1996 Skybox Hunchback of Notre Dame

I actually thought I had posted a pack of these before, but can't seem to find the post. Welp, that's a good sign to post this pack of movie tie-ins.  The difference here: ACTIVITIES!


In this first group, there are two cards on which kiddos can color!  This is only, what, about 15 years BEFORE Topps started doing Sketch cards?


If coloring isn't your thing, how about card-stacking?  Yeap, collect all the cards and build your own tower!


Building not your thing, either?  Well, then, how about a puppet show or some coinage?  Yeap, we have coins you can punch out or we have finger puppets you can play with.  Awesome old school interactivity!

1995 Fleer Batman Forever


I remember Fleer.  Do you?  The good ol' days, eh...


How about a couple of Jim Carrey shots, showing a varied range of emotions:


He went to the Danger Zone....

1992 Upper Deck Comic Bowl IV

Upper Deck did a series of baseball cards with Looney Tunes characters, so why not parallel that with football?  Here, I busted open a couple packs of the ComicBowl IV packs:

1992 Food Lion Richard Petty 3-Card Pack

1992 Skybox Star Trek Season Five Episodes

For as big of a computer nerd as I am, I never got into the whole Star Trek thing. So, other than seeing some actors I recognize, I don't know anything about anything going on here.  Oh, and the Sela card  (er, the 2nd Sela card) is embossed. That's actually kinda cool.

1992 Pro Set The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles

Another pack of these was posted previously, but since I decided to bust all my non-sport wax on MLK Day, here is another look at cards from this set:


The cards below feature some cool diversions: a set os 3d glasses and a 3d card to go with them and a treasure hunter card (the large foldout) with items listed on the back to find.


Since the fronts of the cards only showed stills, I thought I would show the backs:

1992 Champs Vintage Cycles


I don't know anything about motorcycles, but looking through a pack of vintage bikes brought on a nostalgia I didn't even know I had.  Very cool stuff!

1990 Topps Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Movie Cards


You remember these guys, right?  Yeah, the "old" TMNT movie that your parents probably saw.  Wait. No, no they would have been around to SEE it, but no one saw it.  Well, a bunch of kids, maybe.  Where was I? Well, this movie came out back in '90 or '89.  Either way, Topps was really into movie tie-ins then.
