of the Hermitcraft members, old and new. It is obvious that they sacrificed absolutely NONE of this mindset when creating this physical product. I am in awe - kudos! Oh, the recap crew too - I don't have time to watch all of the episodes by even my favorites - but the recap at least lets me keep up with them. Another kudos to that trio!

[@beachybird1251]

Congrats to every artist that contributed to this project! You are all amazingly talented! Next to the Hermit cards, my fav were the Effect cards. Absolute perfection! Thanks Pix for making such a thoughtful video for those of us unable to collect. It was a joy to share in your unboxing!

[@dangtangaming]

Seeing TFC being the first foil pix gets is very sentimental for true hermitcraft watchers

[@VulpisFoxfire]

It's kinda neat seeing little fan projects turning into real world product, like this TCG, and how 'Diggy Diggy Hole' got picked up by Windrose...

[@DominicVictoria]

I started watching HC in season 9 so I don’t really know TFC. I’m going to start watching his old videos. He seems like a wholesome person.

[@darianleyer5777]

The only things that could have made the release better were A) some Alter Egos, B) a Boss or two, and/or C) If The Guy Who Started Hermitcraft In The First Place got a card.

[@bonzue]

@Pixlriffs My bonus gift card was a signed non-holo BDubs card. I'm definitely gonna have to find ppl to trade with, cuz I'm missing a lot of hermits that I watch. :3
