I believe the cards were on the side of the box and were only a strip of three to start with.

Nope, on the bottom, with info usually above and below. Most boxes were strips of three. The exceptions are the small boxes- yodels? That didn't have room for anything other than the cards, and cupcakes which had an irregular panel of 3. They also came in the cupacke and twinkie 2 packs as single cards with either a little panel above and below-cupcakes. Or a more square panel, thecard with 3 really wide borders. There are back diferences between them too.

Personally I'd leave the panels as panels, and find a nice set of singles. Like others have said you'll probably end up with a bit of extra hobby money too.

I've considered trying for a set of complete boxes, but it takes up a load of room. So I've got the whole assortment.

My vote is absolutely do not cut them up--they're like a collector car, that's only original once!!!

Keep them uncut!
