Hi Piko,

That's weird. I don't know about that one. I thought it might be the cards that were inserted with figures but the number of cards and the numbering is wrong. The show was on TV in 2002 and the movie came out a few years after that. I would've guessed around 2010.

If it's not a fan club set, it might be a theater giveaway to some special screening to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the release of the movie. You might try contacting a club and any of the big fans of the show to see if anyone has heard of it.

Yes the movie was 2010 and the cards mention Universal Studios and the date.
But I have searched every where and can not find any mention of them anywhere.I did not purposely buy them did not even realise that they were in a bulk lot of Promo/Preview sets that I purchased.I will go back to the seller and try and find out any thing about them

I've bought lots too and have been surprised by a few cards I haven't seen before. Almost every time I ask a seller about their cards, they have no idea where they came from even when they are ones who collected them.

I've had a vague memory of another set like this being discussed before but couldn't say what, when or where. A few minutes ago, I ran across this (thread goes on to mention the Serenity set):

Regarding the Serenity set, I have been in contact with the seller and for the lif of him he can not remember were he got the set and anything about it .
Back to the Seeker set very nice I see that it has the Disneyland 1 ABC Television written in the top right corner so the two sets seem to be by two different studios.
This could indicate that they were movie release products
But dont know and dont want to speculate,I am sure something will come up in the future just like this enquiry led to the seeker one coming up

A Serenity set was sold last week on the Bay $35.
I emailed the seller and his reply was did not have a clue they were his Grandfathers and that is all he knew.
So missed out on info again
