It took us a month of going twice a week to get all the cards, we were unable to do this through the packs they gave. We had to trade for a few of the cards. A week after we traded for a Rapunzel we got her. But in all the packs we have received, we have never received a Monstro or Mickey's Magic Beans. Of course, we never received a card from 61-70 either.



We are on hard now ourselves. It is hard. Played Kronk and lost 9 out of 9 portals so far!

Congrats on collecting all 70 cards! Did you get them during the testing period? We still don't have any of the 61-70 range.

I don't think someone can sell a card at the park. I think that's one of those things that can get you banned from Disney for life.

I remember years ago, there were people who were arrested and banned from Disney for selling pins at DTD.



I hope you get a chance to try! It's fun!



Wow! That's insane and very un-Disneylike. How did you hear tale of this?

You are right, hard is EVIL!! Only 17 of the cards actually work? Please explain.



Very un-Disney-like!

only 17 cards beat hard

and another thing their are more jerks at WDW people will no longer trade you stars thanks to dumbies in tortuga tavern

they are telling every 1 DON'T TRADE YOUR STARS UNLESS FOR STARS!!!

stars don't mean any thing they all do the same thing.........

ive seen their stacks they have about 200 cards just stars and are only trading for stars, they have made kids cry!!! yes kids cry, while in line we talked to a mother who told us that some jerks in tortuga wouldn't trade her kids because they don't have stars, mom was like what jerks they are! they came running back to me crying because some jerks say these cards are better just because of power and will beat the game before any thing else. Sure as pigs fly.... i beat shadow man on hard using non stars

Are you serious?

You always trade a star for a star because of the rarity.

Yet another person who is clueless.

It's disheartening to see someone's first post is to insult another member.

But, this week it's only me and Tyler, so maybe we'll pop over to get some more cards. i'm surprised we haven't seen you in the park playing as of yet. We'll run into you sometime!! Got to before we move in June!

Oh that stinks!! Did you get more cards during spring break? Definately have to plan a meet if we don't see each other in the park before you move.

So only 17 of the 70 beat hard?

I think it makes perfect sense to trade like card for a like card. The star cards are harder to find in the packs. Last time we got cards, there were 3 of us, so we each got a pack. We didn't get a single card in the new packs in the 1-22 range.

We have 2 sets of 1-60. One to keep at home and one my son uses to play the game. For each set, it came down to Monstro as the last card to complete the set. We traded Rapunzel for Monstro the last time, and then I gave the person's son a whole bunch of our extra cards.

How many cards does each person in your party get? And this is per day or per trip? Thanks!!! Sorry for the clueless questions, if someone can link me to a FAQ of the game that would be great, we'll be up to date on the rules and such by our trip in October

WOW, I just checked out some sets on auction sites and crazy.....some cards are going for 100.00!!! Why can't people just have fun, it's a game!

I don't know of any FAQ link. Disney's blog recently had something about the ranking of the cards. Rules have been tweaked a few times. Disney doesn't have anything in writing for guests that I am aware of.

Each member of your party will need their park admission to get 1 pack of 5 cards per day. On subsequent visits, they will need their park admission plus the portal key. We usually go with 3 in our party, so we have to have 3 portal keys and our annual passes. Their system will say who each key belongs to, but we put our names on the keys so we know whose is whose.

When you complete a level and get "The End" screen, you can go back to one of the recruiting stations and show them the card. They will scan it to see if it's completed and give you 1 pack of cards.

Mornings seem to be the least crowded times to play, but evening is cool because the lighting makes such a difference when playing in the dark.

Just found out that my step daughter lost all her cards at school!! We're 5 cards shy of one full set, most of our duplicates we're saving for another friend who's coming down in June, the ones we're spending time with before we head out of state. Trying to get their girls a good set before they come down, one set I have 25 cards, the other only 15, but we're getting there. Anymore we only get one out of our 3 packs that we don't have, and that's frustrating. so, we're gonna keep on keepin on!! We'll be at MK with other disboard friends on Saturday the 5th, next time we're over there I'll text you to see if you're there. We're pretty much gonna be there every weekend until we leave, so we got plenty of time to see each other!!

My DD & I have been playing on & off for 2 mths. now. We have fun playing it,even though I've yet to finish "round1" as I have no idea what I'm doing,& I've even gone back to the FireHouse to collect a 2nd set of cards,I'm still having fun!! I do however have a problem with these obsessive people who run up to you,as soon as you step up to the portals,& yell "Do you want to trade, what have you got? Let me see"? I say no,cause I don't have duplicates,& I'm pretty much clueless! I've learned everything from other people in line!!

It was great seeing you last weekend! Glad your step daughter found her cards. My heart sank before when you said she lost them. I hope the stack of cards we gave you help so that you can get the cards you need to finish your sets.

Glad you and your dd are having fun! We are still playing and still having fun too!

My son was one of those who asked everybody if they wanted to trade. Now that he has 1-60 he has stopped asking.

One of our keys was set on medium from before. We have been able to play that card on medium up until recently. The one portal stopped working and we went to the kiosk to see if we could be sent somewhere else. The cm reset it for us and that card is now back to easy.

I'm curious if the key we have that was set on hard would still be on hard or not? Will have to check next time.

I can understand them wanting to keep the queues down having everyone on easy. Last weekend the portals were so backed up when we were there. It would have been worse if people were playing on the harder levels that take longer.

[bouncycat]

YES!!! Those cards did help!! Thanks!! I got 3 new books, one for Dana's son for tomorrow, and 2 others for Leanne's little girls, and I still have some others to trade!! Fun game, we're gonna try to get there early in the morning before our friends are there to let Chris get thru Fantasyland. He gets frustrated with the lines and such.

Finally!

Guess what I saw at the Magic Kingdom tonight? SOTMK merchandise!

They now officially have Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom Trading Card Binders for sale at the Emporium in the Magic Kingdom.

I saw it as soon as I walked into the Fire Station. They have a binder set up with cards and a portal key in it for display, with a price tag.

I wrote more about it on my blog, and actually uploaded a video of it there, but you can see a picture of it below.

The bag is $46.95, and contained 5 really thick trading card pages. It zips up, and has no pockets or anything in it.

[bdoyledimou]

$45?!?!?!?!?!? Wow thats crazy - assuming the cards are the standard size you can pick up a Magic case for half that price!!

Over $50.00 with tax! I paid $4.99 for my binder from a local comic book shop.





It's just the right size for carrying around the parks. I was hoping Disney would make something similar and expected it to be around $20.00.

[bouncycat]

We have those same binders!!! $5 at Wally world!! I didn't see they were selling those yet. We have been told early June for the last 10 cards to go on sale, but no one knows for sure yet.
