2012 Press Pass Yo Gabba Gabba

I've never actually seen an episode of Yo Gabba Gabba but it's something I feel like I should know about culturally. From what I've gathered the show is universally loved by people my age who have young children and I imagine that I'll be watching them along with a bundle of joy someday myself. So let's get the training started!

My first card is of Mr. Lizard one of the side characters from the show...for each of these cards I've scanned the front and back to give you an idea of what they look like.

#37 Mr. Lizard

My sticker card is of Brobee who is the youngest of the gabba monsters and is the drummer in the band. Looking at the card I didn't even realize that it was a sticker until flipping it over.

#15 Brobee!

The set also includes cards devoted to some of the songs from the show. This one's for the show's theme song:

#64 Yo Gabba Gabba!

Next we have a Story Time Book card that doesn't make too much sense out of context with the rest of the cards in the set.

#90 The Story Time Book

And last but not least we have another song card...this time for "I Love Bugs":

#68 "I Love Bugs"

2012 Press Pass Yo Gabba Gabba

Greetings...

So the wifey goes to Target to get some things and also picked up my first 2012 Topps cards in the form of a blaster box.  She also got a couple of these packs for the boys, supposedly as a reward (the older one is helping the younger one with potty training..they're 4 and 2 as of this posting).

Even though I declared that this show cannot be watched in my presence, I guess I'm not in their presence a whole lot, because they sure were excited when the wifey showed these to them:


I'd insert a one-liner here, but this is a family site.

To show them how I take care of my cards, I opened both packs for them and showed them the cards one at a time.  They then wanted to take the cards to bed with them.  I told them no and how they should take care of them, knowing full well that they'd be tossed about the next day.  I then realized that these things actually were their first experience with trading cards, so since no one posted this pack on the site yet (no way!!!), I scanned one of the packs for you all to enjoy.

I remember the wrapper saying there were 90 cards in the set, 5 cards per pack.  There were also stickers and puzzle cards.  Here's what we got:

#22 - Plex!
#41 - Muno's Family
#78 - Sticker
#65 - "Party In My Tummy"
#26 - D.J. Lance Rock!

Here are the backs in case anyone's interested:



They did get one thing right...stickers are indeed awesome.



That's the pack.  When I first started contributing to the site, I would have never thought I would be posting my children's packs.  Oh well, if they follow in my footsteps and start collecting, I can always bring up this post whenever they start getting too full of themselves and say, "Yes, you actually LIKED these cards!"

Something better next time...thanks for reading!
