Really nice collaborations here. I think Pat's Wacky characters keep getting better and better.

Trading to complete the set is going to be difficult  :sad:

It will be challenging, but at least there are no more Ludlows gumming up the works!!

I'd be interested to know how many unique buyers there were - maybe 150?  I only bought one set, but I'm betting a lot of people bought multiples hoping that the collation gods gave them full sets.  I wonder if we'll get them before February goes on sale.  If so, I'm betting collation will play a heavy role in the print run for next month.

I bought 2 sets. I’ll have to settle for fewer coupons as this is too expensive for me.

I purchased one set. No interest in coupons or playing cards so hoping to trade multiples of those for Wonky's with the aim of not having to buy all 3 of the wonky's I do not get in my pack.

I ordered one set as well.  I love these new Wackys but I considered just buying a regular set on ebay and calling it a day.  I love the Wonkys and the playing cards look great as well.  But it is frustrating to me as a collector to have to spend so much money and not even get a set.  As others have mentioned, I wish Topps would simply offer options to buy a regular set, Wonky set, playing card set, etc so that one could simply pay for what one wants.  I'll probably end up selling my playing cards knowing I'll never get the complete set and may or may not do the same with the Wonkys.  But I do look forward to enjoying the regular set of 20 as the ones I've seen so far look terrific.

I'm only buying just one $60 set monthly, considering I was spending $15 a week for last year's weekly sets. So I'm spending the same amount in a month's time. The only drawback is I was getting an extra coupon or Ludlow and GA or Wonky cards weekly on top of the 5 weekly base cards, where now it's just one Wonky per month. Not really into the playing cards. I was getting 7 cards weekly for a total of 28 cards in a month's time (in a normal 4-week month). How many cards do we get now for the monthly set?

It’s basically the same:  28 cards.
20 base + 4 unique + 4 dupe/alt backs
The bonus is no more Lud backs in the dupes! Which is huge, as those were worthless.

Looking at the contents configuration, I'd rather get 2 Wonkys and not so many coupons. I don't count the checklist card as the 28th card.

I agree. I've just been going to ebay and buying base sets or what I want. I also buy base sets from some of the good folks here!

Topps would have gotten more money from me each month if I could have bought the subsets individually and I'm sure many other collectors would have as well.

Hopefully someone at Topps monitors this forum, will crunch some numbers, and consider this in future offerings.

Just got a shipping notice. Far sooner than I’d have guessed, with the slowness of the weekly sets

I noticed that too, but went by the countdown clock. It might have confused a few people, though.

Yep, they should word it differently next month - "Available one week only!"

Nice job to all involved.  Now just have to remember the next set.  I wish they had some sort of text or email notification when they are available.
