Ran out to Target and picked up some packs of these! Can't believe they had them in stock. Gonna start crackin', expecting doubles so I'll be ready for some trading.  ;D

Lucky you!  I was right by my Target today and thought I should stop by on the off chance they were there.  Then I convinced myself that there's no way they would be and blew it off.  Geez, I'd at least feel better if the box I ordered months ago would have arrived.

Looking forward to it ;D Let the trading begin!

OK here's the dealeo. I opened 8 packs and got this:

2 Boreo's - 2 Boreo Cards
1 Cavemanwich - Cavemanwich Card
1 Creeps - 1 Creeps Card
2 Deadbull's - 2 Deadbull Cards
1 Drool-Aid - 1 Drool-Aid Card
1 Foul - 1 Foul Card
2 Frosted Snakes - 2 Frosted Snakes Cards
1 Lapton - 1 Lapton Card
1 Mice Krispies - 1 Mice Krispies Card
2 Minature Maids - 2 Minature Maid Cards
1 Prickles - 1 Prickles Card
2 Slacker jacks - 2 Slacker jack Cards
2 Spites - 2 Spite Cards
0 ZitKat - 1 Zit Kat Card
1 Mtn Dude - 1 Mtn Dude Card
3 Chimps Ahoy - 2 Chimps Ahoy Cards
1 Just for Wolfmen - 1 Just for Wolfmen Card

Each pack has cards that are (usually) the same as the erasures inside. I did get some that were mixed, ZitKat and Chimps Ahoy.

I also have 8 checklist cards, but they are all the same. Dont know if this was a mistake or if others exsist. They show cards 19 to 24 and mention that 21,22,23 and 24 are rare. The packs state that the "rare" eraser are 1 in every 4 pack odds. So they are not impossible to obtain.

Interesting that the only title you got 3 of was a rare one. How well are the labels affixed to the erasures?

1 in 4 packs is not "Rare" IMO.  "Limited" might be a better term for those 4 titles.

OK, here is some more info, 24 titles. four are said to be rare Numbers 21-24 the stickers have white backs. here are more pics.





mark, how did you find the condition of the stickers?  Are the corners all bent from the packs or do the flatten out after they are out a while.

Rob,

  As long as they are not creased they flatten out well most corners are sharp, all in all they look good!

When you say that four titles are rare, do you mean the cards, the erasers, or both?

CONFIRMED: WALMART HAS EM!   I went to the local Walmart at lunch and purchased a full
gravity feed box of 24 packs. A few thoughts while opening:

- Wrapper collectors rejoice... these wrappers are indestructable and can easily be opened
   without tears, rips. etc. In fact, I opened 23 of 24 without incident using the
   "potato chip bag" technique.

- Stickers are album sized and are somewhat warped and bent due to being in bags but looks
   like they will snap back into place once in an album page or pressed in some fashion.  

- Be a little cautious when removing the erasers from the wrappers. A few of the beverage can
  shaped erasers wanted to stick to the inside of the wrapper due to a little extra glue. Not sure
  how hard it would be to accidentally rip one of the labels off but be careful.

I only had time to collate the stickers. I will post the collation in a bit and the erasers collation later
this evening.

Happy hunting.

I don't understand your question
each pack has 3 stickers, one each to match the 3 erasers in the pack.
tough eraser = tough card

I'm not so sure yet... I haven't collated my erasers yet but I often only had 2 erasers match the cards in each wrapper. I ended up with 5 of some of the "scarce" titles (stickers) so I am beginning to wonder if its the erasers that are "scarce".

Interesting pieces for sure. Buying them feels like you have a pack of gummi bears in your hands.

What I opened in four packs are as follows:

3 Fool, 1 Zit Kat, 1 Boreo, 1 Creeps, 1 Geek Giant, 1 Jelly Bully, 1 Drool-Aid, 2 Dead Bull, 1 Sneeze-It

I purchased a Gravity Feed at Target that had 23 packs in it. I paid $1.99 per pack.
I got 5 "Rare" Erasers/ Stickers out of the 23 packs. All Erasers had the Corresponding Stickers in the packs.
I only need Mice Crispees #14 Eraser /Sticker to complete the set. I will trade Two Stickers and Two Erasers to get the one last set I need. My traders are:  1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10 11, 12, 13, 15, 18 , 19 20

The list
1.   Boreo
2.   Capn Crutch
3.   CaveManWich
4.   Creeps
5.   Dead Bull
6.   Demented
7.   Ditz
8.   Drool Aid
9.   Fool
10.   Frosted Snakes
11.   Geek Giant
12.   Jelly Bully
13.   Lapton
14.   Mice Krispies
15.   Miniature Maid
16.   Prickles
17.   Slacker Jack
18.   Sour Puss
19.   Spite
20.   Zit Kat
21.   Mountain Dude
22.   Chimps Ahoy
23.   Sneez It
24.   Wolfmen
Right, Series 7's JUST FOR WOLFMEN is the 24th title and one of the four RARE erasers/stickers (meaning you can only find one in one out of every four packs).

Here's something I found interesting today, I hit three different TARGET stores near me in NY and got three full Gravity Feed Boxes....in each of these three seperate stores I was charged $1.99 per pack, not $2.99 per pack!!!!!!!

Apparently Target incorrectly priced the erasers since those of us who purchased them were not charged the $2.99 as is listed on the box.

Okay, I collated the erasers when I arrived home. Here are the counts for one Walmart gravity-feed box (24 packs):
#    Title                         Stickers Erasures
-    --------------------   -------- ---------
1.   Boreo                           3       3
2.   Capn Crutch                  1       1
3.   CaveManWich                 5       4
4.   Creeps                          5       5
5.   Dead Bull                       4       4
6.   Demented                      5       5
7.   Ditz                              2       2
8.   Drool Aid                       3       3
9.   Fool                             4       4
10.  Frosted Snakes              2       2
11.  Geek Giant                    5       5
12.  Jelly Bully                      3       3
13.  Lapton                         2       2
14.  Mice Krispies                 3       3
15.  Miniature Maid               3       3
16.  Prickles                        5       5
17.  Slacker Jacks                1       1
18.  Sour Puss                     2       2
19.  Spite                           4       4
20.  Zit Kat                         3       3
21.  Mountain Dude              5       4
22.  Chimps Ahioy                2       2
23.  Sneez It                      1       1
24.  Wolfmen                      0       0

Even though I had 6 wrappers where all 3 stickers did not match all three erasers in that pack, I only ended up with
2 mismatches for the entire box. From My box results, I had Sneez It, and Wolfmen and the scarce of the 6 scarce titles.
In my box, CapnCrunch and Slacker Jacks were also scarce (1 apeice),


I am up for trades... I am looking for stickers and erasers: CapnCrutch (1),  Slacker Jacks (1) , Sneez It (1) , and Wolfmen (2).
I have most other titles of both stickers and erasers to trade.

So it looks like you ended up short by two erasers?  Unless I am missing something here?

Yes, I didn't mention previously but I did have 2 packs with only two erasers but one of these packs had 2 checklists. So I ended up with 25 checklists.

I suppose you can feel the shape of the erasers through the packaging?  I guess it would allow you to "search" the packs?

Not quite. Though you could probably feel the shapes, each title is not unique shape-wise. For example, you could have a Dead Bull or a Prickles, the eraser/rubber itself is identical.

I went to the local Target and they had nothing. They are notoriously slow at stocking the shelves. If I get impatient, I drive to other surrounding cities.

Are these erasers displayed with the collector cards?

I went to the local Target and they had nothing. They are notoriously slow at stocking the shelves. If I get impatient, I drive to other surrounding cities.

Are these erasers displayed with the collector cards?

The display box I bought at Walmart was in the collector card section. I wonder if Toys R Us is carrying these as well.

I suppose you can feel the shape of the erasers through the packaging?  I guess it would allow you to "search" the packs?

Like bigtomi indicated, it would be difficult. there are only 6 different shapes used across the 24 titles so even if you could access the shapes in a pack, it
doesn't guarantee the title you would want.
