  • Need help with fuzzy memory

    Hi,

    Some of these details may be sketchy at best, but I'm definitley not mad, and I'm not thinking about Garbage Pail Kids.

    Back when I was in Primary School, between 1985 and 1989, we used to collect and trade either stickers or cards. They were probably cards, although I may just not have been allowed the stickerbook. They probably came with bubblegum. I'm fairly sure there was only one or two series, I think the cards went upto #100. They were definitely after the first GarbagePail kids series, probably 5 in a pack.

    As far as I can remember, they were cartoon pictures of monsters,ghouls,zombies and skeletons, they had cool names and they were all playing a different sport (mabye all different athletic events). There was a javelin, a shot-put, high jump etc.

    Anyone any clues?

        This is a very old post but I found it on Google and I might have the answer :P The OP might get a notification for it so it might be worth answering. If not, don't bite my head off because I registered on the forum just to answer.

        I have the full set of Team Spirits. I found them in an auction ages ago. I have scans of them all if you like. There was a preceding set of 18, with some of the same characters and those werern't sports based.

        SET 1: ( http://www.monsterwax.com/monsteroly2.jpg , http://www.monsterwax.com/monsteroly3.jpg )

        1 The Evil Troll
        2 The Blob
        3 The Bonesucker
        4 Mr. Hyde
        5 The Werewolf
        6 The Zombie
        7 The Bride of Dracula
        8 Slimeball
        9 The Phantom of the Opera
        10 The Headless Ghost
        11 Creature from the Pit
        12 Four Eyes
        13 Frank N. Steins Monster
        14 King Tut
        15 Count Vlad
        16 Quasimodo
        17 Egor
        18 Attila The Hun

        Can't be bothered to list the other set 'cos there's 40. The javelin thrower was Bride of Dracula, I think. A few more examples are Fungus the Soccar player... Rock the Surfer... Blob the boxer... Quasimodo the Hammer-Thrower... Four-Eyes the Discus thrower...

        Hope this 6 year old question gets answered :P

            There's very little out there about these cards - other than the links already posted - but Murray Cards have the Team Spirits set: http://www.murraycards.com/catalogue...Search=spirits

            The same company also produced Prehistorigum, which Murray Cards stock.

            Does anyone know where to get hold of the Team Spirits follow-up, I think it was called Holiday Spirits? I have a complete set but used to carry them around with me everywhere when I was a nine-year-old so they're a little worse for wear!
