1/21/2019 — The #Target Exclusive #HW Throwback series has resurfaced for 2019. Several collectors have found these within the last few days at their local Target stores. This year’s mix consists of eight cars and a purple stripe on the card — oppose to blue (mix 1 2018) and green (mix 2 2018). Seven of the eight cars wear #Blackwalls while the #’85 Honda City Turbo II wears the basic #5-Spoke Wheels because (it is presumed) Hot Wheels doesn’t make Blackwalls small enough to fit it. The picture was provided by Evan M. who found these at a New Jersey Target. Thanks Evan for giving us our first look at the completed series.
