If you are a child of the 1970s or 1980s than Topps has
the set for us and the time has arrived with it's release tomorrow. The set, 2014 Star Wars Wacky Packages,
combine two of our favorite childhood things with Star Wars and Wacky Packages.
Boxes should be selling in the $55-60 range and will contain 24 packs.
Along with the funny package stickers like “Use The
Floss” and “Leia’s Sticky Buns” there will be parallels, Reality Television
parody cards, Travel Posters, Coloring Cards and Fold-Out Comic Book Ads.
Like other Star Wars and Wacky Package sets that have been released recently
there will also be sketch cards, printing plates and artist autographs. Sets like this are appealing because of their humor but
with the addition of Star Wars there is a double dose of nostalgia and I plan on opening at least a couple of packs.
I LOVE IT!. I collect Wacky's (all of them) and I have a bunch of the old Star Wars cards too
ReplyDeleteThese are pretty sweet!
ReplyDeleteThese are really cool! I've been half-heartedly collecting Wacky Packages since they started re-releasing them (I'm a little too young for the originals) and I loved Star Wars as a kid. Hopefully I can grab a cheap set off eBay at some point!
ReplyDeleteDid Topps cancel plans to release this over the Summer 2014 months? I know the regular Wacky Packages All New 2014/Series 12 is still slated for a November 2014 release.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like Topps has delayed these, the same thing with Stupid Heroes which was supposed to be released the past Tuesday. I have checked their Facebook and Twitter pages and while there are plenty of sports related posts nothing about these products or a delay.
DeleteApparently the set has been cancelled
DeleteI knew I was right, but it is doubtful some planned Wacky Packages Star Wars entries will end up in the due this month Wacky Packages 2014 Series 1 set as bonus cards.
