Blaster Box Break: Topps Chrome Garbage Pail Kids 2013

This product was talked about so much that I just had to give it a try. And the word chrome is always tempting.

A blaster box is $19.99. It comes with 7 packs plus one bonus pack that contains 4 X-Factors. Each pack also has 4 cards per pack.

This set is a mix of old and new with taking the classic set from 1985 and turning it Chrome.

The 2013 Topps Garbage Pail Kids Chrome Original Series 1 base set has 110 cards. The 41 original characters are redone in both their A and B versions for a total of 82 cards. Fourteen Lost GPK cards have unpublished characters that didn't make the original cut. There are A and B versions of these as well bringing you to the total of 110 cards.
 

Here are some of our favorite base cards from the box we pulled.
 

  

We knew a Pete like this ;)

 


And here are the refractor parallels from the box. We pulled three:
 
Keith Out..Hilarious!

  


And the four card X-factor pack had these:
  




Overall was a fun break. You can also find other refractor parallels along with randomly inserted autographs and printing plates.

Let us know your thoughts on Garbage Pail Kids and your thoughts on Topps Chroming them!
