 This shocked me. Felt quite weird seeing a passport used as packaging! Made it extra special giving the item inside, but also felt wrong at the same time. Peru - always makes itself sure their is an air of dodgyness to GPK foreign collecting. Turned out its out of date by 25 years so all good. Phew! |

 Great to get a few 2nd series singles with backs (love that back design!), but not as good as this....(only in my foreign rarity GPK loving opinion of course).... |

 A Peru "The Garbage" 2nd series WRAPPER!!!! I've never seen this item, ever, so I'm guessing a new to 'exist' item in this community? To a foreign GPK completest of packs and albums like myself, this is amazing. I only know of the orange 1st series Fryin Brian wrapper that existed in that one photo, so to uncover this feels soooo good, as it lets me fill a gap I didn't even know I could complete. This find is like a dirty rotten, down and out, Peruvian cousin of the clean official power of the BK sealed pack, but equally rare at this point in time in my collecting experience. Enjoy all you foreign collectors. Any thoughts, let me know |

Great find! I have around 30 cards from the second series and I can assure they are very very rare to find. And I love the wrapper! |

Just some singles that came with the deal. Wow you really delivered!!! I can't believe they repainted Rose! She seems much happier  Did they paint on a buck tooth? And what a rename!! Destruzado! Sounds like a lucha libre villain. Very epic find.  |

Most Likely the barcode is a sticker?and is put on at the convenient Store that used to sell them. The pack without is most Likely from the production company before it hit the shelves Looking back at the barcode it does appear to be a sticker. If I'm not mistaken the barcode sticker has a price of ¥100 while on the pack in the yellow square the price is ¥150. Discounted Bukimi Kun packs! ;-)  |

  Complete BEURK Les Crados board game. Always wanted one when I first got the hook of foreign collecting. What a weird pukey burpy name BEUUURKKKK! Strange cool game, and strange interesting to note that the room tile numbering goes from 21 in top left bedroom, to 30 in the kitchen, and so misses 22-29 weirdly on the squares. |

I presented this certificate award to myself for my contribution to the foreign GPK community. It was a lovely ceremony, family,friends you know..
(Cool to have an OS 1 character as well)
Its laminated like the Israel room plaque. |

and now for my last item that I have purchased in my collection before completing a custom project of mine. I think its the perfect item for my last item...... ......as its the first ever, original, ideas and layout sketch of the first ever official GPK character, Nasty Nick, by John Pound himself. I LOVE that this he probably sat down with a coffee at his desk in his studio and begun sketching the first ever GPK character for the 1st series way back when, 31 years ago. The number #1 of the number #1, of the number #1.  |
