Topps Launches Garbage Pail Kids 2019 Was the Worst #1

Just when you thought Topps was done with daily online GPK cards, Topps surprises everyone. Today Topps launched Garbage Pail Kids 2019 Was the Worst Walking Joaquin #1. After abandoning daily GPK cards in the summer of 2017, Topps is trying them again. Topps is planning on releasing daily cards for the next four weeks. The set celebrates all the wackiest moments in 2019. Artwork for the set is being completed by Joe Simko, Brent Engstrom, David Gross, Joe McWilliams, and Neil Camera. Today’s first card was completed by artist Joe Simko. Back in 2017 collectors had tired of the numerous daily offerings and subpar rushed art by former Topps artists, and some of the last cards only sold in the double digits. Topps has done very well selling GPKs with the On Demand formula launched in 2018, and have set records for online sales throughout 2019. So it’s surprising Topps is going back to trying the daily sales method. Each of the new cards can be purchased for $7.99 each or in lots of 5 for $27.99, 10 for $44.99 or 20 for $74.99. Shipping is free with the SmartPost option. Each card is available for 24 hours on topps.com. Topps will reveal the print run at the end of each sale.
