| |
| ==History==
| |
| The first batch of trading cards was released in [[2001 (real world)|2001]] with 26 different character cards. In [[2003 (real world)|2003]], each character received a second card, bringing the total to 52 cards. In [[2012]], 2 more cards were added for [[Ladonna Compson|Ladonna]], bringing the grand total to 54 cards.
| |
|
| |
| The CBBC website only has the original 26 cards.
