Here are the three sketch cards I pulled. I will be keeping the color Ork sketch. If anyone is interested in trades for either of the other two, I would be interested in one of the Pat C. Bog creature sketches.

such vivid colors!! im really starting to love the ork sketches

i love it. Looking at this sketch I'm wondering if topps would ever gear towards the younger generation as customers for the halloween pc sets? Does anyone know what age group is the biggest wacky packages customer as a whole. Not vintage wackys or original art but all new series stuff, post cards, and erasers ect.

I don't know about the other stuff, but the postcards are definitely geared towards the older collectors. Afterall, when was the last time you saw a kid mail a postcard? Maybe we need to create a Wacky set based on text messaging - that would probably get their attention!

Really? How did you come up with that?
The next sketch I pull could be your favorite. Biting the hand that feeds your obsession is pretty stupid. Especially when you know the guy you're taking a shot at doesn't care about Topps rules or the Wacky Gestapo.

I've got a scenario for everyone. Brad orders 3 sets. His mom, knowing how much Brad loves the sketch cards because he talks her ear off about them, decides to buy him some sets for his birthday. Brad receives the sets. What does Brad do?

A. Return them to Topps and turn himself in to the authorities.
B. Keep them.

The first to answer correctly wins a free sets of series 4 postcards. I'll even sign the Scary Garcia card.

B all the way...

Two of the same sketches. That stinks! What are the odds? I know of another guy that got 2 Toothies also in his 3 packs. Terrible collation. I'm thinking Simko did 100 Toothies now...LOL

I got (2) Toothies also

For the record I only got 3 sets. Total. My relatives have no idea about them nor does my wife. She could care less. She asked me what I was doing on the computer last Friday and I said some new Wacky stuff came out and all she said was "oh,OK".
That is the extent of my conversation about Wackys with my family other than my kids.

You should tell everyone so they buy them for you birthday (and I would win the signed 4th series cards)

Can you tell us what the answer is for the hypothetical question though? I'd like to award the prize and it wouldn't be fair for me to assume your answer.

It seemed like more of a rhetorical question to me. Of course if my mother were to buy me a set of Wackys I would keep them. I still have the check she sent me for my B-day but I still haven't cashed it. I also still have the Wacky calendar my sister bought me even though I had 4 others. It's not a very good question.

I don't see how the postcards differ in appeal or design from the regular kid Wackys. The products spoofed are typical of ANS. There aren't any "adult" products being spoofed anymore. The gags aren't tailored for adults. So while it may be adults that mostly buy them I don't see how are they geared for adults. In fact I would LOVE to see Topps create a series that actually DOES appeal directly to adult sensibilities.

He should be pretty honored to have your autograph especially from a sketch by an artist that doesn't care for the sketch cards.

That would be an awsome sight to behold, but alas, its just the set, not the sketch. Dont get me wrong i'm smiling on the inside.

Bummer and here I was coming to your aid recalling when you were cool enough to make old school presale boxes available due to a shortage and you let me down here claiming you wouldn't turn back your superfluous legitimately gained Post Card sets

I was thinking more along the lines of nudy mags, booze, cigarettes, condoms ect. like the vintage wackys.

If thats ever going to happen, artists will have to do it on the underground. I dont see it coming out of Topps.

They're ok in the Old School series -- although I don't recall a condom Wacky. Man that could be hilarious. Did they do one in the X series?

Topps should have the Series 2 erasers at the show, as well as some of the dealers.

Opened my first wrapper today and loving the sketch card. Too funny! Looks like my scanner has died after two days of scanning my old concert ticket stub collection, will post a better scan later.

far too many people getting dupes on toothie roll in a 3-pack set - but I did get a really nice Hairi-Boo/Ork combo in the 3rd pack

of course, I'm looking to trade a Toothie for any other sketch

I actually pulled a Simko sketch that was a close up of just a tooth - and I was just as bummed as the guy on the right in the sketch! So I quickly sold it on ebay, not knowing there was a companion sketch that makes it totally hilarious. It would have been awesome to have both sketches, but I was too late to pick up the one shown here. Double-bummer!
