I finally got my 2 Cartney's & Prince Wheeliam in the mail today. Being openers I feel a little bit sad opening them since they are on international card back. But it's exciting to finally have them =)

I received a great package from my friend gipsy yesterday... 2 Chase Prince Wheeliam on international cardback... I won't feel sad at all opening one of them... in addition to a large and fairly thorough US cardback collection, I have a fairly extensive collection of international cardback Cars as well... not that that surprises anybody... I'll add a photo later.

Great package, OzzieMum... I don't have an international carded Cartney Brakin yet... I tell myself I don't need one... but I don't listen to me... because I want one... and eventually I will probably trade for one.

Sounds awesome cac1959. I only feel sad for the collectors of international card backs...but just a little =). Considering it was difficult to get these even on US cardback im happy just to have them! i only have Prince, Cartney, Taia & Taco Mater on international. All will be opened (except my spares - was cheaper to buy multiples to reduce shipping costs!). Can't wait to see pics!

very nice Chris! I have a international carded Prince as well. I don't collect blisters so it will be opened lol. He is one of my favourite cars. I love the faded/ghost effect of the Union jack on him.
