In the 90’s, Full Moon Features produced packs of trading cards for many of our movie franchises, not just the most popular ones.  The cards featured characters from each movie on one side and a short bio on each character on the other.
Some cards featured “motion animation” that changed the image on the card when it was moved.  These cards also came with a stick of gum in each pack.
Both of these printings of Full Moon trading cards are rare today, so hold on to them if you can find them.  However, we wouldn’t recommend chewing the gum.
