Figured I'd go ahead and get this started. Very simple and it works Love it Great concept,and kid looks good. The background clashes a little though Great concept and kid. The background isn't working for me though, but not enough to ruin it. A day night split down the middle with half sun and half moon would have been cool. I get the gag is half-moon/half wolf, but these simplistic backgrounds can work against a kid sometimes. I like this one. Great looking CPK look. Concept is good for a Hunger Games parody. I could have done without the knot gag, but this one looks great. Simplistic background works. Very simple but I like it. I'd have used a different mouth though. Art is very good. A good Jaws poster parody. Looks good and so does the background.

The art and concept are cool on this one. I'm going to guess that this one is a Simko. The hair on a few of the boys looks off slightly, but doesn't hurt the piece.

I think "Stung Steve" is dope. My fav card so far (seen 10-ish) and I'd even buy the final. Good job somebody!

The Bird house, snake charmer, werewolf, zombie and scorpion are all mine. I painted 20 for the set. I'm not sure I'm ready to part with the scorpion painting just yet.

I think the Joker, Edward Scissorhands, and Band Poster ones are some of my favorites I've seen so far. I know they're bonus cards, but still part of the set.
And the wind chime and mud flap ones in the base set.

The wind sock girl is top notch.Condo Minnie looks great along with walking Ted even though I usually don't care for the pop culture ones.Gotta like the rocker also.Add scorched Scott to the list.

I see plenty of those I would like to add to my collection. SP sketches have definitely been the best of the last two releases, though the lone colored Bunk I have seen is interesting and I'd like to see more.

3 bonus boxes and 2 rack packs in and I do believe I am done with retail and not attacking hobby. Pulled 5 total bonus cards and a few very basic inserts. I just don't want to drop a ton on this release. For better or worse, I will invest in a sketch hot pack for around $50 to $60 and call it good. I have a nice sampling of the art and some of the inserts. Why spend several hundred dollars to pull something, or spend just as much for a set. Not smart for me at all. Good luck all, if you have that much to blow on cards, I am jealous. I think at this point, I have realized less is more. I do enjoy fine artist crafted pipes, nice vintage hats, and spending money on my family. Oh, I'm not quitting, ha ha, I love these cards, but in the end they are stickers!!!!! Stickers!!!! I am also going to dump some money into a vintage 40s Willeys Jeep. I can drive this to car shows and drink lots o cold beer instead of fretting over not completing a set of paper.

Seems like this set has some of the best cards from the last few releases...at least a higher number of them.

At first I didnt think too much of this, then I started looking at it. While not cpk face, it has what the os cards had - based on real life (ie sattelite and astronaut), but kinda gross because of a garbage can - something a first grader would laugh and say ewww to.

This is a good one indeed, I believe it was Steve Potters Concept, however some other artiest did the paint work.

I opened a few jumbo packs Some of my favorites I got so far were "Biath Lon", "Temple Ron", "Walking Ted", "Ringo Pop" "Brock Poster", "Kat Miss", "Da Da Donna" and "Adam Bomb". I will be opening the rest later. So far Im very impressed with both the art and concepts in this series.

I may be crazy, but the more the sets are like OS, the less people like them? Do they really not like OS either? Disclaimer: I have not seen too many of them yet.

The good: Canvas full bleed cards Most bonus cards Artist auto that don't cover artwork Sepia tone cards are better than I would have guessed
I like this set, fun cards.
