The Way Out Wheels set had no stars by the Topps loge, and the Evel stickers had 1 or 2 stars next to the logos. I heard there is 2 variations of #22 in the Way out Wheels set. A tough set, cards and stickers. The Evel cards were considered a Test Set by Topps.

Since the same design was used for the front of both sticker sets, are the backs different colors? <br />Thank you!

I remember sticking the stickers all over my top drawer in the built-in desk in my room. Mom & Dad weren't too pleased.<br /><br />I saw an Evel bendy figure at an antique market a few months ago - though he did not have the helmet or the all important pimp cane.<br /><br />Is there any indication as to what geographic areas Topps would use for test marketing? (This set or any other, I'm curious how that worked - whether it was by state or "East Coast" or whatever.)doublenoughtspyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07737932894456447475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455498748416586967.post-14193409056735534032010-01-20T22:43:51.951-08:002010-01-20T22:43:51.951-08:00Fun fact: It's the only Topps set where the ba...Fun fact: It's the only Topps set where the back of each card says CAUTION: MOTORCYCLE AND BIKE STUNTING CAN BE DANGEROUS.

When I was a kid (as with many other sets) I had a few more of them, but some slipped trough the cracks of time.CaptKirk42https://www.blogger.com/profile/16039278539984069944noreply@blogger.com
