Topps Launches Garbage Pail Kids We Hate the 80’s Expansion Set Week 1
Totally rad! GPKs are going back to the 80’s in the latest online series from Topps. Today they launched Garbage Pail Kids We Hate the 80’s Expansion Set Week 1. This will be the second six week online series based off a previously released retail set. The original We Hate the 80’s set was launched back in 2018. This week’s set has 10 cards, 5 new pieces in a/b versions. Artists David Gross and Brent Engstrom are handling all the artwork for the expansion series. Each set ordered also comes with one sepia parallel card. The set can be purchased for $19.99 or in a lot of 10 for $179.99. Shipping is free when choosing the economy/SmartPost option. The set is available for 7 days on Topps.com. Topps will reveal the print run at the end of the sale. Here is the checklist along with pictures of the cards.
Topps Reveals Print Run for Topps x Ermsy Entertainment Blend
After ending earlier today, Topps revealed the print run for Topps x Ermsy Entertainment Blend. The online series featuring Ermsy’s take on GPKs, Wacky Packages, Mars Attacks, and Ugly Stickers sold a total of 9,986 packs. Ermsy’s popularity along with the lure of Garbage Pail Kids art proved to be a success for Topps. While not labeled a GPK set, those sales would make it the second highest selling online GPK set, just behind the Gamestonk set from a few years ago. The set was sold in 6 card packs, 5 base cards and 1 “hit”. Based on the total number of packs sold the base card print run can be broken down as follows:
- Base Sets: 9986 Packs x 5 cards per pack = 49,930 total base cards / 20 cards in set = 2,496 number of base sets
Topps has confirmed with GPKNews that the B Names and Chopped Chase cards are not being printed in the same quantities, so there isn’t a way to determine the print run on those. With only 720 foils and 100 autos, there will be a lot of either the Chopped chase or B names. After this set proved to be successful, it will be interesting to see if Topps does another series with Ermsy, or another outside GPK artist.
