Topps did a "limited" run of tamperproof packs in 1983 in direct response to the tylenol tampering scare in late 82.

Never was a big fan of upper deck. And I'm always amazed they survived getting caught reprinting their own cards. Of course counterfeiting their own cards (Again! but game cards this time) probably helped them lose the MLB license.
