According to the latest issue of Non-Sport Update (which just arrived in my mail today), Wacky ANS 9 will be arriving in stores in July.Start waiting!And, Topps, please keep the magnets in and bring back the cereal boxes.
Awesome! So we know for sure we'll have Olds 3, Postcard series 8, and ANS9 in 2012, and then most likely a Halloween postcard series. I would think there would also be time for Old School series 4 and another Eraser series. 2012 could be as good as 2011!
OLDS 4 (June) & OLDS 5 (November/ December)
OLDS 2 to OLDS 3 took 1 year. 3-4 and 5 in 1 year? I dont see it happeneing.
Let's reiterate:OLDS 4 (June 2014) & OLDS 5 (November/ December 2015) - there ya go!! Let the Waiting Begin!!
No ANS9 preview flyers yet?
Maybe the March Previews will feature pre-orders for it plus a few previews.
You guys are relentless. We are only 6 days into OLDS3 and you want more. My wallet needs to cool off a bit...LOL
Here's some Wacky trivia to freak you out. It was seven years between the 1973 release and the 1979 re-issues. It has now been EIGHT years since the release of ANS 1.
We are not experiencing reruns now so there is no corilation to these facts. Not sure how this will "freak us out"
I think the observation is interesting - we're a year longer into the new Wackys, and still getting new series!!
And, Topps, please keep the magnets in and bring back the cereal boxes.
I doubt we'll see cereal boxes. When the ANS7 boxes were still on shelves, I heard from Topps that they sold poorly at retail. They had plans to do cereal boxes for GPKs but they were cancelled.
I'd be fine with more time in between ANS sets and better quality artwork on these. Old School continues to crush it in terms of quality, so a year in between sets seems to be a good formula. I also like the eraser series - I hope these continue. And in the interim, the postcard sets whet our appetites nicely.
Wouldn't they need to keep the ANS sets coming out yearly to hold kids interest and keep the brand fresh in their mind. I doubt that kids even know that Olds exist or the postcards.
Do kids these days even know postcards exist at all?
No..not a lick...most kids don't even know about Wacky Packs...this coming from my crew...10-13 age group..B&G...I did once see a kid with a binder of wacky's - the ANS one's, he was at AppleBee's - didn't say anything but I wanted to ask him if a lot of kids where aware...he was..
