Mine says delivery next business day. I take it that would be Monday. Did you pay for expedited delivery?

[vahsurfer]

Common Common!!!!! Bring the Package!!!!

[Monsterettes]

Got my boxes this morning -- this time around Topps' service has been great, at least sending a package to New York.  My sketches below.  I can't seem to color correct very well on my scanner.  The sketches don't really have that sepia tone.

Elizabeth, terrific pulls!  It's great that you got 6 different artists.  I love the way Ron Comes colored the borders on his sketch.

Gosh, I hadn't yet noticed that Ron colored the border.  Great observation! I'm still in a wacky haze of Old School joy.  Thanks to Dave Gross -- and all the artists who participated -- for a truly excellent series!!

And thanks Joe for posting your "Creeps" in the other thread.  I didn't get one of your sketches, so it's great to have a chance to see your work.  Looking forward to more showing up in this thread soon as everyone posts their pulls!

Here are my sketch pulls.  The first 8 are from the case, and the Gatoraid is from the single box.  I'm very pleased!!  I love the way Mark got Gurgle into the Forgers sketch!

Those are some beauties Pat -- great pulls!!

[grabowski67]

Only ordered 2 boxes and this was pulled. It was a lucky day because I also opened a bonus box of chrome wackys from Target and got a cyan printing plate. Should have also played the lottery that day ...LOL

Nice pulls Pat

[RawGoo]

I'm hoping everyone is as pleased with their sketch pulls as I am.  Maybe the lower production run and increased number of sketch artists will result in happier customers.

I bet if you had bought a lottery ticket that day, You would have won at least something on it.

Congratz on pulling one of my sketch cards! This is the first one I've seen online! 

[BumChex]

Here is what I pulled. So far these are looking really good.

Low and behold, the delivery to Johns Hopkins hospital arrived today about 3pm. Starting to open now.

All of those are great, and I particularly like King O'Scare. Congrats Brad!

Thanks. Great looking card. Keep up the good work

Thank you Grabowski67!  I hope to see more of my cards hitting the surface soon!

Is it me or does that Hoo Has look like Mr. Hankey?

Hahaha, he does.... I was thinking about that when I was coloring him!

Holy Cow! Those are amazing!  That's the best random pull of sketches I've seen yet.  I didn't even bother buying any boxes this time as I'm so tired of pulling crappy sketches, so I'm glad to see a fellow collector score big!

I think maybe the reduced print run and the large number of sketch artists gave the artists more time to spend on each of their sketches.  I sure don't have any complaints!

Does anyone know what the print run was of this series?

Dave previously mentioned it was more like Old School 1, which was around 3,500 boxes.

I just opened my one and only box and I pulled this sketch card; Delinquent Spinach by Neil Camera 





I miss the top row of my nine puzzle though

[Joe G.]

Since a number of my Bug Wally sketches have shown up on eBay I thought it would be cool to post the set I did.  Since Bug Wally is from the 13th series I placed him in and with characters from that series.  My fav is the Umbrella.

I agree Joe, they are all great, but Bug Wally / Umbrella is special!

I really like this group of sketches!  Great idea to weave Bug Wally into a variety of poses with other characters; really fun to see them all together!

Perhaps, but based on some of the stuff I've seen on ebay, I think your group is in the top third tier of sketch cards from this set!

[barfwimpson]

Great set!

I didn't hit the lucky tattoo mix with my three boxes to finish the set (got the same lot of 6 titles in two of the boxes), which seems to mean the rest (which I haven't sorted out yet) probably won't collate too well, but I'm sure I'm good on the tans and probably the whites and regular ludlows maybe.  I'm hoping to get a few more boxes once I replenish funds.
I'm really glad to have a fifth set of these to add to the other four and I'm hoping there's a sixth based on 70's products. No need to get to the 80's yet! 

Here are my sketches, all nice ones including the recently discussed "Bug Wally / Umbrella" combo from Joe G's cool subset.



I'm not much of a sketch collector so these are on Ebay for anyone interested in any of them.

I agree!     That one is awesome.
