Certainly not from series 1, way too much detail, too well done! Is that a cat in her hair?

Lol!

Wacky Packages were not intended to be painted in the style of Norm's realistic sci-fi covers. Just because a particular character is more realistically rendered doesn't make it better. The characters used in the 1st series are among the best and most memorable. Chock is as close to a perfect wacky as there could ever be.

I noticed that!

Are these all old cards or ANS?

I'd say ANS. Maybe a Gross or Smokin' Joe character...

This is the kind of stuff I wanted to come up with for Wacky Day last week!
Can't check my stickers right now, not at home.

I have no idea, has anyone gotten it yet?

Looks like Ding Kongs to me.

This seems as good a time as any to ask about a Wacky character I've never been able to place.
In the Wacky Packages Forum banner at the top of our screens, the woman with dark hair above and between the Y in Wacky and P in Packages, where the heck is that character from? I was able to easily ID all the others, but not that one. I'm sure I'm going to kick myself when I find out what sticker it's from, assuming of course we're talking pre-ANS.

Land o Quakes!

Joe already correctly identified it above as DING KONGS from ANS11. Here's a look...

Each is the correct answer to the two different questions being asked.

That WAS confusing....... The character Jean Nutty provided in the very first post was from ANS11 Ding Kongs, and the question about the forum header character is Land-O-Quakes - I THINK MoldRush asked that question, but with all the embedded posts and overlapping quotes, I'm not sure.
-
Yes that was me asking about Lando Pat. Thanks all for answering. I can now understand why I had trouble with it - the way the image is shown in the banner, the Indian headdress and pigtails are cropped out, which eliminates the most obvious identifiers. Plus, the face on the sticker is relatively tiny, and I was thinking something on a bigger scale. Mystery solved.

ANS 10 Bonus Card B14 Rice & Romney

That looks more like Paul Ryan than Mitt Romney if you ask me. Or is it supposed to be?

Paul Ryan was Mitt Romney's VP choice. Am I the only one that looks at ANS Wackys?

Speaking only for myself, when the bonus stickers got too expensive, I stopped collecting them all. Don't think I have this one.

a little bit of inspiration from the TSEP/Totarillo baby in your MEME?

Patrick you nailed it on all counts. It's the baby, Meme is owling on from the side of the Meme (Wacky Packages 2015 card 87) box. It is also a homage to Tot and TSEP!

Interesting. Where/when is this from? New series or repackaged series in foreign wrapper?

Judging from the wrapper style and topps logo, it's probably a more recent ANS wrapper.

I was thinking the same. I suspect it more likely to be the latter, as I can't imagine Topps marketing/selling Wacky Packages without using the well-known logo.

A also agree. I think the only time Topps altered the name from WACKY PACKAGES was the shortened "WACKY PACKS" found on the 1985 U.K. release. I am very skeptical that wrapper shown above is a WP wrapper.

Purelf is a classic ANS title! It's a great gag and superbly painted by John Zeleznik.

Makes me long for my Candy Land board game from childhood, which was likely the exact version used in the parody, as I got it around the same time. Somewhat simplistic gameplay, but I loved the images on the board, such as “ice cream floats”, which were slices of spumoni floating on a lake like little rafts. Too funny.
-
I still have my Candy Land game from 50 or so years ago and keep it for the sake of nostalgia. I particularly liked the ice cream rafts, as well. Can't put my finger on it; There's just something neat about them.
-
Yes! And the cluster of gumdrops, the ice pops, etc. Before I posted yesterday I couldn’t remember too many specifics, only that I remember loving the board graphics and how colorful they are. Looking at google images is what brought the memories rushing back. I played this game a lot when I first got it, and definitely for a good while before being distracted away by something else.
Oddly, I couldn’t pinpoint the version I most likely had, which would have been bought around 1974 if I remember correctly. An eBay search featured a 1955, 1962, 1978, 1984 and later versions. Maybe mine was a ‘62 that stayed in production without changing the year? Not sure.
-
Good to know you guys are still doing the cool trivia stuff on here that I remember in the Wacky heyday. A lot better than my goofball Wacky puzzles, too.

I thought I remember one of the artists commenting here on the forum that the sketches were supposed to have the title on them, at least the last few releases or so. But I see from looking on eBay that Pat Chaimuang's sketches do not.

Most of the ones I just pulled do have the title, but there are a few that don't.
