Challenge for settings:GURPS TOON

KINDA pricey!? I couldn't see a dead tree version for under $100! I was planning on getting an e-book reader and if Amazon has a digital version for about $2 then I'll wait until then.
I found my old copy of TOON and enjoyed reading it. I can see where cartoons can bend the GURPS system. GURPS is very skill oriented (which I like) and the TOON system is very wildcard. And, as I mentioned, I am renting the Looney Toons Golden Collection and I can see where wildcard skills would be needed to replicate the cartoons. I have a few Woody Woodpecker and other cartoons and they are similar.
I wonder if it would be fun to play a cartoon character who knows that he is a cartoon character and ignores the 4th wall?
