Looks cracking!

Is the art work on the back the same as the Toltoys ones?

Its pretty close, but not quite. Toltoys have a Action man logos/text and not GI Joe ones. I did notice the copyright date was 1984 tho, wasn't V2 Snakes about 1987?

Thanks for that Gaz, I'm doing both raw and clean scans of the Toltoys cardbacks I have too. Any pref to file types?

I tend to just use jpeg and psd as a format for photoshop. I didn't take much notice on the copyright on the cardback, think i need to pay more attention to the finer details.

I do all my repro boxes and cards as PNG format as I was told that they don't lose quality.

I saved stuff as J-PEG in the past and had flaws and 'bleed' appear upon close examination.
