PATTY PUTTY — Semi-rhyme; the name Patty with the word ‘putty’. A parody of the toy product Silly Putty. def’n: Putty – A dough-like cement used to fill holes. 42b MUGGIN’ MEGAN — Semi-rhyme; the name Megan with the word ‘mug+ging’. def’n: Mug – slang. The face of a person. A grimace. def’n: Pull a face – idiomatic. To make an abnormal facial expression.
& BOBS: — Pound’s Silly Putty gag titled ‘MAKING FACE‘ was the second concept he executed for the OS2 set, although it was revised per notes on Pound’s tight pencil and color roughs; 2-02 (R). To ‘make a face’ — or faces — is defined as producing an expression on one’s face that shows dislike, disgust or some other negative emotion. Or, one that is intended to be fun and amusing. — The background color was chosen to be the beloved ‘royal blue’ tint for the box and wrapper. Due to this color choice ADAM Bomb’s blue suit has been changed to red for the wrapper — rendered artwork by Tom Bunk. This very nostaglic color-combination was also used for the Imperial Toys GPK packaging. — The character was one of the main cast members for the cancelled 1987 CBS Garbage Pail Kids cartoon of 13 episodes later released by Paramount on DVD in 2006. The cartoon cells were created by artist Geof Darrow. — The character was one of four 2nd Series characters out of ten used in the U.S. Cheap Toys figurine line released in 1986 (middle right). The checklist line artwork was rendered by artist George Evans; the figurine is standing. — Artist George Evans created the rendered wrapper artwork for the 1986 GPK Chewy Candy release (far right); not all images are known to have been used for the final product. The character’s diaper was changed to a different color so it wasn’t ‘lost’ in the wrapper. — Twelve 2nd Series characters and sticker write-ups show up in the 2013 and 2014 MiniKins releases of resin figures that are reminiscent of the 1986 Cheap Toys characters; text by Pat Barrett and Colin Walton. |

SMELLY KELLY — Rhyme; the name Kelly with the word ‘smelly’. def’n: Smelly – Having an unpleasant odor. 43b DOUG PLUG — Rhyme; the name Doug with the word ‘plug’. def’n: Plug – An object used to stop a hole. A fire plug — when water mains were made from wood. def’n: Fire hydrant, (aka fireplug) – A connection point by which firefighters can tap into a water supply.
& BOBS: — Pound executed a gag that centers around ‘territorial marking’ (aka scent marking) for the OS2 set; a behaviour of animals that involves the urination or spraying to mark or identify their territory. A road was added to Pound’s concept to add depth and to set the scene for the victim of the impending ‘golden shower’. One of many inanimate GPK objects to come. — In 1987, Topps started plans on a 2nd Series ‘mini’ set during the production of the 9th Series release. Several acetate test cards with the code 4-490-05-03-7 appeared on eBay sold by the Topps Vault. Minus the ‘PEEL HERE‘ arrow, facing in the die-cut direction, this has a very ‘international’ release feel to it and could be a mock-up. This may have been a last ditch effort to create product prior to the lawsuit outcome (far right). — Twelve 2nd Series characters and sticker write-ups show up in the 2013 and 2014 MiniKins releases of resin figures that are reminiscent of the 1986 Cheap Toys characters; text by Pat Barrett and Colin Walton. Minus the variations, the DOUG Plug character is actually painted red, like the symbolic fire hydrant color. |

SY CLOPS = Cyclops. def’n: Cyclops – A mythical, primoridal race of centered, one-eyed giants within Greek and later Roman mythology. Sometiems shown with a horn protruding from the forehead. 44b ONE-EYED JACK — A slang expression for a person missing an eye. def’n: Jack – A fellow, chap. def’n: One-eyed – Having one eye.
BITS& BOBS: — The fourth gag Pound executed for the OS2 set titled ‘CYCLOPS‘ (2-04) that was a concept of Mark Newgarden’s taken directly from the1985 Gross Bears Big Bad Buttons set that he worked on exclusively with Tom Bunk. Bunk’s color rough (bottom left) is a concept limited to a smaller, round button shape compared to Pound’s fully fleshed-out rendition; button #19 CYCLOPS BEAR. The image was published to card within the 2017S2 release; #18. — Artist George Evans created the rendered wrapper artwork for the 1986 GPK Chewy Candy release (bottom right); not all images are known to have been used for the final product. The character’s diaper was changed to a different color so it wasn’t washed out due to the white wrapper. — The 2014 Chrome OS2 set contained several chase cards including 20 rare C-names; 44c Giant GILES. — Twelve 2nd Series characters and sticker write-ups show up in the 2013 and 2014 MiniKins releases of resin figures that are reminiscent of the 1986 Cheap Toys characters; text by Pat Barrett and Colin Walton. — The character became one of Funko’s Mystery Minis sculpted vinyl figures in 2016; thirty-one years later. |

LEAKY LINDSAY — Lindsay; L name to go with the word ‘leak+y’. def’n: Leak – A hole, crack, or similar opening through which something can escape or pass. 45b MESSY TESSIE — Rhyme; the name Tessie with the word ‘messy’. def’n: Messy – Untidy; dirty; disordered. def’n: Mess – An unspecified amount (of something).
BITS& BOBS: — The fifth gag Pound executed for the OS2 set titled ‘SNOT‘ (2-05) is based off of his own concept, but the cat’s cradle string of snot, a child’s game in which a loop of string is put around and between the fingers and complex patterns are formed, between the two hands may have been Art Spiegelman’s idea. The word ‘sine’ from the ‘SINE OFF‘ bottle comes from the Latin word ‘sinus’ meaning curve – a narrow curved pathway; nasal passageway. — The character was used for the first GPK puzzle for the first production run of the OS2 set, replaced by 53a Jolted JOEL and 53b Live MIKE characters for the following production runs. The 2014 Chrome set contains both puzzles but not in the same order or with the same card backs. — The character was one of four 2nd Series characters out of ten used in the U.S. Cheap Toys figurine line released in 1986 (middle right). The checklist line artwork was rendered by artist George Evans. — The GPK Buttons used the same outline for all 12 buttons. Part of the cat’s cradle is strangely missing from the head area of the snotty character with an eerie human-like mouth remaining; touched up by the Topps Art Department. The same magenta color is used for the ‘BLESS YOU!‘ expression as the original nameplate color (far right). — The character was one of twelve OS2 MiniKins in 2013 & 2014 and became one of Funko’s Mystery Minis sculpted vinyl figures in 2015 and a POP! figure in 2021; thirty & thirty-six years later, respectively. — The 2014 Chrome OS2 set contained several chase cards including 20 rare C-names; 58c Booger BETTY. |

RAPPIN’ RON — Ron; R name to go with the word ‘rap+ping’. A visual parody of Ronald Reagan; the 40th U.S. President. def’n: Rap – To talk freely and openly. 46b RAY GUN = Reagan; the 80’s President. A visual parody of Ronald Reagan; the 40th U.S. President. def’n: Gun – To seek to catch, overcome, or gain (speechwise).
BITS& BOBS: — Pound executed a ‘presidential’ concept for the OS2 set that was a visual and name parody of President Ronald Reagan. Mark Newgarden’s rendition of ADAM Bomb from OS1 was the President pushing the nuke button; this idea was brought over to the 2nd Series set and the character was placed behind a podium holding a pair of guns — hence, the B-name namesake. The guns were removed prior to the color rough and final version; the 2014 OS2 Chrome set has the color rough instead of the tight pencil within the variation ‘sketch’ set (far left). — One of the only cards found with a black (A-name) and white (B-name) card numbers. The white number tends to appear ‘yellow’ on card; most likely due to the acetate yellow overlay and the missing black color. — During the OS2 and OS3 releases, Topps took advantage of the runaway fad and released and licensed a ton of GPK merchandise. The Rappin’ RON image is only a handful of characters that found their way into the Topps 3-D Wall Plak release in 1986 (middle right) and folder #4 of the 1985 release from Bright Ideas, Inc. — The character is also found on card for the Flashback (2010) and Chrome (2014) releases, but the best card print can be located in the As American As Apple Pie (2016) set as part of the ‘Classic GPK Patriot’ stickers subset. |

BITS& BOBS: — Pound’s seventh concept for the OS2 set, titled ‘HELL’S ANGEL‘ (2-07), was a ‘biker’ gang gag that dealt with ‘drinking and driving’ to some degree. A lot of the humour for some of these images was the fact that the character was not of legal age—or a Kid that looked like or mimicked a grown-up. A beer guzzlin’ guy up on his fat hog. — In 1987, Topps started plans on a 2nd Series ‘mini’ set during the production of the 9th Series release — several acetate test cards with the code 4-490-05-03-7 appeared on eBay sold by the Topps Vault. Minus the ‘PEEL HERE‘ arrow, facing in the die-cut direction, this has a very ‘international’ release feel to it and could be a mock-up. This may have been a last ditch effort to create product prior to the lawsuit outcome ( bottom left). — In the sue-happy society and state of our nation, it’s not surprising that Topps censors more nowadays than they did back in the ’80s. But one can’t help and feel we’re going backwards; regressing, but I digress … the 2011 Flashback 3 set has the character with ‘BEER‘ removed from the can (bottom right), however, the 2012 GPK Abrams book and 2014 OS2 Chrome set (including the R1a and R1b card backs) both have the beer can back and intact. — One of four OS2 images with a skull and crossbones. |

BITS& BOBS: — The eighth gag Pound executed for the OS2 set titled ‘TONGUE-TIED‘ (2-08) is the first horizontally displayed character on card … that doesn’t look quite as nice in a 9-pocket sleeve. The concept remained the same from the tight pencil and color rough through to the final artwork. It is unknown what the thumbnail sketches looked like. — Due to the character’s position of being flattened down and more parallel to the horizon, the image doesn’t seem to have been picked as much for various products and releases. The character does show up on Imperial’s Pencil Case (and School Set) as line artwork with a different color combination, and as one of only six Tacky Snappers. — The 2014 Chrome OS2 set contained several chase cards including 20 rare C-names; 48c Tonguey TEDDY. |
