totally tubular!

These cards are TOTALLY RAD. Bright neon colours, gloss cards with bodacious 80s/90s art. Along the much used Garbage Pail Kids idea of alliteratively named characters, this time on the theme of Rad Dudes. (...) On the reverse some cards are poster cards which when put together will make up a giant rad dude card but the greatest cards have transcribed RAD DUDES conversations relating to the card, like discussing how gnarly Knee Board Nick is, or the arm wrestling trash talk "Dude, you're toast" (except they put "your" instead of "you're") and the reply "O'contrair Wayne, get ready to bite the big one Dude." Please note Dude is spelled with a capital D. (wonderleague)



this is basically the Valley Girl of trading cards. tripendicular, ya know? slap those wrist bracelets on and hit the arcade, becky. so crank up the Agent Orange 'cause that techno rock you guys listen to is gutless! and if it ain't stiff, it ain't worth a fuck! but all I really wanna do is,



skate, for sure, like totally!

**totes radical background art: all me.
