Personal Weaponry:  The armors contain a vast array of weaponry and scanners including but not limited to:

• Body Armor:  The armor's steel alloy construction gives the wearer remarkable protection against physical attack and incredible protection against energy attacks, including extreme temperatures and hard radiation.
• Battle Computer:  Onboard reference computers give the wearer incredible reason when identifying targets and analyzing their history, abilities, and probable tactics.  If a target is previously unknown, the computer will suggest the nearest known superhuman.
• "Card Shuffle":  A combination of shape change and suspended animation.  Both the armor and its wearer are transformed into a plastic card similar in size and appearance to a credit card, hence the name of this armor.  The cards possess typical material strength.  The change can be triggered by a radio transmitter at a range of 25 miles.  While in the carded state, the wearer is suspended in stasis and completely helpless.  If the card is damaged, the subject cannot be restored to his original state.
• Rockets:  Bootjets enable the armor to fly at 105mph
• Energy detection and lifeform detection
• Radio:  An in-suit transceiver is capable of suit-to-suit communications and monitoring police band transmissions.
• Laser:  Each armor suit was equipped with a handheld pulse-laser rifle o f incredible material strength.  Various setting include, but are not limited to - melt material of excellent strength or less, deliver kinetic blasts of excellent force but no heat damage with an area of effect about 50' diameter sphere, and deliver excellent heat damage against a single target.

History:

     The original Credit Card Soldiers were disgruntled Vietnam veterans.  They are patriotic but annoyed at the way they were treated after the war.  Despite their willingness to participate in grand larceny, they will refuse to perform anti-American acts.  As they say, "We may be thieves and criminals, but by heaven we're American thieves and criminals!"
     They retain their old military discipline and skills.  While acting as Credit Card Soldiers, they refer to each other by rank and a color codename.  They specialize in hitting hard and fast before their victims can get their bearings.  They rely on their inboard computers for target identification and combat advice.
     The Credit Car Soldier armor was developed by the expatriate Soviet scientist known only as Sergei.  The project was a KGB operation overseen by Boris Bullski, the Titanium Man.  Sergei's cooperation was achieved by threats to his parents who still lived in the U.S.S.R.   Sergei developed both the armor's design and the "credit card" technology that gave the armor its special trick.  This was a means of transforming the armor and its wearer into a small card and then restoring them to their original state.  Either transformation was triggered by a special signal sent by a remote control device.  This device was also incorporated into  Bullski's Titanium Man armor.
     Bullski used a holographic projector to disguise his armor and assume the identity of "the Commander,"  He recruited a band of disaffected Vietnam War veterans, men who felt betrayed by their country's apparent abandon of them after the war's end.  Under the Commander's guidance, they formed the ironically-named Green Liberation Front, an organization dedicated to life, liberty, and the pursuit of a lot of money.  The Commander provided them with copes of Sergei's freshly built armor and sent them to raid the Wall Street financial district, ostensibly to steal as much money as they could.  They hit the New York Federal Bank first, then the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, two targets that would yield massive amounts of cash.  They didn't realize that they were merely acting as pawns in the Titanium Man's plot.  He intended to plant a computer feedback impulser that would overload all computers hooked to the Federal Reserve's computer network.  Thus, a major portion of American financial records would be disrupted and the nations economy plunged into chaos.
     Sif and alien adventurer Beta Ray Bill fought the G.L.F. and the Commander.  During the battle, Sergei learned his parents were dead.  In revenge, he exposed the Titanium Man's identity.  The G.L.F. was happy to act as thieves but were angered that they had been made communist dupes.  They turned on the Titanium Man.  Faced with certain destruction, the Titanium Man escaped via a teleportation device in his armor.  his atoms reassembled at this headquarters in the form of the characteristic "credit card."  Sergei later took the card and simply tore it in tow, presumably killing Bullski or at least preventing him from returning to his original form.
     Sergei gave the authorities a control device for activating the credit card transformation.  Beta Ray Bill gave the G.L.F. a simple choice: abandon the armor or be carded permanently.  Bill allowed the G.L.F. five minutes to flee the area.  Presumably, the former G.L.F. members are still at large, thought without their armor, the are relatively harmless.
     The police recovered the carded armor and took possession of the control module.  Neither the current location of these suits or Sergei's location are known at this time.  The G.L.F. base remains secret and may presumably no be in Sergei's possession.  The base contains automated manufacturing facilities, high tech labs, and the plans to build more Credit Card Armor suits.
     Note:  Sergei's armor design was apparently original.  During the "Armor Wars" in which Iron Man systematically destroyed all armor that used his designs, these suits were left alone.

Significant Issues: 

• Thor #357 - The G.L.F. attack the New Federal Bank of New York, and are attacked by Beta Ray Bill and Sif.  They are defeated but they manage to escape
• Thor #358 - The G.L.F. discover that they are really working for the Titanium Man, and turn against him.  Beta Ray Bill has the device that changes them to credit card mode, and tells them that if they are still wearing the armor in 5 minutes, they will be trapped inside forever.
