#Hot Wheels iD evolved the common Hot Wheels car. In 2019, 51 castings were designed to incorporate a near-field communication (NFC) chip that sends data to your phone, Smart Track and/or Portal. This makes for some cool data usage as you are able to play with your car […]
Today is the day that I quit collecting Hot Wheels. Say Whaaaat? Let me rephrase that: Today is the day I was supposed to quit collecting Hot Wheels. See, back in the ’90s, when I started collecting Hot Wheels, I recall saying to a friend: when Hot Wheels […]
The highly-anticipated, Frozen II (2019) movie comes out today; a long six years after the original. For most kids these days, that was a lifetime ago. Take, for instance, my daughter: she wasn’t even born when the first movie came out. Now at 5-years-old is a self-proclaimed Elsa […]
File this under: straight-wacky. The brand-new, Hot Wheels #RV There Yet has just been released and it already has the collectors talking. This wacky car & camper combo is truly unique. It features a cartoony hatchback with an equally cartoony camper on back — hence why it is […]

The #2020 Hot Wheels have started to appear, but before we totally move on from 2019, we need to look at the last #2019 New Model: the #Mod Rod. This modern, modified hot rod — hence the name “Mod Rod” — is a super slick Hot Wheels original […]
The #Hiway Hauler 3.0 has arrived! The modern take on the classic Hot Wheels hauler makes it’s debut in the latest wave of Hot Wheels iD, as part of the HW Metro series. It is one of several #First Edition castings to make their debut in the #Hot […]
The Range Rover is back in the Hot Wheels mainline! …said no Hot Wheels collector ever. Okay, that may be a little harsh, as I am sure there are a few luxury #SUV nuts out there. However, when you weigh the magical “return of Bugatti” via the hype […]
