Topps at Comic Con!
« on: July 01, 2014, 06:05:25 PM »
It looks like Topps will be at Comic Con this year!  Here are some details:

I know it seems to be all GPK so maybe I should have posted in non-Wacky BUT I am hoping for a Wacky promo!

There's always hope, but I think it would have been included with the announcement.
 I'm hoping for something at NYCC

These images were posted on the Blowout Cards forum.  No Wacky's but some fun promos will be given out.

I noticed they did have one GPK promo card (Comic Conner) and one over-sized "Jumbo Card" set that included Comic Conner at Comic Con...

Awesome picture, at first I thought the axe and sword were digitaly added to that pic! 
My girlfriend and I are Wacky Pack collectors, since 2008

Luke, thanks.  No the sword and axe are real.  The picture is totally old school.  That's the way we like it around here.  😀

Alex, we did but it's a marathon!  There is very little non-sports and no Wackys but almost every other fan base is covered.

A few shots from the New York Comic Con.  Topps booth was smaller this year, and the only wackys were packs for sale!

Nope, I was hoping, but absolutely nothing. All GPK, not even Mars Attacks like last year.

a couple of Topps exclusives just got listed for NYCC 2015, but both are GPK items.
Bummer.
