Combining two TCGs into one

Do any trading-card game variants exist that use cards originally from two or more distinct games? NeonMerlin 20:53, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

Universal Fighting System combines cards from multiple video games series.--SeizureDog (talk) 22:54, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

That's not what I mean. UFS cards were UFS cards from the start, even if their artwork is not original. What I mean is do there exist any games for which one could build a deck from, say, some Pokemon cards, some Magic, and some UFS? NeonMerlin 00:56, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

I remember once playing with Star Trek CCG cards according to rules based on the Pokemon TCG, but I don't think they were similar enough that you could mix decks. Confusing Manifestation(Say hi!) 04:28, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

You could work out a "Top Trumps" type game with most decks, I suspect. SaundersW (talk) 12:33, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Reese Bobby's car in Talladega Nights

It's this gorgeous black and tan beauty probably from the 1960's with a red stripe on the side and the number 13 on both doors. The wax job is absolutely impeccable and it seems to have a pretty sick engine. I swear I looked, guys, but sometimes my googling skills fail me. Can anyone help me out?

Googling "reese bobby black car" turned up the following bit from the IMDB page on Talladega Nights: "The car that Reese Bobby drives over the course of the entire film is a 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu." --24.147.86.187 (talk) 04:14, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks so much for the reply! I got the answer about four hours ago from yahoo answers. Sappysap (talk) 10:34, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

The Internet Movie Cars Database is usually a good resource for this sort of thing. Laïka 15:59, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

For the record, they do have pretty sick engines. A buddy of mine had one in high school and it was a monster of a car (he eventually crashed it, but such is life with fast cars, no?). (did Yahoo! Answers give you funny little anecdotes with their response? I bet not! Good things come to those who wait!) --24.147.86.187 (talk) 02:19, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
