Getting us over the finish line for 2026 is Hot Wheels High.
Hold on!
Hot Wheels High screamed on the scene in 2013 and this is the 17th version. Not surprisingly, a couple of the variations look like school buses. One of the 2019 releases was a rock n' roll tour bus with the same skull wheels.
The original card back describes this as a twin turbine, jet powered bus, which I guess would be an improvement because speed is not usually what you expect when boarding a bus. I can picture this rocketing through a haunted forest while a tour guide rapidly calls out things outside.
I'm torn between this one and the
Baja Hauler
as my favorite for this year. I think the Hauler edges ahead just a bit with
its pumpkin artwork but I also really like the idea of a haunted tour bus. Maybe it tours haunted places, maybe the bus is actually haunted? Maybe both?
If you enjoy the little factoids in these posts, drive on over to the Hot Wheels Wiki, which is where I get all my info.
Hitch a ride with the ghostly gentleman to see the participating Countdown to
Halloween blogs.
