The Sad Story of Team Fortress 2 Trading Cards

The Team Fortress 2 blog is rapidly becoming a very interesting place to find out off-beat news about the game. Take this latest entry which shows off some Team Fortress 2 trading cards which, while planned for distribution as promotional items at cyber cafes never came into public light, until now!

You can find the Demoman trading cards right here then sit back and relax until some more emerge.

Wonder if they'll release the pyro card with his/her backstory

Pretty cool regardless, and the demoman card made me laugh.

I saw a poster-size one of these about the pyro in a game shop in Berkeley (but it was more a 'guide' than a 'bio'. Maybe something else?) The owner said that Valve gave it to them. Needless to say, they didn't want to part with it.
