Ask any collector for a top 10 list of Red Line Club (#RLC) releases and I’m almost certain this #’01 Mini Cooper doesn’t show up. That mostly speaks to the hundreds of awesome cars the club has released on HWC over the last 20 years, but in a […]
Vehicles from the ’80s and ’90s as Hot Wheels seem to be all the rage these days. Call it the Gran Turismo generation — or whatever you like — but a new wave of collectors that grew up racing rare race cars (in video games) has demanded the […]
Hot Wheels Designer, Brendon Vetuskey is on a roll. Not only is he a spectacular guy and an advocate for the collector, but his attention to detail has him knocking #HWC/RLC designs out of the park! Brendon (and team) leveled-up the RLC back in 2018 when he stated […]
You always hear from collectors who went to the grocery store for “X” and found supers, or “soup”. In the back of your mind is, “yeaaaah, riiiight” or, “that never happens to me…”; well, that was me this last Sunday. Wandered into my local grocery store down the […]
We have reached the pinnacle of Hot Wheels premium thus far. That is a fact! Collectors like to oooh and ahhh over the latest mixes of #Car Culture, #Boulevard, #Replica Entertainment, #Fast & Furious, and sometimes even #Pop Culture. New mixes sell like hot cakes, while older ones […]

Aftermarket manufacturers and Hot Wheels have long had a relationship — its custom 1:64 cars meets custom 1:1 cars. Until recently, however, that relationship didn’t extend past the tampo as far as Hot Wheels are concerned. This car had Edelbrock graphics, this one had Mooneyes, so on and […]
Rarely does a Hot Wheels mainline car debut in limited edition form. Only a couple vehicles have debuted in the mainline with Super Treasure Hunt counterparts which — off the top of my head — are the Toyota 2000GT in 2013, and the #’17 Ford GT in 2016. […]
Back in the fall of 2019, Hot Wheels collectors were greeted by the #Mod Rod — a modern take on the hot rod, designed by Hot Wheels designer, Dmitriy Shakhmatov. That October at the convention in LA, designer Eric Han had his latest creation — the #Erikenstein Rod […]
The Hot Wheels #MBK Van recently hit the pegs as part of the Speed Shop Garage of #Pop Culture. As soon as collectors started to find it, questions were asked: What type of van is it? Will we see more vehicles with #HKS livery? Why is there an […]
