Hi all, I’m hoping someone can help identify a sealed Merlin/Topps Pokémon sticker pack from the UK. It looks like the standard 1999 Series 1 red pack with Ash and Pikachu on the front, but the wrapper reads “6 STICKERS + 1 TOPPS TRADING CARD” where the normal pack just says 6 stickers. Details from the wrapper: • Front: Pokémon logo, Ash and Pikachu, circular “International Nintendo Licensed Product” seal, Merlin Collections logo • Back: Topps logo, “Published by Topps Europe Ltd, 18 Vincent Avenue, Milton Keynes, MK8 0AW, England” • Copyright: © 1995, 1996 and 1998 Nintendo, CREATURES, GAME FREAK. © 1999 Nintendo • Barcode: 5 018819 901307 I believe these were sold through UK newsagents, but I can’t find this version documented anywhere. Every listing and guide I’ve found describes the six-sticker pack only, and I couldn’t see it in the Topps Collecting Guide here. Any information that can be shared would be much appreciated. ![IMG_4841](https://efour.b-cdn.net/uploads/default/original/4X/b/2/7/b2747f67045102a454335a64aafed84f8004388b.png) ![image](https://efour.b-cdn.net/uploads/default/original/4X/5/8/5/5856bf51ce5deece24cda3a71d65f7541f8d4897.jpeg) ---

Since no one seems to know what these are and I’ve got a full box, I’m tempted to open a pack and see what’s inside. Will report back my findings on the weekend. In the meantime, any further info would be much appreciated. ---

Quick update for everyone who was curious about what’s actually in these. I opened one pack from the box today. Inside were the six Merlin stickers plus one Topps TV Animation Series 1 card, as the wrapper says. The Topps card is the UK print: blue Topps logo on the front and black text. I got the non-holo Blastoise (#9) in this pack. ![IMG_7218](https://efour.b-cdn.net/uploads/default/original/4X/3/f/3/3f3377981672c7fb8211f49f5061114a93beb44a.jpeg) ---

This is a really interesting varient. I’m in the UK and don’t remember ever seeing this one. Also pretty cool that you got the Blastoise in the same pack as a Blastoise sticker!
