I sent the email to Leslie with the flyer. I preordered a few cases of these already so if anyone is interested I will have some extra boxes and packs to sell. They come in gravity feed boxes with 24 packs per box.

Release Date: 3-23-11
Retail price: $2.99 per pack

ALL-NEW Celectible Erasers!!! 3 Wacky Packages Erasers Plus 3 Corresponding Stickers In Every Pack

Interesting. I may be tempted to buy a box, because I bet the gravity feed will be colorful with good graphics. The erasers sound like a fun collectible.

How did people get the flyers for this, and where/how can others get one?

No more Jingles in this thread. I moved the jingles to non wacky discussion. Let's keep this on track for erasers.

I've heard that the white Frito-Bandito eraser is very rare.
How rare is it?
As rare as a tan Bandache?

That's cool; thanks for posting it.  I'm a bit surprised it showed up in Previews, but I guess that catalog has everything.  Perhaps I'll have my comic shop order me a box.  I always try to support it and it would guarantee my getting a box.

I did end up ordering a box from my local comic shop this past week.  When I brought it up to the cashier, he said, "Wait a second, let's see if I can still do that".  Had me mildly worried for a minute, but he checked with the boss and it wasn't a problem.  Who knows, perhaps these will be everywhere, but I do think they're kinda cool and didn't want to miss out on getting a box.

So I'm a bit confused here. Do they already exist somewhere to buy? I thought they weren't out yet?

Or is this an "available on the East Coast first" kinda thing?

nothing crazy like that.
Their release date is 3/16, and since they are in the latest Previews magazine, you can order a box through a comic shop.

Ah, ok, so the ordering of a box via the comic shop is a pre-order. Makes sense. Thanks.

It would be hard to top 2010 so even if it came close it would be a big year.  I just hope "big" doesn't equal expensive.

There's no list of what Wacky Packages Erasers will be in the series, but I hope there's a Frosted Snakes (from ANS1) eraser in the set.

Yah, you're probably right.  There could be several new series come out but if it wasn't for the odds of the tough stuff it wouldn't have to cost so much to collect.  Hopefully they steer more towards better odds after ANS7.

I've come a long way from chasing golds. At this point I don't care about anything other than a base set of every gag. Not what Topps calls a base set but a complete set of all the gags that are released in a series whether they be bonus stickers or whatever. I've totally lost interest in novelty chasers.

You were trying to complete a set with obscene odds. You came close. I would be frustrated too. I like to have at least one example of the tough chase cards for my collection. It doesn't bother me not to have the set. I did collect all the silvers from each series

The way I see it now, I'll chase sticker images I don't have. But I won't chase colored borders, glitters, sparklers, reflectors, mirrors, or any other souped up version of a basic Wacky sticker. Except for magnets. I'll chase those.

I guess it's just a different strategy to collecting. No one will ever collect everything I.E. you will never own all of the sketch cards from a series. Collect what you like and leave it at that. I want to collect examples of the tougher inserts but will never get them all such as the golds. To me that is just silly to throw that kind of money out to get a gold border. I would prefer to spend the money on the more unique stuff such as sketches and art.

I bet that does look nice.  I really like that title. The colors used in the artwork go well with the gold flash border.

I'm very glad to hear this.  As much as I enjoy the stickers themselves, I also like all (well, most) of the licensed stuff.  Though I can't say I would ever have thought erasers would be a cool item, I do think they will be a fun thing to have.  Besides, they should be pretty easy to display (at least given their small size) and a managable set to complete.

Oh, and thanks for torturing me/us with your vague allusions!  ;)

The sales ad says that the set has 24 erasers to collect, 3 erasers and 3 stickers per pack but I don't see what a display box consists of.....
