    I loathe Valentines personally, but this tests my will.

    Valentine card messages are so corny, wish they'd step it up.

    With "Let's have buttsecks" , or "Touch my Penis"

    I found some at Target---theirs seem much the same as the others, though Skywarp, Cliffjumper, and Hound are included, which I haven't seen mentioned before. But theirs doesn't have PM Prime.

    I would buy these.

    And then just keep them for myself.

    My lady gets snuggly romantic cards from me on Valentines.

    If these had truly been made in '84 they wouldn't just be Optimus Prime, Bumblebee Megatron and Soundwave. Back then they used to mix other characters than the top 5 or 6 into merchandising.

    I found these today at Savemart, a locate supermarket chain. The cards seem to be the same as those previously posted but the box art is different.

    I love that the copyright in the lower left hand corner of the back is listed as 20013, a very futuristic date.
