Somportex Thunderball card set

I have been collecting for 40 years, I have the 72 card set with the 6 variation cards. I was told that there are more than 6 variations of this set.by another collector. He could not prove it to me but, I would like anyone out there to prove him or me wrong. If you have the set, you already know that cards 5, 15, 19, 24, 51 and 71 are the known variation cards. Do you find this valuable?

Are you able to point out what is actually different on these two cards? What should I look for? Different poses or totally different pictures used. Thanks for the information. Do you find this valuable?

I will ask one last time? What is the differences in these cards. Card #1 and Card #1 variation. Card #3 and Card #3 variation? What actually is the difference on the cards?
I am looking for - What to look for in each card that makes them different from the originals and what is the normal vs variation card.

Card 1 variation I have heard has the same image on the front (portrait lady astride bike helmet removed), but on the reverse has "Rockets On The Road" details on the reverse. I have the Card 3 variation which has landscape lady racing bike image on both cards, but with "Rockets On The Road" on one card and "Fast Agent" on the other. I have all the other variations listed above and can confirm they are correct.
