This partnership was included in a section of the magazine called “Topps in the Field: News From Around The Collecting World” and shared the page with a few words about Topps’ partnership with Bazooka and Nintendo Systems Base Wars game.

The promotion must have been successful because a second Series was eventually released, making the set a total of 72 approximately one-fourth-scale cards.
