Trading Card Questions


T.B.O.C

Recommended Posts

For those who aren't familiar with the subject, BIONICLE had promotional trading cards way back when. Although after 2002 they tapered off and vanished, 2001 (mainly) and 2002 had cards.

 

My question though, did the three deck sets cover all of the cards (besides the Rahi Challenge extension) for the 2001 card series? Likewise, did the three decks of 2002 constitute the whole line, or was the Beware the Swarm McDonalds promotion another set of cards to obtain? I've been thinking about buying some decks and I was wondering. BS01 offered some insight, but I was wondering if anyone else here knew. Thank you!

As proud owner of all Three Mata decks, and nothing else, I can tell you that The Mata decks did not contain all of the 01 cards between them. In fact apart from the character specifec cards (mask, turaga, etc) all three decks were identicle with a lot of doubles. Many cards including all foil variants could only be obtained via booster packs.

 

There was also a separate promotion for the foil character cards.

The Rahi cards I belive were a separate set of booster packs to the regular Qftm packs

The bohrok, as I understand follow the same rules as Qftm with the Maccas cards being intended for a uniqu version of the game and therefore exclusive to their own promotion

I have the McDonalds trading card game from when I was in America 12 years ago. Pretty cool stuff. 

 

I don't know if I can answer your question, but this topic has me thinking... any Bionicle card collectors out there?

I'm thinking about starting! I have a few older ones from the Beware the Bohrok McD's promo and the idea sounds like fun.

I was a collector and in fact collected all of the regular Quest for the Masks trading cards in 2001 and almost 3 quarters of the special silver cards and bonus rewards cards:

Would you say it's hard to collect all of them then? I've been thinking about starting for fun, but I don't want to launch into an impossible endeavor.

This post belongs in the Buy/Sell/Trade topic. 

There were Bionicle Trading Cards?

Yep, Bionicle hopped on the Trading Card Game bandwagon after Pokemon and Yugioh proved to be extremely popular. 

If you like Pingu & want to support a good project, click here. Also, I've rejoined the BZPRPG & I have a new profile for a new game. Click here to see it.

So why did Bonkle trading cards stop and not go into Metru, Inika, Barraki, etc?

Do you still have it? If so, can you confirm whether card 197 exists? I have been looking everywhere for it, but can't even find a photo...even an online gallery i found skips right from 196 to 198...

The general consensus is that 197 was never printed - I've yet to meet a single person that has one. Same goes for the tournament prize cards (T1 and T2) - they're advertised on tournament posters, but if they actually exist, no owners have come forward.

believe victims. its actually not that hard, and youd look kind of bad if you were to, say, side with an abuser because theyre your friend
