Description[]
The Tooligan was designed by Wayne Scott. It was his first vehicle design, as Wayne is mostly known as a Hot Wheels Graphics Designer. The Tooligan serves multiple purposes. It depicts a futuristic tool-themed sports car. The casting also serves as a multi-purpose tool. The spoiler is a 3/8 wrench and the chassis has a hole to fit a 1/4" hex, which also fits a flathead, Phillips, or a bore bit. The front spoiler to the windshield is made to resemble pliers. Its engines are giant Phillips screwdrivers. For the original 2010 releses, the front spoiler/bumper was decorated as a ruler with measurements in inches.
