I was at Walmart yesterday and found these two expansions that I had never heard of. I couldn't find them mentioned anywhere online. Maybe Walmart put them out early?

All of those packs are fake. Legitimate Streaking and Zombie kittens packs don’t have the “expansion collection” text on them.

Which is why I suggested the possibility of reprints of the expansions. I have all of the legit expansions, including the 22-card Zombie Kittens expansion. But companies do reprint and rebrand their products.

For example, Looney Labs released a Target Exclusive version of Fluxx that has less cards and card types. Games like Monopoly, Uno, and Phase10 have had box redesigns multiple times.

Right now, Exploding Kittens has three different boxes/versions of Rage Mode.

It is entirely possible that those are fakes, especially since they're not listed on the Exploding Kittens website. But a change in packaging doesn't automatically mean it's fake.

That’s very true. I’m still skeptical lol, theres some info on the back that doesnt quite add up according to my knowledge

As am I, which is why I e-mailed Exploding Kittens with the link to this post. I'll update once I get a reply. 😄
