Lately collectors have been chasing many cars from the Hot Wheels Entertainment line, especially the #Need for Speed Koenigsegg Agera R. While there have been quite a few gems found in that line, sometimes some real nice licensed #TV & Movie Cars can be found in the mainline […]

Turns out the Custom Volkswagen Beetle from the newly released Volkswagen 5-Pack wasn’t the only variation found in the pack. While it was surely the most noticeable, the Volkswagen Type 181 from that same 5-Pack received a more subtle casting modification. The VW Type 181 on the left […]
