New Cheapa Pet Wacky Up Now. They changed the Category Description to remove the 2016 Designation.
Still numbered with the disg-race to the white set, along with 3 GPKs. supposedly these will keep going until January 20th. I'm sure topps will just start up a new political set at that point.
Although there is also a new GPK category starting today - Network Spews, with Maria Carey as card #1.

Interesting - to get the bundle price for cards #117-120 from the disg-race set, you have to buy the first card in the spew set.

And then you're sucked into buying an unknown number more if you're an ocd completist...

Nice one, Dave!  I could tell right away it was your artwork, very impressive! 

And I'm equally impressed how you got that tag line on the bottom by Topps, the
one that mentions Trump's "opening"  ;)

Coronation Trump-et is now up for sale

A rather odd looking trumpet. More of a bugle with faux valves, and a reed mouthpiece.

Agreed on all points - that is the weirdest trumpet I have ever seen.  I like the elephant gag!

I love these, keep 'em coming!  A bit pricey, sure, no argument there, but we all wanted Wackys, we got 'em!

And for the record on who is getting skewered:

Trump 13
Jill Stein 1
Hillary 0
Bernie Sanders 0
(and we had one general election parody, Duck and Hide)

I haven't been purchasing any of these, but wasn't there one with Hillary wearing the man's jacket? or was that GPK, so we don't talk about it? lol.

Don't think so, it must have been a GPK one.

And kudos as well to these other titles, such as the Golden Groans and the accompany GPK Disg-race cards.  They are coming out so quickly, my compliments to the artists who are obviously not even sleeping so they can crank these out!

yep, it was from that 'other' topps series...  ;)
and actually, there are quite a few of those GPK Hilary's that show her sporting a man's jacket

It's a "trump-et", so yes, weird is the correct way to describe it ;)

there's also been a couple of the recent GPKs that have shown Trump in women's shirts and jackets, so we're getting some fair play on that one now.

Another nice one, Dave!  In fact, Hillary's hair almost looks identical to Donald's!  :P

I meant to pick this one up but didn't order in time.  If anyone bought extras, maybe we can do a trade.

Just a heads up that the Disg-Race set ends next Thursday. After that there will be a new series which will also have WP cards in it and then WP 50th and Old School 6 for this year. Possibly some other online stuff so WP will be represented all year long.

Thanks for the heads up. So can we expect three Wackies per week going forward ($30 per week)? I need to plan my Wacky Expenditures.

Thanks,  Andrew

Don't know. It could be one or two or three. I don't know the format or plans for any of the new stuff yet. Will LYK when I do.
