Australia released a series of Garbage Pail Kids under the alternate THE GARBAGE GANG banner. These sets shared similarities with the US releases, with a few small changes


Australia released their own version of Garbage Pail Kids under The Garbage Gang banner.

Produced by Regina Co, the Australia releases are 'small' in size - similar to the UK Series 1 release - measuring 2.1" x 3".

Regina offered a series of card collectors albums via a mail-in offer on their Series 2 wrappers. There were 3 albums to collect

The GPK releases from Australia are extremely similar to New Zealand, but one easy way to tell the difference is the banners: NZ cards have the arched banner, and AUS cards feature the straight banner


Below you will find information on the Garbage Pail Kids releases from Australia, including pictures of stickers, wrappers, and more.
