Well... it's a pack of LEGO playing cards. Fright Knights theme. I just
bought them a few hours ago. There was only one pack laying around on a
table at the Lego department.

What country?  I've never seen them in the U.S. -- did you find them in
the U.S.?


I have to say, I never even knew LEGO playing cards existed! :)

Are these cards a special item or a promo maybe? Has anyone ever seen these
before?

IIRC, they came out in 1997(?). . . but only a very limited release, AFAIK.

IIRC, Ardjan Besse of Belgium once had some scans up on his webpage.  (I bought
10 copies from him a couple years ago.)  You might check the links page
<http://www.lugnet.com/links/> and look up his site; there's prolly some more
info there...
