Garbage Pail Kids

If you were a kid in the 80’s or 90’s I’m sure you’ll instantly recognize a number of these fantastically disturbing cards from the Garbage Pail Kids. I loved collecting and trading them when I was younger. They were released by Topps Company in 1985 and are still made to this day.

I did not realize (and I don’t know how this escaped me) but there was a live action movie made in 1987 titled The Garbage Pail Kids Movie. Apprently it didn’t do so well and is what we refer to as a flop. Either way I think I’ll head over to Amazon to buy a copy just because.

These cards were (and are) so awesome on so many levels. I mean, how can you dispute the greatness of Barfin’ Barbara, Interracial Rachel or Thin Lynne, or the prophetic wisdom of Harry Potty, & Christina Ugulera . Here for your viewing pleasure are 44 of some of the best (or worst) of the bunch. Enjoy!
