Originally using the same packaging technique that Asgard did. There are 3 general variations of what was printed on the cards, as they evolved over time:
Type 1) Range Name, Art representing the Range, Figure Code and Full Name, Price Code, Designer Info
Type 2) Range Name, Art representing the Range, Figure Code and Full Name, Price Code,
Type 3) Range Name, Art representing the Range, boxes where the Model Code and Price Code would be stamped.
There were two sizes to the bags. The Large bag had the same art (all but the Fantasy Tribes), just reformatted to fit the larger card.
