Remember those bubblegum cards from the '70's?

Well, I've come up with a couple of my own with a slight SciFi twist. There may be more as ideas pop into my head:

I remember those!
I still have a set packed away.
"Vile" soap. "Ditch boy" paint.
Great stuff! Spoofing well-known name brands.

I like your take. The guy with the cigarette on the "Narn Flakes"
is perfect! Really gives you an impression of what the product
is like.

Funny! :jest:

Thanks guys!

Yeah.... used to collect those... trade... and LAUGH for hours! This stuff is funny to some and not funny to others.

For the two I made, you have to be familiar with B5 to really get a good laugh. I'll probably cook up some stuff from the other franchises, too. I'm enjoy many different universes!

I have an instructor who has a complete uncut sheet of those framed in his office. He also has bunch of them made into magnets on his file cabinets.
