Thanks Neil, for those who are interested here is my rough for the Terrible TV gag listed on eBay.




Wow! You did that over a year ago. Are they already painting ANS2?

Brad, yes, WP 2014 Series 1 was in development for awhile.  I think it may have been pushed because of Chrome.

My target in Kansas City has a gravity feed.  I was surprised to see the clear window on the wrappers (just like Chrome).  Is that the new standard wrapper for Wackys?

Clear window wrappers is very surprising.  I'm dying to see the packs and box.  Post any pictures, please!

This clear-window pack from an ebay auction shows one of the 2014 titles that I painted:

Fred, thanks for posting.  Your painting looks really great and the pack design looks pretty sharp.  Can't wait till they arrive in California!

I believe Blowout is sold out, at least for now - the website no longer shows price info.

Get ready for another round of "Fingering Frenzy" at Targets all across America. I wonder if WalMart will get cards this time around. Chrome was the first rlease they did not stock but Chrome was more collector focused.
Hopefully this release will be carried in more places.

I wonder if some of the never released Star Wars Wacky Packages entries will end up in this series, maybe as bonus stickers?

I would think this release was locked down in terms of titles prior to the Star Wars release self-destructing.

Up in Watertown NY on my way to see my son play soccer at St Lawrence in Canton NY today.

Hit a Target. No 2014 Series one but they did have unfingered Chrome. Nothing to report sketch wise.

The last time I have been to a Target store was in October 2014 when that store still had the Wacky Packages Chrome 4 card see through packs.

Anyone read the odds from a retail pack yet? Curious to learn if they did the alternate versions of a few base cards this time. The altered art cards in chrome were cool. The ANS 11 variations were very subtle.

I thought the ANS11 pack odds didn't mention the "C" backs.  Am I mistaken?

You are not mistaken, but chrome did mention odds for mixed up art cards which are pretty much the same thing so I figured maybe they would start disclosing that info with this release.

Cardboard Connection has a good rundown on the "C" cards for the newest Garbage Pail Kids set. The odds for "C" cards in GPK 2014 Series 2 is stated as 1:100 packs.

The site also tackles the set's art variations:

Thanks.  I didn't kill any ANS11 packs and pretty much ended up with no idea of rarity, etc.  Not even sure where my sample wrapper is.  I'm looking forward to killing packs this time!  I'll try to keep track of what comes from each type of case.

Always exciting when a new release hits. I tend to get a little obsessive compulsive in terms of checking this site for updates/ insights scores.  ;)

I confirmed with Blowout just now that they are presently sold out.  They'll let me know if they get more in, and I'll post when I hear any info.
