What are 2D TCG Fan Cards?
Fan Cards are easily recognized by their distinct purple colored frame. They are not included in the official card list but they each have a unique number located on the bottom left which signifies the order in which they were created. You can get Fan Cards by going to 2D TCG meet-ups and finding other fans who have had custom Fan Cards created. Going through our official order form is the only way to have a 2D TCG Fan Card created.
