I Opened My Boxsome Card Today And Got Ebola From The Gum


DINOSAURS ATTACK! is a 1988 collector card series from Topps containing 55 cards and 11 Stickers. At that time there was a lot of interest in Dinosaurs and Brown and Gelman thought a blood and guts series like the old ones would be unusual enough to be successful again. But it never broke through as a card series in a big way. Just hard core collectors seemed to love them. The series was certainly inspired by Mars Attacks. When Tim Burton had Warner Bros. acquire the rights for the Mars Attacks film, they also bought the rights to Dinosaurs Attack.
