Trying to fully capture why Wacky's give me the nostalgic, magical, romantic feel is very hard to do. Part of it must be the reminder of many years ago - and visual reminders at that.

I just remember the anticipation of seeing a Wacky for the very first time. I would be almost spellbound.

Of course, there is also an innocence and the artwork is always first-rate and the humor generally so.

It just evokes fairly powerful nostalgic, magical, and romantic feelings.

Kind'a neat to have that happen to you.

Sincerely,

Tony Barbieri

My 22 year old daughter opened a package of garbage pail kids cards, and was puzzled to see a card for COACH HOTEL. Confused as to this unusual event, she showed me the card. I was blown away!!! I discussed the history and romantacism of Wacky Packages with all four of my children, and they now want to be collectors. We have all viewed the website together and spent hours rolling in laughter. I had posted all of my packages when I was young into a photo album my grandparents had given me, and that book is now a long lost treasure.
Let's all do our part and support Topps in this renewed endeavor. Three Cheers!!!

After reading this morning's paper,it's great to see WP's making their comeback. We recently moved and discovered my old plastic card files filled with WP's from long ago. Still in great shape and possible ready to be handed down or sold! Great site work!

This is classic! I also just read today in the newspaper how Wacky Packages were coming back, and (like others) it brought back memories. I think that I never lost the urge to "twist" around product names into funny ones like Wacky's. I think my favorite was "Hurts" tomato sauce (swalling this stuff really "hurts" your stomach...). I still can't look at a Hertz tomato sauce can without laughing! I too have an old collection and will need to take it out and look at it again. Keep up the great work on this website!

Wow I just read in my morning paper about Wacky's coming back. Boy did it bring back the memories. We would go to the store with my mom,and had to "be good" in order to get a pack. Boy those were the days. Can;t wait to relive them with my son. Thanks Topps!
