Bob Heffner's Dinosaurs Attacks! Homepage
In 1988 there was a lot of interest in Dinosaurs and Topps thought another blood and guts series would be unusual enough to be successful again. But it never broke through as a card series in a big way. Just hard core collectors seemed to love them. The best Dinosaurs Attack! site (even if it _is_ mine).

In-depth articles cover everything from the hottest new movie card sets to the classic sets of years gone by (including Mars Attacks!) to industry insights.
