Sometimes you just know when a Hot Wheels casting is going to be popular. This is one of them. The #’98 Subaru Impreza 22B STi-Version hit the pegs late last year as part of the #2020 Hot Wheels “A” case assortments. Subaru-savvy collectors knew exactly what this was […]
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 […]
With SEMA kicking off today in Las Vegas, it shouldn’t be long before we know the winner of the 2019 Hot Wheels Legends Tour — which will in-turn be the first known 2021 New Model. Before we jettison off to 2021, it seems very appropriate to come full-circle […]
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 […]
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 […]
Just last year, Hot Wheels collectors were introduced to “Mad” Mike Whiddett, a drift car racer from New Zealand. His Mazda REPU named “PITBUL” was featured in the 2017 HW Daredevils series. It was quite the debut for the Hot Wheels #Mazda REPU casting given its extensive graphics […]
Raise your hand if you’re loving these personally licensed Hot Wheels cars that have been appearing as of late. So far we have seen cars owned and driven by #Magnus Walker, #Sung Kang, Hot Wheels designers #Jun Imai and #Brendon Vetuskey, and even, Hot Wheels collector Roy de […]
Enter the #Subaru Impreza — a casting that appeared in a little known series (at the time) called the #FIA World Rally Championship Series (WRC) which was a subset of the #Hot Wheels Racing line in 2004. I don’t believe the series hit any of the big box […]
Wheels #Variations. For the longest time, I didn’t even recognize them in my own collection because collecting in the ’90s yielded all types of them. Back then, production of a specific mainline car could last months versus the several weeks we see now. It was often rumored that […]
The first #HW Race Team (2017) series car has shown up! Appearing in the 2017 mainline “J” case assortments, the #’12 Ford Fiesta comes sporting a #Hot Wheels Race Team #14 Rally El Segundo deco. The car-specific/unique background graphics have carried over from the #HW Race Team (2016), which […]
