These releases are exclusive to Hot Wheels 5-Packs.
Ahhhh, the Ford Focus–the lone-wolf of the Night Breed 5-Pack. While its seemingly unclear of the Hot Wheels Marketing Department’s intentions behind including this pro-stock car in a 5-Pack with 4 other tuner-style cars, it does look great in that Spectrafrost Red. It looks so good that we […]
The second car in our #Night Breed Week-long series is the 24/Seven. An unlicensed Hot Wheels casting designed by Dave Weise that takes some strong design cues from a 1990s Mazda RX-7. It is believed the “Seven” in the second-half of the name is a nod to the […]
The Night Breed 5-Pack has to be one of the coolest Hot Wheels 5-Packs to ever hit the shelves. This 5-Pack was released in 2004 and contained 4 tuner cars and 1 pro-stock car. The best aspect: the cars featured the satin paint known as Spectrafrost before it was termed, “Spectrafrost”. […]
Once the Fastest Production Car of all-time, the Jaguar XJ220 was V12-powered supercar developed by a group of Jaguar employees in their spare time. Unveiled at the British International Motor Show in 1988, the Jaguar XJ220 was produced from 1992 to 1994. Throughout 1992, it held the Fastest […]
The Power Panel was designed by Phil Riehlman and is based off of the Dodge Power Wagon. Its an underrated casting believe it or not. Not being a very good track car, it has a tiny cult following of customizers and I believe the Hot Wheels Graphics Team […]
Another one of those former AcceleRacers castings, the Piledriver originated in the Metal Maniacs segment of that line. Driven by Deezel “Porkchop” Riggs in the cartoon, it is named after the wrestling move of the same name (according to the Hot Wheels Wiki). It has a V10 engine along […]
The Hot Wheels Seared Tuner is a special car for a variety of reasons. It is one of a few that has gone by multiple names for one. The Seared Tuner was originally released as the Sho-Stopper but the name changed in 2003 due to what was speculated […]
Some Hot Wheels grab all the headlines. The hobby, more often than not, is about the next “new” thing when sometimes all we need is to go back through our own collections to have a further appreciation for the cars we already have. That was my mind-set when creating […]
Batman is one of America’s most iconic superheroes while the Dodge Viper is one of America’s most iconic sports cars so it was a nice pairing when the ’06 Dodge Viper Coupe showed up in a 2007 Hot Wheels 5-Pack titled, “Gotham City“. The matte black paint job […]
As evident by this blog, graffiti makes a cool backdrop for diecast photo shoots. Graffiti is a type of art and has found its way onto street cars and Hot Wheels cars. In 2009, Hot Wheels released the Graffiti Rides 5-Pack featuring 5 vehicles with Graffiti graphics. This was […]
