I believe this was mentioned here briefly but I am going to start a thread for this set so we can have it permanently documented.
First of all, I did not make this discovery, I am just posting the info. It is a Norwegian Garbage Gang OS3 set. This is a new find by Foreign GPK Guru Henry Mora (GPKtillDeath). Our very own UG member LuCypher first noticed the unique Norwegian name of Melting Matilda.
The set is nearly the same as the Australia Garbage Gang 3 set but has some major differences.
First of all, card 101b is named Melting Matilda in the Norwegian set but Basking Robin in the Australian set. The checklists also reflect this name change. The top of the Norwegian checklist cards say "Garbage Gang" where the Australian checklists say "Garbage Pail Kids."
Also, to me, the card stock feels thicker on the Norwegian set. The backs are rougher and feel more papery. It's hard to explain.
I believe there are other back differences as well but haven't had the time to fully compare both sets.
Anyways, in my opinion, it is an amazing discovery and stuff like this doesn't happen very often anymore.
