Every order comes with a "Geeky Guy" promo card to complete the full set of four for this character (P1 was from SDCC, P2 from NYCC, P3 at Philly).
Also, 50 random orders will include a variant to "Lick it Upton" with a 3rd name for the character.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Martian Commander,

The P4 from the con series is "Geeky GUY", not Gary. It looks like "Smilin' STAN" is a second P4 for the regular-size promo but is CC13a in jumbo size.This message has been edited. Last edited by: allender,

I think Jeff is correct, P1-P4 are all part of a singular "convention" series. P1-P3 just happen to have the same image, and they changed it up for the 4th promo.

Just look at it like P1-P4 are the four different names for the same image of the Comic-Con kid and that P4 "Smilin' Stan" should've been numbered P5, making it an uncorrected error.
That, or else, look at "Smilin Stan" as an alternate version of the P4 with Stan instead of the nerd kid shown on it.
But just to be safe, as soon as I get my P4 with the kid on it from my Topps order, I'm going to firmly adhere it to the "Smilin Stan" P4 (that I bought on Ebay with some Gorilla Glue I bought at Ace Hardware), that way, there's no further confusion.This message has been edited.

I think we're all puzzled just by the fact that there are two P4's. The "con guys" are P1-P2-P3-P4 (including Geeky) and Stan is another P4 that *appears* to be a mistake in numbering, but perhaps it's the first card to show up from a different series of promos.
Or there's something even more obscure going on: In the modern era, there was a P1 SDCC 2008 exclusive for GPK All-New Series 7 and a P2 SDCC 2007 exclusive for GPK All-New Series 6 (backwards numbering, yet). There was an unnumbered Batty BRAD promo for All-New Series 4 and apparently a B1 for ANS3. I can't see a sequence there.
P1 Comic CONNER, P2 Fan BOYD, P3 Cosplay CODY, and P4 Smilin' STAN all are marked as promos for 2014 Series 2. I assume P4 Geeky GUY is marked that way too, since Topps links it directly with 2014 Series 2, but I haven't seen the back.
So I adhere to chesspieceface's first option. We'll all have to get our glue guns out.
Maybe Stan chose to reboot the promo franchise? I think his P4 is a mutant, and maybe we'll see a P6 at Memorabilia!
