This collection is composed of 102 different pogs, however some of them (maybe all... I can't remember) have 3 variants (same drawing, same number, different colors) ... kids were supposed to play a game with them in which the pogs, were put on the ground, kids would throw the ball at the pogs and them sum the points in the back of the pogs which got sticked to the ball, thus obtaining a score... something like that... --Asagoth (talk) 11:26, 12 February 2019 (EST)

Edit: Not of the best quality ... but here's a photo with some of them in their packets... as you guys can see they came with a litlle card which contained instructions/rules for the games that could be played with them...--Asagoth (talk) 06:24, 15 February 2019 (EST)

"Engánchalos Todos"!

The best proof that this collection was released in Spain and Portugal is in the leaflet that came with the ball ... if you look closely you will see the slogan of this collection written in Spanish ("Engánchalos Todos!", written in white) and in Portuguese ("Agárra-os Todos!", written in yellow) which in English translates for "Grab/Catch/Pick/Hook Them All!"... similar to the "Pokémon" slogan... what was released in Spain by Panrico was also released in Portugal by Panrico's subsidiary Panrico Portugal... obviously...--Asagoth (talk) 05:21, 20 February 2019 (EST)
