The ‘Basuritas
and Monsters’ set was re-released throughout Argentina twice
in 2001, with the stickers manufactured by the Industria Argentina company.
One set contains the ‘MONSTERS‘ stickers with
a tie-dye affect, the second and cheaper re-produced set has the ‘MONSTERS‘
stickers with a solid red background, both very different than the sharp,
solid yellow background in the original 2000 release. The set covers
several cards of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th,  5th, 6th, and 8th U.S.
series, not in any particular order plus some original artwork found
in no other international release. The cards measure slightly smaller
than 2 1/4 x 2 3/4 inches, roughly 50 x 68-70 mm, and are non-die
cut stickers.

The Argentina Basuritas 189 sticker set is
a direct reproduction of the Argentina 2000 set with a gloss finish,
same red border, without any chase cards, and adding stickers 145-189
that were originally from the 1999 Chile Basuritas release and the 45
‘Trading Cards’ set from the 2000 release added as sticker images. The
set is much duller and washed out, not as sharp as the Argentina 2000
set, and the red colors are over supersaturated. The Stickers come 4
to a pack and are printed on plain white paper stock.
