Pack Break - 1986 Topps Garbage Pack Kids Series 3

While moving all of my stuff around I came across a full box of vintage GPK 3rd series cards.  I can't say I remember where I got these from or how long I've had them, but boy do these cards bring back some good memories!

I love the backs of the cards almost as much as I do the front!  I can't even begin to count the number of stickers I lost in elementary school due to the teacher taking them away!  It was OK though as my mom taught in elementary as well so any GPK stickers she would confiscate that weren't claimed by parents at the end of the school year became all mine!  

I hope to share more of my favorite stickers from the box when I get more time.  That is if anyone wants to see them.

GPK Fans...Rejoice!

While browsing the recent newsletter I got from Blowout Cards this morning I happened to see a pre-order for the following:


I never was big into non-sports cards growing up, but like a many other kids I loved Garbage Pail Kids.  Forget the stupid movie, the sticker cards were where it was at!  I loved the flashback set released earlier this year and I had no idea they were going to make a 2nd series.  The inserts seem a little better this time around.  The Adam Bomb cards ought to be interesting as he is depicted in 10 different environments.  3-D GPK cards...need I say more?  Sketch cards...love 'em or hate 'em these are pretty popular in all non-sports releases these days.  I want to place a pre-order, but I'll have to wait and see what is left over in the wallet after we're done Christmas shopping.  Good news this morning, good news indeed!
