Since the late 1980's, Garbage Pail Kids have been produced in dozens of countries outside the US, in a variety of formats and styles. While I do not consider myself a die-hard foreign GPK collector, I do appreciate the differences and rarity of the foreign releases. Rather than trying to complete a foreign collection, I have decided to try and obtain at least one card from each foreign release. This has actually proven to be quite a challenge in itself as some of these cards are extremely rare. I have created a different section for each Countries release. Enjoy.
