## The Trash Pack Series 2 – Grubby #228 (Gross Ghost / Translucent Variant) RARE

Add a spooky, squirmy classic to your collection with this **The Trash Pack Series 2 Grubby #228 (Gross Ghost Variant)**. Originally a grimy member of the “Hard Rubbish” team, this **Rare Gross Ghost** edition transforms the segment-bodied creature into a haunting, **translucent phantom**. Released by Moose Toys during the iconic Series 2 era, this figure features the signature **semi-transparent** finish that defines this highly sought-after subset. This item is **pre-owned and sold loose**, making it a perfect addition for collectors looking to complete their Series 2 “Hard Rubbish” or “Ghost” themed display.

## The “Gross Ghost” Translucent Finish

What makes this variant a “Rare” find is its specialized material. Unlike the solid, opaque rubber of common Trashies, this Grubby is molded from a **special see-through plastic**. When held up to the light, the light passes through its segmented, worm-like body, giving it an ethereal, jelly-like glow. This distinct visual style highlights the “gross” sculpted details—like its bulging eyes and tiny, squiggly legs—making the character look truly spectral. This finish is a hallmark of the Rare Gross Ghost variants that vintage collectors prize.

## Character Profile: Grubby #228

**Grubby** is a hilarious and repulsive take on the larvae and worms found at the bottom of a trash can. The sculpt features a multi-segmented character with a wide, ghoulish mouth and large, frantic eyes. As character **#228** from the Hard Rubbish category, he represents the creepy crawlies that thrive in the filth. This Ghost variant reimagines him as a transparent specter, turning a common pest into a light, ghostly treasure that captures the iconic “gross-out” humor and charm of the Trash Pack franchise.

## A Vintage Series 2 Chase for Collectors

Experienced “Trashie” enthusiasts know that Series 2 Gross Ghosts are some of the most sought-after variants from the early Moose Toys years. Because these were produced in limited quantities as “Rare” chase figures, finding a **#228 Grubby** in this translucent condition is a rare treat. Whether you are reliving the nostalgia of the 2011-2012 era or hunting for specific “Ghost” variants to fill gaps in your set, this Grubby figure offers both rarity and classic character design.
