I found these in a box of old stuff from my childhood...

I can't even imagine how rare these are mint and unopened. The backs of the cards have a little hole to allow you to feel the softness of the ball. Over the last 30 years, this allowed some dust to get in there. Just blow out with compressed air.

Or open them like I did for the one I'm keeping. The vintage smell of youth that these provide is worth it!

I was gonna throw them on Ebay but I figured I'd check with you guys first.

$35 each, shipped.

I have one of these buried in storage somewhere. Cool story (bro) how I got it.

When I was around three or four years old, I was obsessed with Pac-Man. It was still a big thing at the time. Well, my parents took me out to this mall… The entrance was big and open, with shops on the bottom floor and a big escalator up to the second. For whatever reason, they went down a hallway to use the elevator instead. It comes down, the doors open, and the inside is just piled with these Pac-Man toys. Pac and ghosts, hundreds, covering the whole floor. My eyes get huge and I jump to the conclusion that all of these toys are now mine.

My parents and I didn't see eye to eye on this, however, so they went and found a responsible person to tell them about this elevator full of Pac-Man toys. I'm not real clear on what exactly they were all doing in there, but some guy came out to take care of it, and let me pick one to keep.

This is one of my earliest memories.
