Japanese G1 Transformers Wrapper
I'm hoping someone out there in cyberspace can shed some light on this for me. Not too long ago I ran across a wrapper to some vintage G1 Japanese trading cards or stickers. I've done a few Google searches and nothing seems to come up. The wrapper is more like a paper pouch than your standard fare card/sticker wrapper. It appears it was stapled shut at one point as well. Even though I have no idea about this wrapper I couldn't pass up the opportunity to add it to my "odd ball" TF collection. Does anyone know anything about this wrapper?
Seems like it features Soundblaster and Megatron meaning it would have been released after Headmasters, unless that is just an off-color Soundwave because it looks suspiciously 1985. Also, the text above Transformers says "Fight! Super Lifeform Transformers" which is, as I am sure you know, what the series was called in Japan in 1985. I imagine it is some sort of sticker or card holder, maybe a sleeve for all the collectible cards that came with the figures?
