The binder should be out in late October. No deals that I know of. If I can get a pic of some sketch cards or the tattoos I'll post them.

Thanks for update and the email. Revving up my Paypal now to be ready for the purchase tomorrow. Will they push out some orders tomorrow if they go on sale before close of business? I would love to have these by Friday.

I agree!  Looks like Dave really nailed that.  It's that kind of detail that I feel is missing from too much of the ANS stuff these days and part of what makes me excited for Old School.

I take it this is not a pre-order, so we could have these puppies in our hot little hands by very early next week.

I think they actually arrive there on Thursday. I can't say when they are shipped. He said mine would be here to me next week so I'm going to assume they start mailing Thursday and Friday.

Yes, it's not a pre-order. People will have them next week.

Sketches will now be located in a pack. Here is an example:




There are 20 different characters (15 original series and 5 Old School series 5)

If I haven't mentioned it yet: the print run is lower again this series. Closer to, if not the same, as series 1.

It is very smart to have the sketch cards within the packs. Now, 24 pack boxes won't be dumped
on eBay for $3 or $4 a box.

LOL. OK, got the email about the new Olds Series and thought it was going up today?  Anyone know the ETA on this.  Sounds like a great series.

If only all the sketches were this nice! My boxes will probably contain the usual - crude, phoned-in line drawings where others here will show off their nice color sketch masterpieces. My luck is really bad. Hopefully it will change with these!

That's enough for 11 pieces of penny candy, at least.
(Ok, 5 pieces, since penny candy is now 2 cents).

Three boxes for me. Free shipping would be nice, but a little under $10 as it is for 3 boxes isn't too bad, and $52.99 a box on these is still a very good price, given their quality and that they are a true limited edition.
Plus, maybe there are some surprises in the packs not yet mentioned. Topps has been pretty good at that these last few years.

Great news and a savvy decision by Topps.

Same here.  They were in stock five minutes ago when I checked on my tablet.  Sat down at my PC to order and boom - out of stock.

Damn...  Have I actually missed out on an Old School release? [Edit:  Thankfully, it was just a glitch - I was able to get my three-box order in!!]

Hooray!  After bumping into that Out-of-Stock message earlier, I was able to get in my order for THREE boxes just now. 

Very much looking forward to this series!
