🕑 Added 2019-10-03 21:18:39 +0000 UTCThe Extra History Collectible Cards are available to order! You can purchase them over at https://store.dftba.com/products/limited-edition-extra-history-collectible-card-set until Wednesday, 13th of November after which they shall disappear back into the pages of history.
Look at some of these glorious cards!
This may be some repeat info for some but...
What's in it?
This limited-edition set of 45 high-quality, linen-paper cards catalogues names, facts, and quips about the people, locations, and ideas we explore in Extra History. A perfect gift for students and aficionados of world history, or for fans of the weekly Extra History animated show! Includes the following series:
- Khosrau Anushirawan
- Genghis Khan
- The Empire of Mali
- The 1918 Flu Pandemic
- The History of Non-Euclidean Geometry
- Kingdom of Majapahit
- Viking Expansion
- Sun Yat-sen
And NEW! FOUR BONUS CARDS, NEVER BEFORE SEEN ON PATREON!
Packaging: shrinkwrap (comes with a small plastic storage bag).
How much will it cost?
The list price will be $30 USD on our online merch store. Because $3+ tier patrons receive a monthly 15% off discount for our store (which changes on the 1st day of each month), the price for patrons is $25.50 USD. This is extremely close to the actual at-cost, break-even price point per set.
When will it be available? When will it NOT be available?
The product page will open in the early morning hours (USA time) on Thursday, October 3 (there will be a post on Patreon).
The product page will be closed end-of-day Wednesday, November 13. This set of physical cards will NOT be available for purchase after this six-week period ends.
During this time, you can pre-order the cards, but they will not ship until after the period ends. On November 14, our merch folks at DFTBA will process the final order numbers, and the sets of cards will be shipped out in mid-late November. We picked these dates so that everyone who buys a set should be able to have it in time for the winter holidays (including international customers).
Will there be more cards in the future?
By producing this particular set, we are fulfilling a promise made to patrons regarding the physical version of the digital "trading cards" that highlight (almost all) Extra History episodes published in 2018 (with the exception of the Sir Robert Walpole bonus card, which is from 2015). As a creative team, our top priority has and always will be the YouTube videos themselves; extra artist time and resources have not frequently been on our side when it comes to cool merchandise ideas we'd like to pursue. In the future, you'll hear about new Extra History products from us when they are at 90-100% completion.
So, who knows what will happen later? We had a lot of fun making these (especially those bonus cards!) and would be happy to do more in the future, if y'all love these as much as we do.

Will not ship before November 15th at the earliest. Just bought my set, but the wait will be almost as bad as waiting for the Partisans......(Any word on when we will get a new Partisans series (Especially considering current us Politics, a mini-series on impeachment could be helpful). Expansion sets for the Partisans would be welcome as well!
