Countdown to Halloween 2014 Day 18: Sunkist Mini Flame Monster Can

I found the Sunkist mini flame monster can along with the 7Up mini Gillman monster can at the local Dillons store. It has one eye and a big mouth full of sharp teeth:

The flame monster is holding the Sunkist logo between its hands and the sun looks like it is bursting from its chest:

Countdown to Halloween 2014 Day 17: 7Up Mini Gillman Can

I finally found the 7Up mini Gillman can at the local Dillons store. I call him Gillman but I could have easily called him finhead or fishhooklip. One side has him doing the low brow snarl and showing plenty of sharp teeth:

While another side shows the logo between his sharp talons:

Countdown to Halloween 2014 Day 15: Bench Warmer 2010 Halloween Trading Cards

Can you guess what day it is? Not only are in the middle of the Countdown to Halloween 2014 but today is also Women Wednesday. As a special treat, here are the Halloween trading cards that Bench Warmer released in 2010 featuring more hot ladies wearing skimpy costumes.

First up is Alicia Arden wearing a Juicy Burgers waitress uniform:

Next is April Scott dressed as a sexy kitten:

My favorite has to be Audney Dalsoglio wearing Wonder Woman's costume:

Here's Bambi Lashell in a yellow and black skirt (she needs the pointy hat to complete the witch look):

Chanel Ryan is wearing a sexy prisoner costume:

I think Crystal Colar is trying to invoke the spirit of Rainbow Brite:

Julianna Prada opted for a simple bikini with her butterfly wings:

Mary Riley won't be battling any fires in her very skimpy firewoman costume that is mostly a bikini top and a barely there g-string:

Nikki Zeno looking good in her pirate costume:

I have no clue to what Renee Stone i trying to be here (she gets the worst costume award):

Finally, Tiffany Toth is wearing her German tavern waitress costume:

Countdown to Halloween 2014 Day 13: Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight Special Edition #1

This is the Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight Special Edition #1 that was printed for ComicFest 2014. It's a odd little story with Jonathan Crane aka the Scarecrow planting explosives at power stations.

This is one wicked looking Scarecrow:

Batman is his usual mysterious self:

Unfortunately, the story is more of a prelude to Batman: Haunted Knight.

Countdown to Halloween 2014 Day 12: Spooktacular Sweeps at PCH

Publishers Clearing House (PCH) had a Spooktacular Sweeps and I thought I would share the two screen shots. The first one has a jack o' lantern wearing a witch's pointy hat (I would love to win that $10,000):

The second screen is my favorite since it featured a witch with animated bat and smoke:

I entered the Spooktacular Sweeps at PCH but didn't order any items.

Countdown to Halloween 2014 Day 11: Kansas Halloween Lottery Tickets

The only Kansas Halloween lottery tickets that I found this year around here was the one dollar "Cash Galore" scratch tickets so I bought two. The scene includes a haunted house with a bat flying out and a full moon behind it. There are also a witch, a werewolf and a mummy approaching the haunted house.

I did win a free ticket so it was like buying two and getting one free.

Yes, it's another special treat for Women Wednesday. Today I present to you the Bench Warmer 2008 Halloween trading cards featuring more beautiful women in sexy costumes.

Countdown to Halloween 2014 Day 7: 4WD Jeep Zombie Contest

I received an invitation to Vote to Turn This Scrap Heap to Slayer Jeep in my email today so I thought I would share it here since every entry receives a Zombie Hunting Permit Decal:

Countdown to Halloween 2014 Day 6: Halloween Erasers from Dollar General

The local Dollar General store was selling some Halloween erasers when they started stocking for the haunted holiday. I grabbed a package and noticed that it promised sixteen erasers but mine contained seventeen. They all have very creepy smiles.

The back of the package states that the erasers were made in China and distributed by Dolgencorp.

The purple erasers include Frankenstein's Monster, Jack O'Lantern, Count Dracula, Bat, Bowtie Ghost and Witch:

The green erasers includes Frankenstein's Monster, Jack O'Lantern, Bat, two Bowtie Ghosts and Witch:

The orange erasers includes Frankenstein's Monster, Jack O'Lantern, Bat, Bowtie Ghost and Witch:

I like to think that the purple Dracula eraser was a bonus.

Mark your calendars for Elvira: Mistress of the Dark Returns For An All New-Series that will stream exclusively on Hulu starting October 19 and ending Halloween night.

Countdown to Halloween 2014 Day 3: A&W Root Beer Mini Monster Can

I actually found the A&W Root Beer mini monster cans last month when my mother was on a root beer float kick. She doesn't use anything other than that brand but she only uses half of a normal size can when she makes one so the mini cans are the perfect size for her. Sunkist is supposed to have a mini monster can too but I couldn't find any at our local Walmart.

The front of the mini can has the torso of the monster holding the A&W Root Beer logo:

The monster's face is on the left side of the can when facing it:

Yes, I forgot to turn off the flash on the camera when I snapped the pictures of the A&W Root Beer mini monster so forgive the streaks of light.

Countdown to Halloween 2014 Day 1: Bench Warmer 2006 Halloween Trading Cards

Cassandra Lynn wearing naughty nurse costume:

Crystal Colar wearing police woman uniform:
