Awesome!
Reminds me of when I was a kid in the 70s and took my brother's collection and stuck them to the backboard of my bed. Boy, was my mom pissed! (My brother was, too.)

I too stuck all my late 70's Wacky Pack stickers to things they should not have been stuck to... A couple of years ago, I picked up an uncut sheet of stickers from the same period.
It's great to see that the Wacky tradition continues!

Thanks for the old Wacky Package stories, Lukeulele and BeezleBug! I had a ton of them, but I don't remember sticking them on anything. I just remember my brothers and I fighting over them! Great memories! I'm glad that Topps still makes them, because I have my kids collecting them now too.

How cool would it be to have a Dad who designed some Wacky Packages??

Ha, ha! They come up to me sometimes with new Wacky Package ideas...  For these two though, I was provided with the text and the gag.

Hi,
Here are the pics of the skate case. It's still in great condition and so are most of the stickers. I took pics of the individual stickers too so if anyone wants me to download the rest I will. You can actually read the close up shots.
