These are vehicles that feature a blown engine.
Speed, power and performance. If there are three things the Hot Wheels brand does better (through design) than anyone else, its these elements. So leave it to Hot Wheels designer Abe Lugo to take this food truck to the next level. Abe, who also designed the Matchbox Food Truck, gave this […]
As you can most likely tell, I cannot get enough of the 2016 #Target Exclusive #Hot Wheels Retro Style Series. Priced at $1.29 here in the United States, most of the vehicles chosen have been worth it just based on the fact that they have had metal bodies […]
Later this year we will be celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Hot Wheels Collectors Conventions in California — a convention I’m hoping to make this year. This 30th installment will take place October 5-9, 2016 at the Marriott Los Angeles Airport Hotel. Over the last several years, between […]
The other day I was at Target, rummaging through the pegs full of old stock. I didn’t even bother to finish looking through the mainlines as it was the same old #Unlicensed Hot Wheels that I have been coming across lately. Unwilling to accept an unsuccessful visit to Target, […]

With the 16th Annual Hot Wheels Nationals Convention in Indianapolis today, we’re looking at a Convention Car from years past. Eight years ago, at the 22nd Annual Hot Wheels Collectors Convention, we were graced with an excellent rendition of the Hot Wheels SS Express casting. Back when HotWheelsCollectors.com (HWC) brought a car […]
THIS ARTICLE WAS UPDATED ON JULY 14, 2018 TO INCLUDE NEW PICTURES AND LINKS. If the Hot Wheels #Gremlin Grinder emulated the AMC Gremlin in any way other than the obvious design of the car, it would have to be its short life as a Hot Wheels casting. […]
The Cruise Bruiser is one of those Hot Wheels castings that instantly takes you back to your childhood. Playing the role of Captain Destructo as a child, many of my Hot Wheels from the 1980s did not survive as they were “well-loved”–and by well-loved, I mean crashed, burned […]
All hail the mighty Bone Shaker! The casting has served as the signature vehicle of the Hot Wheels brand since 2006. Right away, collectors were drawn to this heavily modified, rat-rod-style, original design based off of a Model A. Legendary Hot Wheels Designer, Larry Wood spared no detail […]
