1995 Donruss Ace Venture: When Nature Calls trading cards probably came along one movie too late. The original helped launch Jim Carrey to superstardom. It was also a surprise box office smash so there wasn’t much in the way of merch to go with it. Fast forward a year and the movie suits were ready to cash in. The problem was, the movie was pretty forgettable. The cards were, too, although there’s some definite nostalgic appeal today.
1995 Donruss Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls Checklist Details
The 90-card base set isn’t purely a sequel recap. In fact, the first 18 cards go back to the original and offer up a condensed look at what got the franchise started. Then nine Character cards follow. Finally, When Nature Calls comes calling at card #28 and runs for most of the remaining checklist slots.
The set also has ten Static Cling Ace-isms. Printed as plastic stickers that can be applied to mirrors and windows, peeled off and moved elsewhere, each has a different quote. Although they land one per pack, they’re not overly short printed when you compare numbers for the rest of the base set.
Two additional insert sets round out the 1995 Donruss Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls checklist. Nine Embossed Foil cards combine to land 1:4 packs, no matter the type. Holographic Foil cards are only in hobby packs, also with 1:4 pack odds.
A total of 4,000 hobby boxes were produced. These have a numbered sticker on top. You can also confirm by looking on the bottom of the box. If it notes the Holographic inserts, it’s hobby. If it doesn’t, it’s retail.
