Topps Reveals Print Run for Garbage Pail Kids x Comic Con Oh the Horror-ible
Topps today revealed the print run for 2021 Garbage Pail Kids x Comic Con Oh the Horror-ible. The set is an expansion pack to the very popular retail sets released the last few years. The set sold a total of 1,741 copies. Topps confirmed with GPKNews these numbers do not include sales of the sets at NYCC, so the print run of the base set is considerably higher. Topps did not reveal how many sets were sold at NYCC. Only the online version of the set comes with one Sepia parallel card. Based on the online print run, the Sepia’s are limited to 174 copies per card. The sales number is a very good number for Topps, considering sets were also sold at NYCC and there are no sketches offered with this one.

Garbage Pail Kids Collector’s Club Set #3 GPsKaters
Collectors who have subscribed to Topps’ GPK Collector’s Club began receiving the third set in the year long club. Thanks to Uncle Louie from GPKNation for the picture of his set. The set is called GPsKaters. The set, which is focuses on Joe Blow, includes 20 base cards and 1 header card. Artists David Gross, Joe Simko, Brent Engstrom, Joe McWilliams, and Neil Camera each did 2 pieces of art for the set. The set depicts GPKs all doing their best skateboard moves with a Joe Blow theme. Topps informed club members recently that the included gift with this set is delayed at customs. Topps said they will be shipping the gift separately from the set. Here are a few pictures of some of the final art created by the artists for the set.
Topps Reveals Print Run for Garbage Pail Kids Krashers Series 2
After the sale clock officially ended today, Topps revealed the print run for 2021 Topps On Demand #9 Garbage Pail Kids Krashers Series 2. According to Topps, they sold a total of 2,504 sets. This set is the third highest selling online GPK set to date, and top selling On Demand set. It took six days to sell out, but despite longer sketch odds and previous On Demand collation issues, collectors still showed up to purchase. Based on the odds and print runs released for the foil parallels, the sketch odds appear to be slightly better than 1:3. Gold Foils /50, mean there are 1000 total gold foils, while rainbow foils /25, mean there are 500 total rainbow foil cards. If the sketches fall 1:3 sets that should mean 750 sketches and 2250 total sets. Unless Topps adds an unannounced parallel, based on the actually print run, there will be 1004 sketches total inserted. This puts the actual sketch odds at 1:2.5, which should make collectors happy. It looks like Topps will be back to offering various online sets the rest of the year after taking many months off.
