Collector's Corner Vol. 01: Rockman X Mega Mission Jumbo Carddass

Released back in 1995, this set of nine "Jumbo Carddass" cards provide a little bit of supplemental information and new artwork to first Rockman X Mega Mission Carddass series that were also released in the same year. Here's your best look yet at these nostalgic treasures...

Size comparison between Jumbo and Normal Carddass.

As you can guess from the name "Jumbo", these are over sized cards. They're four times the size of a normal Carddass. This particular set was the third time Bandai released Jumbo-sized cards for their Rockman Carddass series. They previously released two prism Carddass: one for Rockman 4 and one for Rockman 5. Sometime later, they also released a set of nine cards with a mix of art from Rockman X1 and X2 . And finally, in 1996, they released the "Chip Shooter" Rockman X Jumbo Carddass.

Aquiring a complete set may prove to be difficult and expensive today, but if you can't find them or afford them, you can always take a look at these scans we have below!

As you can see, some of the cards have a little bit of supplemental information and thanks to Number 20 from The Reploid Research Lavatory, we can provide an English translation:
