Ugh, just received a dreaded Fed-Ex overnight shipping notice on a Friday which equates to a 3 day shipping notice.

Me too.

I think I had a few recently that were actually midweek.  Maybe August and the Wonky Ads?

For last month’s shipment, mine actually went out on a Thursday night and was delivered on Saturday morning.  But that has been the exception.

The September set looks good, but the collation on my playing cards was pretty bad, probably because of the change to 5 cards.  My question is, WHY does the 9 of Clubs have a copyright on it???  I haven't seen that on any before this.

My playing cards and Wonkys were pretty evenly distributed this time, but my coupons were lopsided like crazy.

Fantastic looking wrapper!  Makes me wish I could find actual packs with this actual wrapper.  Miss those pack-busting days  :'(

This isn't a Halloween set, per se, it's the October monthly set - which happens to be chock full of Halloween goodness.

This specific set will be on sale from Oct 13 - Oct 20, only through the Topps website.

We'll have a link to the buy page for the set posted here next week.

I never ordered more than 5 sets from Topps, Today I ordered 10 sets of the October set.  The Drop down states 480.00 for 10 but to complete the sale it says 560.00 for (10).  Just checking is there anything else I need to do to get the 480.00 price?

It's an interesting gimmick that Topps uses to make it seem like an even better deal than it is for multiple sets.

If you notice, there's a little '+' before the $480.  So it's really $60 + $480.  ($60 for the first set, 'plus' $480 for the other nine sets)

Actual total is $540 for 10 sets.

These packs will be interesting for those putting together a couple sets of the playing cards. Five different playing cards with usual 2 cards per pack seems to make the playing cards a bit harder to collate. And, no extra card in each pack like last month which I think was a make-up for the three of clubs issue (2 variations).

Last month already irrevocably messed up the playing cards.......  I had been trading to build 15 sets of 4 each month.  Last month, even with perfect collation and/or trading (said trading still not accomplished) the best I could have done was 12 sets of 5, and I actually have only managed 9 so far.

Scarenstein Bears is another children's book parody. And did Frosted Snakes get spoofed before in ANS1 back in 2004? And what does Cursed and Hairy Mash spoof?

I saw Brent Engstrom's instagram, so Hairy Mash is satirizing some candy called Cherry Mash. Also, for all we know Frosted Snakes is based on Indiana jones.

Does Pix cereal spoof Kix cereal or Trix cereal?
