GPK x NYC Takeover
Topps issued GPK x NYC Takeover in 2019 through New York Comic Con and an online sale. Attendees at New York Comic Con had the first crack at the boxes on October 3, while other collectors had to wait for a seven-day online window that ran from October 7 to October 14. The price was $40.00 across both channels, but fans who bought their copies in person walked away with a bonus in the form of an exclusive promo card with each set. Straying from earlier offerings like Valentine's and SNS by selling in advance at the convention, the release reached the end of its timer with copies still remaining from the total run of 250 sets. The set did not sell out.
The boxed set delivered a twenty-card base checklist numbered 1a to 10a and 1b to 10b. The checklist included New Wave DAVE, Smelly SALLY, KIM Kong, Split KIT, Greaser GREG, Travelin' TRAVIS, Fishy PHYLLIS, Slobby ROBBIE, and Graffiti PETEY. In addition to the base stickers, each box contained an insert from a ten-card run of "c" Name Stickers, numbered 1c to 10c.
Boxes also included six parallels and a chance at an Artist Sketch Card. The parallels were drawn from two distinct twenty-card versions, with Green borders falling at three per set and Pink borders landing at two per box. Topps produced 250 sets in total, with convention purchasers receiving one exclusive promo card per set.
