Where is the original image? - I might be able to enhance it enough to scan the QR code.

sorry, chris.

this is the listing for one of the cards. all auctions have closed, and i bought them all. worth a try, i figure.

Very interesting.....Knockoff Mini's???


RE: help from one our translators, please? - sunhuntin - 08-29-2021

no, they appear to be info cards, possibly given out by a store?


RE: help from one our translators, please? - Super - 08-29-2021

I thought that Mini's were made by Trackmaster and was looking for that word. I do see the trademark for 2017 Gullane Limited on the back though. I am curious as to why they made this card with the "(Not For Sale)" on the back.

The QR code simply takes you to the fisher-price.com homepage

Hmmm...wonder what this says?

If you put the link in the Wayback Machine and go back to 2016–2018, it takes you to the original Japanese site. I wasn’t able to find anything more about the not-for-sale aspect, though.
