I would buy 4 sets in a heartbeat if I was guaranteed all 4 different black border cards.

If anyone on here gets the Dr. Ono sketch, I'd be willing to trade for it.

TIME FOR A VERY IMPORTANT REMINDER: There's just 1 more day left to grab your Wonky Ad sets!!!

IN OTHER NEWS: For those that have purchased already, send me a PM with your favorite character and your contact info and I'll pick one name to draw a CUSTOM WONKY AD SKETCH! Keep in mind, this is just for fun and not sponsored by Topps.

Gooooood luck!!!

Very cool Neil! I'll refrain since I got an Attacky Packages sketch last time.

Thanks again to Neil. For anyone interested, below is the Wonky Ad sketch I received. Two of my three collecting passions are Wackies (and other parody items) and dinosaur card sets. This was a terrific crossing of the streams. Also below are some sketch items that Neil did several years ago associated with a Topps Dino card release.

I'm embarrassed I have to ask, but what is your third collecting passion?

It’s a silly one, but… time machines. Things like toys or replicas of the various time machines from books, movies, television show, cartoons, etc. Some are easy. There are tons of TARDIS items out there. Some are more challenging to get representation for. For the television show TIME TUNNEL, I had to settle for a picture and a patch used on one of the uniforms from the show.

What do you have from "It's About Time"?

Lol. Could never find a toy specifically from the show. I have a die-cast Frendship 7 Mercury capsule that's been sitting on my work table for about 6 years. Been meaning to try and modify it by adding some weird landing jets like they had protruding from the one on the television series. But mostly the memories of the ear-bug opening theme and Gronk's, "ooh, ooh!".

Joe E. Ross' line of "Ooh, ooh!" was also uttered by two Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters - Botch in Help! It's the Hair Bear Bunch! and Sargeant Flint in Hong Kong Phooey, two series that I watched back in the day.

“It’s about time…
It’s about space…

It’s about time I slap your face!”

Longer version:

(At beginning of show)
It's about time, it's about space,
About two men in the strangest place.
It's about time, it's about flight -
Traveling faster than the speed of light.
This is the tale of the brave crew
As through the barrier of time they flew.
Past a fighting minuteman,
Past an armored knight,
Past a Roman warrior,
To this ancient site.
It's about caves, cavemen too,
About a time when the earth was new.
Wait'll they see what is in sight!
Is it good luck or is it good night?
It's about two astronauts, it's about their fate,
It's about a woman and her prehistoric mate.

(At end of show)
It's about time, it's about space,
About two men in the strangest place.
They will be here right on this spot
No matter if they like it or not.
How will they live in this primitive state?
Will help ever come before it is too late?
Will they ever get away? Watch each week and see!
Will they be returning to the 20th Century?
It's about time for our goodbyes
To all these prehistoric gals and guys. IT'S ABOUT TIME!

Marc, my version was something we used to say as kids... obviously based on the theme song! I remember the theme song well! It's a shame Topps didn't release the trading cards.

Not that I'm aware of. The current hobby knowledge is that the issue didn't even make it to the test phase before being canceled. I believe the only thing that has ever turned up is that box partial, probably an internal mock-up.

within just a couple hours, I received a notice my Wonkys were out for delivery

then received a notice that the package had arrived in town too late to get on a delivery truck, and a new delivery date pending

then eventually got a notice they were actually delivered

I do wonder about Fedex at times.


Fairly good collation, maybe? And all my sketch cards were stellar!
There are several of the Wonky variations that showed up 50/50 to the standard,
but the remaining are tougher at 1/5, 1/10 or harder
