This stuff is simply disgusting, sure it took some artistic ability to create it, but I expect better from the people of Abduzeedo than to post stuff like this. Seriously, there are people under the age of 18 that look at this site, and the least you could do is put some kind of warning, like, "Warning graphic content: contains gore, etc." I really hope I don't see more stuff like this again on this site.

Wow, that's quite a blast from the past. Part of my childhood memories I had completely forgotten about, thanks for the reminder.

These are totally awesome man! They bring back so many memories!

P.S. Micheal is a little bitch who probably lives a very sheltered life.
Shut the fuck up bitch.

That is some VERY weird art... quite disgusting... disturbing... Not very Abduzeedo-ish.

And I agree with Michael. I'm 15, I can look a these pics but still, it's inappropriate.

Geez, I don't know what's the matter if you people, moralists. I used to collect these when I was 8 years old. I don't see any problem in these. And cartoons nowadays are just like these, like The Simpson's Itchy and Scratch... geez, pleople. Please.

I mean, it's nice of you to share, but probably because I'm younger, I've never seen these things before, so I'm not familiar with these, but still, it's pretty gross. =D

If people like this, good, but I can understand why some don't. ^^

Holy cow there are some negative people on here. Its ART! Its Badass! I used to see this stuff when i was like 5.....Maybe you guys shouldn't come on the site then....I hope to see many more posts like this!

I used to have SOOO many of these cards! I still regret the day I traded all my cards to a friend for his He-man collection. ARGHH! Did I see the origins of Spongebob Squarepants above?

Kind of gross, but really awesome. I'm 14 and I have no problem viewing these things, mainly because their awesomeness overshadows their gross parts :D

WHERE DID YOU FIND THAT? I JUST LOVE GPK

pelamordedeus eu tinha o album, os 2 albuns de figurinhas!

DO YOU HAVE THE OLD ILLUSTRATIONS FOR THE ILLUSTRATED ALBUM?

AGGGHHHH PIREI NA BATATINHA

i really can't believe it, i looked all over mercadolivre.com for an old album and never found anything and then you show up with the guy's site.

must be a message from nostalgia heaven

i was born 1982 and this is pretty much basics to my childhood memories. do you happen to remember the ploc monsters, or the pepsi rubber creatures we used to trade for the bottle's cap?

do you remember 1980's "decalques" and the fabulous arts? i can even remember the smell!

thankyou so much Paulo!

f*ck! the guy got serious issues!

That's funny. These are obviously new versions (see the Matrix reference in one of the illustrations).

I remember my brother collecting these when I was a kid, and yes, they were just as disgusting but they never traumatized me. Honestly, they gave my brother and I a good chuckle.

The thing I miss is all the clever names they gave the illustrations. None of these modern versions have a name for each kid. I can't remember any of the names from the old ones, but they told an even greater story when accompanied by the illustration.

It's funny people take offense at these things, but then perhaps they weren't exposed to these kinds of things as children as some of us were and are therefore hypersensitive to it. Nothing wrong, exactly, with being sensitive towards violence, but it also helps to remember this is all just make-believe, too.

Search flickr and you'll find a lot of photos of some of the original cards/stickers:

Wow! this is amazing

That's legend. Donn sent me on the link. What a blast from the past. Brilliant.

I wonder where the hell all my cards went to...

Yup, sure is gross!... But that's what I love about it! Good ol' Ren & Stimpy / Itchy & Scratchy style gore!

I've never heard of the Garbage Pail Kids before tonight, but I love them already. I'm gonna stand on the opposite side of the room to Michael - more like this is fine by me!

Ah, I've always loved these, I remember havin' some as a kid!

@Michael, I'm almost certain these cards were aimed for children, not adults.

@Everyone else, there's no reason to be rude. ;o

I loved these things as a kid, and partly credit them to my love of gory movies and death metal in later years of my life lol I remember they were very controversial in the day and if launched now would be equally so. They were created to parody Cabbage Patch Kids and at one stage they were sued by them. Thanks for bringing back so many good memories :)

Just noticed people whinging about these down below lol Is good to see they haven't lost their effect all these years on. For the record, they were made for kids so I don't really see why a warning is neccesary lol

what's with the "disgusting" comments?? This guy can post whatever he likes, this is his website, helllllooo????? doh...

If you don't like the post, don't come in and read, make your own site or blog and curse all you want... otherwise, shut up.....

Um... This is an inspiration and design website. This is a really cool insipiration! I know it could be "gore" but does these pictures are aswome? It's great to see diversity and I'm sure 90% of active people on this site are over 18..

my brother still has our old cards ... those were the days *sight*

man I feel old reading some of these comments. "Warning graphic content: contains gore, etc." really!? I started collecting these things in '85... i was 6. wow kids are sensitive these days.

anyhoo, well done, love'em, these are excellent!!

Absolutely amazing stuff here. Wow, I am speechless.

I can still smell the bubblegum that came with them. Ahh, the good old days.

I remember these card always gave me a very weird feeling as a kid. I wouldn't say they damaged me, but they definitely destroyed a little bit of my innocence. Great collection- takes me back. Great site design too, bravo!

Wow, these bring me back, even though some of them are clearly new. I remember saving up 2 bucks in quarters and buying 8 packs one day in first grade. It was glorious, even if the gum was basically inedible (which didn't stop me from sticking 8 pieces in my face as I unwrapped the cards).

The comments saying they're inappropriate are absolutely hysterical. If you're offended by something as innocuous as these, do you really think you should even be on the internet?

We used to have those in France too and I used to collect them ! :)

And don't worry about the "under 18" people who might look at this page, they can easily find "worse" things on the net...

Thanks for posting these! Lots of memories. I'm 31 years old and loved looking at these when I was a kid. Granted, I'm a girl and thought they were disgusting and preferred the real Cabbage Patch Kids, but I remember the boys in my class going insane over these illustrations. Gross but I enjoyed looking at them too. Haha!

Thanks for posting! I bet the cards are highly collectible.

those are great, anyone remember collectibles called eurostyles (just like the font) featuring amazing graphics, i used to collect those when i was a kid, and now impossible to find them back...

Guillaume is right. There is worst on the net... I never saw this on my side :( Maybe I'm to young.. Just got 18 this summer.

Really nice!

Anyone else notice the one that looks just like spongebob?

Dont find much stuff like this these days.

Did you anyone saw ?

I think those guys that didn´t apreciate this post are too young. I collected those cards when I was 11 (unfortunately I just completed half of the album), and it was a very good influence for my drawings. I still think that GPK is a very good reference for illustration. And still very funny for me :o)

Very good post.

Absolutely fantastic! Thanks for the trip down memory lane. ^_^ I had these stuck all over my Trapper Keepers when I was in gradeschool. I wonder what else they could come up with if they started producing these again?

I can't believe these were popular when I was growing up. http://www.clownoftheday.com

FilthyRichmond.com is teh taint.

I looked into it and none of these are the originals, so that is definitely a spongebob parody - not inspiration ;). These are pretty cool, they really take me back to the big yellow bus days. I wonder if there will be a new series, or if the artist these came from was simply inspired by the originals.

I Love these cards, in fact, i still have over 2,000 of them. I have all of every original series from 2-15 and most of series 1. If anyone wants scans I might be pursuaded to scan some.

Thanks guys for the interesting comments. I love to hear each and everyone's thoughts. :)

Oh, brother! Michael, take your hanky outside.

Are these from some new series? They can't be from the 80's sets, because one of them pretty obviously mocks Paris Hilton, which would place the vintage of these images to only the past few years or so.

This brings back memories. I used to collect them. I had almost the whole first series. I wish I kept them. oh well. thanks for the post!

man this is badass man keep it up,
i like the batman one -Adam bomb #2-

Two words: THANK YOU!

Pretty ghoulish, yet very watchable.

michael, go back to your crib and suck your thumb till you reach the bone.

great stuff,excellent.All you's who have a problem with these,F--KOFF!!!!

hey,seriously..check out that blonde one,anyone else see paris hilton man??? please tell me i'm not the only one who caught that lol..and just think ,these pics disturbed SOME people,but alot of people look at her and do't get offended! WEIRD..I GET OFFENDED SEEING HER MUG,NOT THESE!!

Wow, that brings back some memories, honestly those things used to scare the hell out of me!

damn, these things are scary as hell.........my friend thinks so too but in a way they are awesome.
