2013 Topps Chrome Garbage Pail Kids Original Series 1 takes the line back to its origins. Only this time, it’s with a heavy metal twist. Adam Bomb, Nasty Nick, Dead Ted and the rest of the GPK OGs are back in the set, which is a reprint done using chromium stock. The end result is a little more premium, a little less sticky and a lot more shiny.
2013 Topps Chrome Garbage Pail Kids Original Series 1 Checklist Details
The core of the 2013 Topps Chrome Garbage Pail Kids checklist is recreating the original 82 cards that started it all. To that end, this is a reprint release. The big difference is the presentation. Being Topps Chrome, cards are just that. They’re no longer stickers. More noticeable is the finish, which is metallic in its look.
Joining the original reprints are 28 Lost Garbage Pail Kids, cards that were on the drawing board but never made the cut back in the ’80s with the line’s original run.
Like all things Topps Chrome, there are several parallels that make things even shinier. Refractors are the most common, landing every third pack. Shine these under light and the background will shine a rainbow back at you in the background. Other versions include Prism Refractors (/199), Gold Refractors (/50), Printing Plates (1/1) and Superfractors (1/1). Retail has a couple of exclusives. Atomic Refractors are 1:3 retail packs while X-Fractors fall four per blaster box.
The rest of the 2013 Topps Chrome Garbage Pail Kids checklist is further turns on the main set.
Rare C Name Variations 20 characters a third name, playing off of the standard A/B names that have been there since the beginning.
Concept Sketch Pencil Art cards offer a look at GPK history, showing some of the early art for the line.
Finally, John Pound, a GPK icon, autographed ten copies of every base card.
