I called Topps last week to verify that they had my April order (turns out that somehow I forgot to login to their site when I ordered).  After being on hold for 45 minutes, I found out they did, but the reason for this post is to pass on that I was also told that they are expected to ship between 4/30 and 5/5.  So, we might start getting notices today.

Neil, here's the Wacky DVDs I've seen so far:

*Dawn of the Dead Head,
*Fiends,
*Furious George,
*Gnome Alone,
*Gross,
*March of the Penguin,
*Paws,
*Plump Fiction,
*Scary Poppins,
*The Simpletons,
*Swinefeld.

Now, since every Wacky Coupon list (except for ANS3) has numbered 20, and there's only 11 here, are you still looking for the rest of them or have you found them all yet?

This could possibly be all of them but there might be a couple of stragglers. If I find any more, I'll certainly post them. By the way, the idea was originally planned as a small subset (about 9 or 10 cards), separate from the coupons. I remember doing a few extras so that we had more choices.

Oh, so it was probably going to be like ANS3 - 10 DVDs and 10 coupons. Maybe this list is all of them.

I wonder which of the 20 coupons we did get would've been the 10 that were selected. Well, I guess we'll never know.

Hello..,,this is Adam Harris-I was the concept writer for Scary Poppins,Gross,Gnome Alone and Furious George (as a DVD)..i collaborated on these with Neil..Furious George started out as a DVD..but good to see it was used in some way..Adam also did the concepts for Snorox,Lifesavings,Watchemacrawlit(ANS3),Closed Up Toothpaste,Sylbrainia(ANS5) and Drac's Coffin Cakes(ANS6) which i also collaborated with Neil on..:)

Hi Adam!, Sorry to snatch Furious George from you. I had no idea it had been done before. With so many artists drawing so many gags over so many years, it becomes impossible not to duplicate concepts. I have definitely seen my share of ideas sent in go to someone else. Welcome to the club! Any relation to Paul Harris? You two would make a dynamic duo!

Hi Adam,  in my previous post i inadvertently credited Paul Harris as the writer for some of the dvd titles.  Sorry for the mixup, but I've corrected my earlier post. Thanks for writing so many great concepts!

Trying to avoid drawing something that Topps has already done is certainly a big enough challenge, but the bigger one is trying not to duplicate the previously drawn (BUT NEVER PUBLISHED) roughs of other artists! If anyone ever wants to tackle THAT Master List, I'd be forever grateful!

   Oh No! You're going to hate me, but Fancy Beast was mine, too! I enjoyed looking at your roughs. They look very similar to the stuff that was being done when Wackys first began. You are right about Topps becoming much more selective. If you ever want me to polish up a rough for you, just let me know! And if you really miss the kiss cuts, check out Jon Gregory's Brand Busters set. He even has some kiss cut plates for sale! Good talking to you!

Very true, and the REST of the cards are stellar, too! For a solid year now, the "usual gang of idiots" has produced the equivalent of an original series set EVERY SINGLE MONTH! And instead of just grinding out filler material, they paint consistently quality images! To paraphrase Winston Churchill, "Never has So Much been painted by So Few, So Rapidly!" We all should thank each artist for their efforts!
