Just Gross!

 


How does that grab ya? 

I was rummaging through some unsorted boxes in the basement and came across two packs of this stuff.


What is this you ask? 
It is 2006 Upper Deck & Kryptyx Gross Out. It is an 80 card base set and 5 Power Cards.


Great stuff ain't it. Here are backs of the base cards and Power Card,


North American pack pictured below. 


There was an Australian version of this product as well. Kryptyx issued it without partnership with Upper Deck.

That checklist is 60 cards and in different order, and the insert set is Scratch n Sniff cards. That is way more fun than the Power Cards we got!

COMC has both sets listed as 2006 and has the cards mixed together. TCDB has the Australian set as 2005. 

If you are going to pounce on these as I know you will, check the backs of the base cards, the Aussie set does not have an UD Entertainment logo. Here is the back of the one I bought for my type collection. No logo in the top left corner. 


 One more for good measure!


Thanks for reading!



A collector since my early years. Sometimes a collector without focus. If it piques my interest I may collect it.

    That's....an interesting set, to say the least. I wonder what the inspiration for these was.

    Somewhere there is an artist with these cards on his resume and portfolio...

Buying lots on TCDB - Part 1

Image
One of my favorite approaches for growing the card collection is through bulk buys. Not from one of the usual places mind you, but through TCDB. What?!  Occasionally members will take to posting on the forum that for whatever reason they have become motivated sellers. This is good for me as I have an extensive wantlist set up in the system. With a few clicks away we go and I await the lot price.  I reckon that in the past three years I have made over 100 purchases there. From a handful of cards to a 5300 card buy. All from trusted and reputable members so it really takes the worry of being swindled out of it.  Here is the first one of these deals of 2025, from member  80s90sHoopHead  ,120 cards all from my wantlist. All killer, no filler! I've broken this into two posts as there is so much good stuff to show. We'll go oldest to more recent baseball in this first part.      A ton of empty slots in the Blue Jay binders getting filled.  The Cruz...

Sunday chores Chronicled

Image
A quick Sunday post with nothing of real substance because its been a day of house repairs around here -plumbing and caulking.  How do two sinks in different rooms develop issues at the same time? Demons...  My, er, reward was a clearance pack of 2021 Panini Chronicles Football. Timely I reckon for week 18.  The pack wrapper had a huge ugly clearance sticker on it, so no picture.   Here are the base cards, The base cards are quite decent. Nice layout and good card stock. Here are the inserts, Uninspiring. Enjoy the games today!!

An overdue update

Image
 Spring has finally sprung in our neck of the woods, though there is still snow/ice on the ground deep in the forest. The to-do list around here is endless but rather satisfying. Nothing better than putting winter gear away.  The volatile economy has kept my card purchases on the lean side to be sure and even if I wanted to drop some coin to rip some packs new retail product around here is non-existent. The same tired Hoops and Score football still takes up most of the shelf space.  Nonetheless, a few good things were added to the collection in the last couple of weeks. Knocking out sets on the cheap is still satisfying.  The 1992 Dart FernGully set is complete. Quite a cast of voices in this film.  Info here I needed to add something to the Sportlots order, and the Moreland was the only card I could find. The 2016 A&G set build is nearing the end, ten to go, and only three of them are short prints. The 2020 short print of The Chicken, from a TCDB purchase, ...
