What are the origins of these Garbage Pail Kids Chrome Series 6 Names?

I cannot for the life of me figure out what these names are supposed to represent. I think Calvin Shrine might be a play off of Calvin Shrine but I’m not sure, and Dom Gunk kind of sounds like Tom Bunk but that’s a bit of a stretch, and I have no idea what the namesake of Jaeger Lumber is. Could any of you guys please help me? Thanks.

What are the origins of these Garbage Pail Kids Chrome Series 7 Card Names?

These names are absolutely eating away at my sanctity. I have no idea what these names are supposed to reference. Well, that’s not exactly true. I have the damnedest idea of what some of them are supposed to mean. Glover Udder and Osborne Swarm sound like they could be rhymes but I can’t really be sure, and Herr Done kind of sounds like “hair done”, but I’m not sure of that either seeing as how it’s not a generally recognized phrase and I have absolutely no idea of what Gears of Moore could mean. Garbage Pail Kids World gives explanations for a few GPK names, but I can’t find the webpage for chrome series 7, so if any of you guys can help with this, it would be very appreciated. Thanks.

Error card questions (again)

I know these cards errors are not on the listed items as normal errors. But I’ve seen some other ones with random errors go for more in feebay. If they’re basically now something to make buttons out of that’s fine. Just don’t want to get rid of something that might be able to find a better home.

Cliff hanger has what looks like die cut circles which would have been done by the factory (??) as it doesn’t go all the way through the card stock.

And no. The photos of the cards is not the issue. Those cards are blurry or have multiple line issues. Creating a shadow

Any thoughts, suggestions, insults appreciated by the Gpk fam.

I hope the guy that sent me this see's this post.

An awesome dude sent me this as I was putting together a set for my nephews b-day. In the interim I had to delete that account and I had forgotten his username. I never gave him a proper Thank you. So,

Thank you.

Cannibal Holocaust in GPK

Was going through my “Revenge of Oh the Horror-ible” cards and spotted this one. I must have missed it my first time looking through. Anyway, crazy movie, but I love to see it referenced in GPK! Anyone else surprised by a certain GPK reference? What was it?

1st time at Comerica Park today

Looks like rain but I'll get to check out the stadium at least. Heard it's a good one with the kids. Posting a tigers GPK for good luck

Fran Fran found in the wild

I hardly ever see GPK in the wild. So this was a fun surprise at my local Half Price Books at the checkout counter. Paid $7 for Fran Fran (glossy)—she’ll go in my (small) collection. The others were $7 in a “random” bag—I might save some, and mail the doubles to friends

Is any of this worth anything?

I have almost all series 1 cards but most in average condition.

I also have the 39 of 41 5x7 series 1 in good condition

Clean scans with no watermarks?

Hi all! Very quick question to which I already think the answer is no, since I've looked and failed to find anything. GeePeeKay is a great resource and has scans of literally all the cards, but they all have watermarks on. Is there anywhere that has scans, but clean without the marks? Likely not, as I said, but I had to ask.

Question about cards acquired through estate.

A friend of mine got these cards through an estate and is curious of the value. He is not on reddit, but I've seen this sub come up on my suggestions - I am unfamiliar with Garbage Pail Kids.

Apologies if this is not the right place for this or if I am using incorrect flair!

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

How’d I do?

Snagged these at a thrift store today at $.50 a card. 190 total. Brings me back to being a kid. I don’t really care what they are worth it’s just cool having them again.

My Favorite Pull from GPK 40th

I found the GPK 40th launch to be equal parts fun and frustrating. I was only able to grab 2 boxes at a decent price, while the price of the other 3 made me feel like a gamblin’ man. This was my best pull and as a a fan of potassium and gold foil, one with which I’ll never part, especially since Fanatics seems to think we only want on demand releases. Here’s to hoping GPK Universe releases before 2030!
