Do you remember the Garbage Pail Kids trading cards? First released in 1985, these trading cards were designed to make fun of the nation’s Cabbage Patch Kid mania. Each card featured a Garbage Pail Kid character, with some comical abnormality and/or suffering some terrible fate, and a humorous, word play-rich character name.
Recently, executives at Topps trading cards released some of the Garbage Pail Kids that just were not good enough to be published. Here is a sampling of some of them:
The kids look so gross… but LOL. XD
Got to love Sopranoed Steve. Although he looks similar to Spongebob with all those holes.
Rogaine Regina…’nuff said. LOL
Those are quite catchy and funny. I think I remember these, it’s been so long! I’m sure you can buy these on eBay or something. Regards!
yeah, those are quite weird :> and maybe not suitable for kids.
Topps has continued publishing “All-New Series” GPKs since then. They have added bonus cards, sketch cards or other novelty inserts, and cards with codes for using interactive features on the Garbage Pail Kids World website
I found it not child- friendly.
Aside from its being weird
i don’t see any good things from there.
That’s not ideal for the kids.
LoL this is so funny …
God damn they’re ugly. But I guess that was the point, eh ?
I wouldn’t let my kid near one of those, he might like it … Unless he started collecting Cabbage Patch Kids, in which case there would be only 2 options for me: give him these, or hang mysel
Before my time! If they had Pokemon written on the front then perhaps my arm would be twisted :p

I never understood the alure with GPK’s. I know it has it’s niche following but what’s the point? I guess if people will buy a rock with grass on it they will buy anything.
They look a little creepy.
God damn they’re ugly. But I guess that was the point.
Damn I grow up on this sh$t. Can’t remember where I put my card collection.
THIS ARTICLE IS FALSE INFORMATION…although it’s pretty damn funny. The above cards were all published by Topps back in the 80′s, BUT with different names than the above.
I get a laugh out of the people claiming these cards are not ideal for kids, LOL. I guess surfing the internet is a safer way for our kids to spend their free time..;). Anyways, it’s great to see a hobby that doesn’t involve staring at a monitor…
Oh that’s hilarous!!! I love it! I’d do
1. drunk smurf
2. pot smoking smurf (especially if someone has long hippie hair
3. a sexual couple that’s dressed raunchy and have lipstick all over their faces.
4. lazy smurf (if you have someone overweight and can do a REALLY tight shirt and tights! or
4a. A thief smurf -maybe with a cool black mask and a bag full of stolen goods.
5. A killer -like a snipper -have a big toy gun and maybe an ear piece
That’s the best i can do for now
Kill bill is my favorite!
In Kill Bill As The Bride is walking via Tokyo Airport (about an hour into the movie), she walks in front of a billboard advertising RED APPLE CIGARETTES. These non-exsistent smokes are also discovered in other Tarantino motion pictures for example Pulp Fiction (Bruce Willis’ character asks for a pack following his meeting with Marcelus Wallace inside club) and From Dusk till Dawn (There is really a pack about the dash of the Gecko brother’s car).
