Short printing a couple titles would be kind of fun.

Maybe they're bringing back the price of 5¢ a pack.

At 20 for $1 I could probably collect as many as Brad!  ;D

I know this would probably be total speculation on your part, but if you had to take a guess, how long would you say Topps will continue to come out with new series?  We're 7 years and counting and there doesn't seem to be any end in sight.

Are you asking about all Wacky series or just OLDS or ANS? Still plenty of new material for ANS I think plus with kid turnover you can always flip back to the popular products every few years. With OLDS I think I have around 7-8 series worth of stuff. Jason gets me great images and ideas all the time. We can also do a round of 60s products as a die-cut series and also 80s products so plenty left in the tank if people are still digging it.

will there be a free stuff with orders over certain amount?? that was a nice added extra...esp. the binder..maybe a free poster or REAL wax wrapper

Excellent work on all the OLDS series...will you be sparring with Greg @ the October Show?? Will you be at the show?? met Jay last time it was cool!!

I was referring to any series like Old School, ANS, Postcards, Flashbacks, etc.  Even if ANS dropped out and the Postcard series and Old School continued it would be plenty to keep us busy.  I guess the easy answer is when they stop making a good profit!

This post is for Dave. I just want to say that personally I have enjoyed Olds 1 and 2 far more than the ANS 7 or 8 Series. If I had to choose. I am definately looking forward to the Olds 3 and hope that the ANS Series steps up its game to the same level. I guess I am biased because I do look forward to new parodies. It's funny how to find new stuff, you dug into the past and have come up with a Mold Rush of Wormy Packages !  :great:

It's going to be funny when one of these series really does cancel and no one believes it because everyone jokes about it all the time!

Nothing against the Philly show (it's fine for what it is), but I think if I came all the way from the UK...and saw what I'm sure I'd see...I'd be a little irked. I'm really not "dissing" it, it's a good show to travel a couple of hours to, but across the entire Atlantic? Think that's debatable, lol.

Hey Fred, Do you mean Paul Hart, If so, Me and a lot of the Wacky guys have met him before. He is a very cool guy and has brought some of the UK Wacky items in the past.

Thank you for the pic of the OS 3 promo card, If everyone on here has liked OS 1 & 2 so far, Then I think 3 will be just as good.

I thought the same thing when I read that.  I can picture him coming in and seeing a bunch of tables and us geeks walking around and wonder where the real show is.  haha.  They do have a nice little snack bar though!

Paul Hart is one of the UK's great collector/dealers - I've had many great deals with him on candy stuff.   I agree that he's a very cool guy.
