Warrior Cat Trading Cards [Info/Pics]

I've had a lot of people asking about Warrior Cats trading cards. How do you get them? What cats are there? Why is Tigerstar so pudgy and cute? Okay... not really that last question, but I bet now you're wondering that too.

I've posted about these cards before, but I think they're so awesome that they deserve another mention. So... what are exactly are Warriors trading cards? They are little cards that come with the purchase of most Chinese Warriors books. A different card with each book. Each series features cards with cats from that series. The cards released so far are...

Warriors - Original Series: Firepaw, Bluestar, Tallstar, Graystripe, Tigerstar, and ThunderClan.

Warriors - The New Prophecy: Brambleclaw, Feathertail, Leafpaw, Onewhisker, Crowfeather, and Hawkfrost.

Warriors - The Power of Three: Hollypaw, Jaypaw, Lionpaw, Blackstar, Squirrelflight, and Breezepelt.

So far, no Omen of the Stars cards have been released.

(All in order with books. Into the Wild - Firepaw. Forest of Secrets - Tallstar. Etc. Click on a cat's name to view their card.)

Feathertail's Card...

There are two ways to get your paws on these awesome cards.

1. Go directly to China to purchase the books with cards included.

2. Purchase them off this website.

Unfortunately both require that you speak Chinese - and if you are like me, utterly hopeless at trying to decipher the strange symbols, then you're out of luck. :( I've found no other places (in English) where you can buy the books with trading cards, or just the cards.

Do you think America should have Warriors trading cards?

Doesn't Tigerstar look all fluffy and hug-able in his card? :3

Chinese Twilight

The Chinese version of Warriors: Twilight has been released! You can view it on the left of this post. (Click for larger version) It features Crowfeather in the center. Midnight is also visible on the lower corner of the book.

Hmm...Crowfeather looks a little skinnier then I envisioned him. What do you think of the Chinese Twilight?

If you squint closely you can see a dark tabby with amber eyes at the top of the book. Could it be Brambleclaw?

What do you think of this Chinese book?

Ivypaw or Dovepaw?

For a long while have we been wondering who the Fourth Apprentice might be. Evidence supports the two siblings, Ivypaw and Dovepaw more then it does Breezepelt. (I believe the Erins even denied that Breezepelt was the Fourth Apprentice.) Which of the two is the apprentice with amazing abilities unmatched by any other?

Mistypelt discovered the cat on Fading Echoes is meant to be Ivypaw. However, the cat on the Fourth Apprentice is meant to be Dovepaw. So equally matched? Perhaps... It could mean the first book centers on Dovepaw--who may be the Fourth Apprentice. Then again, it could also mean Dovepaw dies allowing Ivypaw to unlock great power.

My theory is this... Ivypaw is named after Vicky's niece, Ivy. Vicky wouldn't want to kill of her niece's own character, would she? Maybe Ivypaw is to be the Fourth Apprentice...

Or...perhaps Dovepaw is the Fourth Apprentice and Ivypaw is her loyal sister who supports her all the way. (thats a bit boring though, don't you think?)

Keep those theories coming! Perhaps we can guess what happens before the actual book comes out!

Take a look at the updated Fourth Apprentice cover I found. It now has text on it. "Adventure Game & Full-Color Map Inside!"

Chinese ThunderClan

I've found pictures of Chinese Warrior cats! I personally love how the Chinese portray the Warriors. Hopefully you do too! Without further delay, please let me introduce you to the Chinese Warriors of ThunderClan!!

Strong and Noble Leader of ThunderClan...The first cat on the left is none other than...Bluestar! She's very different from the Bluestar pictured on Bluestar's Prophecy! The Chinese have given her a soft-silvery coat, splotched with white and highlighted with black. The swirls above her eyes make her look very mystic.

Fire Alone Will Save Our Clan...Okay, I bet you all know who this next one is. Fireheart! His signature flame-colored has tabby markings. He looks pretty much the same as he did in the American Books.

If It Shares Fireheart's Blood, It'll Make a Good Warrior... This next one is hard to guess. Its...Graystripe! He looks very different from his American Counterpart! This Chinese Graystripe sports a blue-gray fluffy pelt with tabby markings and yellow eyes. White splotches decorate his fur as well.

So there you have it, Chinese ThunderClan!

Do the Chinese Warriors look different then you where expecting? Do you like their looks?

Bluestar's Prophecy!

The time is looming ever closer for the second Super Edition, Bluestar's Prophecy, to be released. July 28th is when fans will finally be able to read this awesome book. (only a month away!!)

Have you noticed the little "Exclusive Manga Adventure Inside" button on the cover? This means that not only will Bluestar's Prophecy contain an glimpse of Bluestar's life, but it will also contain a manga! Cool! I wonder who its about? Perhaps it a Into the Wild manga? Who knows! That little button wasn't there before though. Hm...a last minute manga added?

I've seen a comment speculating that Leopardkit may turn out to be Leopardstar of RiverClan. ThunderClan and RiverClan do seem to have a habit of breaking the Warrior Code. (BluexOak, GrayxSilver...) And the two Clans seem to be friendlier with each other. So did Leopardkit grow up to be Leopardfur then leave for RiverClan? Possibly. We'll have to wait and find out. It would be an interesting twist if Leopardkit was Leopardstar, wouldn't it?

Are you looking foward to Bluestar's Prophecy? I am! Don't forget to check out the sneak peeks from Bluestar's Prophecy, available on my blog.

Check out this awesome picture! It portrays Bluestar perfectly!

Doesn't she look so regal and majestic?

Here it is, the picture of the Chinese Warriors card game. You can see fuzzy images of the other cards as well!

Chinese Trading Cards

For the die hard Warriors fan (that's all of us, right?) the Chinese have created a Warrior Cats Card Game. Yes, you read right, you can collect (foreign) Warrior Cats Trading Cards. Cool!

I'll post some pictures of the cards next. Pretty cool, right? If you buy a chinese Warrior Cat book, sometimes trading cards come with it.

The most of the cats look waaaaaaaaay different from the American/Canadian versions, though Brambleclaw looks pretty much the same. On the right you can see several cats from the Clans, Firestar, (ginger tom) Brambleclaw, (solid brown tabby with green eyes, next to Firestar on bottom) and Greystripe (fluffy grey cat besides Brambleclaw with yellow eyes, short ears and white chest.) are among the cats on the front of the trading card pack.

Pictures coming next!

Jayfeather Pictures!

I saw this picture the other day and thought it looked a lot like Jayfeather. What do you think?

I love this cat's eyes. They are a beautiful soft sky-blue, and the grey tabby pelt of this cat really complements the eyes.

Do you have any favorite pictures of the Warrior Cats?

-Sorrelpaw

Also, Warrior Cats news has been very slow lately. Not many new developments are happening...I think the Erins are up to something!

Ivykit & Dovekit pictures!

The upcoming series, Omen of the Stars will star Ivykit and Dovekit, two ThunderClan kits. For fun, I decided to post pictures of what I think they look like...

Dovekit,
