November 19, 2011: The Rarest Munchkin Card?

Back in 2004, a Star Munchkin promo card called Heart of the Anomaly was given away to attendees at Linucon in Austin, Texas. The convention's guest was Wil Wheaton, and the card is more powerful if Wil signs it. Only a few were printed, and Munchkin fans are still clamoring for it. An (unsigned) copy is currently up for auction on eBay and the bidding is over $650! (The seller claims we don't have the right to reprint this card; we're not sure what he's talking about here, but unless Wil twisted our arm very hard, we wouldn't dream of reprinting it. It's part of Munchkin history!)

There's less than a week to go. If you're looking for the ultimate Christmas present for a Munchkin fan, this might be it!
