As a child of the 1980s, I was born into the Hot Wheels #Real Riders era by default. Many of my favorite childhood cars had them. See Real Riders: Jeep Scrambler. When I started collecting in the mid-1990s, Hot Wheels #Redlines had already taken off in value — […]
When the second wave of #Hot Wheels iD dropped on July 12th, the car I was most excited for was the Speed Demons #’70 Dodge Charger R/T. As a collector of this #Brendon Vetuskey Designed casting — and most Hot Wheels #Chargers from this era — I had […]
For Christmas, my wife bought me a Carney Display Case. For those that don’t know, in our 10+ year relationship, she has never bought me anything diecast-related so this is clearly a momentous occasion in our relationship. 😉 With that said, I have always been quite fond of […]
If you’ve been keeping up here on OTD, you saw that there is a new #Batman Vehicles Series appearing at Walmart. Judging by the initial reaction by collectors, there isn’t much excitement over the series. Its understandable as there is only so much you can do to some […]
How has your luck been with finding the #’69 Dodge Charger Daytona from the Hot Wheels #Retro Style Series? Considering how well stock moves at your local Target may have been a factor as this series was a #Target Exclusive. However, that wasn’t the only factor that limited […]

The Hot Wheels 5-Pack binge continues as I’ve bought yet another. Just like how I bought the HW City Works 5-Pack for the Turbine Time, I bought the #Muscle Mania 5-Pack (2017) because I collect one of the vehicles in it, the #’69 Dodge Charger Daytona. I’ll be […]
One of my all-time favorite Hot Wheels castings would have to be the #’70 Dodge Charger Daytona. Newer collectors need not confuse it with the #’69 Dodge Charger Daytona that was introduced in 2013, as this casting hasn’t been produced since it was #Final Run‘d in 2003. Why […]
The #Ice Charger from The Fate of the Furious (2017) — or F8 for short — is finally here! While it didn’t quite make it into the Hot Wheels lineup by the April release date of the movie (in theatres), it did start hitting the in United States […]
Hot Wheels has so many #Dodge #Charger castings that it can be a daunting task just to keep them all straight. Heck, if you’re looking just by name/year, there are five 1970 Charger castings, but each are vastly different. In what has been commonly called the #Blown Engine […]
