    Screenshot_2019-05-27-18-56-25.png

    any clue what's in the bubbles, and which sets I still need?

    Big Cantuna only comes in a pack you can already see it, right?

    Unless you had your own reasons, you shouldn't need the second Swag Stylers pack. You got the correct Swag Stylers pack above it.

    Tfwiki will tell you the bubbled ones. It's the last character of each pack labeled "(Lost Bot)".

    Correct on Big Cantuna.

    The top one comes with Lost Bot Abominable Soundman and the middle one comes with Sprinkleberry Duh’ball. Big Cantuna comes in a Spoiled Rottens 8-pack and yes you can see it in the package. And lastly, that’s an awesome deal on the Piranacon reissue!

    I purchased the 1st one because a seller was still haggling on the main one I was after... hours later, they accepted, so I have both coming.

    2 Ollie bytes are better than one, :lol 

    My daughter wants a red book anyway. :rolleyes: 

    Thanks! Couldn't pass up the reissue. :thumb 

    So I still need an 8 pack, and a 5 pack, right?

    Depending on what you’re looking for, including the Big Cantuna 8-pack, if you want all the Swag Stylers then yeah you’d need one of the 8-packs that has Chic Cheeks in it. As for 5-packs, the best one to get IMO is the Music Mob 5-pack with Grampiano and Pink Key Pop. But that’s just my personal recommendation as the Music Mob is my favorite of the new tribes introduced in Series 2.

    So what exactly is the blue backpack like thing that others are sating is Rinkstink? What group might he belong to? I was thinking the Blue stinkasaurus Rex was Rinkstink? And belonged to the ToiletTroops? And from package art we can clearly see that the orange is a Spoiled Rotten lostbot by his oder fumes.. Lol.. I am starting to think that the Grey Nobeeoh is either a Toilet troop, toilet troop lostbot, or a Swag Stylers lostbot? And I'm in the camp that doesn't think the bag of pretzels is a SUGER SHOCKS member, but I am strongly leaning on the basket of berries to be one, we know because of it not being in ad pics for the fresh squeezes that there not one of them, I would say they might be a lostbot for that group but they are not hidden, but instead on proud display in a five pack, if not a Sugar shock then maybe a ShedHead some how? The bottle of chocolate sauce and the Cupcake are definitely Sugar shocks..

    So one can of fish pack to track, thanks a bunch! :D 

    Edit: just bought the lot of 8 off ebay that had rock swagger included... only need cantuna and Mocklate now.

    Anybody on the selling end of those? I'll still hunt locally and might get lucky, but maybe someone wants to trade if not sell? :oops:

    Distribution of series 2 has been really weird around here. I’ve ONLY seen them at my local Meijer, and at first they only had the 8-packs. Last week they finally put out the 5-packs, but still no sign of the singles anywhere in my area. I’m afraid series 3 will start showing up before I ever see series 2 singles.

    Anyway, got the 5-pack with Grampiano yesterday as a little holiday gift to myself. I really just wanted Grampiano, who is as awesome as advertised, but it also came with Overpack, which my wife wanted to add to her collection of school items :D
