Jay linked to this on Facebook... First I had heard of it...

definitely needed a new thread though. no reason to talk about Walls360 under LTL

Thanks for the new thread.

Didn't know when the launch was, only that this was the new rights holder.

These are so vivid! I'd love to see Topps redo 1985. The colors are off somehow on the whole series. seems so dark or black or something

Great to see Wackys being available again as giant wall stickers!

Will you be adding more of the original series titles, and if so, will they be available in over 3' size? Currently I only see the newer titles available in 5' and 6'.

The GPK underground will be holding a contest to win some of these. Perhaps this site should contact W360 for some samples to win?

The code works for me but when I selected a 12" x 24" CREEP title for $20 ($17 with code) then click on the "view list of options I selected" it shows it as a 6.24" x 12". Then I clicked on the LIVE CHAT to ask if I will actually receive the 12" x 24" nothing happens! I'll wait until all the bugs are worked out, but then I'll lose the 15% discount.....

Agreed!

WALLS 360 · « **Reply #15 on:** March 15, 2012, 12:52:30 PM »

I think that we now have the bugs worked out in our discount code! If anyone has any problems or issues, please email Tavia@Walls360.com directly. And for those of you who have already ordered, we have contacted you directly and are sorting you out!

And just for the record, discounts will NOT expire for folks on this forum! You are our most discerning customers, and we truly welcome your feedback and support.

In fact - here is a question for the group. On some of the scans that we received from Topps, there are subtle flaws (e.g. dust on the scan, small flecks in the paint). Imperceptible on a small wall graphic, but when blown up to 6 feet tall, it is definitely noticeable. Should we clean this up digitally, or maintain the 'original', flaws and all?

Thoughts?

We are also working with Topps to expand the catalog, so by all means, please post your wish lists! The next wave will launch by Summer 2012.

Also, to answer one of the previous questions in this thread, WALLS 360 does indeed create custom wall graphics: http://www.Walls360.com/Custom for context.

THANK YOU!

Clean them up digitally, as long as the original artwork integrity is maintained. I would want them to look as they did on the original sticker. Most flaws have come from age, handling, exposure, etc. Don't want those flaws in the artwork.

We are currently adding larger sizes to the catalog, as well as creating the first bundle packages. What sort of bundles would you like to see?

The founders of WALLS 360 come from a fine art + digital printing background: http://www.Walls360.com/Company, and we are striving to create the best quality wall graphics possible. And not every image will be available in the largest sizes.

If anyone has any additional questions, please contact Tavia@Walls360.com for a real-time response!

THANK YOU!

Garbage Pail Kids fan site. I know some Wacky fans are GPK fans and vice versa.

crackedjerk · « **Reply #19 on:** March 15, 2012, 05:29:43 PM »

1. I vote to clean up imperfections digitally. If I was buying original art, I might want the imperfections. With a wall graphic, I don't.

2. In general, I'd like to see more original series Wackys. There are certainly quality newer ones, but the nostalgia factor weighs strongly with me and I'd like to see more of those (though more variety/quantity in general is certainly welcome).

3. I like the idea of bundles, even though I'm not quite sure what I'd recommend you bundle. I do think a quantity/volume discount would be welcomed.

Thanks for keeping the overall discount in place for us Wacky fans. I'm glad to see you're making these!

I'm thrilled someone else took these on...I was unable to get any of the others. So now it looks like i'm going to need ALOT more wall space.

Really glad to see your product!

I'd say clean the images digitally. The 'little' flaws really are glaring in the larger images.

As for requests, I second the suggestion of more original series titles, especially if you can get good, clear images. Sometimes Topps has images of the older titles that are missing entire sections of text, which is frustrating. It's cool that you have a bunch of the Wacky Ads and some postcard titles available!

With the more recent releases, it seems like you got just a portion of the titles - will you have access to the other titles at a later date? I'll get an H8 graphic to put on my mini fridge at work if Topps provides you with that postcard bonus card image.

Bundles can be nice; you might consider grouping by theme, like candy, soda, cereal, or possibly a scary group. A 'choose your own' bundle would be cool.

You might also want to consider the option of a slightly smaller size, maybe 8", for bundles or regular purchases, and maybe a custom size.

Thanks for the forum discount!! I am looking forward to ordering some of my favorite Wacky titles!

Yes, more original titles, those are the ones that interest me the most.
Also lots of other great images besides wackys.

Great news! Count me in. I need a large Spite for my office!

I have an urge to stick some of these in public places. People’s reaction might be interesting, especially for anyone who hadn’t seen a Wacky in 40 years. Stick an enormous Pupsi on the Snapple machine at work. A huge Kentucky Fried Fingers at KFC. Taster’s Choke at Starbucks. Burger Thing goes below the cash register at McDonalds. Slacker Jack belongs in a theater somewhere. Wait until the right moment, when people are busy and not looking. Or just act like it is your job and nobody will bother you. If someone asks what you are doing, just say, “Please call the main office if you need details about this work order”

I am in complete agreement with everything RawGoo posted here, right down to wanting a H8 graphic and being thankful for the forum discount.

RaMpB · « **Reply #26 on:** March 17, 2012, 03:23:39 AM »

Like to also thank you for the forum code and love the ideas! How about wacky wallpaper?!

I love te exact pricing ($8 vs $7.99). Very classy. Love the wide range of choices vs just older titles; some surprises come from the larger version of the art. A+ job and agree with the removal of debris

Rabid Shaver · « **Reply #27 on:** March 17, 2012, 03:46:32 AM »

Agree also with the clean-up project, and would like to add (arguably) the most popular OS2 (& 16th series) title Ghoul Humor

...have
to do some wall measuring, but will order a couple later today....Thanx again for the code!

Well, the discount code didn't work for me then, and now the checkout process tells me it is expired. So, I guess I'll wait to find out the status. At least the site saved my shopping cart.

Hi,
I tried the SXSW Coupon Code this morning and it said it expired on March 31st. I thought I read that the Wacky Package Forum Members were going to have a discount going forward. Is there another discount code?
Thanks,

I agree with that. If needed, we here on the forum could easily give a reference scan of any sticker in case any original artwork is in question when being cleaned up.
