About 2026 Garbage Pail Kids Halloween

2026 Topps Garbage Pail Kids Halloween overview, key cards and what collectors chase

Halloween characters, alternate names and artist signatures

2026 Topps Garbage Pail Kids Halloween gives familiar characters a seasonal makeover, with alternate names, horror-inspired inserts and artist-signed cards. Topps announces online availability on October 22, 2026 at noon Eastern / 16:00 UTC. Physical distribution has not yet been verified.

What's in the checklist

  • Base: 50 cards, numbered 1A–25A and 1B–25B, with puzzle and completed-puzzle backs.
  • Parallels: the base checklist lists Gold Slime /50, Orange Slime /25, Black Slime /10, Red Slime /5 and Foil Fractor /1.
  • Inserts and variations: 25 C Names, 10 Scream Queens and 10 Art Variations are individually numbered. Wrappers and their Rainbow Foil parallel are described as 25 subjects without an itemized roster.
  • Autographs: 10 numbered cards pair characters with five artists. A separate list names sketch artists; it does not enumerate individual sketch cards.

Notable subjects

Dead Ted, Adam Bomb, Nasty Nick, Ghastly Ashley and Bony Joanie appear in the numbered checklist. Artist autographs include Joe Simko, Neil Camera, David Gross, Smokin Joe and Brent Engstrom. Scream Queens uses parody character names, not a celebrity autograph roster.

Sketch artists

These 53 names are the sketch-artist list. They are not extra numbered cards, and the list does not say how many sketches each artist made.

Single-box odds

All 12 ratios use the odds sheet's SINGLE BOX column. The checklist calls the base parallels Slime; the odds sheet calls them Foil. Gold Slime is Gold Foil, 1:7. Orange Slime is Orange Foil, 1:15. Black Slime is Black Foil, 1:37. Red Slime is Red Foil, 1:74. Foil Fractor is FoilFractor, 1:360. Wrapper Rainbow Foil is 1:11. Sketch cards are 1:12. C Names are 1:3. Scream Queens are 1:9. Artwork variations are 1:12. Artist autographs are 1:18. Final Artwork Redemption appears only in the odds, at 1:692, and has no numbered card. The checklist's first-page disclaimer is clipped; the odds PDF says the figures reflect the intended configuration at the time of production and that actual contents and odds may vary.

Grading considerations

Confirm the section, A/B/C suffix, card back and any serial number before identifying a card. Review centering, corners, edges and both surfaces; foil finishes need inspection under varied light. A listing or stated rarity does not predict a grade or value.
