The pterosaurs carrying off the cattle is a nice touch, and apparently the ankylosaurus got tired of being an herbivore.

I have my doubts about the stegosaur chowing down on flesh as well. Somehow I don't think these cards were presented to a board of distinguished paleontologists to be checked for scientific accuracy.

quasi-gum That stuff was the color of blown-in R4 attic insulation, and just about as tasty.

As a kid, my theory was that the trading cards were just a way to unload some sort of industrial by-product as "gum."

In the M1 Abrams v dinosaur battle, I'd bet on the Abrams. Hell, a .50 cal M2 would mess up a a HERD of dinosaurs, not to mention the 30 mm Gatling cannon on an A-10 Warthog...

Now, if they were proper cyborg dinos with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads… This would be a different story, with a gruesomely different ending.
