DIRTY ROTTEN KIDS
- Released by Decal Specialties in the 1980's, this set of stickers was sold in packs as opposed to vending machines like many of the other parody sets. Each pack contained two sheets of four stickers, and one 'mini-poster' which was hardly 'poster size' (approx. 4" x 6").

FISH FLAKES
- Always eager to create controversy, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) issued this set of cards targeted at children. Perhaps trying to capitalize on the 'controversial' Garbage Pail Kids releases, these cards bear a striking resemblance in both design and character names. The purpose of the cards is to warn children of the 'dangers of eating fish'...dun, dun, dun! You see? If you eat fish you will get bad grades and throw up in the toilet. Who knew?

CHUPALECHES
- And if putting the fear of fish in kids minds wasn't enough, PETA also released a card set called "Milk Suckers"...aimed at those children who drink milk. With a tagline of "Got milk? Then you’re likely to have a few other things, too—such as gas, pimples, excess fat, and a throat full of phlegm!", how could they go wrong? The example below is the Spanish version of Milk Suckers...and for an extra laugh, be sure to watch the animations of the cards here.

THE SLOPPY SLOBS
- This parody set is one of the most common on auction sites such as eBay. Released in Italy (and Europe) in 1993, this set featured a large base set of stickers for collectors to collect.  Also, as is typical with European Garbage Pail Kids releases, The Sloppy Slobs also included a sticker album where collectors could store their collection.

TRASHCAN KIDS
- AFCO issued these vending machine stickers in 1986 at stores throughout the United States. Considerably larger than other vending machine stickers, these needed to be folded in order to fit in the plastic container. This fact makes it extremely difficult to locate a Mint condition Trashcan Kids sticker.

TRASH CAN TOTS
- Released in the late 1980's and sold in vending machines, these stickers are some of the more popular of the parody sets, and have obtained an almost cult following amongst collectors. These stickers came in strips of six characters and were released in two separate Series. The first series contained 36 stickers and the second series contained 48 stickers.
