## The Trash Pack Series 2 – Nutso #182 (Gross Ghost / Translucent Variant) RARE
Go nuts for this spectral edition of a Trash Pack favorite: the **Series 2 Nutso #182 (Gross Ghost Variant)**. While the standard Nutso is a cracked, crazy member of the “Grubz” team, this **Rare Gross Ghost** edition transforms the food item into a haunting, **translucent phantom**. Released as part of the massive Series 2 expansion by Moose Toys, this figure features the signature **semi-transparent blue/clear** finish that defines this specific Gross Ghost subset. This item is **pre-owned and sold loose**, ready to haunt your snack shelf.
## The “Gross Ghost” Translucent Finish
The defining feature of this rare variant is its unique material. Unlike the solid, painted peanut-brown of the standard figure, this Nutso is molded from a special **see-through plastic**. When you hold him up to the light, the light passes through his shell and crazy eyes, giving him an ethereal, jelly-like appearance—like a spirit caught in a nutshell. This distinct visual style sets him apart from the opaque Trashies and makes the sculpted details of his cracked shell pop in a completely different way.
## Character Profile: Nutso #182
**Nutso** is a fan-favorite character from the **Grubz** (Food) category. The sculpt captures a peanut (or walnut) that has definitely gone bad, featuring a large crack in the skull/shell and a manic, “nutty” expression. As character **#182**, he is a core part of the Series 2 checklist. This Ghost variant reimagines him as a phantom foodstuff, a snack that has come back to haunt the pantry. It adds a spooky, fun twist to the gross-out theme.
## A Rare Series 2 Find
Collectors know that Series 2 introduced some of the most sought-after variants. The Gross Ghost variants were considered **Rare** chase figures, often harder to find than the common solid-colored Trashies. Finding a specific character like Nutso in this specific translucent finish is a challenge for completionists. It stands out beautifully when displayed alongside the solid versions, showing the versatility of the mold.
## Squishy and Durable
Despite his ghostly appearance, Nutso retains the signature tactile fun of The Trash Pack. Made from durable, squishy rubber, he is satisfying to handle, stack, and launch. The figure features the standard hollow base, making him compatible with pencil tops and all Trash Pack playset pegs. Whether you display him in the *Garbage Truck* or line him up with other Grubz, he is built to last and looks great backlit on a shelf.
## Pre-Owned Condition Note
This figure is listed as **Used**, meaning it has been removed from its original packaging and is sold **loose**. We have carefully inspected it to ensure the translucent rubber is clean and free from major ink stains or damage. As a vintage item, there may be extremely minor signs of handling, but the unique “ghostly” transparency is fully intact. We provide “In Kind” photos so you can examine the specific shade and clarity of this rare nut.
## Don’t Let Him Crack Under Pressure
Translucent variants are elusive—they appear in the market and vanish just as quickly. Whether you are building a full “Grubz” team or a specialized “Gross Ghosts” display, the **Nutso #182** is a critical addition. Grab this rare collectible before it disappears!
