RetroSmash - Episode 2: Garbage Pail Kids

[moshmind212]

I got the flashback reprint of Vile Kyle, and they took out the "beer" sign of the can of beer. I could even see some of the evidence that it was there, 'cause it had a faded part of the b.

Actually, after Topps gave in to Coleco, the artwork wasn't as appealing, and the later series of the original 80's cards lost it's appeal for me, as well as the "All New Series" and the flashback cards.

They'll never be the same...

Great episode again, Marty!

I never followed the whole "Garbage Pail Kids" thing, so this was quite informative as well as entertaining.

I did love "Wacky Packages" as a kid in the '70's, though, so I'm glad you mentioned them in this video. Heck, you could have done a whole video just on Wacky Packages and I'd have been thrilled!

Keep on truckin'! And keep these videos coming. I'm curious as to what else you're going to cover.

Thanks Rob and everyone else! The comments have been great. Episode 3 is in the writing stage right now and hopefully will be finished in the beginning of April. That's the goal anyway. Tell everyone you know about the show, I really want to boost its popularity.

Can't wait for the next episode, bro!

Amazing work, Marty! You really are a one man party! :)

I had some of the cards growing up. They definitely had a macabre value, and it was nice to see a company treating kids seriously (rather than trying to sugarcoat everything). I'm surprised that Topps didn't take more flak from politicians and parents, though.
