Tootsie Troll
« on: May 21, 2016, 02:43:33 PM »
Anyone know the backstory on this? It's for a 2010 Postcard "Tootsie Troll" bio card which, according to the seller, was pulled before production with only about 10 being given to the artists. Apparently it went pretty far in the development process but got pulled before production - yet it still showed up with Starbeast!

Mitch, thanks for posting.  It's cool that things like this can turn up!  I guess no matter how complete you think your collection is, there still might be hidden gems to find!

This made me giggle a little... "I believe 10 or so exist and were given to the Artist as proofs or payment  for working on the release.   Up for auction is a rare chance to own this one of a kind card."

Or more aptly... a 10 of a kind card.  :-[

This also helps explains why it showed up on a postcard along with STARBEAST, but no released  bonus card or bio card. There were sketch cards with TOOTSIE TROLL. Here was a 3  6 (corrected) piece sketch puzzle...



Some other sketch cards...

Hi Scott,

    Glad I made you giggle this is a one of a kind card x 10 but I only sold one of the 10 :D

I remember collecting a similar puzzle back in the day and I thought it was a 6 piece puzzle. There was a 6 piece starbeast too. Was there also a 3 piece or is this the 6 or am I remembering wrong?

 Also just to be correct, it is a six piece puzzle not a three, three would have been a lot cheaper to complete LOL>

I do remember chasing all those pieces around way back when. It was fun to put together but I have long since passed that along.

I'm surprised it didn't go higher.  If I had known about the auction, I'd have bid on it.

I'm confused by this thread. There is an unreleased bio card for Tootsie Troll? Is there a link to the auction or a JPG photo of it? All I see is a 6-card sketch puzzle that someone posted.
