I used it to erase a few pencil marks i made, i thought it worked good. Better than some erasers, some are like rubber.

Wait, has anyone tried sniffing their wacky erasers when they freshly open a package? Wonder if they have a smell? I don't have any so someone will have to let me know...lol  ^-^  those pink pearl erasers dry rot over time too, don't they? I wonder if the wacky erasers will do the same?

Hey there Gen 4,

What does WSE stand for? Wacky Sticker Enthusiast?  ;D

Spite is my favorite eraser, as it's one of my all time favorite Wacky titles.

I love the Mice Krispies as well. I think it works great for an eraser. I also really like Ditz. Must be the box size erasers that are larger. Easier on the eye's....you old fart. Maybe that is why I'm getting into the paintings. They look so nice and really easy on the eyes. No strain...LOL

I'm looking forward to the 5x7 Old School sets just because of the 'easy on the eyes' aspect!  Plus, adding those to the individual binders will fill them up better.

Be Careful !!   These things leave grease marks!  I have them in a 400ct card box. I opened the box to add a few more and i could see lots of stains.  just a note


P.S. The only Wolfman i found, the card has a stain on it.  :'(

I like Demented. It is nice to see a die cut card be an eraser, but also the round shape of it makes it look totally like a small can of sauce.

I also like Boreo and Geek Giant.

All in all, I think Topps did a great job with the erasers!  I love that they did the detail of pull tops and can edges on the sodas.  But to me, the dimensions/shapes just seem way off.

The baggie edges on candies were great, but it seems that they didn't get the art 'wrappers' overlayed right (at least on mine), and dimensions can't be right with so many different 'bagged' products.

Demented is my favorite - it's cool to see a die-cut title, and the can proportions really do remind me of a large can of tomatoes.  And the Wacky itself is totally recognizable and legible at this size!  Geek Giant is the same shape, and works well for me, too, and the gag is recognizable, but a little too small.  Cavemanwich is just too detailed to appreciate at this size.

Prickles works great in the tall format, and is my second favorite.  Ditz and Frosted Snakes next.  In all of these cases, the package shape works, and while I can't read all the details, the title and basic art carry the gag for me, even at the small size.
