Cool Cards: Alf, His Life and Times and Bouillabaseball


Was there any property in the 80's that Topps didn't make into cards? The cards above are from a 1987 Alf series. I was a huge Alf fan as a kid, but considering I only have a few of these cards it doesn't seem like I was a fan of the Alf card concept (which also means I don't know all that much about the card series).

I'm not quite sure if Bouillabaseball was brought up in the show or not. It's a pretty fun idea, though. If the packs consisted solely of Melmacian sports players, I probably would have loved these cards.

My brother was obsessed with the Bouillabaseball cards. If memory serves, they were less common in the packs, meaning I had a ton of these cards at one point. Wonder if they are still around...

I remember watching the cartoon, the tv show, the movie, and getting a hug from a guy in an Alf costume, but not the cards. :D Me and my bro even had all those Alf hand puppets with the different outfits. And who doesn't remember those HUGE stuffed Alfs that you could get at fairs and carnivals? I had one of those things rotting in my little fort...bleeding foam all over the place. :)
