There was eight cards (one with each box) and they had a dinosaur theme. Each card had a picture of a dinosaur but when you tilted the card to a certain angle it "changed" into it's supposed current day creature. eg a Triceratops changed into a hippo and a Wolly Mammoth changed into an Elephant etc

Any info on these items gratefully received.
