1996 Topps DragonHeart Widevision

1996 Topps Dragonheart:  The movie Dragonheart was one I really enjoyed back in the day.  This movie got the widevision treatment in 1996 and I'm glad it did.  This is a great shot of Draco.

Here we have Dennis Quaid who played the main character, Bowen.  The fronts are great.  It's very simple and plenty of room for screen grabs.  I really like this photo.

Hard to tell but these are the scales of Draco, voiced by Sean Connery.  Really good cast in this movie.

In 1996, the graphics were a big win.  We hadn't seen dragons look this good and he was a main character you saw plenty of whether it was in the distance or close up.

There were a total of 6 cards in this pack.

I really like the backs which give us a storyboard and details on the photo we see.

I like this card even though I'm not sure why it's so blurry.  Maybe it was on promo materials?  Don't know.  But these were still a fun trip down memory lane.
  

1995 Topps Widevision Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back

Empire Strikes Back Widevision:  Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back was released 24 years ago on this day.  It's still one of my favorite Star Wars movies if not my favorite.  It really took the story to new places and new levels.  This poster card is a favorite of mine.

Widevision is a favorite of mine.  I enjoy getting an entire photo as opposed to a smaller or cropped version of what we actually see on the screen.

The backs are great with a synopsis of the front photo and behind the scenes information including a different photo or art.

There are 144 cards in the set.  The majority of mine focus on Hoth but that's okay.  It was a favorite part of the movie for me.  But I really wanted to see a good AT-AT photo.  

I do own this set but widevision work well as bookmarks, so I don't hesitate to grab a pack when it is a good deal.  There are nine cards in each pack.

Another great photo.  I think they did a good job selecting scenes to step you through the movie.  For big Star Wars fans like me it's a fun opportunity to revisit all the great characters and moments that hooked us so many years ago.
