Just for fun, a what would you do scenario featuring the Mountain Boys!

Oh, I love the earlier UK art. I love all G1 art but something about the UK art from this era really stands out.

Since Rapunzel is not on my wish list but MBs are, would definitely go for them.  I think Tornado (I call him Twister) with pink hair is my grail right now.  I only have Lightning and Ice Crystal.

Lightning! You lucky person. I wanted him so bad as a kid, but I never saw him in the stores. Which means I've never seen him MOC because right now not a single one is known to exist. Sigh...

It's not quite a scan (and I can't scan the front anyway as the card still has the bubble attached, lol) but how is this??

Good enough for the time being?? Feel free to save but not share/reupload please. xD

I am biased but IMO the cards from the UK in 1987 are the nicest G1 cards of all of them.

The factfile stories for this set are also the backcard stories if Tornado is anything to go by. I am looking for the other cards too *hint* but this one came in a lot of old packages and I'm sure that it was this package that pushed the price up. But it is in such nice condition because the bubble is there and you can see all of the art, so I guess I'll settle xD.

Re Rapunzel - her price has been regularly around $1000 for quite a while now. The rationale behind it eludes me. Mine cost me 50p essentially, as I traded for her - but as you can probably tell, she's damaged xd. Still, I'm happy with my 50p Rapunzel and don't feel the need to bankrupt myself for her.

If I won the lottery and could buy one $1000 pony, it'd be MOC Sunburst. I had him when my sister was born so he was special to both of us and since the other two I had as a kid also don't seem to exist MOC any more...LOL xD.

I love that card.    It instantly became one of my favorite backcards.
