These releases are exclusive to Hot Wheels 5-Packs.
When Hot Wheels first released the Subaru Impreza casting in 2004, it was the first ever Hot Wheels #Subaru. Released in Hot Wheels Racing’s World Rally Championship 4-car series, the casting, nor the series weren’t entirely popular. 12 years later the tide has changed as collectors have been paying […]
Don’t let the orange paint, realistic proportions and industrial graphics throw you off. This is not a Matchbox truck, this is a Hot Wheels truck. Since Mattel bought Matchbox in 1997, Hot Wheels and Matchbox have diverged in brand direction. Matchbox focuses on regular, everyday vehicles while Hot Wheels […]
The beauty of rediscovering your collection is coming across a beauty such as this! An afterthought as part of the Cyborg City 5-Pack in 2001, this hot, little Porsche would be a great seller in today’s Hot Wheels lineup for a variety of reasons. Hot Wheels, in recent years, […]
We’re only in January, yet we’ve been graced with several #Hot Wheels Race Team vehicles for 2016 — two of which, have come via 5-Packs. This #Hollowback, along with the Ballistik from the Track Stars 5-Pack have been great surprises, and both have worn the #16 for 2016. While the […]

We’ve reach the summit of #Night Breed Week here at Diecast Motorsports. This series has been great and has spawned several other future ideas. We conclude #Night Breed Week with the car I feel is the pinnacle of the Night Breed 5-Pack, the Toyota Celica. I eluded to […]
Here we are in day 4 of #Night Breed Week and we have an unlicensed Hot Wheels casting named, Flight ’03. While I’m the first to admit that I don’t know much about this casting, Please allow for me to point a few things out. First, the Flight […]
