I just placed an order for 3 comics and some other Wacky stuff. There was no indication on the order that I was eligible for any of the extras, so I will spend the next week on tenterhooks hoping it all works out.

Did the same no mention of any fun packs...I think it will be automatic once the see the level of spend...its all documented anyway... :]

They should be scheduled for April, just don't know the date yet.

But not within the April 1 to April 3 time frame Neil?

I hope to hear sometime today about these items.

On a related note, I believe that they'll be free shipping on orders over $100!

I just ordered 3 copies of the new comic to get the 4 card set. Total = 50.85 + 9.29 (UPS ground) = 60.14. This stuff is cool and fun, but I just feel like Topps is taking advantage of the hardcore collectors. I know I don't have to order this stuff, but c'mon. I also don't like the steep price increase everytime something is released. They could have at leaset provided free shipping like last time.

Ok i bit the bullet and ordered $100 worth. I considered trying to come up with $200 worth but then I worried about depriving others of fun packs or maybe not even getting one since there is an unknown  supply.

I bit the bullet too.

I didn't get the Holiday Comic before (due to shipping) so managed to buy: 3 April Fool's comics, 3 Holiday comics and 1 Groundhog Daze comic.

Total: $100.65

I can't believe those topps bastards are charging shipping on these. Not only that, they're now charging shipping on Groundhog Daze when previously it was included in the price.

Arrgh! They just added the new cereal boxes. And I just placed an order earlier for the 3 comics, a box of posters and a postcards binder. From the description, it appears there are bonus cards this time.

Topps states "While Supplies Last".   I would guess that Topps produced about 1000 fun paks but possibly a few more. Will Topps notify you when the fun paks are gone?  I would hate to place an order and not receive the fun paks.

Another bummer - I added the 3 cereals, and 3 comic books - $98.xx. I wanted to get a 16 pack box of ans10 to get the box & pack codes & a display box, wrapper & pack. - OUT OF STOCK...

I was able to just place an order for the funpacks so I loaded up the truck.  I see they have since removed this ordering link.  Will be interesting to see how many I receive.

I didn't see a link to just funpacks. How much did they cost you?

Brad I am with you on that.  I need a binder not anything else, however I will order the 100.00 to get 1 fun pack and free shipping when the binder becomes available.

Thanks for the info. I just went ahead and bought a few extra OLDS4 boxes. It's odd Topps wasn't prepared with ANS10 binders?

I called Topps and they said they are out of the fun packs.






OK, April Fools! Someone had to do it ;D

To be clear, I did not call anyone at Topps, I know nothing about the fun packs.

Do we know if the cereal boxes contain anything other than 18 base stickers and one bonus cereal sticker per box?

Wow!  The price jump for Groundhog Daze was acceptable to me only because it included shipping.  I'm going to have to think on whether I want the Wonky cards enough to order these instead of just picking up an extra comic book from someone here.

I notice comic #2 is not listed, guess it sold out.

Purchased: 3 4/1 Comics, 3 ANS 10 Cereal Sets, 1 Yellow PC Binder.  Total $118.   Free Shipping.

Was on the fence and would have preferred an ANS 10 Binder. I think I will put my ANS10 Cards
in the Yellow PC Binder and not buy the ANS 10 Binder when it finally shows up.  Hoping for a cool
4/1 Sketch.  Time will tell.

Yup, still laughing over the year I decided to let greg go for several days thinking I scored the diecut mother load.   It was perfect as I was in Massachusetts anyway and I believe I posted my hotel phone# in case anyone wanted to verify I was up there.

Bummer. Was going to order stuff including the new ANS 10 Series box, but it is sold out. What the hell kind of Wacky Package Day celebration is this when you run out of the latest series? If they ran out of that, then the fun packs are probably gone too. That's what I get for checking as soon as I got home from work. This is really bad that you cant even order on the 1st day. I knew what I was going to order and it is not available after all the hoopla.
