Micro Machines Super 10 and 20 Collections
The Super 10 and 20 collections were a fun way to quickly build a collection when they were released. Today, they're sought after for unique vehicles and rarity since most were opened long ago.

1987 Prototype Super Set
The 10-packs were initially being thought of for release in really dramatic packaging. This set was sadly not released, but an impressive surviving example of the extreme creativity employed by Galoob as the Micro Machines brand took off in popularity.

1988/1989 Super 10 Collections
These sets are too difficult to determine the exact year of release, but card-backs indicate the range to be 1988 to 1989. Since card backs did not match the year of release in the mainline collections during these years, it's best to group them all together. The cards seem to match the 1988 styling the most, but some of the sets have vehicles that are vibrant colors like the 1990 releases. Many of the vehicles found in these sets were not released in the mainlines. Therefore, competition for some of these collections can be fierce when offered for sale. Some sets shown have just 1 vehicle changed, so look close. Canadian and UK (including a 1990 card-back) collections are separated out at the bottom. (Note: 1988 card-backs are used to separate possible 1988 from 1989 collections.)

1988/1989 Super 20 Collections
These 20-vehicle sets included some unique vehicles separate from the mainlines. Most collectors appear unaware of the unique releases, so competition on these sets is still fairly minimal. Good condition cards for these can be a challenge if collecting for high grade.

1990 Super 20 Collections (UK Only)
Two of these 20-vehicle packs were released in the UK with many unique vehicles included not found in the mainlines. The collections are incredibly challenging to locate sealed, but the loose vehicles can typically be found over time if watching for bulk "job" lots of loose vehicles in the UK.
