2003 Comic Images Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines Checklist, Trading Cards Info

Ad

2003 Comic Images Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines trading cards are a lot like the movie that they’re based on. In a lot of regards, it’s a disappointment. That said, there are a couple of glimmers of coolness.

The 72-card base set starts with nine character cards. Other than a checklist at the end, the rest is dedicated to summarizing the film. Today, it’s not a bad way to get a refresher without having to sit through the entire movie again. Like a lot of Comic Images sets, the design is extremely basic with a full-bleed image on the front.

Autographs are inserted one per hobby box. The top card is, easily, Arnold Schwarzenegger. Also included is Kristanna Loken who played the film’s villain, T-X. These two are only in hobby packs. Others include director Jonathan Mostow and Stan Winston, who signed his cards on the back. Nick Stahl, who took over as John Connor, was given out as a case incentive and isn’t in packs.

Landing 1:96 hobby packs, it works out to 1:4 boxes. Retail packs also have Winston and Mostow but at even longer 1:144 pack odds.

T-Worn Costume cards are also in the product. The name is a little misleading as one of the three cards has upholstery from a hearse used in the movie. Costume cards land 1:58 packs.

The only other inserts in 2003 Comic Images Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines are six SkyNet War Machine Foil cards.
