Damn! I'm such a sucker for trading cards but I don't think I'll be spending 50 clams just to get one of these.

Which curreny are you referring to? Turns out its just 25$ US, so buying any deluxe just about gets you a card.

Are those cards based on the original bio cards included with Japanese G1 figures? :shock:

I'm pretty sure. This is what google translate says:

" Transformers 2010" toy series with the supplied card the same format that began to be enclosed from the middle to the question (launched in 1986 ) , newly designed cards . Each card has the web's profile of one character worth .

The time launch of the original toy in this campaign characters and still did not come with a card , and lineup to center the character release did not at the time toy ! Same size size also , that are aligned with those of the time .
Stay tuned for future lineup announced !

Alrighty then. My mistake there. I still couldn't justify continuous spending like that right now. Six weeks til grad schools over. (*sigh* Let the job search continue!)

I'd rather pay for the cards out right. But they look good all the same.
