card page

I added this page to help end the comfusion over different 
sets of Power Rangers cards. If you have any imformation 
thats not below feel free to let me know!


Series 1

Series 1 cards were released in 1994 and had 72 cards in the set
what makes it confusing is in each pack you got a foil bordered 
card so to complete the set you needed to get all the regualr 
cards and the foil set (hard to do) you would most likely complete
the basic set In one box (somtimes two sets) but it takes 4 or 5
boxes to complete the foil set. also each pack contained a P.O.G.
there was 10 pogs in all 5 were pictures of the power coins and the
other 5 were of the power morphers. there was no chase cards in this
set. The cards were packaged 8 cards per pack 36 packs per box(box
is purple) and they are no longer available

series 1 Box                series 1 8 card pack(with pog)


Series 2

Series 2 was again 72 cards and was a continuation of series 1
Hence the cards start at #73. As with series 1 there is also a 
foil set to complete (fun stuff) also this set has 12 magic 
morpher cards which are packaged 2 per box. You can complete a
full set of the base cards in one box (somtimes 2 sets) but it
will take 3 to 4 boxes to complete the foil cards set. The magic
morpher cards you would most likely need a entire case to get all
12 (I only have 2!). 8 cards per pack 36 packs per box these are
no longer available It was also released in 1994.

Series 2 Box (hobby)                 Series 2 pack (hobby)


Also series 2 was release twice the second release was the same
cards with red borders. The foil set also had different borders
as well! To my knowledge there was no chase cards in this version
of the set.To tell the difference between sets the boxes are 
different colours and the first set is labeled hobby and the red
bordered set is labeled retail. The red bordered set was also more
abundant to find ,so the yellow bordered are sought after by 
collectors. These were also released in 1994 and are also no longer
available


 

Series 2 (red)card 106        series 2 (red) foil card 106





The New Season

The third card set was entitled Power Rangers: The New Season
This set was again 72 cards (starting from 1) and had Yet another
foil set to collect (see series 1&2) This was one of my favorate 
sets. The first release of this set had no borders and was printed
on better card stock then the first 2 sets. This set Had 7 chase
cards which were plastic cover cards. These were released in 1994 
as well. this set was packaged 8 cards per pack with 1 foil card and
1 bonus card of the 3 new rangers (Adam,Aisha and Rocky) You could
complete a set in a box (somtimes 2) you will also have 4 million
bonus cards since there is only 3 different ones. The foil cards will
take from 3 to 4 boxes to complete and the plastic chase cards will
take 3 to 4 boxes as well. This set is no longer available.

 
New season card 12          New season foil card 12


Plastic card #7


The new season also had a second release. The second release had
large green borders and did not look as good as the first release
this sets foil borders were almost identicle to the red bordered 
release of series 2 hence alot of confusion. This has not been 
confirmed but 9 cards in the set did not have foil counterparts
cards 37-45. (if you have any information please let me know)
also this set had a new set of chase cards entitled the white ranger
series there were 8 of these (only missing 1) This set also had the
bonus cards of Aisha, Adam and Rocky. this version was also labeled
retail and was packaged in a red box witht the white ranger on the
cover (the first release was in a blue box labeled hobby) this set
is once again no longer available.

Power Rangers :The Movie

This is one of (if not the) best Power Ranger sets yet. This
set was released in 1995 by Fleer. The set is 150 cards (no foils!)
The cards are printed on very good card stock (even better then the
new season) and are of excellent quality The set has 3 types of
chase cards the first the power pop up cards are packed 1 per pack
and there is 24 different ones (fun to play with when your bored
Ivan Ooze:I'll get you rangers! Kim: go away) but anyway, the second
chase cards are holofoil cards which there is 12 different ones the
third and final chase cards are the 8 NinjaZord Holo foil cards 
These ones look really kewl!. the silver foil cards are packed 1
per 8 packs and the NinjaZord cards are packed 2 per box. This was
one set I was proud to complete after buying a case!) you will most
likly complete the basic set in 2 boxes (somtimes 3) the pop ups
you almost always get a full set in a box. I have completed the 
silver foil set in 1 box before, but that was luck so it will 
most likely take 2 boxes and the NinjaZord cards will take from 4
to 5 boxes to complete. The set was packed 8 cards per pack plus a 
Power Pop up card,it is possible to get all 3 chase cards in one 
pack (happened to me once in a case). If you only want to complete
1 set this is the best one to collect. This set is no longer available

CardZillion


The cardZillion cards were released by Bandai and were exclusive
to Toy's R Us. they were sold out of a funky machine that is normally
located by the exit of the store (good marketing ploy by the way)
The cards could be purchased for 25 cents a piece and the set was
42 cards with some cards being special hologram cards. This set
is one of the more difficult ones to complete since they were only
released in Toy's R Us. The cards also could be used to play a 
simple card game (nebver tried it though). the cards also had 
interesting text and storie lines on the back, one of my personal
favorate card sets to collect. These are nolonger available though
You may still be able to find them in a differnt Cardzillion Machine
(like masked rider or sailor moon) I personally am still missing
2 cards from the set (1& 2) so if (smile smile) any nice serfers 
out there have them (smile smile) you know what to do.



CardZillion Series 2

Cardzillion series 2 continued with #43 and was again a 42 card 
set. The set also had some foil cards and was based on the ninja
(third season) of power rangers This set is nolonger available 
but as with series 1 you might still be able to find it in odd
Cardzillion machines)




CardZillion series 3

Series 3 was the first set of Zeo, and to my knowledge was the only
set other then series 4 to have anything to do with Zeo (if you 
can correct me let me know) the set was again 42 cards with randomly
packed foil cards. This set is nolonger being shipped but is still
relativly easy to find.




Cardzilliion series 4


Series 4 continues the Zeo set at card #43, and again is 42 cards
with some foil cards as well. this set is no longer being shipped 
but is still very easy to find at most toys R Us



Cardzillion series 5

Series 5 is the first cardzillion series based on turbo and has yet
to be released. it is scheduled to be released this summer and is
not yet available




Power Rangers Turbo

This card set is a Kmart exclusive set and is a 60 card set with 
50 standard cards and 10 foil chase cards (randomly packed). This 
set I am a little disapointed with. Most of the cards are pictures
(drawn) of the rangers ,most of the cards are very similar ,there
is about 5 or 6 cards of each ranger in a different pose ,also
the set contains some pictures from the movie but sadly none of 
everyones favorate ex-Pink ranger, Kimberly plus no mention of Jason
either. The cards are packaged 8 cards to a pack and retail for about
1.15 a pack :this set is currently still available only at K-mart


CardZillion Power Ranger All Star cards


This is one of the hardest Card sets to find/complete (special
thanks to Cheryl Roberts for sending me some)From my sources
(Rygog) this set was randomly sent to a select few toy's R us's 
and thus was extremly hard to find any of at all! It was again 42
cards and had 7 or so cards dedicated to each ranger. It was a very
well done card set and if anyone can help me complete my set it 
would be apreciated (plus you get your name immortalized on my page)
as a neat bonus) This set is nolonger (sniff sniff) available



Power Rangers Sticker Albums


Well not quite cards these are kewl enough for me to put on my
page!


Power Rangers: series 2


In 1995 Merlin Collections released the Second Power rnagers sticker 
album which contained 196 stickers relating to the 2nd/third season of 
power rangers, this was a nicly done sticker album, the stickers were
origonally released in packets of 6, ,but were later released in larger 
packets which contained 5 of the smaller packets. These retailed for
roughly 35 cents per small packet and 1.99 for the larger ones
The Sticker album itself came with one of the larger packets, in fact
at the time I couldn't find any stickers at all so I purchased
6 or so of the albums just so I could have some of the stickers!
I still need a large number of stickers for mine (have doubles to trade)
and any help would be apreciated.
This set is nolonger available.




Power Rangers :The movie


again in 1995 Merlin Productions released a Sticker album for The
first power rangers movie. this set had 190 stikcers. The stickers
were again packaged in packets of 6 (no larger packets to my 
knowledge). The albums also contained no stickers. Though at some
stores you could get a combo pack of 1 album and a box of stickers
The box of stickers contained 50 of the stnadard packs ,which adds
up to alot of stickers! ,I have multiples of extra's if anyone 
out there in card land needs some.
This set is nolonger available

Special Power Ranger Cards


Released with some of the pr audio story tapes were special 
cards with the actors signatures they were packaged as foloows

1.on fins and needles: Tommy (green ranger) Trini and Jason
Plus a pic of the rangers together in the command center)
2.Island of (somthing something): Kimberly and three other cards
3.The White album : 4 card white ranger puzzle

On fins and needles + the rockumentary tapes were recently released
exclusivly at Kay-bee toys for 1.00 each, the others are currently no
longer available

Also exclusive to K-mart were Power ranger super packs #1 and #2
these packs each contain the same cards 1-12 and 1-24 and are really
poor cards since they are all reprints of cards from series 1-2
but the packs do each come with 5 pogs that I have not seen else-
where as well as each of the two preset packs has a foil card called
a blaster card of either the sho gun megazord or the white tiger zord
these are also still available in large quantitiies

also I have obtained a blue bordered double sided card (will scan
in at some point) from a friend, he said he got it from a box of
some form of snack food , if anyone can give me anymore info on 
these it would be apreciated.
