    Should I get the Starter pack or the Multi-pack? I need the Binder to keep my cards safe but I want to get more cards as I only have 3 packets worth.

      Maybe… I’ll have to think about it as I’m short on cash right now. I’m saving up for something as well. Hopefully I will get enough money from my cyberman on ebay to get them 🙂

    Are the costume cards numbered as part of the regular set, or are they classed as separate to the 152 in the collection?

      October 17th, 2013 - 8:19pm

      They’re not numbered.

    • TheExtremeBlueTARDIS

      October 17th, 2013 - 9:12pm

      Yes, they are separate. I think all the cards should have been numbered the same way though. It makes it look strange in the binder.

    • Booboo Jr

      October 17th, 2013 - 9:32pm

      Good, what are the chances of finding all the costume cards without paying ridiculous prices on eBay? At least it won’t make your collection look incomplete.

    • Radburn

      October 17th, 2013 - 9:53pm

      Unlikely – It’s 1 Costume Card per 75 Packets – So a minimum of 4 Boxes & no guarantee of a Ultra Rare…

    • Steampunk Doctor

      October 18th, 2013 - 7:39am

      Just buy a full box , thats what I would do ! I want to try and get more costume cards

  • TheExtremeBlueTARDIS

    October 17th, 2013 - 7:38pm

    78 cards, 74 to go! 😀

    I’m worried about not completing the set though. It should be fairly easier than the original Alien Attax, but I’ve currently got:

    2/8 Rainbow Foils
    3/16 Mirror Foils
    73/128 Commons (including Timeless Moments, TARDIS puzzles, etc.)

    I realise I could just order them singularly if I need to, but I just want to complete the set and not go through that bother.

    Hopefully soon I managed to find the Rainbow Foil Cyberman and Clara, my all time favourite Alien Attax Cards! 🙂

      Saw it in a WHSmith. I guess it’s good if you haven’t completed the last set. I got all Commons but I need more Mirror and Rainbow Foils!

    • matt9982

      October 17th, 2013 - 7:19pm

      How much is the multipack?

    • I Ended the Time War

      October 17th, 2013 - 7:22pm

      £5.

    • TheExtremeBlueTARDIS

      October 17th, 2013 - 7:34pm

      The multipacks are good, I guess, because you are guaranteed 2-3 Mirror Foils and 0-2 Rainbow Foils. When I bought it back in March I didn’t get any doubles of shiny cards and only like five doubles of commons, which I find good since I had around 60 cards at the time.

    • matt9982

      October 17th, 2013 - 8:38pm

      Do you get a Limited Edition card with the Multi-Pack?

    • Radburn

      October 17th, 2013 - 9:54pm

      No – You get an old pack of the first Alien Attax.
      The Tardis LE1 Card come’s with the binder for £4.99p…

    October 17th, 2013 - 5:26pm

    Above the Attack+Defense scores there are the Intelligence, speed, ability etc. What is that for? They weren’t on the last set. I use it for top trumps as its not specified what there for.

      Oh yeah and:
      T2+T6 which seem to connect when you have the other ones. T2 has 1st doctor and the top of the TARDIS on it when T6 has the Eleventh Doctor on and a tiny bit of the side of the TARDIS

    • TheExtremeBlueTARDIS

      October 17th, 2013 - 4:18pm

      Yes, they connect up to make the TARDIS. The others include a Sontaran, Rose Tyler, Clara, Cyberman, Tenth Doctor and a Classic Dalek.

      T2
      4th Doc+Sarah Jane
      Clara Oswald (Rainbow Foil!!!!)
      River Song
      Jo Grant
      Cybermen+Daleks (Timeless Moment)
