Two Hobby boxes, acquired and opened at different times. Also produced were "value packs" (22 cards/pack) that held an exclusive "Key Roles" insert set; and three different collector tins, with two insert sets there.

Inkworks produced the set primarily for USA distribution, but Panini is the only name shown on the cards, with Inkworks crediting themselves in the packaging. The only date shown on the cards is the copyright 2002 Masashi Kishimoto.

These are nice-looking cards with foiled highlights on 72 base cards and 36 full-foil base cards. From a Hobby box, expect 1.93 base sets if collation were perfect.
