1990 Pacific Total Recall is one of the era’s more creative set of movie-based trading cards. It’s not flashy but it includes some extras that go beyond cards but still fit with the product. Surprisingly, it’s also notable for being the first Arnold Schwarzenegger movie to be featured in a set of trading cards.
1990 Pacific Total Recall Checklist Details
The 1990 Pacific Total Recall checklist starts with a 110-card base set. It runs through the sci-fi blockbuster about Mars, memories and macho mayhem. Schwarzenegger stars as the film’s lead, Quaid. Sharon Stone also has a key role. Card #110, which spotlights Schwarzenegger can command a premium as many consider it to be similar to a rookie card on the sports side of the hobby.
The black-bordered design is perfectly acceptable but it’s not all that memorable. The star accents may remind some of 1977 Topps Star Wars, but the celestial outline is where the similarities end.
1990 Pacific Total Recall was only distributed as a factory set, not via traditional packs and boxes. Each set came with a few extras as well that weren’t cards including Mars currency, a couple of pamphlets, a shuttle ticket and an “official” Mars rock (which is not actually a rock from Mars).
