Super Impulse Garbage Pail Kids Micro Collection Mystery Packs Surface

Did Santa bring you all the GPK toys you wanted for Christmas? If not it’s time to go buy your own! The Super Impulse Garbage Pail Kids Micro Collection Mystery Packs that were announced back in July, are now live. Thanks to GPK collector Rachel Dahlke for sending along pictures of the toys she found at her local Meijer store today.  Each mystery pack contains 1 GPK Figure, 1 Wacky GPK Mini, 2 cards, and 2 checklist. Packs sell for anywhere from $4.99-$7.99 in the store. In total there are 31 different GPK figures, 23 Wacky GPK Minis, and 24 cards to collect. That includes parallel figures that are more rare than others. Keep your eyes out in retail stores that carry mini mustery packs, as these should start showing up in more places soon.

Funko Launches Garbage Pail Kids Series 2 Figures

file-nov-29-2-25-00-pmThank to GPK collector Bob Sam Syldel for being the first to spot these in the wild. It appears that today the Funko Garbage Pail Kids Series 2 Big Mystery Minis began showing up in stores. With a nice touch, Funko is using blue as the packaging to match the OS series 2 pack color. The set consists of 12 figures, the same figures that were mentioned in the order sent to distributors a couple of months back. Just like with the first series of Funko figures, there doesn’t appear to be any chase or special figures. This release comes with zero marketing so far from Funko. No mention of the set has been made on their website or on social media accounts. Its an odd course of action considering Funko markets most of their releases agressivily. You should be able to find these where Funkos are sold very soon, if not today. Here is the checklist along with pictures of the figures.

  • Buggy Betty
  • Beasty Boyd
  • Brainy Brian
  • Corroded Carl
  • Brainy Jane
  • Split Kit
  • Richie Retch
  • Frying Ryan
  • Sy Clops
  • Kim Kong
  • Eerie Eric
  • Mean Gene

It looks like the Funko/Topps license deal will continue. After launching Mystery Minis GPK Series 1 last July, it looks like pre-orders have started for distributors for Funko Mystery Minis Garbage Pail Kids Series 2. Thanks to GPK artist Chad Scheres for the heads up on this one. Set to release in Mid-November, there will once again be 12 figures to a box. No mention of any chase figures, similar to the Series 1 release. While Funko hasn’t released images of the toys yet the picture below shows mock-ups of the 12 figures available in Series 2.

Funko Releases Garbage Pail Kids Figures

Funko Garbage Pail Kids figures have been spotted both in Hot Tropic stores and online. These long awaited figures come in two different styles. The Mystery Minis come 1 to a box, and 12 in an inner case. There are no mention of rare parallels so a case of 12 should net you a set.

Funko is also releasing a giant size Adam Bomb figure. The figures measures 10″. Pre-orders from various companies should be shipping next week. Keep your eyes out in stores for these new figures.
