Marvel Universe Series 1 - Help with information about the set

I picked up a few of these "Factory" Sets from a dealer friend of mine at a regular monthly card show back in the early 1990's. At the time he told me he got them directly from IMPEL, and that they were complete sets including the holograms.

The boxes are regular small cardboard boxes for smaller sets. The kind you buy at a local shop or trade show to hold about 200 cards.

On each side there is a paper sticker that says Marvel I #A0601 There is also what appears to be IMPEL Factory Tape that goes around the box to prevent it from opening. It does look like the IMPEL Logo, and says FACTORY SEALED under the Logo.

I searched the Item number #A0601, but could not find anything on eBay and a broader internet search came up empty.

I opened one of the sets and it was indeed a complete 1990 Marvel Universe set and also includes the 5 Holograms.

Anyone have more information on the history of these sets?
