Neil, super fun and very cool. Thanks for the heads up! Also I believe there is a Joe Simko Mars/GPK promo for the GPK fans out there.

That is too cool!! I must have one........

Not sure about the specifics Daryl, but I'm sure they explain it all on the kickstarter website.

From what I understood from checking out the site, the physical items are anything except the $10 "Watching from Mars Digital Rewards." It also sounds like anyone who's contributing gets whatever new stretch bonuses come out, regardless of when they pledged. Hope I've got this right!

as we say around my neck of the woods, "Wicked Awesome!"

I think this promo helped this project out quite a bit today. Almost at $105K. Nice way to boost their sales and awareness of the project.
I was hoping to score a Neil Mashup Sketch ; but knew that was a long shot. Now I have an actual Wacky/ MA card locked down. VERY COOL!

Just bumping the thread, as after re-reading Neil's post, it seems that this particular bonus might only be for pledges made before 5/25.
-
Just got an email from Topps. Today is the last day for pledges to include the Wacky promo. So, if you're on the fence, now is the time to act!
-
They are past $122 K now ; so hopefully the Wacky promo ending helped pull in some more pledges. Very cool to have the wacky card included. Neil's mashup sketches are the best....but pulling one will be a long shot. This makes that situation much better.

378 backers as of this morning, so there should be about that many Wacky promo stickers created. I'd have added more stuff if it would have gotten me extras of that sticker, but it apparently doesn't work that way.

Dang! Missed that promo card!!! Will have to look for it on Ebay I guess...

I would guess that certain OLD's have opened multiple pledge accounts on KS and purchased the minimum physical item pledge in order to score multiples of this and the GPK promo's.

I tried to order extras, but the system wouldn't let me. Maybe it was because I didn't understand Kickstarter "accounts." Bummer.

I would think you would need multiple email addresses to set up multiple accounts. Not sure; but where there is a will.....
I would not be surprised if some of the bigger OLD's ended up with more than one of the promo wackies for re-sale.

So they just added 8 of Wacky and 8 of the GPK Mashup cards to each 8 box case Retailers order for the MA KS. That should be good news for some retailers
and should help drive last minute retailer pledges. I bet this project cracks $150k soon.

Andrew, that's good, hopefully that will make the easier to get on the secondary market!

The promo card is listed a combo... does that mean this is a new (and different) card that has WP promo on one side and the GPK on the other?
Or does the $5 get you a set of both cards?

I'm taking it to mean both cards for the $5. Very glad they did this! With it being Memorial Day, I think a lot of Wacky collectors might have missed out on Attacky Packages for the last weekend deadline.

Guys,
My current hobby budgets (focused on candy, pretty much) don't really allow for me to buy into a Mars Attacks set. However, I'd love to get a set of these promo cards. Anyone willing to proxy purchase a set of the promos for me? Let me know.
Thanks! - Jason

You've got it Jason! I'm ordering some extras for people who missed out last weekend.

okay, so I guess there is not actually a selection to make to add this? you just add money to your pledge amount, then Topps will ask you later what you want?
this seems a bit haphazard.

Yep, confused me too. Thanks again to Monsterettes for setting me straight!
Haphazard it may be, but I like the idea of being able to select what chase levels and extras I want. However, if they ever do this for Wackys, I want the ability to buy extra base sets as an add-on without having to pay $80 for a box.
-
Forgive my confusion, but I'm not understanding all these options. Maybe I just need to read this thread over, but what item(s) exactly can people get and for what amount? I'm not all that interested in Mars Attacks, but I love the various Wacky mashups and wish I could get a set of just those cards, but that doesn't sound like an option. If I could get just one mashup, I would. But is that possible? Can I get one without having to pledge to Mars Attacks? If so, which mashup card could I get?

yeah, it's nice being able to pick and choose some of the stuff.
no extra base sets is odd. I guess you could pledge again under a different address at the $40 level? but that would only get you one extra set at a time.

Neil has been posting many awesome mash-ups in a different thread, but all except the one at the top of this thread are unique sketch cards that will be randomly inserted into Mars Attacks packs. The one at the top of this thread you could "order" today by pledging $25. Or, those who are already pledging are now able to add the one at the top as an extra add-on to pledges. Not sure if it will be a sticker or a card, but it's cool!
I'd love to see a future Wacky release include a subset of all of Neil's Wacky/MA mash-ups, but I'm not holding my breath.

I was thinking the same thing. I was never impressed with what I saw in regard to the aborted Star Wars Wacky Packages mash-up set, but Neil's Wacky/Mars Attacks? That's a set I'd get behind! Great, fun stuff to just seems to blend so together so much more organically.

I *think* you have the option to get the wackys simply by adding to your pledge amount. I'm sure enough to put my money on it anyway.

For those of you who didn't get in before the cutoff to get a free wacky mashup. There is now an add on for 5 dollars that gives you both the wacky and GPK promo card. They are just short of 160k, so there is a lot of add one that are going to be distributed

The $160,000 stretch goal is a big addition - 3 more Dinosaurs Attack Letter-Press cards! Can't see how they won't hit that today, as they're at $159,786 already. That stretch goal may prompt people to go up to the level that includes all letter-press cards.

I agree I did get a level that includes all the letter presses. I am very happy with all the upgrades that are coming. I laugh though, we are so close to using dinosaur fossils in the ink. Is it just me or does that really mean anything to anyone?

I don't care one little bit about that. I DO hope they get to the other two goals so that the "Then and Now" and "Dinosaurs Attacks" chase subsets go up 3 cards each.

I originally was at the pledge level that has a full set with chase cards and a binder. After 30 days I am at the Frost Ray Level that includes all 12 Letterpress "Hit" cards. My feelings about this set changed over time after watching it develop on Kickstarter. It was a fun ride and I look forward to continuing to follow the conversation about it on the KS Page in the comments section. I do think we will reach the $175 Level so all the chase subsets will be 9 card sets. I think that purchases made after the campaign ends via the survey will count towards the stretch goals.
I will be pretty excited if Topps does a Old School 6 release on Kickstarter.
-
Well past the 175,000 :great:
-
At 181K now. Only one stretch goal left with 8 hours to go. At 185K they add Tyranosaurus Rex Fossil dust to the Dino Attacks Letterpress card ink. Nice to see the
campaign succeed. Almost 500 backers. We could probably do as well or better with OS on Kickstarter.
-
Finished at 198K. Not bad at all. Looking forward to this set. The contents of the set changed quite a bit due to stretch goals being met. This was fun to follow. I look forward to OS6 on KS if it happens. One of the Options was to get your face on a a card in the set. It was pricey ($1965) but a cool idea and they sold 3 out of 5 of those spots. It would be pretty cool to have some type of a mention on a Wacky Pack card.
-
($1965)
actually $1962, the year of the original card release.
so your face on a wacky would probably cost a few dollars more, if there's a similar kind of gimmick

you've gotten your wish - they're allowing extra base sets (with display box) for $40 as post closure additional purchases.

Cool! I wanted a base set for a friend.

Lots on controversy surrounding post-campaign moves by Topps on this set. Check the comments on the Kickstarter page to view the proceedings.
I think this one is key to watch as it may provide a template for OS 6 on KS. I will be watching to see if they continue take our feedback to the post-campaign survey plans into account. Currently a few changes need to happen with the survey before they roll it out; in order for me to feel they did right by the backers. They hit four times their funding threshold of 50K by selling about 200K worth of cards. Now they are offering the Exclusive Variant Binder which you had to spend minimum of $700(Which I did) to obtain for $50 separately.They are also not allowing backers to change their pledge levels ; but are allowing backers to purchase additional pledge level bundles after the fact. So if you spent $300 and want to move to $700 level, you can't ; but you can add the $700 level bundle as long as you keep that $300 purchase too. We made our choices on pledge levels during the campaign and that should be that. No changing the levels or buying additional levels should be allowed. That defeats the purpose of the time-bound KS campaign.
So it looks like $200K was not enough pre-sales and now they are taking steps to add another $XXK to the pot before production begins; thus watering down the exclusivity of the items in the set as production increases to meet the after-campaign purchases. Some backers made decisions on what to pledge as the campaign wound down ; taking into account how many of each pledge level had been claimed and how limited the items in the pledges would be. Hopefully some changes to the post-campaign survey will occur before it goes out.

Before the pledge session ended, it looked to me like there would be something like 30-35 variant binders. Now there are an extra 50 available, which greatly diminishes the scarcity and potential future value of that binder. But, as I recall, there were several pledge levels above $700 that did not include the variant binder. It might have been better if they only allowed people who had pledged for one of those levels to add the variant binder.

I wonder how many on here were part of the original campaign - i agree with their move to allow no new pledges and only those who originally pledged get the add-ons. I think it was run very professionally and the communication was outstanding - my firm would need to take notice :)))
-
I think there were enough people here who pledged that there will be several threads, including trading, after the product is delivered and packs are killed. We might actually gain a few members!
Mars Attacks cards may have predated my collecting by several years, but I remember seeing them as a kid from friends' older siblings. I also remember bringing one home from a Wacky trade, and being told I couldn't keep it. That kind of made it more alluring, and I think the same thing may apply to other Wacky collectors.
The kickstarter campaign was run quite well. But, if someone upped their pledge at the end to the $700 level because they thought they'd be able to sell the variant binder for $100 to recover some of their costs, they're probably not very happy right now that people who pledged much lower amounts can now order one for $50.
-
I agree with Dr Deal's quoted paragraph about the variant binder - i agonized for days about going up to the $700 bundle and figured out how to change my pledge amount before I finalized the pledge. Now you can get it for $50 as an add-on??? Perhaps they won't include the exclusive card that goes with it. Was initially really pissed when they announced all the additional items you could purchase after the fact and including new pledgers and am glad they amended that....A
-
Latest word is the Variant Binders will NOT be offered as Add-Ons. Now we are working on them to not allow additional purchases of extra pledge levels as Add-Ons.
Being allowed to Upgrade your pledge level seems reasonable. That is what I proposed; along with others. Time will tell. The post campaign survey comes out in a few days.

Neil,
Those sketch cards are sweet! Will you be doing a green logo Sketch return too? What others will you be doing? Yours Mars Attacks Wackies are cool enough to warrant their own release as a subset. Maybe you could make a set of repro's of all the MA Wackies you do and sell them on this site???
Andrew

Thanks! I haven't really been paying attention to the borders, but I've got a few greenies around here somewhere. I'll post more as soon as I can...

Dude, you really HAVE to make a whole set of these mashups!!

Thanks a bunch! If it were up to me, I'd print a million of 'em ;)

Kickstarter supporters won't get the physical printed Mars Attacks Occupation cards until Feb. 2016 at least.
Heck, I'm still waiting for a Kickstarter campaign towards Wacky Packages Old School 6 sometime in 2016!

UPDATE: The sketch cards are sold - thank you to everyone for your consideration!
Attention Earthlings! I've decided it 'tis the season to give my Mars Attacks sketch cards a good home for the holidays! If you're looking for the perfect stocking stuffer, please consider this original 3 card set of Topps MAO sketch cards, hand painted in gouache and signed on back! Send your jolliest offer to me in a PM and I will touch base on Wednesday evening (12/16) at 6 ET to determine the lucky human!

Whoa!!! Latest Mars Attacks Kickstarter Update has some cool news!
"On sheet one below you'll notice a series of Wacky Packages cards along the right side.
This is a special 9-card set that we'll provide FREE to all backers who purchased a physical product! We were hoping to keep these a surprise, but after the most recent delay we thought we'd announce them to make up for the inconvenience.
These 9 images were sketch cards by Neil Camera that we decided were just too cool to only be sketch cards! Neil graciously cleaned up and spruced up the sketches in Photoshop and we are printing them as special Kickstarter Exclusive Bonus Cards!"

They're baking it into the rewards people already pledged for - for free (as long as they pledged for a physical reward). So if you pledged for a physical reward back in June, you get a set of the cards. And it SOUNDS like it's one set per backer, though that's just how I read it.
-
So there's no chance to get a set now? Grr.

I can see how this is going to be polarizing news for some Wacky collectors.
I myself did end up becoming a backer sort of at the 11th hour and opted in for a hobby box reward. So for me this is "cool news"... but I understand your pain.
I wouldn't be surprised however if these "Kickstarter Exclusive Cards" somehow make it into a future Wacky subset, as non-exclusive stickers.

There are actually 10 Neil Camera pieces of art on the side of the proof sheet - is the bottom one, that has a different colored border, actually part of the main set perhaps? Or the other bonus card that had already been announced? A

that's the first bonus card that was announced months ago.
You can see it in the very first post in this thread

I hope you're right about the last part of your post. I thought those cards were excellent and way too cool to keep out of the hands of true Wacky collectors.

Adam Levine wanted me to pass along that this set happened because of all the Wacky fans here who expressed an interest in the Wacky/MAO sketch cards! Many thanks to all of you for making this a genuine Wacky success story!
-
Neil, so great to see Topps respond so perfectly to a forum request. Also congrats, it looks like an amazing sub-set! It will go nicely with the 'Space Nit' return card I got from you.

This is cool news. Exactly what we asked for! Topps gets extra points on this one!

Now I'm wondering how I can get one of those uncut sheets instead of the one I pledged.

With the lack of Wacky postcards and Old School last year, after seeing the Attacky Packages promo I went to town on this MAO offering, and am eagerly anticipating delivery. I really liked the options to be guaranteed special subsets, and the extra bonuses added after pledges increased was a treat. This wacky subset is awesome icing on the cake! Hopefully there will be a few available on ebay. I pledged for extra Attacky Packages promo cards, and can help forum friends with those.
-

Thanks Joe for the kind words, but really, all of the thanks go to Adam Levine! He was the reason we were able to see these printed.
-
while there is an "ATTACKY PACKAGES" it's not the same one used on the promo, which Neil did at a larger size for the official card.
The above quote is from a update on the MA kickstarter. So it looks like the Attacky Packages card in the Wacky subset will differ from the promo card.
-
while there is an "ATTACKY PACKAGES" it's not the same one used on the promo, which Neil did at a larger size for the official card.
yeah, that's not really making any sense to me. What is that 10th card then, if not the promo?
-

Kudos to you Neil for having your labor of love be included in the Kickstarter! They look fantastic!
Also, kudos to Adam Levine for listening to the Wacky fans. Since he still may be listening, let me make sure to express my interest in seeing these produced in some form to be made available for those of us not participating in the Mars Attacks Kickstarter.
-
Lastly, when all the sketch cards were delivered, we found Neil had done 8-10 different Wacky Packages themed sketches. After he shared them with WP fans online, it was suggested that Topps produced a printed set of them.
Once we realized we had about 9-10 open slots on our main printing plate, Neil offered to scan and clean up the sketch cards he drew (removing the corner logo, for instance) and we slapped them in at the last minute-- complete with a 9-piece puzzle of the "Attacky Packages" promo across the backs.
We were hoping to keep them a surprise, but after our latest delay we wanted to show them off so fans could understand how hard we're working to make their rewards extra special, and to make sure they knew the extra wait would be worth it!
-Topps
There are 9 cards in the set. The tenth, at the bottom, is the original "Wacky Packages" Promo card included in the campaign. The original art for that one was drawn at a larger size, which is why it does not appear as a sketch card that can be found in packs. However, Neil did draw an "Attacky Packages" sketch card which will be randomly distributed, it's just not the one used to create the promo.
The above is taken from the kickstarter site. So Neil did an Attacky Packages Sketch that we can pull out of a pack which differs from the promo card. Cool!
The 9 card set having the puzzle on the back is sooooo cool. This set will be a keeper.
-
Wow, a puzzle back too!!! This release just keeps getting better and better!

I wonder if down the road this subset will be referred to as "Attacky Packages"? You just used that name ; even though that is only the name of one card in the set.
Pretty good idea if you ask me. I can't recall a better cross promotion for Wackies ever! So cool to see Topps act on the suggestion to make Neil's sketches into cards. With all the misses from Topps in the last year or so...This Kickstarter has made it all OK IMO.

"Attacky Packages" Bonus Set Update
Posted by The Topps Company
Quick update with some good news.
We've done the homework and realized that for collation and packing it's just simpler and easier to treat all 10 of the "Attacky Packages" cards as one item, rather than two: as the initial mashup and the 9-card bonus set.
What this means is that EVERY physical order has been automatically upgraded to receive all 10 of these cards.
It ALSO means that if you paid to receive any ADDITIONAL copies of the mashup card (as per the $5 add-on) we'll be giving you the full set of 10 for each copy you ordered.
So if you paid for 5 Wacky Promos, for example, you'll also get 5 sets of the 9-card bonus set!
-Topps
-
That is great news for Wacky Package collectors, and it means there should be plenty available for anyone who missed them.
-
I was waiting for news like this. With the 9 cards and the promo card on the same printing sheet, they'd be throwing away a lot of 9 card sets otherwise.
-

That was exactly what I had been thinking. I ordered extras to help people out here, and anyone who asked me for the original promo will now get all 10. Anyone still not covered, shoot me a PM and I'll add you to my list, first come first served until I run out.
I haven't been this happy with Topps in a LONG time! :great: :great:

Another piece of information concerning the "Wacky Attack" cards...
From Kickstarter Project Update #123...
"For now, here is a look at the foil sheet, and as you can see there will be foil versions of the Dinosaurs Attack and Wacky Packages cards, something we hadn't originally planned for. Complete sets of the DA and WP foils will automatically be added to anyone at the $700 and $1350 reward levels. Once we determine how many remain after that we will begin considering options for how to distribute the remainder. They will either be added to the pool of foil cards in packs, or given in sets at specific levels. "

Do you all think that the sheet contains a complete set of DA foils and MA foils? Or is there more, considering how large the set of MA will be?
Good to know that some of us will be getting the Wacky set in foils and am wondering how many sets in total will be printed. Trying to figure
that out, but that will depend on the MA sets....

You can tell from the picture that, at least, all 10 of the Wacky titles are on the foil sheet. I can't make out enough detail here at work to see whether there is a full DA foil set, but I would suspect so. As you indicated, there should be a foil DA and foil WA set for each foil MA base set printed. It sounds like the extras will most likely be placed into packs.
-
Yes. 10 X 10 sheet, so 100 cards.
81 base cards and 6 DA + 10 wackys fills it up w/ 3 left over.
But it does look like there are 3 cards in the old format filling those spots

Good assessment! I was thinking 9x10 = 90 cards, didn't see the 10th column/row....

Learning that there will be foil Wackys is great news. Makes me even happier I sprung for a high end bundle. Now I can tell my wife our funds were well spent. ;)

-
I would agree. It's pretty cool that if you went heavy into this set that you get some extra-special bonuses. They're definitely delivering the goods on this one.
-
Hopefully when the Attacky Packages sets start to sell for good money on the aftermarket; Topps will start to feel that Old School on Kickstarter makes sense.
-
I have been thinking about the Foil Attacky Packages sets. They will ship about forty of these sets to those who purchased the $700 and $1350 bundles. They are not sure how the rest of the printed foil Attacky Packages will be distributed. That will make these sets pretty rare. Not sure how many will be resold as most high end buyers will only receive one set. I know I will be keeping mine. Maybe some MA Fans that don't care about WP will sell their sets; but won't they keep them because they are part of the MA set? Will the fact that the basic Attacky Packages set will be available at decent prices due to it being included with the promo card make the foil sets less sought after since they are only a variant set and not a unique image set? I guess the foil set really mostly appeal to MA and WP collectors who want everything released.

I'll certainly be keeping my foil set, and I figure anyone else who ponied up for the high level pledges will want to keep whatever is included as a part of the overall release, whether or not they are Wacky collectors. If Topps ends up distributing the extras as inserts in packs, we'll probably see singles for sale, and dealers who bought mass quantities to break cases could possibly build extra sets.

Hmmm, I would expect the pile for each of the "Wacky Attack" cards to be the same size.

Scot,
Can you say SHORT PRINT?
-
Hmmm, I would expect the pile for each of the "Wacky Attack" cards to be the same size.
Pretty sure that's an "in-progress" shot. I suspect that the cutting happens and somehow the cards get mixed up after that, leading to the need for this hand-collation to occur.

Just figured that since all the Wackys were on one sheet, they would be cutting about the same number of each. But I certainly don't know the process they are using.

They are cutting the same number of each. But when that sheet is cut, it is likely part of a stack, and then whatever process takes those hundreds and hundreds of cards and delivers them to someone for collation. They then have to sort out the Attacky Pack ones from the others, and then collate out each into the system shown.
I'm just assuming there are steps we are not considering that lead to this shot, other than there being "short prints". It's been made pretty clear that there are not, and that these are coming out in complete sets. They just aren't coming directly out of the printer/cutter in complete set form and need to be brought together by a process and by hand.

Here was an interesting blurb on Kickstarter for MA Occupation -
Hobby boxes: in process of die cutting and hot foil stamping. So far, about 400 silver foil boxes folded and glued. will need 850 silver, 160 green foil, 75 red foil, 50 gold foil.
Did Topps mention about the differently stamped hobby boxes previously? And are these the general boxes that contain the packs, or the boxes that contain the complete sets? I don't recall any level or price differential on either of those items, so the different colored foils are a surprise. I do recall different levels/colors of sketches.
If these are the boxes containing the packs, it looks like 1,135 total boxes are to be produced - not a lot of product.

I am getting the Supreme Bundle with a Red Foil Stamp. So I get a super rare box. That's an interesting point. I knew my bundle comes with one hobby box of cards in addition to the complete sets of cards. I plan on opening the packs in the box to try to score an auto or a metal card. Each box has two "hits" One will be a sketch and the other will be an Auto, a metal, or a lumber card. I did not spring for the pack filled with all the artist auto's ; but I would like to get one of them. Maybe I will be able to trade for one.

I'm still wondering why they are putting different color foil stamps on boxes - aren't the contents the same? Apparently I missed something.
Lumber cards I thought were MLB Wackys. Did you mean letterpress?

It's an awesome little miracle that we're actually getting an Attacky Packages bonus set out of the Mars Attacks Kickstarter, but the more I see Neil's other sketches - I'm convinced there could be a much larger dedicated Wacky/Attack crossover set.

Hot Wheels and Wackies are my thing and MA is a recent fascination for me as it originally came out before I collected cards. That sketch is the BEST. Thanks so much for posting the pic.
Very exciting time in the MA camp as the impending arrival of the Kickstarter bundles looms. They are set to announce another surprise for campaign supporters any day. The KS campaign has been like a trip inside the chocolate factory. We have watched the set go from idea to reality and have been asked for input and ideas along the way. Hopefully the multiple requests for WP OS6 on KS were heard. You can't say we didn't try on that front.

Well, the newest update came out and there's a delay that's going to push back shipping a couple of weeks; due to a last-minute art change on the wrappers and the company printing them not printing enough, along with some signed cards not coming in.
The amazing news is that they've created more Attacky Packages cards!

Also, it sounds like these are truly just a bonus and not an addition to the existing Attacky Packages set. Based on the wording in the update, a single set of these will be included to each backer who had a physical reward. "Now the good news: We have added 3 new bonus cards which will be sent out to all backers with physical rewards!"

Yeah, what are we getting now? A dozen new "Wacky" cards? That's one third of a 70's-style series!
It's a serious bonus they're delivering on this.

Hey, that's my Ran-A-Way sketch card!!! Cool!
It sounds like one bonus set of these three cards will be sent to each backer receiving a physical reward. If that is in fact the case, I won't be able to include them for the people here I'm helping.
With 525 backers, 18 of which are digital only, that leaves 507 bonus "Attacky Packages Old School" sets of three cards.

You're right, the MAO is a pretty elaborate set. In a nutshell, most of it is straight up martians: the base set, a variety of subsets, as well as bonus cards/kickstarter extras. There's also a Dinosaur Attacks subset and the "Attacky Packages" subset, which is a bit of an anomoly since it combines Wackys and martians! I tried to tie the two together as much as possible, but I'll leave it to collectors to decide if it's more on the Wacky side or more on the martian side! In any event, I hope you enjoy it! It certainly was fun!

So, did anyone here win the three mashups Neil had on ebay? I hoped to have a shot at the Gadzilla, but it went too high for me. 12 bidders! I guess that one appealed to Wacky, Mars Attacks, and Dinosaurs Attacks fans.

Well, about that... here is an excerpt from today's Kickstarter update and note the part in red:
After reviewing the 134 updates, and almost 1400 comments, we have come up with a list of the various items that will be included in each package sent to backers who selected a physical reward.
cards for all physical backers cards for all physical backers
3 Variants of the P1 Philly Non Sports Card Show promo
1 Promo card distributed in the Non-Sport Update Magazine
1 "The Armageddon Directive" card
2 IDW promo cards
1 P3 Promo
1 GPK crossover card
1 Attacky Packages card
1 printing plate
9 Attacky Packages subset
3 Attacky Packages "old school" subset cards
A total of 23 items!
Every printing plate will be unique, the one shown in the photograph is an example.
The first 76 shipments to backers were sent out lacking the 12 Attacky Packages subset cards. A second shipment of the cards that were omitted will be sent to those backers.
Note: only the first 250 backers (chronological) will receive a game card from Steve Jackson Games.

if you go to Kickstarter, sign in and then go to the ME drop down in the top right. Look at the 'Backed Projects' and click the one you're interested in. Click the Blue button that says View Pledge.
Or click 'Backed Projects' under My Stuff and then the Blue plus sign off to the right.
Your number is listed in that info.

People are complaining on the KS site about receiving incomplete orders. I think everyone needs to consider the magnitude of their task over there with a very small staff. They have stated orders missing cards will be made whole. The team needs to be given credit for trying very hard to make everyone happy and deliver on their commitments.

I would have loved to donate my time and help these guys put sets together! It would have been fun!

Thanks, I'll do that! I think however, that my number is nearer to 350 - I looked at a sheet I printed out during the campaign and it noted that there were over 300 people who supported the project and I may have joined after that - A

Thank Adam Levine. He's overseeing the MAO release and was instrumental in moving this set forward.
Neil,
Considering how much of a key player Adam Levine has been in the MAO Kickstarter, and the Attacky Packages set, what's the deal with him apparently "no longer being employed by Topps"?
Just saw this on the comments thread of the Kickstarter campaign.... from yesterday, at the end of a response by Topps:
"Please note Adam Levine is no longer with Topps."

I'd be curious to know how many of you backed Mars Attacks simply because of the Wacky Packages promo. I know that I did. I have no real interest in Mars Attacks.

I am a Mars Attacks Fan, however it was nice to get some Wacky and GPK mash ups. Also the Judge Dredd Cards will be cool. Not sure on the Dinosaur Attacks cards, however I am willing to look them over.

I would have backed it anyway. But the promo and the possibility of pulling one of Neil's sketches got me so very enthusiastic that I spent more than I might have.
-
I got into the MA cards because of the Saunders link. I backed the project because I like MA. I went for a higher end bundle mainly due to the alternate binder. Getting all the Wacky Cards including a foil set of them was like a dream come true. Topps really delivered much more than they promised on this project! I hope it will lead to Old School on Kickstarter. I certainly know I voiced many requests during the MA campaign for Old School to be next.

I got in early because I'm a fan of Mars Attacks. Attacky Packages is awesome but it didn't affect how I pledged.

At first I thought they got my order wrong, but the box I bought was tucked inside. Great way to pack it.
no, I don't believe the standard binder has an exclusive.

I am wondering what the demand for the foil variant MA/WP Mashups will be? With about 40 people receiving full sets of these I doubt too many full sets will be resold as they will be kept by hardcore MA collectors since they are a real part of the set. That will translate into most people having to assemble a set piecemeal. Am I correct to say the set will be 12 cards (9 cards with puzzle backs and 3 old school cards) Is the Attacky Packages card going to come in a foil variant too?
I will be keeping my set; but wonder if many WP collectors will care too much about these variants since they can pick up the regular versions of these cards and have the images.
Andrew
-
Can anyone estimate the number of complete metal base sets of MAO? I didn't go the distance to order the deluxe package that includes a set because the extra $600 or so seemed so steep. I know the most expensive package contained a full set, but you could also conceivably pull a full set from packs and boxes too.

My understanding from the updates is that the regular Attacky Packages promo card, plus the 9 with the puzzle backs, will be produced as foils because they were placed for printing on the main sheet that was also used for foils. The last three "Old School" cards seem to have been produced separately, and I will be (pleasantly) surprised if they are also included as foils.

Back in August, Topps estimated that 35 metal sets of 55 cards would be produced. It looks like about 24 people pledged for levels that would include complete metal sets. So, maybe there will be 11 or so sets, equivalent to 605 metal cards, inserted as hits in packs? A daunting task indeed.

I ordered a few extra of the Mars Attacks Occupation Wacky Promos for people on the forum who missed them. I know Pat / Raw Goo has done a tremendous job on helping out forum folk -- three cheers for Pat :13: I'm hoping to share the promos with those who want to keep them, rather than flip on ebay. If you don't already have a set let me know. I was going to post images of the sketches I pulled (I was very excited to get one of Neil's Dinosaurs Attacks sketches!), and a scan of a Mars Attacks sketch from a previous series that was a another wacky mash up by Neil, but I can't get the scan to be small enough for postimage to accept...

The bottom most three cards on the right side (SPACE NIT, RAN A WAY, and OCCUPATION" have "Attacky Packages Old School" printed on the back are were not part of the 10 WP plus one GPK add on. They were included in the full set plus chase options.

Nothin' magical. Assuming you use Windows, open the image in Paint and on the Home tab in the Image section is a drop down labeled "Rotate". Select whichever option makes sense for your image (in this case, it was Rotate right 90o) and resave the image. Voila!

Rotating is also an option within postimage, if the image is saved there.

Wow, that Gato-rage is another beauty! Fantastic stuff!

Elizabeth, that's too wonderful. Is anyone keeping count? How many Attacky Packages has Neil done so far?
I don't know how many Neil has done, but definitely worth keeping track of those we know. They are all quite simply eye-popping work!
-
Why doesn't someone just ask Neil how many he's done? Now, who's going to do it?

Two more Dinosaurs Attacks mashup sketches - never previously published I think...

In another example of how much Pat (Raw Goo) contributes to the wacky community, she deserves a huge shout out for getting DYI cards in her Mars Occupation order, giving Neil more scope for his wild and wonderful Wacky/Mars mash ups! Three cheers for Pat's foresight and generosity -- and of course Neil's artistry.

Update: I don't typically do this, but I revised the original concept on this one. I originally planned to use the "beastyboy" name, but decided to change it and then regretted changing it, so now it's back to "beastyboy"!

Here are some ideas for more titles. Duzn't Do Destruction (Duzn't Do Nuthin'), Chock Full Of Nuts & Bolts and Saucers (Chock Full Of Nuts & Bolts), Martina (Fatina), Oscar The Martian (Oscar The Mayor), Marman (Barman), Oh Scary (Oh Hairy) Scare (Bear Aspirin), Saucereater (Valveater), Snatch-An-Earth with Frosty Space Flakes, Coo-Coo Martians and Martian Jerks (Snatch-A-Pak), Super Saucer Crisp (Super Cigar Crisp) Mr. Green (Mr. Mean) Land O Martians (Land O Quakes) Mars Pax (Mex Pax) Chaffed & Marsburn (Chaffed & Sunburn) and Space Mess (Swiss Mess).

Some of these are great, but they don't have to be parodies of parodies. They can still spoof the original products used in vintage Wacky Packages.
For instance...Oscar The Martian can be simplified to Oscar Martian based on Oscar Mayer.

This mashup set is screaming to be made. Topps would be insane not to make this happen based on what has been posted. Clearly, the art and the demand are there.
They should do a Kickstarter for it if they are afraid to pull the trigger. That way the risk is reduced and we can show our support.

Topps is not some Mom & Pop shop needing capital to run their operations. I think that Wacky Packages line probably sells pretty consistent, if not just because of us kids of the 70's. Now the marketing feedback might help gauge support but I am sure they know about this site among many others that talk about trading cards.
I think Topps blundered with trying to mix-up the non-sports cards with sports cards with the Wacky Packages MLB set. I for one, while collecting sports cards when young, have since strayed away from most sports cards. I have specifically made it a hobby to collect non-sports cards. Perhaps I have gone a little overboard with my collection but I truly like the all non-sports stuff. I have no interest in the WP MLB set, Hello Topps...
Mixing up other non-sports titles, like Mars Attacks, with Wacky Packages probably will sell better than the WP MLB. I think a lot of people do not relate with sports and having trading cards that specifically are not sports related draw a good crowd. A lot of creative "artsy" folks are not driven by sports. Currently a huge crowd is the Cosplay crowd, if they could only figure out a way to merge non-sports cards with the Cosplay crowd they might pull off the the Wacky Packages line of the 21st century...
-
It took me awhile to get into MLB Wacky Packages but in the end, I really enjoyed collecting the set. It had some some fun, off beat gags and a nice but modest range of chase items. I loved the fact that the promos cards were released with this years MLB set and the sketch cards were top notch. We've had Wackys for near 50 years (on and off) and I can't fault Topps too much for trying to mix it up.
-
I agree...... they tried to create crossover for future WP sets with baseball fans...... just not great response from WP fans....

Well someone must have liked MLB as the sketch cards sold like hotcakes on eBay. I had wanted to get a version of White Sox Relish from each artist and only ended up with three and had to fight to get them! Luckily I was able to get a few returns from artists to help round out my collection.
-
Yes, I'd like a set too! Contact your favorite Topps rep and tell them Neil's ready to make a Wacky Mars set! In fact, I think I have enough now for an entire base set ;)
Neil, do you have a specific email or phone number (and name) of whom to contact? I'd be happy to do that, even if it was a longshot.
I've really enjoyed your wacky-Mars mashups. I'd certainly love to see a set! Also, is there one place (on this forum or elsewhere) where you have all the various titles you've created? I'd enjoy seeing them all in one spot and knowing I didn't miss out on any.
Thanks, as always, for keeping wackys fresh and fun!
-
Glad you like my mars wacky mashups! Most of the titles I've posted can be seen in this thread, although there's still a few that haven't been posted yet. I like to space them out (no pun intended).
By the way, I was trying to be tongue in cheek when I said to contact a rep. They're already well aware of the set and if they want to do a 2nd series, they know where to contact me.

OMG. another winner. Melts my mind for sure.

love how the Angry on the box side is only 4 letters, as an homage to the shortened Hungry on the original Wacky
Hmmmm...I see all 5 letters there. Is it an optical illusion?

well, I guess I wanted to only see 4, so that's all I saw. But looking again at a super-enlarged image, you spoiled my dream. :'(

I use the 'add image to post' function and I think all of the pictures end up to be the same size as there is max size limit.
I don't link from photobucket or another photo sharing site.
Does anyone out there know how to increase the size of an image using this forum's feature? A

Your Dratz image above is 452 x 640 (nice and large) but this one is 126 X 180 and small.
I've been stumped by this inconsistency in the size of posted images.
(If you want to send it to me in a PM, it should come thru large, as I've never had an issue like this on PM, and I can post it via Photobucket)
It would be nice to know what the deal is...

Maybe Neil could redo all the sketches he has done for this release with small changes and Topps can sell a set of those? Then was everyone who purchased one of the first sketches still has something unique...and we get our set.

No changes - they are great the way they are! I own the "Ran-A-Way" sketch, and don't mind that cards were made from it.
-
Thanks Pat! Just one note, most of the art was drawn on standard size sketch cards and if these were ever to became a set, I'd probably want to paint them at least 5x7 so that details (like the text) were crisper. Otherwise, those little net weight gags look kind of sloppy in print ;)

I would absolutely buy this set.

I would absolutely buy this set.
Me too! And the set wouldn't even need to have a "superfractor" chase card! ;)
-
I would definitely buy a set! I've really enjoyed these, being a fan of Wacky Packs and sci-fi.
-
The set would be a no-brainer! But we already know Topps has no brains.

I would be a whole set as well - ALL HAIL NEIL!!!!

You definitely went above and beyond with the cards you were able to get! Many thanks for those!

The more of these I see, the more I like them. Here's hoping for a set... ;)
Brian Mc
-
Neil,
Is there any possibility of you making a small number of sets of cards made from your scans of these sketches for forum members? Since we are talking about sketches and not actual cards; I thought maybe the rules might be a tad more lax. I bet alot of us would be up for acquiring a set of these sketches as cards.
You could sell a set of the cards along with one original sketch. You could limit it to forum members and have us pre-pay to fund the endeavor. Thanks for all you do!
Andrew
-
Wish I could but unfortunately, without explicit permission from Topps, printing them is out of the question. To make a set, each one would need to be an original piece of painted art and I'd probably need years to pull that off!
However, if enough people were to let Topps know, maybe they'd consider letting me print a set. Dunno.
-
Neil,
What about posting a digital library of the Sketches you have done for this set so we could print out our own copies.
I would do that.
Andrew

Our wishes have come true! A set of ten Attacky Packages has been available for a while! May there be more to come!

My pleasure. (It's gonna take a while, though! 12 more pages to go!) These images are definitely worth resurrecting and saving.
I only wish that they could be saved in their original place in this thread, rather than all lumped together at the end. Each quote, however, does have reference information pertaining to names and dates, so at least that's something.

Thanks for getting the pictures back!
Well, I believe that's about all the images pertaining to mash-ups on this thread. (I was unable to get 2 images by Jason Liebig and 1 from Jean Nutty. He did convert his image, however, and it can be seen a few pages back.) If, by chance, someone stumbles upon an image I missed, please convert it so it can be seen again. Thanks!

I tried to restore this thread before, but unlike the others I could alter, this one had no visible links to post image at all, so I couldn't make the fixes.

Great job Rob! Excellent. So much good artwork in this thread. (I was considering doing this one day at work when I didn't have much to do)
I think these are the 3 other images you mentioned

Looking at these is what made fall in love with Wackys all over again. Really been bummed at the last two official series. This gives me a glimmer of hope with the new Attacky set that I just received from Topps Online- Neil's style is Saunderesque. Im sure he and Jay are smiling down
-
Thanks, Rob, and no problem, Pat.
It was interesting going through the history of the thread and an enjoyable way to spend part of a Sunday morning. I not only learned a few things, but also came across a few images of which I had been previously unaware.

I think I've got the original posts fixed now. What else is a person going to do when their Topps order of the new Mashup set was returned to Topps by the PO 8 days ago, and still hasn't arrived there.........
-
Thanks, Pat.
Any word from Topps as to whether they are going to reship your order?

They haven't deigned to answer my emails. Hopefully they will contact me when the package gets back to Fort Lauderdale - it is in Jacksonville as of 1:27 pm Friday.
