“ Take these over RCOD Soccer game cards any day of the week . ” -uncaian

“ THE RALLY MANTIS! I should add this card to my Royals collection. Nice killer rating. ” -RoyalChief

“ That is one mean looking bug. After clicking on the card I went to PID. He's got 12 cards! ” -rmpaq5

“ I hope these were used in school. ” -carthage44

“ Odd card a praying mantis. These Top Trumps cards are "tall boys" if I recall. Trumps cards I think are more popular in the UK than the US. Or maybe it is just because the first I heard about Top Trumps cards was the Doctor Who set. ” -captkirk42

“ Oh ok ” -wax_house

“ Just came across these videos last week of a praying mantis catching a hummingbird. https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=mantis%20hummingbird ” -CluelessJoe

“ well this is definitely a different CoD, I'm slightly speechless, nice educational set though ” -Lennoxmatt

“ Fascinating card. I need to know how much it weighs! ” -dilemma19

“ Interesting card and set. I'd like to hear more about how the killer rating was determined to be a 7. ” -Mitch

“ Hahahaha! Really? Is this the Praying Mantis rookie? Was there an autographed Grasshopper? Maybe an actual wing from Dragon Fly on a relic card? I am not sure where to draw the line on collector trading cards, but I was very excited to write comments on a ROCTD and I get Praying Mantis. ” -muskie027

Trying to acquire one card for every for every set, insert, parralle, minor, euro, team issue, oddball etc sets produced for Hockey. Been an interesting project.
