From the Australian set I have Norbrt, The Troll, Severus Snape and Hogwarts. From the first US set of 24 I have number 1 Adalbert Waffling if any one wants them.

I am trying to complete the US 2nd set of 12 and still need numbers  1 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 8 / 9 if anyone can help.

Why start a new thread when you can highjack a perfectly good one with the right subject? Cap'n

Does anyone have any idea just how RARE the Potter Family card is from the new packaging of the US Chocolate Frogs?  I opened 10 packs this weekend and didn't see one.  Makes the one for $19.95 on  Ebay! not look so bad...

A couple of weeks ago, a seller had that card with a $9.99 BIN.  I passed on it and have been kicking myself ever since. Roll Eyes

Well, the chocolate in these is barely suitable for human consumption so I'm not missing anything there.

I should get a list of these together as I would love to start trading for some of the non-US sets.

That's odd - who produces yours, I actually don't think the choccie in ours is half bad - which is a jolly good thing because they aren't cheap. Although to be fair I haven't had one of these in years Sad

Ours are made by CAP which is the candy division of the toy maker Hasbro.  They do lots of the gimmick candies you see in toy stores since Hasbro has the license for many of the toys.  A shame a real chocolate company isn't involved.

Ahh, we have a similarly awful gimmicky confection company in the UK - Kinnerton!

But our Choccie Frogs are made by Mars. Or at least they were when they first came out, I'll take a look next time I see one Grin

Whilst Mars is hardly Belgian choccie, the choccie frogs are very enjoyable all the same especially with a nice cup of tea

FTY you don't dunk it or anything - heaven forbid! But one eats chocolate and then one's pallete needs cleansing with a nice cup of tea.

I'll dig out my spare CF cards if anyone wants to get trading Grin

I didn't know these were such a big collectors item... I have a few lying around at home, but I gave up on collecting them as the chocolate wasn't all that nice Tongue

I am just a chocoholic!!!  Cheesy

But these cards are very nice.  I already did lots of trading in the past to get a full second set of US ones, and I still am missing a bit from the first set, but unfortuantely, I think I no longer have any duplicates......
