The
United States Garbage Pail Kids All-New Series 5 was the first series
where Topps had the
Garbage Pail Kids artists were to reference the model sheet that John
Pound had painted for the style (see image above).
Luis
Diaz allowed me to post all of the final paintings he created for
the All-New Series 5 so that all the collectors could view them (see
images above). Some of the paintings have a lot more details in
them than what can be seen on the cards. I provided information
about these details in the Errors
and Card Details section. The card numbers and character names
are listed below.

John
Pound created the painting used for the All-New Series 5 cards 3a
Internal Morgan and 3b Demonic Danielle (see image above). The painting
was based on the winning entry of the Topps
Garbage Pail Kids website's Build-A-Kid contest. This was the
third Build-A-Kid contest held by Topps, but it was not mentioned by Topps
nor were the winners of the contest mentioned on the Topps Garbage Pail
Kids website. Les Kenyon won the contest with his creation "Gut
Less". Les was kind enough to take the time to contact me and
share the information about his experience with the contest. Les
also provided me with a scan of the letter that came with the painting
and a scan of the grand prize, which was the John Pound rendering of his
Build-A-Kid concept. There was no information on the back of cards
3a Internal Morgan and 3b Demonic Danielle to indicate that the painting
was based on the winning entry from the Build-A-Kid contest, but anyone
that had used the Build-A-Kid tool would easily be able tell that the
painting was based on something from the tool. The Build-A-Kid pin
codes Les had used were from his All-New
Series 3 cards. The pin codes unlocked more features on the
Build-A-Kid tool. The contest ended shortly before the All-New
Series 4 came out, but it took a while for Topps to distribute the
prizes. The other contest winners received All-New Series 4 boxes,
and Les won the painting and a couple of All-New Series 4 boxes.

Jay
Lynch has created hundreds of sketches for the All-New Series.
Only a small percentage of the concepts Jay comes up with are actually
used. Even if a sketch was created for one of the previous All-New
Series, it could end up being used for any of the upcoming series.
The ToppsVault
auctioned off some of these unpublished sketches (see images above).
Since the sketches were not going to be used, I decided to post them on
the website. In the listing below, I provided the item numbers,
character names, and any notations on the sketches.
