1979 O-Pee-Chee Moonraker trading cards are a small symbol of James Bond’s international appeal. The Canadian counterpart to the better known Topps set, it offers only slight differences. But for Bond completists, it’s a different release nonetheless.
1979 O-Pee-Chee Moonraker Checklist Details
The 99-card base set is the same size and setup as the Topps version. It takes the eleventh James Bond film — the fourth with Roger Moore in the lead — and recaps it. It’s not a complicated formula. In fact, it’s the one virtually every entertainment-based set used for a long time.
The blue-bordered layout is the same as is the mix of informative and puzzle piece backs.
So how do you tell O-Pee-Chee Moonraker trading cards from Topps? It’s actually easy.
Hailing from Canada, the text on O-Pee-Chee cards is in English and French. This carries over on both the front and the back. Another tell, but not quite as obvious unless you have them side by side, is the brighter card backs for OPC. This is something that is common on most of their trading cards and sports cards when compared to their American cousins.
Every pack of 1979 O-Pee-Chee Moonraker cards has one of 22 Stickers. These are also the same as Topps.
One other thing the O-Pee-Chee cards have going for them is rarity. It’s not that they’re scarce but the Topps Moonraker set is one of the most readily available of its era. For a 1970s OPC release, Moonraker is also easier to find than many sets but it’s still noticeably harder that Topps.
