I'm a bit surprised that they're already retiring the Icelandic, Bryants Jake, Cortes C and Hickory Hills Wall Street - those were all only introduced last year, and if I remember right, some of them were mid-year releases. Usually they let a regular run go for at least two years - heck, Big Chex to Cash has been in the line since 2008. But I guess that means more new regular runs for 2018, so I can't complain too much!

I'm more excited about all the Stablemate stuff that's getting retired, including all of the single-assortment Stablemates. That means we're getting a ton of new Stablemate stuff next year! I can't wait to see what they are. Looks like my Stablemate collection may be expanding- a lot!
