MT. LAUREL, N.J. – JULY
6, 2000 – Every year Star Trek trading cards gain popularity in the hobby
industry and this year is no different. Capitalizing on the hottest trends
in the industry, the new Profiles Edition of Star Trek is one of the most
innovative sets Fleer has ever developed.
The 82 card-basic set of Star Trek Profiles
is an interesting set because it highlights each character in a unique way,
and also tells a story. Profiles is a fitting name because the back of every
card displays a picture depicting a particular scene, and a story that goes
along with the picture. Also included on the back of each card is a quote
or a trivia question.
Autographics,
the leading autograph program in the hobby today returns and can be found
in Star Trek Profiles. All of your favorite characters are included in this
star-studded lineup – Captain Jean-Luc Picard, Commander William Riker, Captain
James Kirk, Doctor Beverly Crusher and Lietenant Commander Data are just a
few of the 19 autographs included in the collection.
The real highlight of Profiles is Star Threads, the insert that gives the
collector a chance to own a piece of Captain Picard’s actual uniform. Star
Threads are inserted throughout the set featuring an authentic piece of uniform
that was actually worn by Patrick Stewart on the show. Each card is sequentially
numbered to 2500 to ensure the authenticity of the card.
One of the unique insert sets available
in Star Trek Profiles is Alter Egos,
which portrays what happens when a character becomes someone else. Some of
the Alter Egos included are Captain Picard as Locutus in “Best of Both Worlds,”
Thomas Riker in “Second Chances,” and Data in “Masks.” These are only a few
of the nine different Alter Egos you will come across in this one-of-a-kind
insert set.
Another insert set included in Star Trek
Profiles is Q’s Quips, which is
a nine-card precision die-cut series with each card depicting a different
Quote from Q. Other inserts included in Profiles are First Contacts and Crossover
Characters.
If you are a Star Trek fan or just a
card collector you do not want to miss this fantastic set. Fleer offers the
most dynamic Star Trek set there has ever been, and it is now available in
10 card packs for $1.99 (SRP).
