2026 Topps Garbage Pail Kids Halloween

About one hit a pack, 53 sketch artists, ten artist autos and a run small enough that every numbered parallel points to the same number of packs. Which kids carry the chase, and what Topps' odds really say.

How we got these

Odds

“1 in 12 packs” is an average. It means you’d expect one in 12 packs, not that the 12th pack is due.

Topps’ sheet has one column, headed “single box”, and hasn’t said how many packs a box holds. We read the odds as per pack, because that’s the only reading where the hits add up to one a pack, the same build as Topps’ 2026 Valentine’s Day box. Box odds will go up once Topps posts the box size.

The run size is our math, not a Topps number: copies of each numbered slime color (50 kids times the serial) times its pack odds. All five colors land between 17,500 and 18,750 packs.

Sales

No Sales section yet. The product releases October 22. We’ll add raw eBay sold medians once singles start selling.

About this release

GPK Halloween is a Topps online exclusive that drops October 22. Fifty base kids, 25 C Names, five Scream Queens pairs, ten art variations, ten artist autographs and sketch cards from 53 artists. Add up Topps’ odds and you get almost exactly one hit in every pack.

The sheet also tells you how big the run is. Every slime color, from Gold /50 down to the FoilFractor 1/1, works out to roughly 18,000 packs. That puts about 1,000 artist autos and 1,500 sketches in the whole product, and only about 26 original artwork redemptions.
