Seems like cheap toys selling/trading is either hot or cold, and right now they are frozen in solid ice. Where did everyone go? Are there still a few of us lurking in the shadows?

I’m currently searching for a Novo wrapper and checklist if anyone has an extra.
Also, is it fruitless at this point to keep searching for a Garbage Gang CT empty box? 📦

I've only been in this corner of gpk for a couple years. I know the cheap toy game takes a long time and patience. I've been very fortunate to get in when I did cause things were movin and skakin at that time. I never thought I'd be where I am with my collection in this short amount of time. Guess I got a bit spoiled and now it's time to wait til it picks up again. I have had so much help from a lot of you guys and I do appreciate it.

How many unopened 2nd series packs are out there? I don't remember ever seeing even a pic of one.

I bet it's worth a lot of money, especially if there's only one!

Depends who wants it. I'd only ever consider it worth the price of the loose mint toy + the price of the wrapper/checklist.... But that's just me

Thanks for the heads up about the other Novo wrapper/CL. I snagged it after seeing your post. I had one tobacco sleeve/toploader left and low and behold it fits that Novo checklist like a 🧤

Good I'm glad it went to somebody here. I think the price was fair also as over time(30years) there are still less than a handful of these floating around.

Yeah the price seemed very fair based on ended auctions years ago. Being a Canadian listing helped out big time too.
So now I have USA GPK, UK GPK, UK GG, and Canada S2 wrapper/checklists. Are there any other wrapper/CL’s out there for CTs?

There is a CA series one...that's where you Canadian Aquas etc. come from.
If you haven't already take some time to read the treads Russ put together on the various cheap Toy releases. They are a great place to learn just about everything a CT collector might want to know.

I picked up a Canadian red Chris off of ebay and the color is most definitely different from US reds. I'm not sure on wrapper differences though.

I found this pic from Rusvan’s Canada S1 thread. Sucks all the pics are “gone” but they can still be accessed thankfully.  So the box has French-Canadian writing on it but what about the wrappers? Says they are more transparent than US bags. Anyone got a better pic of just the wrapper? Maybe a comparison to US? Thanks!

Good I'm glad it went to somebody here. I think the price was fair also as over time(30years) there are still less than a handful of these floating around. I think I might have a S2 wrapper and checklist. I'll have to check my giant GPK box one of these days. I honestly can't remember anymore. I definitely have a checklist though.
