Quest for the Mask Card 197?

Recommended Posts

I have been a long time Bionicle fan, but only recently got into the Quest for the Masks TCG. I had a question for anyone that might be more experienced. Can anyone confirm the existence (or lack of) card 197? it's the last card i'm missing, however i can't find any information about it. Even the list/gallery found on brickshelf skips right from 196 to 198. Does anyone have this card, or have information about it simply not existing? Thanks for any help. I am very much interested in finding this card to complete my collection!

The card doesn't exist. I also had a complete collection at one point, except for 197. There were at least 3 other collectors in the same situation. We had a long discussion on the old forums (it is unfortunately deleted now), but we concluded that the card was simply never produced as none of us ever came across it, in person or online.

The card does exist, just not in first edition. I believe it was later released as a promo to make up for it not being released in first edition or something like that. I have a copy of the 2nd edition card. im not sure if i have a duplicate tho.

Can you scan it? As I mentioned, several collectors searched for it unsuccessfully. Screenguy in particular spent a lot of time looking. He was the resident QFTM expert, but he hasn't logged on in a few months. I'd love to finally see a picture of it and I bet others would too.

 

I ran a quick Google search and found a Mask of Destiny news story from 2005. The author (Mark) said he was unable to locate the card. There doesn't seem to be any other information available online regarding 197. It's a shame that the discussions from the old forum are gone.

It would be even better if you shared it in this topic, so OP can check it out too.

 

No problem. Will do it in a bit.

Thanks for the photo! It's really cool getting to actually see it. I know you said you dot think you have a second one, but if you did happen to have one, I'd love to buy it from you!

Hey, do any of you guys have the 6 Toa promo cards with the silver lettering? I only so far have Lewa, Gali and Onua. Do you guys know of any other QFTMs promo cards aside from the Toa cards with silver lettering and the few Bohrok swarm promo cards?

Once upon a time I bought a Toys-R-Us Bohrok store event pack.  It came with a bunch of krana, krana posters and promo cards.  As I recall, it had P1, P2 and P3 cards in sealed packs.  As I vaguely remember, they were Gahlok cards.  I can't promise that I can dig them out, but... would those be of interest?

 

We collected a bunch of the Quest for the Mask cards.  Wasn't there a missing Hau card?  "400"?

I would for sure be interested! 

 

As for the missing Hau card i believe that was card '66' which was a misprinted version of '177' but not as a foil card.

I would be very interested in the toa cards also if anyone happen to have any doubles.

Seconded. Was not aware that there were promo cards--very interested. Same with 197.
