Were you the one to get Ed Roth's autograph on the costume? I never actually met Roth anywhere but I had a couple phone conversations with him circa 2000.

Yeah, I got him to sign at at the Hot Rod Hootenanny at the Moon Records parking lot show. My buddy got an old toilet seat painted with a Rat Fink airbrushed treatment.

I wonder what they were supposed to be used for? Mine is only a few inches thick. I assume there are 4 in the set. I’ve had mine like forever and haven’t seen another other than these.

Hepcat Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 (edited) A Rat Fink figure proportional to the car and resembling the one pictured on the box is included. The inclusion of the fink figures made the slot cars too top heavy of course and they were very poor performers on any slot car track.

I remember seeing one of the "Big Daddy" Roth ones when I was actively accumulating vinyl LP's circa 1970. I have one other "Big Daddy" Roth LP you've not pictured: I like to relax to the sweet sounds of Rods 'n Ratfinks: But I don't have the Weird-Ohs or Silly Surfers LP's. I take it that yours are two separate albums. I believe I've seen an LP with the Weird-Ohs on the front of the sleeve and the Silly Surfers on the back.
