In South America during the mid-1990's, the Coca-Cola soft drink company released this series (along with figures from the Things series) that could be purchased by writing down a code found under the bottle cap or lid. They were known as Geloucos (Brazil) and Hielocos (Mexico). These figures were the same as regular Gogo's, but they could only be found in colors such as Jellies, Glowies and Sparkles. They also bear Coca-Cola stamps on their backs instead of Magic Box stamps.

A special version of the original series, but every character in the pack glows in the dark. These packs were promotional items for a local newspaper in Cleveland, Ohio during the height of the Crazy Bones "Craze" sometime in the late 1990s. These are extremely rare, and there may have only been a few hundred packs ever made, if not less. The outer package is different from other series as this package is made of thick paper and not foil. The glow in the dark Gogo's would also appear in common packs too but not very rarely.
