Couple of shout outs to Super7

Smogun vs. Smogun art by Joshua Herbolsheimer for the release of the second S7 x Gargamel Smogun (pink Hawaii scheme.)
Image

Nice surprise on release day ... the line art inside the header card!
Image

Unforgettable ... the art for the release of the Gargamel x Super7 "Ava" mini-Hedoran celebrating the birth of a daughter to Brian Flynn and Dora Drimalas.
Image

The pink and blue background makes me wonder if the toy would have been translucent blue if the baby had been a boy? 8) Cool detail for geeky nerds ... the binary code indicates Ava's date of birth.

This is actually a metal advertising sign that packaged middle-size Bullmarks were hung from.

Irutan header and backing card

Front and back of Marusan original (left) and Osato Toys (right) finger puppet headers.

Some headers and a backing card from Marushin dinos. I like that they used unique headers for each dino in the series.

I love the vintage-style header cards. Elegab's are terrific, same with M1go. Here's a few scans I just made, not all are headers (I LOVE the Toxic Phantom cereal box):

Thanks for posting more of your photos Mark, sorry I forgot where that came from. I had a collection from the internet for the artist to reference when he did the Greasebat card, that was one of them.
