Are Garbage Pail Kids and MLB baseball players a match made in heaven? We are about to find out. Today Topps launched 2022 Topps MLB x Garbage Pail Kids Series 1 by Keith Shore. The set consists of GPKs of current and former MLB baseball players. All artwork for the set was done by Keith Shore. Shore has previously done artwork on baseball card sets, and curated the two Taste Buds GPK sets this year. The base set consists of 30 card, 15 players with a/b versions. The set is structured much like the recent Ermsy set. Each pack purchased comes with 5 base cards and 1 chase card. The chase cards are numbered parallels (silver /150, rainbow /99, green /75, orange /50, blue /25, purple /10, red /5, and gold lava 1/1), C name insert, Keith Shore portrait (1:10), or Keith Shore auto (1:50). Collectors can purchase a pack for $19.99 or a 5 pack box for $95. Shipping is free when choosing the Economy/Smart Post option. There is no timer on the sale, but also no limits on C name cards, so I’m not sure when the sale will end. Here is the checklist along with pictures of the cards.
