Each card took a news story from 2019 and put a GPK-spin on it.
The gallery above contains the final sticker artwork, artist name, release date, and print run for every card in the set
There were TWO ERROR CARDS in the release:
- #16 Bottlecap CHAD was sent to collectors with a #7 in the corner
- #20 Announcing ADAM was sent to collectors with the normal '2019 Was The Worst' back as opposed to the checklist
In both instances Topps mailed out the correct versions to collectors at no additional cost
Lastly, even though when Card #6 was released for sale it originally had the name 'MIMI Meme', Topps changed the image immediately and ended up shipping out only ONE version titled KAT Fight
