That's a great card. I have to say your cards are always my favorites in these new weekly sets- great work and thank you!   

Thanks! Appreciate it!

*twiddling my thumbs* waiting for my August Week 3 and 4 sets.

11 days ago the packages were 50 miles from me in my state. Since then they have been in 2 other states and only one package's tracking has been updated in the past 4 days.

Hopefully I can get lucky and do some trading if any other extra cards are still around at this point.

Got two shipping notices this evening, glad the catch-up continues.

Are we getting an October week 1 set tomorrow?

I was hoping not, but I believe an October entry has already been shown here.  If there is a new October series introduced today, I will probably drop down to 2 sets.

Only received one shipping notice last night - for September week 2.
Edit - received one this morning for week 3

There will definitely be a set today (and for all October).
Dave has already hinted at most of his titles for the month 👍

Picky Stix painted in 2005 for ANS6 finally sees the light of day! Two more of my unused ANS stickers coming the next few weeks.

The next few Wacky Packages Weekly Series weeks will be all candy related with Halloween on the way?

Will the Wacky Packages Weekly Series weeks in December be all toy related in time for Christmas?

  Finally received my August Week 3 and 4 sets!

  In week 3, I had an major sticking problem with one set but the rest weren't bad. One set I received apparently had 7 base cards; one extra Fisterine and the imfamous blank card.

 Collation was bad in both weeks. Only 3 Coupons and 4 Ludlows, the rest being extras.   In week 4, I got the reverse: 4 Coupons and 3 Ludlows with 3 Ludlow extras.  Spending that kind of money, I can handle maybe needing one card but to me, 3 (or more) is unacceptable.

  Not withstanding, with the shipping delays I doubt I'll find any of the cards I need still lingering around.  Almost makes me want to quit the series, but I like the monster/horrorr theme of the October Week 1 cards so I guess I'll be buying LOL

You mean ANS3 in 2006. I checked it out myself.

I can hardly to see what the other two are and find out which series they would've come from! This All New Weekly Series concept is an absolute godsend for finally publishing Lost Wackys that may not have otherwise been published. Keep it going, please!

Any opinions on when they might finally end these things?  I'm getting tired of hunting for coupon backs, but as long as they're making them, I feel locked in and obligated to find all of them.  ;D

It seems that they won't stop until sales drop too low.  Then they'll say "there's no demand for Wackys."  Sorry, I'm feeling kind of cynical today.........

Busy mail day today.

Received my Sept Week 2 and 3 cards today as well as the new Friday the 13th Box Set.

Week 2:- Got all the cards

Week 3: Only missing one coupon.

I'm tapped out opening 4 boxes of cards in 3 days.

Just a follow up to an earlier issue on the board-

When it comes to September Week 1 Wonky (Flabby's) - does everyone's have "Wacky Packages Initials" on the back or was this corrected?

The "Master Lists" Board shows the regular Wonky back.

All my September Week 1 Wonkys had the Initials back.  I suspect that the Master List was populated assuming that Topps would use the correct backs.........

The good news is that my September Weeks 2 and 3 sets came today, and the Wonkys now have the correct backs.  I also got perfect distribution in both weeks.  The coupons were with the Wonkys and the Ludlows were with the guest artist cards.  And, none seemed sticky.

I need to update the Master List and catch up on September and October info.
I'll be adding that note for that week

Not only did I receive both September weeks 2 and 3 this afternoon, but both had perfect collation and it included one Wacky that I believe will surely become a modern day classic - Paul Harris's Wide Potato Chip!

Perfect collation here, too, for both weeks.  And, they made the corrections to the checklist!

Perfect collation for sept. Week 2, but I fell one coupon and one ludlow short In week 3. Got my missing coupon on eBay & don’t care about the ludlow. Strange both missing cards were for the same product, #15 Wrong Pop.

Perfect for week 2.  For week 3, out of 10 sets, I got 6 coupons (4 for the set and 2 extras), and 4 ludlows.  And there was inconsistency in week 3 as to whether the ludlow or coupon was matched up with the Wonky or Artist card.  Usually there is consistency as to which goes with which.

Yes, I noticed the inconsistency too in week 3, but not in week 2. Week 2 was perfect for me.

Finally have the week #2 sets up

And the card numbering continues to increase, 31-35, after last week's 26-30.
BUT - the checklist shows 1-10 instead.
One of the two is in error. We'll find out in a few weeks what actually gets printed.

I am guilty of buying the monster cereals trio this Halloween season as well.  Mine are the smaller versions though, 11.5 oz I think.

Since receiving the last two mailings from Topps on the same day, I haven't heard anything from Topps is quite a while.  Nothing at all last week.
