Action Flipz
Information About this Set
The flipz are called Action Flipz because they're animated, containing two different
pictures and the one you see depends on which way you hold the card. They're like
the Lenticular cards from the second Dart Flip set, Prismatic. The 40 regular
cards, along with the 3D Chase cards, are printed on thick card stock with a
plastic top. The stickers, prism stickers, and silver-etched cards are made on a
much lighter and delicate paper. The cards all have similar backs, but in different
colors to distinguish the various parts of the set. You get one regular sticker
or chase card per pack. The album holds 144 cards back to back or 72 normally.
Lastly, even though it is pictured as such, the Gift Insert is not the same size
as the regular cards, I just didn't want to make a whole new picture for one item
(you can see the actual size in the chart below).

| Best Storage |
The collection binder is best as it comes with sheets perfectly fit to hold the cards. However, there are protective sheets that fit these cards perfectly well. The protective sheets you want to look for are sheets that hold 20 2" x 2" cards. These sheets are usually used to hold photo slides, pogs, or other small items. For the wrapper and gift insert, they will fit any standard size protective sheets that hold 9 standard size cards. You will have to fold the wrapper a bit, but it will not effect the overall picture. The box can be stored as is or it can be broken down and stored in a protective sheet that has one 8 ½" x 11" slot, this works for the binder bag as well. These are all available at BCW Supplies. |
