What did they call the Meanies with Sharks for Hands?


I know there were lots of odd Meanies but there was one group I never heard called anything.

There were the Snapping Turkey Turks, the Apple Bonkers, Robin the Butterfly Stomper, the traditional Blue Meanies, the Bulldogs, the Coundown Clowns, the Flying Glove, the Hidden Persuaders (those guys who had guns that came out of their shoes) but the ones I never heard called anything were the blue guys with sharks for hands and the sharks had weird paysley tongues.

I'd feel sorry for those guys. You go to the bathroom once in the dark and next thing you know you'd have a free sex change.

EDIT: Oh, they were called Jack the Nippers (although never mentioned as such in the film itself)

So what was the name for that creature that sucked the entire universe into his craw?

Suckerman. Seriously.

The McFarland Toys action figure was called "Sucking Monster".

I thought I heard the Paul character refer to him as 'The Dreaded Vacuum Thrust'.....

But I could be wrong...
