Do you ever buy a release solely because of its graphics or color combination? I know I do. Even before my days as a graphic designer, I had admired car art. Its one of several factors that got me into collecting Hot Wheels at a very young age. […]
What more can be said about the Hot Wheels #Datsun Bluebird 510 and its meteoric rise to collector favorite? The casting has achieved so much in seemingly a short amount of time considering it was introduced less than 10 years ago. For the first 4 years or so, […]
While some Hot Wheels collectors may be gawking at the ’55 Chevy Bel Air Gasser in the Car Meet 5-Pack, make sure you aren’t one to look past the #Subaru Impreza. This #Subaru — named “Subaru Impreza WRX” for this release — has a cult following of its […]
Considering the fact that the Candy Striper Gasser sells for close to $500 and other versions of the #’55 Chevy Bel Air Gasser sell for a good chunk of change, its practically a steal if you can find even a basic level version of the casting for $1. […]

I admit that I have a certain affinity for the larger Hot Wheels #Character Cars, which are mostly the characters which have been represented as trucks in this line. One of the latest of said trucks is #Thanos, the latest, super-villain from Marvel’s #Avengers franchise. With the movie […]
Enough can’t be said about how great of a tribute to the Hot Wheels #50th Anniversary that the #HW 50th Originals Collection is. As I stated the other day, the five cars chosen for this series are all modern castings that resemble five of the original 16 Hot […]
Whats to not like about the #HW 50th Originals Collection? Classic all-metal castings, #Spectraflame Paint, and #Redlines… these scream nostalgia. The intent of the series was to place five neo-castings that resembled five of the Original 16 castings, and place them in “Replica Redline” packaging. While these will […]
Have you ever been infatuated with a #Multi-Pack Exclusive car? I’m sure you have… Doesn’t it always seem to be in a Hot Wheels 9-Pack or 20-Pack where you don’t want ANY of the other cars? Ugh… Sometimes if you’re lucky, someone online will have the car for […]
