You'd better watch out.
You'd better not cry.
You'd better not pout.
Or you're gonna die.
It's that time of the year when all good* little munchkins wait up for Santa. Be careful . . . he may have a lot of treasure in that bag, but he's Level 12, and he has friends.
This package includes 15 new Munchkin cards, including Santa Claus himself, his scary friends, and some special holiday Treasures . . . all with extra shiny red and green decorations, which, as we all know, is the true meaning of Christmas. You'll have naughty/nice holiday fun, whether you use it only with the core Munchkin set or play with all the expansions you can get your hands on.
* Steve Jackson Games takes no responsibility for confusion of "good" in Munchkin with "good" in any reasonable context.
Waiting For Santa is a fin-seal pack. All packs contain the same 15 cards.
In the fall of 2009, we released two 15-card boosters for Munchkin: Fairy Dust and Waiting for Santa. We printed the cards with foil, which was definitely shiny but caused many of the cards to curl unacceptably. We recalled those sets as soon as we realized the problem was real . . . but a lot made it through to retail, and we know that some stores kept selling them even after we'd made the announcement and refunded the retailers' payments.
If you bought either of these sets from your local retailer, we encourage you to to return it to them for a refund or exchange. We have already refunded everything the distributors and retailers paid for these two sets, so we hope they will be happy to refund/exchange for you. If that doesn't work for you, OR if you got the Waiting for Santa booster as part of the Munchkin Holiday Edition, you may exchange the curly foil set for the new printing of the same set (not foiled, not curly) with us, via Warehouse 23.
Step 1: Cut the tops from each card in the pack. The top half inch (1.3cm) or so – enough to get the title of the card – is perfect.
Step 2: Mail the tops and your mailing address (don't assume we'll be able to read the return address on the envelope by the time it gets to us) to Warehouse 23.

Step 3: We'll mail out a replacement booster set via USPS. We'll throw in some Munchkin promo items, just to say "thank you."
