Chase:

Comments: These cards were regionally distributed only in Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic. The set is identical to the Mexican Pepsi set, except for the following differences:

Like the Mexican Pepsi set, the basic set is taken from the 1994 Flair Marvel (Inaugural Edition) [American] set. Two big differences between this set and the 1994 Flair Marvel set is that the card stock in the Puerto Rican set is thinner and the "'94 Flair" logo is missing on the upper corner of the card fronts. The chase set contains the same artwork as in the regular Powerblast chase cards from the 1994 Marvel Universe set, but with a different numbering sequence. All text on card backs are written in Spanish and this is called the "Pepsi" set because of the Pepsi logo on all card backs.

The non-prism chase cards actually only refers to the lettering on the card front and the main character. I.e., both variants contain prism backgrounds but some contain non-prism lettering of the character name.

Card #s 86-100 are unnumbered in this set and correspond to both the Maximum Carnage and Mutant Genesis subsets from the [American] '94 Flair Marvel set.

While it is certain that the Puerto Rican set did not contain hologram chase cards, a recent find (Aug. 2003) of the four-hologram chase set with a 1995 copyright date and the same Pepsi logo as found on the Puerto Rican Pepsi set, has led me to believe there is also another identical set distributed in Peru as the chase cards were advertised as being from Peru - this set consisting of the same cards (basic and all chase) as in the Mexican Pepsi set, but with the Pepsi logo identical to that found on the Puerto Rican cards.

Look here for an image of all 3 variant chase cards from both the Puerto Rican and Mexican Pepsi sets.Thanks Carlos!
