     For the seventh installment of the U.K. Garbage Pail Kids, Topps Ireland took the success of the retired U.S. GPK series with the "new look" from 1987 and 1988 and four years later called them The Garbage Gang.  The Garbage Gang ’91 is identical to the U.S. 10^th series GPK except the numerical sequence starts back at number one.  The set was manufactured in 1990 and released in 1991.
