I think it's hilarious that on these cards they have pegged Adam's creation at 4026 BCE. So if you add 7000 years (= 1 Creative Day™) to that you get 2975 CE (no zero year). Minus 1000 years for Jesus' rule post-Armageddon™ and you can determine that 1975 is where they place 6000 years since Adam's creation.
They are still hanging on to that old chestnut.

I did not see that there was a Abraham, ha!
I would consider trading some of mine for some of yours, also mine are printed on photo quality paper, not regular paper.

They seem to have missed the point about trading-cards. They're all available for download straight away. "Collect them all"?? Okay, that would take five minutes... then what? The point of trading-cards is to only have some available at a time, and trade with other kids for ones you don't have.
And if they're not trying to imitate the trading-card market, what's the point of the 'challenge' to "collect them all" anyway??

How about cards for all the lady apostles, judges and prophets?

jgnat- I was just going to say the same thing...
22 male and 3 female characters??
I haven't yet read any of the descriptions, but I'd wager the words used to describe the females are different than those of the males...

Fer fucks sake -Esther was a bad ass and they describe her as having "a submissive spirit".
Don't want to give those JW girls too rousing of a role model!

Even the card dedicated to Mary doesn't even hint at the WTS belief that Mary was not "forever virgin" and that she bore other children, Jesus' brothers and sisters.
I'm thinking that these collector cards are geared to any potential visitor to the site, particularly fundamentalist Christian parents who home school their kids, looking for acceptable Ned Flanders-y type activities for their children.
