Hey form, sorry man.. I don't have this one but I have a similar one shown here:
(http://http://i897.photobucket.com/albums/ac177/rickman-12/DSCN0982.jpg?1299159492)
(http://http://i897.photobucket.com/albums/ac177/rickman-12/DSCN0983.jpg?1299159689)

The french one is yours or it's only a stk photo?? I'm really interested in it!
There's some differences between them;
-mine is a 1987 insert with Starduster v1.a
-it's the same text as yours but in english
-you had to sent the form to NH Ca instead of Longueuil Qc.. for 9.50$ US + 3 fp. instead of 11.00 CDN + 3 fp.

Canadian APC wins. Z Force ATC can't break on the ice, crashes into the Terrordrome, taking it down with it in the explosion. Canadian APC retreats to fight again.

Thanks for showing the US version of this insert, now I know it must be from about 1987 or 1988.  I bought this along with some late 80's and 1990 blueprints a long time ago.
Here's the english side:
