I remember these. My mom helped me collect most of the ones available. I remember having the Beatles, Genesis, Abba, as well as many others. I think they were around in the early 80's. I know we were collecting them when I was 5 so that had to be late 1980.

I came across these for the first time while surfing eBay. I now have collected the Beatles entire set and some others that have sentimental value. Pretty cool music memorabilia. The last one I'm looking for is Journey....

I remember a classmate whose dad worked for the company that made those records. He brought a minirecord player that played those mini records to show-and-tell. It actually worked.

I have some of these, but I chewed all the gum when I was 10 or 11. I also ordered the bigger Chu Bop Album that holds the collections. Have you ever seen one of these, I've never noticed anything about it on any websites.

I also worked for AGI, and still have a nearly complete set of the Beatles Chu-Bops still shrink-wrapped with the bubble gum inside! It is missing #5, Meet the Beatles, and #B2 White Album is no longer shrink wrapped and I obviously chewed the gum as it is gone as well. All are in great shape! I am currently getting ready to move and need to let some stuff go, so if anyone wants to buy this lovingly preserved set please contact me at 520-661-4265.

I collected the complete set - well just the albums the gum is missing in all of them. The only sets that are not in the larger LP is the rolling stones and The Beatles. To complete my collection, I was ordering directly from the company. I just remember toward the end that they were getting hard to purchase. It was such a great idea I couldn't understand why they would stop making them.
