Since Rockstar Games initially releasedRed Dead Redemption 2, players have been collecting important items from the game such as Dreamcatchers, Dinosaur Bones, Cigarette Cards, and more. OneRed Dead Redemption 2fan has collected the full set of Cigarette Cards from the game in real life, with 12 sets that form a whopping 144 cards.
Reddit user BlueBlueBiu recently showed off their collection of real-lifeRed Dead Redemption 2Cigarette Cards that are held carefully in plastic sleeves within a small binder. The in-game Cigarette Cards are found around the open world ofRed Dead Redemption 2, as well as inside premium smokes purchased at various shops in the bustling western towns. In order for players to complete the collection, they will have to speak to Phineas T. Ramsbottom at Flatneck Station inRed Dead Redemption 2Chapter 2, but BlueBlueBiu acquired his set from a mysterious fan of the game.

BlueBlueBiu shared a video of theirRed Dead Redemption 2cigarette card duplicatesas others have in the past, starting with the Gunslingers, then the Gems of Beauty, Stars of the Stage, Prominent Americans, the Artists set, the World’s Champions, American Flora, Cities and Scenery of America, American Fauna, and finally, Breeds of Horses. Unlike the historic counterparts inRed Dead Redemption 2, these cards are as fresh as if they’ve been pulled directly out of a pack of smokes before being preserved in the binder. Although BlueBlueBiu has stated that the cards are fan-made, they purchased the set from a fan who may have crafted them through a website called Taobao.
Just like the in-game version of theseRed Dead Redemption 2cards, the back of BlueBlueBiu’s cards - which isn’t highlighted in the video - has more information about the set like a real trading card might. Some of the rewards that players will receive for completing the in-game set of Cigarette Cards includeperfectRed Dead Redemption 2peltsand cash, Aged Pirate Rum, Gold Nuggets, and Valerian Root, but the completion of the set is a reward unto itself. BlueBlueBiu’s set lacks any duplicates unlike mostRed Dead Redemption 2players' experiences, but according to the response to their post, some fans may be happy to act as Fences for any cards.
WithRed Dead Onlinehaving been eulogized, some fans of the campaign may turn to collecting the full Cigarette Card set for themselves. Since posting theirRed Dead Redemption 2cigarette card replicas, many fans have expressed enthusiasm for the collection, with a handful of them offering money in exchange. OneRed Dead Redemption 2player suggested that BlueBlueBiu is from an alternate universe in whichRed Dead Redemptionis real, while another hinted that he purchased the items from Phineas T. Ramsbottom himself.
