## The Trash Pack Series 1 – Smelly Fish (Red Variant) RARE Mini Figure

Reel in a rotten catch with this **The Trash Pack Series 1 Smelly Fish Figure**. This listing features the highly sought-after **Red Variant** of the classic character (often numbered **#043**). As part of the original Series 1 launch by Moose Toys in 2011, this figure is a vintage piece of “gross-out” history. While the blue or green versions might be more common, the **Red Smelly Fish** is considered a **Rare** find by many collectors looking to complete their color spectrums. This item is **pre-owned and sold loose**, ready to be the stinky star of your Trash Town collection.

## The Rare Red Variant

In the Trash Pack universe, collecting isn’t just about getting every character; it’s about getting every color. The **Red Variant** of Smelly Fish offers a vibrant, distinct look that stands out against the typical green and grey tones of the dumpster. In Series 1, specific colorways were often harder to find than others, making this red version a true “Chase” piece for completionists. The bright red rubber highlights the gross details of the fish’s scales and bones, making it one of the most visually striking figures in the set.

## Character Profile: Smelly Fish #043

**Smelly Fish** is a core member of the **Bin Critters** team. The sculpt depicts a decomposing fish skeleton with bulging eyes and a goofy expression, perfectly capturing the humor that made The Trash Pack a global phenomenon. It’s the quintessential “rotten seafood” toy. As a Series 1 character, Smelly Fish helped define the aesthetic of the entire brand, paving the way for future aquatic trashies.

## Series 1: The Golden Era

There is nothing quite like the original. **Series 1** figures are prized for their historical value and their unique material feel. Released over a decade ago, these are the toys that started the craze. Finding a specific character in a specific rare color like Red in good condition is becoming a real challenge. Most of these were lost in playgrounds or vacuumed up years ago. Owning this figure is like owning a preserved fossil from the golden age of collectible mini figures.

## Squishy, Gross, and Fun

True to form, this Smelly Fish figure is made from the signature squishy, soft rubber that Trash Pack fans love. It has a satisfying tactile feel—soft enough to squish but durable enough to last. It features the standard hole in the bottom, allowing it to be placed on pencil tops (perfect for scaring classmates) or displayed on the pegs of Trash Pack playsets. Whether you are using it for play or display, it delivers that authentic Trashie experience.
