If you thought trading cards were just for athletes or dragons, think again. In 2025, GAS Trading Cards has taken collectible culture to new heights — or maybe depths — with its provocative, chaotic, and sharply designed “Culture” Series. These cards don’t just celebrate public figures; they remix them into modern folklore.
We’re talking AI pranks (and hacks), Donald Trump and Elon Musk crossovers, U.S. Treasury penny relics, and a makeup job involving Cheetos dust. Yes, you read that correctly. Each card is sold individually, comes sealed in a hard plastic magnetic case, and most drops have already sold out — making them as scarce as they are absurd.
Trump & Elon in a Hacked Government Video? It’s on a Card Now
One of the most surreal moments in recent tech culture came when a hacker reportedly hijacked HUD (Housing and Urban Development) office screens to play an AI-generated fake (and frankly disgusting) video showing Donald Trump sucking Elon Musk’s toes.
GAS immortalized the moment with a glossy card that captures the bizarre intersection of political power, artificial intelligence, and internet trolling. This card doesn’t just commemorate a headline — it embodies how digital misinformation is now part of the cultural canon. Scary, isn’t it?
Trump’s Treasury Penny Relic – It’s a Real Coin
Another standout in the Culture Series is the Donald Trump U.S. Treasury Penny Relic Card — a Bronze Foil edition limited to just 100 copies. Each card contains an authentic U.S. penny sealed into the card and comes housed in a GAS-branded magnetic one-touch case.
It’s not just collectible — it’s a hybrid of real currency, cardboard satire, and speculative art. Like a tiny time capsule of how strange the world feels right now.
Cheetos Makeup & AI Mayhem – The JD Vance Prank Becomes Card Canon
One of the more surreal GAS Culture cards is based on a viral AI-generated prank video that depicted U.S. Senator JD Vance applying Donald Trump’s makeup — except instead of foundation, he’s using orange Cheetos snack-dust. You can see the video here on Reddit.
This isn’t just a meme turned card. It’s a statement on image-making, internet absurdity, and how pop culture eats itself — literally, in this case.
How GAS Does It Differently
Each of these cards is sold individually, not as part of a booster box or pack. These standalone drops are typically available for a few days or in limited print runs. Most are now sold out, making secondary market demand significant.
Other characteristics of these cards:
- Premium finishes (Cracked Ice, Foil, Rainbow, etc.)
- Short print runs (some as low as 25 or even 1-of-1)
- Sealed hard plastic cases with holographic branding
This isn’t mass-produced satire. It’s limited-run cultural commentary with serious production value — and no filter.
Why It Matters (Even If It Sounds Ridiculous)
These cards might feel outrageous, but they’re also telling. They reflect a moment in culture where public figures are memed, deepfaked, remixed, and repurposed in real time. GAS doesn’t take a side — it frames the absurdity, seals it in plastic, and dares you to collect the moment.
Whether you find them hilarious, terrifying, or just collectible, the GAS Culture Series captures something that no headline ever fully can: the emotional absurdity of now.
