I just learned recently that Mattel issues a collection of 8 Halloween themed Hot Wheels every year!
I had no idea! I personally have a collection of Hot Wheels Monster Trucks, so I was interested.
And ended up just buying one of them
a 1949 Ford F1 pickup with skull wheels and a jack-o-lantern on the door.
So I got my first Halloween Monster truck in 2015.
Gravedigger, of course!
Here he is in the everyday look
In 2016, it was Zombie - I was really excited about this one, since I love the real truck.
The jack-o-lantern was a perfect way to Halloween-ify a zombie!
Everyday (except the real truck has arms that wave around)
(Ford Field, February 2015)
2017 was El Toro Loco.
I'm really not as impressed with this one - they tried to go with the western desert steer skull look and it's just meh.
Everyday El Toro Loco
I wonder what they'll come out with for 2018? They could do one of the Monster Mutt trucks as a werewolf - that would be cool. I would have expected that before El Toro Loco.
And the bonus truck Arachnaphobia.
OH COME ON!!!!
I had no idea, either! How cool is that???
