2018 Halloween Hot Wheels - Oogie & Finklestein

Welcome back to Halloween Hot Wheels Wednesday! 
We've got a wicked pair for you today.

First up, Mr. Oogie Boogie man!


Oogie's ride of choice is a Super Van, first released in 1975. This same model was released in the 80s with an A-Team paint job.


The windows are tinted a nice shade of "bug guts" green. You can see he's rolled a 7 on this side and on the other is, of course, an 11.


Check out the tiny skulls in between the card suits. For some reason, the diamonds and spades have swapped colors.

The second of our dastardly duo is none other than the bad Doctor Finklestein. I wonder what he got his doctorate in?


He's cruisin' in the Midnight Otto which is relatively young by Hot Wheels standards having debuted in 2002.


This one is just alright for me. I like the model of the car but I don't think it does much to capture his personality.


Unlike Sally, I do think this one benefits from having the character image on the roof for a little something extra.

    Wow! I didn't even know Hot Wheels made these! I definitely have to pick up Oogie Boogie! He's one of my favorites. Any other Nightmare cars that you know of? Where did you find them? I! Must! Know!!

    1. For what eBay tells me, these are exclusive to Kroger stores. There are 8 in the series and I'm showing off 2 every Wednesday. If you go back a week you'll see Jack and Sally.
