Did anyone put together a list of the sketch artists for MLB?  I checked the master list but no luck.

Neil, I don't think Jon did sketches this time around but he did do some great concepts!

Ha! You're right! He mentioned he did some concepts so I figured he also did sketch cards.

I bought a blaster box of these over the weekend at Target.  I didn't really find any of them funny, which is rare for Wacky Packages.  Usually at least a couple cards will make me laugh out loud and several others, I will at least appreciate the cleverness of the parody.  With these, it felt like they were throwing soft balls at the teams.  I assume this is because it's a licensed product and Topps can't afford to actually offend any MLB teams with biting parody.

Wacky Packages were the first trading cards I collected in the early 80s back when they were 25 cents a pack.  Then Garbage Pail Kids, and then I got into baseball cards.  As a baseball card, Topps, and Wacky Packages fan, I am definitely the target demo for this product, but it just doesn't appeal to me.  I have a feeling this will soon be on clearance on sites like dacardworld for a few bucks.

Your observation seem to be  correct Rictor, I was in Target in Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii today, they had ten sticker packs discounted, $1.79 each. It was a full gravity box not even picked over.
This is the first time I have ever seen wackys discounted in Hawaii were not much seems to get discounted. I did pick up my first six packs of the series.

OK, so I think I finally completed my page of card 58 White Sox Relish.  Was able to score the elusive 1/5 lumber on eBay last week.  Never saw or found a leather but didn't expect to.  Overall I really enjoyed collecting this set.

That set really glows!  Congrats. That was not easy to put together. I bet a leather card finds its way to one day.

Andrews, "glows" I get it!  Thanks for the kudos it took 4 months of checking eBay every day until I scored the lumber.

Neil, thanks.  I also put together a small collection of Relish sketches but unfortunately wasn't able to score one of yours.

Nice!!! That is a tough set to get together, one of almost everything for even just one image. I've seen just ONE leather card on ebay! A

Alex, thanks!  The leathers being 1/3 and only found in a 2 card silver pack inside bonus boxes made them nearly impossible to find!  I know of only one other one (pulled by our own Zenegizer) being found in the wild.  Kinda reminds me of your WP 2014 Wacky Back score.  To date that's the only Wacky Back from that series that has turned up.

Given the subject matter... a true grand slam.

Did the star autograph and ticket relic cards come in regular packs or just hobby or collector boxes? I'm still chasing some of those and was thinking of picking up packs/boxes from eBay.
