R/C Trading Cards?

Post by LTO_Dave »

Can anyone help with locating a set of these R/C trading cards, or even help remember what they were called?

I can't remember if I saw them on here or google, but I can't seem to find any information on them. I thought they were called Legends of R/C and made by Topps, but my memory is foggy. I'm also thinking the borders on the cards were orange?

Sorry, wrong place...please move to OT. Thanks!

Ron at RC Plus in Salem, OR has a few boxes of them. I tried to buy one but he said they were for his retirement fund and would end up on ebay. If you cant find your answer, call em up. He is good people to talk to. I havent been down there in months, and i dont foresee it anytime soon

If we are thinking of the same card they were an advertisement thing Car Action did. Companies had to pay to have their stuff put on a card.

If I remember correctly we did the Lethal Weapon.

I was going to simply say "A Methuselah rookie card!", but then found this. Any other hardcore Simpsons fans will certainly get and enjoy this. Brilliant! :lol:

I posted these quick scans on my other thread, but thought some may not see it, so I'll drop them here as well.... just a few examples of some of the cards.
