    Hey guys, The newest fan set was just released this weekend and almost half of them are GONE! Just wanted to make sure my UG family got a shot at getting one. Everything is cool until they sell out and people get their feelings hurt, only 100 sets were made! The set is called UDOTI UDOLI, translates to “Garbage Dolls” in Zulu. The set is a hypothetical South African, more specifically Zulu, set of 30 trading cards. Doll culture is a thing in South Africa and local craftsmen make dolls out of anything and everything they can find, including recyclables –just look up Udoti Udoli online! This set is stunning, from what I can tell from pics, they are wrapped in custom wrappers made by the same company that wrapped GPK Flashbacks 1, 2, and 3, and the UG Space Fan Set 5 –SAME MATTE WRAPPERS, SAME EVERYTHING, they even come with gum, but no one I know has tasted it yet. Wrapper art features Larry Lips, and he looks killer AF. Wrapped sets (6 packs) come with a numbered bonus card, 1-100. Jumbos are available too, and feature a cool Ada Bomb OS-style header card. Really like that black background on the header, really pops! And… well… the cards, they are the real treasure… each card comes with a C-style name, funny and context-appropriate. You can read the checklist and see the names! Hardcore backs, featuring collecting jokes, crazy mash-ups, and pictures of half-naked African women, sounds classy huh? No, I haven’t seen the cards yet, maybe a collector who bought early could post pics? I’m not selling these, but if you want more info you can PM me. ![]()

Can we keep these off of Instagram please and not advertise to the world 😉 Very excited about this. Unfortunately I do not open stuff. So they will stay sealed and I’ll have to enjoy pics from other collectors. Thank you for this. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wait, the wrappers don't say gum on them, maybe these don't come with gum like the Space set did? Anyone know? I left all my Space packs sealed, never tasted the gum.

OMG you HAVE to buy this set!!!! Its amazing!!! I laughed my ass off. So much creativity, really blown away. Been a really long time since I got so much entertainment from a "GPK" product. Get it while the warlords are still printing them up. Show us a few cards while we wait for them to arrive.

29 now would way rather spend money on these rather than the weak-azz topps "classics" release And what is classic about them? I don't get the name. Just call it BNS4. It's an amazing price though. $100 for 40 cards and a "sketch" by a GPK "artist." If you count some artist that has nothing to do with GPK a GPK artist then I guess. I can't wait to see some of these sketches. Hey at least it's only $2.50 a card instead of the normal $10 per card by Flopps.

Or idk just throw $100 in the garbage. Or bet $100 on the buffal bills beating the fast paced high scoring Atlanta Falcons. It’s a sure lose But it more worth it

I've never bought one, never pulled one, and never plan to. Sketch market has taken a dive lately too. I'll save my $ for foreign items 🌎

This looks like an incredibly good fan set! I’d love to see more pictures if anyone who bought a set is willing to share some.

This seems to be a low production set much like Fan Set 1 and 2 (Good luck finding those now a days). Get them while you can people.

I got the set in the mail today. It's incredible. Definitely has the old school fan set feel to it. It feels like it is basically fan set 7, but without all of the UG logos. Mad props to the creators. Here are pics of the fronts and backs. Wrappers and stuff are in the first post. The pics don't show all of the great details, so make sure to grab a set while they last.
