How the pull works
We build each tier’s cards in batches of real, scanned cards. We publish every batch before anyone pulls. Your card is the next one in a locked, shuffled order that we can’t change. When the batch is done, we publish the full order so you can check every pull.
We set aside a batch of real cards for each tier, about a month of renewals and sign-ups. We scan each card, value it against a named price guide on that date, and take it off sale.
The site shuffles the batch. Before anyone pulls, we publish the checklist and a fingerprint (a hash) of the shuffled order.
When your fee goes through, on your renewal date or the day you join, you get the next card in the locked order and a pull number. Open the pack to see the card’s scan and value.
When a batch runs out, we publish its full shuffled order. Anyone can check that it matches the fingerprint and that every pull came out in order.
Every card in the batch, with its scan, value, price guide and date.

The reveal
Each month your card waits in your member area as a sealed pack. Open it when you like. Try it here with real cards from our shelf.
Pick a band to see its reveal
Every card gets a celebration, and it grows with the band: a soft glow for Base, the full show for Chase. The card is already fixed before the pack opens. The animation only shows it.
Demo cards are real cards from our shelf, valued at market price.
Member perks
On every order while you are a member. Sealed product is not included.
Slabs and booster boxes at a member price, first come, first served. Alpha gets first access and Scrapper gets 48 hours early. Starts when Scrapper opens.
Coming soon. A night at our play space for members, once it opens.
We send your card free with your next order. Or we post it now and you pay the postage.
The rules
Critter Club sells a card a month, with perks. Every member gets a card every month, and there are no draws.

Questions
Not yet. The waitlist is free. When Runt opens at 25 sign-ups, we email you. You choose then if you want to join and pay.
Yes. You cancel online in your member area, as easily as you joined. There is no lock-in.
At market price on the day we pack the card, from a named price guide. Each batch checklist shows the guide and the date for every card. For Riftbound and MTG we use TCGplayer market prices (via JustTCG), converted to Australian dollars.
Riftbound, Magic: The Gathering and Pokémon. Tell us which games you want when you join the waitlist. We use your answers to choose what goes in each batch.
We hold it and ship it free with your next order. Or we post it now and you pay the postage. When our play space opens, you can also collect it in person.
A band opens only when a batch is big enough to hold at least one card from it. For Runt, that is about 200 members. We show its odds now and open it when we can stock it.
No. We don’t buy pulls back for cash or store credit. The card is yours to keep, trade or sell.
Account holders must be adults. A parent can hold a membership for a child.
We publish the full Critter Club terms before Runt opens and before anyone pays. The plain rules on this page are the main points.
