     The Basuritas and Monsters series was released throughout Argentina in 2000.  The Industria Argentina Co. manufactured the sticker album cards. The set covers several cards and images of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th, and 14th U.S. series, not in any particular order plus some original artwork found in no other series besides the re-releases. The cards measure 2 1/4 X  2 3/4 inches (roughly 53 x 70 mm), and are non-die cut stickers. The Argentina 144 card sticker set is a direct reproduction of the Chile cards and have a great gloss finish with a new red border and two chase sets: a trading card set of 45 and a 'hot stamped hologram' card set of 36, both measuring 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 (roughly 60 x 83 mm). Stickers come 4 to a pack and are printed on white paper stock with 'Arconvert - Adhoc' writing on back.
