Moshi Monsters Egg Hunt Series 1 Trading Cards

In the tradition of Pokémon, you've gotta collect 'em all! Each pack contains 8 cards, Moshlings and an ultra rare card. In all there are an amazing 350 cards to collect and unlike standard collectors cards, these have something unique about them I would like to point out.

On some cards there are ones like 60 Nox, Disco Lights and Tiki Trees that have a reverse side to them where you can scratch ''em to hatch 'em. This involves downloading the game, tapping the icon and scratching the silver off the back to scan the card if you want to scratch or swap.

I got one card in my pack that had a piece of an image, on the reverse side there is an image separated into 18 parts and the part of the card I have is a highlighted square in red which forms part of the overall image. To complete the picture, you have to collect 17 cards so the hunt will be on.

At least 8 Moshi Monsters are in my card: (No. 27). Cards like Furnando (No. 269) and HipHop (No. 318) have likes/dislikes and a Moshling Power along with an ultra rare card. Mine was General Fuzuki with a Moshling Power of 75 and a scratch or swap option on the reverse side. General Fuzuki is a samurai wielding his sword, looking like he is running toward you. His likes are shiny objects and comfy cushions and dislikes alarm clocks and bits of food in beards. The ultra rare cards, unlike normal ones are shiny foil ones that are colorful and striking.

My 60 Rox shows a large gem in the centre with other gems all around it. The Rox cards are for buying monsterific goods for the Moshlings in the online store. This is more than just a card game, it is a whole new way to have fun with the online option to unlock more Moshlings and items for the Moshlings.

What I like most about Moshi Monsters Egg Hunt Series 1 is how colourful the cards are and how cute the Moshi Monsters characters are. I would be interested in finding the other ones to make up the set as there is a definite reason for wanting to collect all the cards and a motivation for unlocking what the cards offer.
