Comparison List
     The following list compares the card numbers and character names of the Australia and New Zealand The Garbage Gang 2nd Series to the United States Garbage Pail Kids.  The Australia and New Zealand The Garbage Gang 2nd Series card number and character name are listed first.  The United States Garbage Pail Kids Series is listed next.  The United States Garbage Pail Kids card number and character name are then listed.  This list will allow you to see what artwork was used for a certain card number, it will allow you to see how the series was arranged, and it will allow you to compare the names of the characters.  The Australia and New Zealand The Garbage Gang 2nd Series cards with an asterisk before the number are different than the United States Garbage Pail Kids 2nd Series.
     Excluding the packaging and card size, the Australia and New Zealand The Garbage Gang 2nd Series is almost the same as the United States Garbage Pail Kids 2nd Series.  The card variations in the Australia and New Zealand The Garbage Gang 2nd Series are completely different than the United States Garbage Pail Kids 2nd Series, but all of the character names and card numbers are exactly the same.
 
Additional Notes
     This series was separately released in Australia and New Zealand, but the cards are exactly the same.  However, the packaging was different.  The Australia The Garbage Gang 2nd Series has Jolted Joel / Live Mike on the pack wrapper, and the New Zealand The Garbage Gang 2nd Series has Adam Bomb / Blasted Billy on the pack wrapper.
 
     The card checklist has "2nd Series CHECKLIST" printed at the top.  The model for the checklist was probably the United States Garbage Pail Kids 2nd Series.  The title "Garbage Pail Kids" was removed, and "The Garbage Gang" was never inserted.
