Dinosaurs Attack!

Anyone here collect there?
This was my favorite set, and for whatever reason card #8 always stood out in my mind.

Mars Attacks was better.

But in all seriousness I was bigger into GPK and Wacky Packages because stickers rule (although I never really peeled them).

Awesome. Now this I like. Gory and Kitsch. The artist shows great qualities of satire. Were these intended as trading cards for children? And when were they published?

I remember buying these every week at Odd (Big) Lots when I was a kid. I'd talk my Dad into buying a pack or two every time we went.

I haven't seen these in over 10 years, awesome site.

Yup, for kids, i forget how gory these things were, it was 1988. Good stuff, well worth purchasing. i don't remember how many of my hard earned quarters i blew on these things.

These are awesome. I had never seen these before, and I probably would have been too young to catch them, but the Mars Attacks reissue in the 90s hit when I was 10 or so, and I absolutely loved them. It makes me wonder if there's any market today for new trading card series that aren't attached to games... I can remember swapping tons of Marvel trading cards when I was little, the ones that made up 9 card pictures that'd fill a whole binder page were the absolute best.

Yea I think those were the Bagley Spider Man cards. I still have a few binders with those and the Marvel Universe III series (which were my favorite with all the stats on the back).

GPK are still the best. Some wicked shit on those.
