Upper Deck will market Gross Out Trading Cards, created and marketed in Australia by Kryptyx Entertainment, in the U.S. beginning in August.  Each $2.99 pack will contain six cards (of the 80-card set), including one Power Card that will allow players to Power Up their abilities in the Gross Out online game. 

 

The cards themselves will hit every gross topic, including 'pee, poop, snot, bug infestation, indigestion, and cold sores, to name a few.' 

 

The Australian trading cards were based on a comic series; Kryptyx has released Series 2 of the cards in Australia.  Kryptyx has also produced Gross Out toys and apparel. 

 

Upper Deck was promoting the launch with various gross promotions at San Diego Comic-Con, including a gross out contest, a model at the booth wearing gigantic pimple make-up and other gross effects, and a suitably potty-humored receptacle for the giveaway Gross Out promo cards.
