Sales were not lame for the latest rock and roll legends. Today Topps revealed the print run for 2020 Garbage Pail Kids Rock N Roll Hall of Lame online set. The set sold a total of 719 copies. Those sales numbers are very strong for a one time online set with no sketches. GPK continues to be in high demand as 2020 starts to wrap up.

It took Topps a couple of days, but today they revealed the print run for Garbage Pail Kids Bizarre Holidays Nov. Week 2. The set sold a total of 403 copies. This is the lowest selling of the weekly holiday sets to date. The sales are down quite a bit from the previous weeks. The previous low was the Sept. week 2 set that sold 420 copies. Was this an abnormality or as retail products are now coming out, are collectors running out of money?

How can you have a bad day with GPK? Today Topps launched Garbage Pail Kids Bizarre Holidays Nov. Week 3. This week’s set contains 10 cards, 5 with a/b versions. The set also comes with one yellow parallel card. Each set can be purchased for $19.99, or in a lot of ten for $179.99. There are also 10×14 posters of each card available for $19.99. Shipping is free when choosing the SmartPost option. The set will be available for 7 days on topps.com. Topps will reveal the print run at the end of the sale.

GPK collectors love their Halloween themed cards. This past week’s themed set was no exception. After ended earlier today, Topps revealed the print run for 2020 Garbage Pail kids Halloween Stories. Topps sold a total of 2,099 packs of the themed set. While, not as successful as the previous Untold Stories set, this set still sold really well. Despite there only being 63 total sketches inserted into the run, collectors still bought a large number of packs. Based on the print run here are how many possible sets there will be to make:

• Sets – 2099 Sold x 10 cards per pack = 20990 total cards / 63 in set = 333 total sets
• Cover Insert Set – 2099 Sold x 1 per pack = 2099 / 5 in set = 419 total sets
• Chance at Stories Sketch 2099 Sold / 63 total sketches = 1:33 packs sold

There won’t be a ton of complete sets floating around, and sketches will certainly be a challenge on this one. Topps is planning two more holiday themed sets for the remainder of 2020, most likely a Thanksgiving and Christmas themed set.
