MY NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK
Trading Card Collection

So you decided to join me as I present my incomplete collection of New Kids On The Block trading cards. Warning: If you loved New Kids On The Block, you will LOVE these cards. On the other hand, if you hated New Kids On The Block you will REALLY LOVE these cards. I'm talking major flashback to 1989, people. The horror...the horror.

Anyway, each photo shows the card's face plus the captions on the back. Okay, let's begin....

First off, you must know that NKOTB was inspirational in more ways than one. Don't believe me? Read it and weep!
Picture
NKOTB members were also the masters of posing.
 (Seriously, WHAT is going on here?)
Picture
They were also very street. That hat Joey's wearing? So gangsta.
Picture
Back then some guys grew these little rat tail-like things that were utterly ridiculous...I mean cute, really cute.
Picture
But on to the cast of characters. That's right, 'CAST OF CHARACTERS.' Boy bands are known to have a formula, with each member playing a distinct role.

                           First there was Donnie Wahlberg, the 'bad boy'...
Picture
                                  ...then Jordan Knight, 'the dreamboat'....
Picture
                                 ...Danny Wood, 'the muscle' of the group....
(Note: Sometimes this character is swapped out for 'the prankster' or some other odd ball type to make the group unique.).....
Picture
...the cute 'boy nex't door,' Joe McIntyre...
Picture
...and finally Jonathan Knight, 'the one who later comes out as gay.' 
Picture
So there's the basic run down. From here on out, it's just cards, cards, CARDS! As a bonus, I'm including my own idiotic commentary.  You can thank/curse me later.
                   --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Believe it or not, these are two different cards. Laziness or love of polka dots? Hmmm...

Is it just me or does Joe look like he's channeling George Michael
from his Wham days?

Wake me up before you go go, Georgie!
Okay, I get that Donnie was the bad boy of the bunch and wearing black goes with the territory, but it looks like he's wearing black silk pajamas and that's creeping me out a little bit. These cards were made for teeny boppers, people!
Picture
Looking at the photos below, I cannot believe everyone thought that
Jordan Knight was the hot one.

Picture
                                         Ummm...scratch what I just said.
Picture
   Help me out here. Who should I pair this photo of Jonathan with...
Picture
          Danny or Joey? (Either way, Joey looks WAY too excited.)
