Do you think they'll ever release this playing-card themed set as a base set at some point, or did one have to be collecting them all along to end up with a set at the end?
I do hope they'll make an actual deck of cards at some point, though. There's a lot of online companies where anyone can make their own custom cards, so it can't be that expensive to make by just uploading the scans to one of those places. I would think in mass they could do it for 20 or 25 bucks a deck and still turn a profit. But I would think collectors would pay a little more than that for the priviledge of playing poker with Wackys. I remember now that some time after that stellar 1999 Wacky Reunion at Jeff's, we talked about having a high-stakes poker game where each of us put up an equally weak piece of art, like Bum&Mable, 6Urp, Nertz, Blecch, Cricket, Similecch, RotsaRoot, etc. (I made sure to include 3 I used to own so as not to be insulting). That would have been fun and nerve-wracking to play, though. Entry fee, original art. Winner take all. No-limit Texas Hold'em. But there was other talk about playing a regular game where we use puzzle pieces and common stickers as chips. Shoe would have had a massive advantage in that one with all his minty puzzles.
Did anyone ever play an actual poker for Wackys game since then?
