    I used to get these when they were free with comics years ago and grabbed a few more when I could. I came across them lately and I have maybe 300/400.

    Anyone know if there are books for holding them in i.e. like a photo album?

    Anyone else have these from back in the day?

    Yeah, most cities would have a gaming store/comic book store wher you could buy folders and 9-card sheets to store them in. If you can't get them there, search ebay for Ultra Pro. :)

    Like yourself 6th, I got started with them cause they were given away free on the cover of some comic (Essential X-Men, I think it was). And so began my years long obsession with those blasted cards! Actually, I think its about time I dusted them off and appreciated them a lil :D I must check if I've double for swap. Would anyone be interested, or has the time for such obsessions past?

    Ah it all starts off so innocently...a few free packets of cards than then that "complete the collection" instinct kicks in. That happened me in 1995 with a card game based on Star Trek. I still collect them :rolleyes: Honestly, I reckon a cocaine habit would have been cheaper :D
