The
year 2024 continued GPK licenses from existing contracts, in the absence of retired Ira Friedman (VP of Licensing & Publishing), and brand-new contracts are currently in question, although it is rumoured Fanatics wanted to limit and reduce the amount of GPK licenses for the time being.

A GRIP SKATEBOARDS™‘ABOUT US’ per website: Get a Grip Skateboards was EXPLICITLY formed out of an incomprehensible addiction and passion for GPK. Sure, we liked what Santa Cruz did with their decks back in 2017 (nothing but love SC!) – but we felt that the story was left unfinished. There ARE other characters than just Adam Bomb, right? We can always find more room on our walls, right? Yes and YES. And THAT is why we decided to write a new chapter in the GPK Skateboard history book. We had a dream; we are living it right now, and it is time for you to get a grip, get on board, get crazy, and do a god darn kickflip!

DECOMMISSIONING ANNOUNCEMENT
On January 31, 2024, Jago Studios took to Facebook to announce that the GPK Game would no longer be supported on its servers past the end of March, stating, “To all our players, and to all fans of the Garbage Pail Kids, we want to say THANK YOU!!! Thank you for playing with us these past years. And thank for the opportunity to play in your world. We’ve made the difficult decision to sunset GPK:TheGame, which from today will no longer be available for download from the app stores. For existing players, the game will remain live through March 31st, 2024. It’s been a weird and wonderful pleasure to join the GPK lore. Hopefully it brought some smiles and memories to see some of your favorite GPK characters brought to life. Whether you’ve grown out of the cards or not, keep reverence for their irreverence. It’s always better in the trash heap, together.” The GPK license may have ended, may not have been extended, or Fanatics may not have made it an option; starting in late 2023, they wanted to limit GPK licensing going forward. |

Super7
has released GPK product for several years, including a Universal Monster mash-up card sets & t-shirts in 2019 & 2020, and GPK ReAction ADAM Bomb figures from 2020 to present. On May 29, 2024, Super7 took to their social media channels to post a close-up shot of another ADAM Bomb ReAction figure & ‘Cheaters License’ card back, and possibly hinting at another release, simply stating, “Don’t press that button! #ComingTomorrow”. Curiously, for their Vol.35 No.3 June/July 2024 issue, the Non-Sport Update publication had a small write-up on the GITD figure that was released in 2022 and has been SOLD OUT for quite some time, at least on the Super7 website; new product posted to Entertainment Earth, etc. in May 2024 (Item Number: SUP81728).
