Nope, found them here in Holland. I really don't understand what they were
doing in the shop I bought them from. It's just a normal warehouse and they
never have anything special.
There was only one pack laying there, so I asked the lady behind the counter
about it. She said they'd had a lot of those packs. Ofcourse that's a big load
of crap, because I visit that place at least once a week and I've never seen
them before. You just can't trust store personell. Ask them if there's any old
sets laying around in the back and they say no. But visit that same place a
few times more and after a while you'll see all kinds of old sets appearing on
the shelves. How odd. :)

Yep, the package says 1997 indeed.

Thanks Todd! That's the pack I'm talking about.
