Any recollection as to the toppers?

Any recollection as to the toppers?

Alpoo had both Minute Mud and ebayer.  A Freetoes topper had Minute Mud, and Pollydent topper had ebayer.

If you mean, did I take them out of their Series 2 wrappers, then yes, I did.  I guess ebayer can be determined by feel, but Minute Mud is basically like Hungry Jerk Pucks.  I thought that was what I'd get when I opened that pack, and busted out in a ginormous smile when I saw orange.  Posted immediately.  Then, in my glee, I opened the next one in that cup and it was ebayer!!!  It was so soon after that I was able to modify my post without having the modification time register.

In later cups, one had a Minute Mud in it, and another had ebayer.  So, now I have an extra set of all 60 Series 1 "commons" to sell or trade.

I also pulled a Black Cram.

It couldn’t have happened to a better person. Congratulations!

Thanks!  I showed up at my mom's house an hour later with a big dopey grin on, I guess, because my mom took one look at me and asked what I found that made me so happy

Pat,
Thanks for posting this information.  I told my wife to go and hit the Wal-Mart for them.  She says she found a few of the toppers you mentioned.  Then she sends me a picture of a box and on top is an E-Bayer. (the front is facing down but how many yellow big pieces are there?)  I tell her to get that one right away.  I then tell her that we have a great chance to finally get the Minute Mud and she says she saw that one two.  So now I have both pieces on the top of the cups.  I think those will hit E-bay while the E-baying is good.  I do know what I will be doing in my area on Sunday.

Please take pics of the cups before you open them!!!  I think those pics will help document that these titles were in fact released in Series 2 instead of Series 1.

I wish I could go out again tomorrow, but I can't 

[jleonard1967]

Pat,
I sent you pictures to your hotmail account as I don't know how to get them on here.  Maybe you can post them

I might have fainted right there in the Walmart checkout aisle if I had found one of these!!!

Got eBayer today. Freetoes had Eviltime sparkle instead of Minute Mud.

Alpoo had both Minute Mud and ebayer.  A Freetoes topper had Minute Mud, and Pollydent topper had ebayer.

That's amazing, Pat, that you found one cup with both in it!  Congrats! 

What I'm wondering now is if there is a whole new wave of series 2 that are showing up in Walmart with MM and Ebayer in them.  If so, how would one distinguish between the Walmart series 2 with MM and ebayer in them and the ones without ebayer in them.  Has anyone checked the code or anything else to see if there is a difference?

[JailOJohn]

Im just jealous! Our wal marts here (i went to three) are not even carrying the minis..

At Patrick's request, I checked the codes.  Although I didn't see a difference in the cups, the boxes I bought Saturday had Lot# SICDUYHDG0421, instead of .....121.  But, two weeks prior, those boxes also had the ...421 code, and I did not find either Minute Mud or Ebayer.

Thanks for that info, Pat!  I'll try to take careful notes should I find any of the MM's or ebayer in any boxes.  I sometimes wonder if individual cups were moved from one box to another.

Those are the super rare (possibly non-existent) minis from Series One, which are now showing up in Series Two. Are there any super rare titles in Series Two???

I haven't seen too many of the Red Sparkle Commies. One just sold on eBay for $340, but I imagine with that sale price more will show up soon.

     I sold the first red Commie for $200 to a friend and finally found another for my set.  These were both found in the 10 piece multi packs.

     Matt.

[crackedjerk]

I went to Target yesterday not expecting to find anything to buy in terms of the minis but looking nonetheless.  I was surprised to find half a dozen of the 10-packs there (for $9.99).  I hadn't bought a single one of the multipacks as I didn't want to take a chance on maybe getting one mini I needed (and half the six minis found in the multipacks weren't of much interest to me anyway).  But I couldn't resist and did buy one.  I haven't opened it yet as I was curious if there is any info about which of the "multipack minis" are in the 10-packs based on what minis are showing.  In the pack I bought, the top row is Thefty, Milk Foam, and Pollydent.  Anyone know which "scarce" mini would be inside?  And has anyone else found these at Target?

I stopped at Walmart on the way home with a small shopping list and decided to check out the Wacky minis. I found these two cups. Notice that both titles are so embarrassed by the way Super Impulse handled their release, they are trying to stay incognito.   . It’s kind of hard to see in the photo, but the label is coming off MM.

I know this was answered before, but these days everything changes month to month, sometimes week to week, as far as what stores are stocking. Are you guys finding these at Wal Mart in the toy aisle or in the baseball card aisle? Or even at the checkouts?

Pretty much every time I've found Minis at walmart, they are in the checkout lines.  Usually one or two boxes per checkout line.  One store did have tons of boxes in one checkout line and none at any other, but even that store has since changed to one or two per (most) checkout lines.

Our local Walmarts have them in the checkout lanes opposite the register on the bottom shelf. The Targets I have been in have them in the toy section. Our local 5 Below has them in a section close to odds and ends toys where they have some card items.

Can anyone tell me if the Series 1 Gadzooka is a super rare title? There are very few on eBay and trying to figure out if I can still find one in the wild since many of my stores still carry the Series 1 at Walmarts and Targets. If so, which cup are they usually found in by looking at the title on top?

The Gadzooka was only found in two cup blister packs.  I know those are still on Amazon, but don't know whether a Target might have them. 

[studio805]

Looks like Amazon is having a clearance sale. The blind packs are only .95cents

Yeah, 95¢ but the shipping is $5, and they are only selling them one at a time.

A couple Targets near me have the two-cup blister packs.  I bought a handful (maybe half a dozen), but never got a Gadzooka.  Was fortunate to get a couple in a trade with another collector.

I failed to see that right away, but you are so right. When something is too good to be true, it usually is.

[RawGoo]

I just got a packet with two minis in it (both toothpaste).  A neat error!

Been catching up on this thread.   I was Christmas shopping last week and there was a Walmart nearby so I casually went in to see what I could see, and to my surprise, each checkout aisle had Series 1 boxes, and most were fairly full, as if they had been recently stocked.   Now that I learn Walmart Series 2 cups hold Minute Mud, I am doubly disappointed in my local Walmart for having only Series 1.   Oh the inhumanity!   Now I have to search other local Walmarts to see if they at least have series 2.   Is it true that if the box lot ends in 421 (and not 121) it is the Wave 3 which might include a Minute Mud?

Good news is that both Ebayer and Minute Mud are available as the visible title in the series 2 cups. No need for guessing.

While that is true; Series 2 has not been restocked in most WalMarts so finding a cup with Minute Mud or Ebayer on top is a challenge at present.
The good news is both titles are cheap on ebay.

Over on Greg's forum, a picture of two Commie's got posted last week by a new User.
They pointed out how they had two different minis, where one had a different tagline.

There's been a little discussion on it, and my take at this point is that the tagline change was rather late in production, as so far it seems they have only appeared in late-release Walmart cups
(I say late-release, as I pulled one from an eBayer cup, which weren't around initially).
They have not cropped up in any Target or multi-packs that anyone has records of.

The hit rate for the altered version may be higher than it was for the standard title (which I found to be about 1/Target case). So while there may be fewer of them produced than the originals, they might be easier to hit.  Would be great to get folks to post if they have any and what release they are from.



After seeing that, I looked for stickers and spotted that it too was also released with the text variation.
In both regular print and a bold color version.



Good luck to all the completists out there!

[faustxxx]

     Thanks, my head just exploded, now I wish I never sold that first red sparkle Commie. Having both versions of that rare will be something to shoot for.   After doing some checking in what I have it would seem that the longer tagline is later as I went back to page 10 Scot has a picture of a multi-pack with long version bottom left. I still have yet to find my two sets, but I am assuming at least one would have the variation.

I wonder if there are two versions of the black Commie mini...
