Basically they were released in 1989 at the very end of the popularity of garbage pail kids. They were sold in spensors gift shops. Pound painted 4 cassette tapes. 1 being the garbage pail kids. Here's some more in for from pound. Www.Poundart.com/art/cassettes/cassettes.htmlThey were very small, like the size of a UK card (or smaller) |

Just to provide a few more informational shots of the cassettes: This shows the differences in the Dutch and US versions pretty clearly:  The front of the US version has the Net Weight in Ounces.  The US version has the Topps logo, not the company that imported it in Holland.  The backs are also different, with the US version having a "Barf Boys" description. Travis. |
