From Tom's twitter: Filsinger Games to release Limited Edition playing card for Colt Cabana July 30-31 at Chikara shows in Reading/Philly. This begs the question, but why wasn't this card offered with the Chikara set? I ordered the Chikara set. Guess I will wait to order the Cabana card when the next LOW set comes out.

It's pretty Cool though that FG is releasing the LE Colt Cabana card and I may not be getting the CHIKARA set, it still looks like a really Solid set of cards...

If there is any logic to this whole thing I am all ears.

Colt isn't a part of the regular Chikara roster, hence he's not in the set.
However, I know that he will be appearing on a Chikara card later this month, and the timing works out with an FG cross-promotion with Chikara and Colt.

I get that. But why release the set and a deal to order the LE's and then insert an LE card AFTER the set it out. Basically I ordered a set and now find out I was missing pieces--Brilliant. Sorry, but FG does not have enough other products I want to order along with the Cabana card.
The logic on this one just does not ring true.

Very cool to see a Cabana card. I kinda agree with Ex as far as the business bit goes, but there are quite a few possibilities why it worked out that way... could be it was Chikara's idea... could be Colt was trying to get signed by WWE and didn't...could be they wanted to see what the sales were like first... lots of possibilities.
I really don't think Colt Cabana will be in such demand that it's some sort of attempt at getting a few extra bucks out of the customers, and I'd rather they do this than wait 'till next year... we can always just wait to buy it, but the option is nice.

At least a little bit of thought was done before because the card had to be printed when the set was done, so they decided on some other LE cards that weren't in the set. It does look bad being added right after the set is being shipped.

It does look bad being added right after the set is being shipped. I can say with certainty that the card was NOT printed with the Chikara set. I believe that Tom wanted to do something extra, and this was a "last minute" bonus card based on new circumstances.

I am always happy when new stuff comes out, even if it is not something I am interested in. It is, however, very unfortunate that this season's new stuff is wrapped up in some real scratchers and befuddeling moments.

He's been signed since 2009 so it's about time. Colt's a great guy and I'm not just saying that because he played my song on his podcast.

I would love to see an Ace Steel card to go with this (and OBVIOUSLY a CM Punk) so that the Second City Saints could roll through the LOTF!
