VeeFriends Series 2 has been a highly anticipated release, with a lot of excitement from the community to see and collect all 251 characters in their new and evolved form. With a total of 55,555 unique one of one NFTs, we hope that many will be able to enjoy the Series 2 characters, in their unique qualities, poses, and scenes and join the continued creation of the VeeFriends universe.

Since the Series 1 launch in May 2021, VeeFriends' creator Gary Vaynerchuk has explored ways to bring the VeeFriends characters to life in both the digital and physical world. It is important that while Gary and VeeFriends develop the IP of all the VeeFriends NFTs, people can enjoy and collect the characters in many different forms and mediums.

We are thrilled to announce that the utility for VeeFriends Series 2 is a free box of collectible trading cards in partnership with zerocool called VeeFriends "Compete and Collect" Trading Cards. Original purchasers of Series 2 NFTs will have the electable option upon purchase to receive one box for every NFT minted for no additional cost. We are also pleased and excited to include international shipping for the product as well!

UPDATE: Please reference the most recent announcements and shipping details that we have been sharing post-mint HERE!

Whether you are claiming through your Series 1 VeeFriends, the Friends List, Public Mint, or Burning for any of the 15 New Characters, all 55,555 mints are eligible to claim a box of VeeFriends "Compete and Collect" Trading Cards. The ability to claim a box will only be available during the primary purchase of a VeeFriends Series 2 NFT. For example, if you claim 7 Friends List mints, you can also claim those 7 boxes at the same time. The same goes for Series 1 VeeFriends claim.

PLEASE NOTE: This is the ONLY CHANCE you will have to claim the VeeFriends "Compete and Collect" Trading Cards. Once you complete the order and forgo the box, you cannot go back and claim again.

The boxes consist of 52 random collectible VeeFriends cards that are playable as a card game called VeeFriends Compete and Collect!

How do you play VeeFriends Compete and Collect?

The goal of the trading card game is to collect as many of the VeeFriends collectible cards as possible! Every VeeFriends character has a total SCORE made up of their AURA, SKILL, and STAMINA. Based on the card's rarity, there is a multiplier applied to create their total score.

To begin, two players prepare for gameplay with an equal amount of their own cards. Players will battle head-to-head with their cards, flipping them over one by one. The player with the highest character score wins and takes (for good!) the other player's card.

In the event of a tie, first, each player places three cards face down, then at the same time puts a fourth card face up. The player with the highest face-up card wins every card from that round. If there is another tie, repeat the previous process until there is a winner. The winner takes all cards from that round.

Before We Show What's Inside...Let's Talk About the Box Designs!

There are 15 total different packaging possibilities for the box; 5 designs in 3 colors each. These box designs also have different rarities. This is just an extra layer of added fun as the box packaging has no correlation to the 52 cards inside the box! Please note, that these boxes will be randomly selected during fulfillment.

What's in a Box?

VeeFriends Series 2 Collectible trading cards feature 251 characters in their Series 2 form.

Note: There will only be 555 Gift Goat cards in the entire set! Just like the NFTs, these cards will have alternating poses! Good luck finding one!

Each box contains 52 total random cards: 13 packs with 4 cards in each.

Every character will have different rarities marked by background colors:

• Yellow (Core) - tiered distribution of characters meaning some characters are harder to find than others.

• Brown (Rare) - Limited 500 per character

• Orange (Very Rare) - Limited 100 per character

• Green (Epic) - Limited 25 per character

And of course, there are special foil 1/1 spectacular cards for each of the 250 Series 2 characters (besides Gift Goat!) to compete and collect with! The 6 spectacular types per character are Lava, Gold, Bubble Gum, Hologram, Diamond, and the new Series 2 Spectacular, Emerald!

Here's a preview with the only perfect 75 score in the game, Perfect Persian Cat!

There are also special insert cards for each character in their original Series 1 **** artwork limited to 5 per character.

Additionally, there will be 1/1 Gary Vaynerchuk hand-signed cards for each of the 250 Series 2 characters.

Boxes will begin shipping the week of May 16th, around when the Series 2 NFT release has concluded.
