It does seems that most of these cards that you see are in good condition.

That's a lovely condition card there without much yellowing on the bubble either

Yes, there are a lot of good condition Rombas out there, and I think that's probably because it's also one of the commonest POTF MOCs to be had. There's certainly a hell of a lot more of them than there are Luke Stormtroopers and Pop-Up R2-D2s!

Just this little fella for me

thanks for sharing the picture, a nice mint romba

I’ve never noticed that before, thanks for pointing that out.

What the fuck I have also never noticed that before

I know, it's one of those really weird ones! It's something you think you should spot immediately, but loads of people don't

And to round out Kenner's incompetence, the Tri-Logo Paploo card shows Romba!

looks like I learned something new again today I only thought it was 4lom and zuckuss that there was an error with

Nice collection! My own POTF Romba used to look just like these (I'm guessing this is an old photo?) with a perfectly crystal clear bubble. I even have a photograph of it before it went into storage, out of sunlight in a dry, cool environment. Years later when I removed it to display it, BANG! Badly browned / yellowed blister, just like almost every other POTF card . I don't know what kind of cheap and nasty plastic Kenner were using for those things, but the best I can say about it is that they were pretty consistent with its usage across the POTF range!

That pic was taken late 2016. I was lucky enough to pick up a almost full case of them, all with clear bubbles

sounds like a fantastic lot of moc that you picked up in 2016

Thanks, yes this one does appear to have survived the “yellow bubble plague” reasonably well.

Lars: Thanks for this Toy of the Week idea, I think that I have learnt something new out of every one.

I am glad you like it and that you can learn something from it
