Mattel GmbH Art.Nr. 6303 Major Matt Mason mit Mondanzug

Mattel GmbH Art.Nr. 1-6303 Major Matt Mason mit Mondanzug Card Front 

The German packaging is basically the same as the US packaging using a similar card with the same graphic elements, text in German. The card bubble is made of a thinner plastic and generally has more yellowing and damage than the US card bubble. The back of the card is printed on uncoated stock so it exhibits some discoloration. As with the US version, the arms are rarely intact as they become brittle with age.
