So it isn't a prototype.
Man why didn't they just put the picture on the card.If I was Canadian I would be upset to get such a half done item.I thought I had a prototype I am really upset now.
Thanks guys for the help though

They don't put a picture on it to save money.... and as for the quality.... it is sad, but we're used to it. Though we are super pleased to be getting some joe stuff at retail !!!!

Besides, I think that the artless cards make a unique item for ones collection.

I am planning on keepin mine MOC... and getting another CG so its on card.

Oh I agree it is neat to have,but I was told it was a prototype and I didn't do enough research I guess.Oh well

I have seen a lot of these "prototype" figures on ebay. Isn't it fraud or misrepresentation to label them as something they aren't?


Anyway, I saw a Snake Eyes Canuck fig go for nearly $30. For a split second I though about listing my canuck card figs, but I couldn't scam someone like that and taint my passion with the misery of others.

What is the science behind having card art verses no card art for the Canadians?? I don't get it. Someone explain it to me.

Habro will more then likely use the excuse of "need to have trilingual packaging" , but this never stopped Box art and Tech Cards on the back in the 80's.

I think it's just plain old, let's cut a corner and screw around with the fans.

DCompose, that was AWESOME!!!!

Remember this packaging change probably has more to do with Hasbro Canada than US Hasbro. Maybe Hasbro Canada just wanted to take the lazy route with only one cardback.

And yes, those cardbacks are rather blah.
