Year: 2000

Set: Future Bee Power League UL (Rate)

“ Uh...is this "Future Bee" Power League, or Future "Bee Power" League? If it's the latter, I assume they have some sort of honey company ties? And why is the team name in English, when this person and card is clearly from Japan? I have absolutely no idea what's going on here, but strangely, I like it anyway. Except for the team logo, which is kind of creepy. ” -Billy Kingsley

“ Wow, never heard of this set, but love the international flavor! ” -bkklaos

“ Did Future Bee buy out Action Packed? Sure looks that way. ” -NJdevils

“ Let's play a game called...How much can you cram on one card! ” -SFC Temple

“ Success here gets you moved up to the Dogs The Shoot Bees Out Of Their Mouth When They Bark League. ” -UNC_Samurai

“ I like the contrast front number. ” -jlaz10

“ This a awkward card design, but probably not the worst. ” -addysdaddy

“ I usually don't like much made in the last 40 years or so but this is great! Great jersey, cool logo, nice design. I'm gonna go watch Ultraman now. ” -revnorb

NJDevils, Pinnacle bought out Action Packed in 1996, and now Panini owns Pinnacle after Pinnacle folded in 1998. I am hoping that Panini will bring back the Action Packed brand, with full embossing, for the NBA soon.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

Gotta say... better than pokemon. at least this card serves a purpose... as for the English part. Japanese, Chinese, and other Asian cultures include English as a mandatory course for schooling due to the fact that we have two international languages of business. Mandarin and English. Oriental cultures are the smart ones that include English in a lot of their every day life whereas we in north America haven't much of a clue about Mandarin unless we feel we're interested...

Good luck on Jeopardy if the question about business language ever comes up btw Useless tidbit of knowledge for the day complete

For example, "Biat siou" (spelt as i was taught to pronounce it, probably very wrong, but the message would get across,) is a phrase I learned to respond to a Caucasian coworker of mine who thinks he knows mandarin. It means "shut up" in the nicest, most polite way possible... or so the philippino fellow who taught me it said it would...
