    The Many Simpsons Trading Cards

    Any Simpsons trading card collectors in the house (forums)? If so, what sets do you have?

    After the DVDs, books and comics, the many trading card collections would have to be my favorite Simpsons collectables. Easy to find, affordable, they take up little space and they're full of great original art and the writing is hilarious (on most collections). I got into them in the early '90's with the brilliant Skybox series one cards. I then went back and bought the Topps collection and got into series 2 of the Skybox cards. From there I've collected a few more sets and recently picked up Downunder and Simpsons Mania.

    Here are the sets that I know of, if I missed any let me know.

    That's it.

Then I decided to sign up.

    The Simpsons Anniversary Celebration set was a real letdown. Probably my least favorite set. All the art was recycled stock art, there was hardly anything to read, and what was written was pretty dry. Nothing funny or revealing. The great moments in Simpsons history cards featured tiny screengrabs and for some of the cards they didnt even have art from what the card was about. Like the "Do the Bartman" card had the same late 90's stock art of Bart used twice, it had nothing to do with the song or the music video.

    I think the card sets company knew this, because Simpsons Mania was released by them two years later and it was a huge improvement. In fact, I wasn't even aware of Simpsons Mania until yesterday. I was even more surprised to learn that it was essentially a third series of the Skybox cards.

    Only downside: Lenny has a character card, but Carl does not. Mr. Pinchy, Mojo and the SNPP duck got cards before Carl. :P
