I did a Dead Baron Pizza parody for one of my homemades about six years or so ago.  See my link in my signature for the page where all my homemades can be viewed.  Enjoy.

Is this the same joker who was posting all those purposely lame spoofs on Greg's site a while back? If you're not trying to be funny, I'm sorry to tell you that these are pretty bad.

Dang, this post knocked me down a notch.
I’m hoping you are Martin’s buddy and this is an inside joke.

Who are you referring to with your post?  You didn't use the "quote" feature so you can't tell who you are directing the comment to.

Oops, I should clear up who I'm talking about. I was referring to 7-Ups' big list of ideas, not Martin's artwork. Is 7-Up the same kid who was posting goofy stuff on Greg's site last year?

First of all, I'm not a kid. Second, I'm not the joker who was posting goofy stuff on Greg's site last year. And finally, my ideas might not have been top notch ideas, but I thought I had a couple of good ones (Marshmallow Wabbits, Jerk's Pizza, Propeller Water). I really was giving ideas for types of products to spoof. None of these products have been.

I think you may be referring to idiotcomic?  I don't believe he's been on this forum though, and I thought 7-Pup had some nice titles in there.

I think you will find that most of the Wacky artists prefer not to use ideas that have been solicited to them on the forums.  I think they might worry about being accused of taking credit for an idea that someone posted on the message boards.

They may or may not take your suggestions for Wacky Packages All New Series 8 if it gets a 2011 green light and depending on ANS7 sales.

This is always a problem. I submitted Propeller as a gag for the newest ANS set. They liked it and just wanted some changes but by the time I was ready to work out the new stuff we already had enough for the series. Maybe next one.  I also have two other ones on this list in my idea notebook already.

I have a hunch with the odds for the chase cards that ANS 7 will be a huge success.

Are you going to chase the tough stuff? I don't plan on doing that again. I'm still trying to find a gold Battlecaps from Flashback 2.

I need to decide the same thing.  It would be nice to have total production #'s so we could calculate the total #'s of sketches, gold foils etc.

I know 71 cards out of 72 doesn't cut it for a collector but you have to be pretty damn proud to pull this off. Very tough!
I am not sure what I will do. It all depends on my first case of 8 boxes and what I pull. I could pull something really nice and think it's really easy or I could pull nothing while another forum member buys one or two boxes and pulls a fantastic card. Then it's hard to say where the rational in my brain will take me ;D
I never thought I would buy as many of the Flashbacks 1 &2 or OLDS as I did but it all worked out that I didn't have to invest too much even though I bought a shit load. I was also able to recoup my losses. ANS7 will be really hot from the gate as all sets and then simmer down. It all depends on what get's pulled and the selling hype on ebay. It's always a rush initially with any release so we will have to see.

I know what will happen. When you open your first case a Topps flower will rise up and shoot spores in your face like what happened to Spock in Star Trek. Then you'll be hooked.

Yah, but if anyone will get more lucky than the average odds predict it will be you! 

I've been out of the loop for a few days...........did we get clarification on what sub-set will get the gold foils?

I ordered some boxes from them once and they told me they didn't actually have them in stock but were pretty sure they could get some so they left the ad up. I got a refund and decided not to order from them again.

I have ordered from these guys before and they have always come through.

I know!  I think Daryl likes the waiting and anticipation more than getting the actual series.
