For today’s edition of Wacky Wednesdays, we’re going to once again pull an entry from Topps’ recent Wacky Packages Halloween postcard releases:\u00a0 From the 2010 edition is Stake 5, the parody of Hershey’s Take 5.<\/p>\n

The parody is a fun one and sports a nice vampire illustration on the package art.\u00a0 Monster-based Wacky Packages always end up being some of the better ones, and this is no exception.\u00a0\u00a0 Here’s a close-up look at Stake 5:<\/p>\n

Wacky Packages Halloween Postcards 2010 – Stake 5<\/p><\/div>\n

Stake 5 is based on Hershey’s Take 5 bar, which recently underwent a package refresh and redesign.<\/a>\u00a0 The parody is based on the original look for the bar and here’s an example of just such a wrapper:<\/p>\n

As you can see the Wacky matches up nicely with the original wrapper and the original design elements were put to good use for the parody.\u00a0 Another fun entry.<\/p>\n

That’s everything for today’s edition of Wacky Wednesdays.\u00a0 We’ll be back next week with another Halloween-themed entry, and back tomorrow with more Countdown To Halloween fun.\u00a0 See you next time!<\/p>\n
