The series also contains a 'CHASE' set that is actually part of the numerical base set which is a 'POG' card that holds two pogs — an insert card not found in any other international release — that measures 2 x 3 1/2 inches, roughly 50 x 90 mm, and puch out of the card. Stickers come 5 to a pack and are printed on plain white paper stock, the cards can be found with a slight gloss back or a dull, rough back. To put the release date into perspective, the All-New Series 1 GPK set, a re-working of the unpublished Original Series 16 set, was being planned and released in 2003 within the U.S around this time.

1. The Basuritas 2 cards and pogs have a yellow Header with the logo in a red font color, very reminiscent of the U.S. 1st Series card 18a Cranky FRANKIE and 18b Bad BRAD; card example #85 ROCO Meclavos.

2. The set contains BUSCADO stickers, a translation of the U.S. 3rd and 4th Series 'WANTED' backs, randomly placed throughout the set, much like the original 1st and 2nd Series Basuritas sets, but the 2000 and 2001 releases have them all clumped together.

3. The series contains special Pog Cards numbered as part of the numerical set, rather than a separate chase card set. The pog cards are a new conception for the Argentina sets and cannot be found in any other international release; the circular character cut-outs 'pop-out' of the heavier card stock. The pogs can be found either printed on an off-white card stock or a darker, tanned card stock.

4. The entire set contains cards with red Nameplates that have white font lettering; the only exception is card #3 NAHUEL Electrocutado that has a yellow nameplate with black font lettering.
