Wow, you have some catching up to do!  I enjoy putting my series into my binders and doing an info sheet for each series.  When you want to go back and look it over or show it to someone it makes it much easier and looks better.

That's actually a pretty neat idea.  Are these info sheets that you create or do you just use the Info poster for each series?

I do them myself.  I use a similar format for each series to make it easier.  I also do a cover sheet where I put a scan of the pack on it.  Here is an example of a series.............

Those are great info sheets Rob! If you ever decided to print a set, I would definitely buy 1.

Thanks, the other nice thing is that if I ever wanted to do a website for all of the Post-2004 series I have all of the information already done!

I assume Craven is his alter ego (I call mine Shmoopy)

Both orders should ship as long as they don’t use the same credit card number or address.     :^)

That Information is so cool I would buy a set also if you make a book. (or a PDF) I like how you did that,  Makes me want to make some for my collections.

Bring on more Wackys. As much as Topps can put out. Keep cranking. We'll have plenty of time to sort and admire them when they put the brand back to bed.

I promise the minute we have a firm release date, I'll post it here. I just don't want to post information that will probably change next week. But hang in there, series 7 is in the works as we speak.

No,  I am wise to that one at this point. Two years ago, maybe some tachycardia from that post.  :)

Hang in there. Neil will let us know with ample time (hopefully). I can wait a little longer while OLDS2 is still going strong.

Or we won't get any notice at all to combat the dealers from networking multiple orders!  I wouldn't be shocked.

Nice!  The postcard sets seem to be what I get most excited about in this modern era of Wackys.  I've finally gotten to the point with this hobby where I don't feel the need to collect everything.  But the postcards are still a "must have" item for me.

Can you describe why that is? I'm just curious, because for me it's exactly the opposite, I feel kinda obligated to buy actual card sets, but the postcards seem alien enough that I haven't really become interested, except for the cool ones that looked like wax packs.

Hard to put my finger on it.  I guess mainly I just like the look of them.  And somehow they just seem more manageable than regular Wacky card sets, such as ANS7.  I personally don't like having a million things to chase down with one series (I still haven't collected nearly all the stuff from ANS7).  It also doesn't hurt that the LE postcard sets are generally the cheapest way to get an unopened Wacky sketch card.

For me, I like the format of the larger postcards, if nothing else, just because my 50 year old eyes, don't pick up the details on a regular size card like they used to. I'd love to see the Original Series re-released in postcard format.

That reminds me. Where's the Old School 5x7 33 sticker sets that were supposed to come out? I hope that's still a go.

That would be cool.  I wasn't crazy about the large one in series 2, with the black backgrounds and fluorescent inks.  I thought the series 1 set was better just as a larger version of the base titles, where you can see more detail.  The series 2 ones reminded me of a look that you would see in a Halloween release.
