1993 SkyBox Aladdin trading cards offer up a straightforward look at the blockbuster. It also helped kick off a lengthy run of SkyBox sets highlighting various Disney animated movies.
1993 SkyBox Aladdin Checklist Details
The base set doesn’t offer a lot in the way of surprises. Comprised of 90 cards, it starts off by highlighting the lead characters. From there, it gets into the story, recapping key plot points, gags and moments. It might not have the same nostalgic feel as cracking open a plastic clamshell case, popping a tape in the VCR and sitting through 15 minutes of previews, but it is a convenient way of quickly scrolling through the adventures of Aladdin, Genie and the gang.
Towards the end of the checklist are some simple activity cards with things like word scrambles and basic crosswords.
The design for the main cards is simple but appropriate with a gold border on the front holding in a shot from the movie. Fronts have no text. Backs are purple with a tiled magic lamp running through them. A cropped version of the front image sits inside a gold flower on one side with brief write-up on the other.
1993 SkyBox Aladdin has just one insert set. Three Spectra cards each use textured foil to bring out the gold in the scene’s background. Landing 1:30 packs, boxes should have one with some getting two.
Over the next several years, SkyBox would continue to document Disney’s animated features including The Lion King, Pocahontas, The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Toy Story. SkyBox would also reach into Disney’s past including Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Cinderella.
SkyBox wasn’t the only company to do a set of Aladdin trading cards in 1993. Panini did one as well that also included stickers and coloring cards.
