2025 Topps Garbage Pail Kids Media Menace Checklist

Ten topical spoofs of 2025's most talked-about moments, two new Garbage Pail Kids a day for five days

2025 Garbage Pail Kids Media Menace is a Topps.com print-on-demand release of single cards sold in December 2025. Each of the ten subjects has an A name and a short-printed B name. This page lists 20 cards: 1A-10A and 1B-10B. Topps's own page confirms 6A Cap' N KATY, 6B Putrid PERRY and the A/B structure; the other names come from a specialist transcription of Topps's listings, so the roster is secondary rather than manufacturer-complete.

What's in the checklist

• Base: ten A-name cards, 1A-10A
• Parallels: Gold Foil /25, which Topps states for A-name subjects only. There is no B-name gold
• Inserts: B Name Short Prints 1B-10B, the alternate names for each subject
• Variations and autographs: none listed; no autograph roster is established

Notable subjects

Six SEVERIN (1A), Robbin Museum (2A), Cap' N KATY (6A), Sticky NICKI (7A), Cheesy CHAD (9A) and Nuclear NEO (10A), each spoofing a 2025 news or internet moment.

Snapshot

This is a source-limited, dated snapshot as of 9 October 2026. It is not a complete master checklist. Bulk order quantities and print-run figures are not editions or serial numbers. Store dates are not set as a release date.

Grading considerations

Identify each card by year, set name, number and suffix: the A name and the B short print share a number but are different cards. Match the printed name, since alternate names on similar art are different cards, and separate the name from the finish. A Gold Foil card should be an A name with a /25 serial matching the gold finish. Check corners, edges and centering on both sides, and inspect foil and surfaces under angled light for scratches, print lines and dents.
