Gpk From Argentina

Argentina received several distinct incarnations of Garbage Pail Kids over the years, beginning with the original Basuritas run and expanding quickly into Basuritas & Monsters following the popularity of the first two series. Later, in 2004, the country saw nationwide distribution of the All-New Series 1 Los Asquerositos Album Sticker set. In keeping with the custom of foreign markets, these releases were paired with collector albums featuring dedicated pages where stickers could be peeled and stuck into place, surrounded by advertisements and details highlighting other products.

That set included a psychedelic Monster card showing a creature with no resemblance to a traditional Garbage Pail Kid, alongside a Buscado or Wanted sticker that left the namebar empty so owners could ink in their own selections. Those Buscado inserts returned for Basuritas 2, which also introduced circular pog cards punched out of heavier card stock: a novelty found in no other foreign Garbage Pail Kids release.

Basuritas 3 introduced four different wrapper designs while revamping the insert card layout. These updated Buscado stickers shifted to a horizontal format showing two characters on the front, while the reverse provided a set of lines intended for writing down names.
