     The Basuritas and Monsters series was re-released throughout Argentina twice in 2001, one set contains the 'monsters' stickers with a tie-dye affect, the second cheaper re-produced set has the 'monsters' stickers with a solid red background, both unlike the yellow background in the original 2000 release.  The Industria Argentina Co. manufactured the sticker album cards. The set covers several cards of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th,  5th, 6th, and 8th U.S. series, not in any particular order plus some original artwork found in no other series. The cards measure slightly smaller than 2 1/4 X  2 3/4 inches (roughly 50 x 68-70 mm), and are non-die cut stickers. The Argentina 189 card sticker set is a direct reproduction of the Argentina 2000 set with a gloss finish, same red border, but no chase cards, but adding stickers 145-189 which were originally from the Chile Basuritas release and the 45 chase card set from the 2000 release added to the sticker images. The set is much duller and washed out, not as sharp as the Argentina 2000 set. The Stickers come 4 to a pack and are printed on plain white paper stock.
