What is this 11 card expansion?

Not an expansion, I believe.
It's 11 promo cards.
They're now very hard to get hold of.
As for Space Penguin, it doesn't come with Evolution cards because it's really a promo: we want it to be a cool bonus monster you're happy to get your hands on, without the people who don't feeling they're missing game-changing contents. I hope everyone understand this.
And I hope everyone understands why I sold my copy and will refuse to buy any jello products in the future
Because you and Rick are a pair of self-entitled yutz? Seriously...it's a piece of cardboard, nothing "special" (eg artist signature, numbered collectible, etc). Christ, if you're THAT worried about it, get someone to scan it and send the file to you - then print your own.
My friends dragged me over to the booth to play the game; I was barely interested but played anyway because they hyped it so much. I happen to win the space penguin. Decided the game just didn't scratch any itches for me (sorry Stephan). Twenty minutes later I handed the thing to the couple I played with (who had bought the game). I figured if I ever wanted it (again) I could likely get it at the BGG Store. Turns out I can't. Oh darn... Made my friends' day AND had one less thing to carry around the Con.
The promo did exactly what it was intended to do - I *almost* bought the game just because of having won it. But, as I said, it just wasn't for me. Yeah, we all like to have every little thing for every game we own, but you know what...ya can't, so put on your big boy pants and get over it.
