Unlike a lot of other collectors, I never grew up around cool cars. When I started collecting in the mid ’90s, my parents owned a Ford Taurus and a Ford Aerostar, and cars were a method of getting from Point A to Point B. As I got older, […]
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 […]
#Lamborghini and Hot Wheels have had a great relationship for the last decade, as Hot Wheels has produced at least one new Lamborghini casting every year since 2009 — a streak that unfortunately ends this year. However, before you begin to think Lamborghini is going the route of Ferrari, […]
So how many of you out there collect Hot Wheels by the casting? When I first started collecting, I was a cardboard completest, buying anything and everything to complete the numbers on the blister cards — the more extreme version a cardboard collector. While that persisted for a couple decades, […]
If you’re a fan of authentic car graphics on an ever-growing rainbow of colors, you’re in luck with the brand-new, #’15 Jaguar F-Type Project 7 from the 2017 #HW Exotics Series. This #Exotic #Convertible casting appeared just two years ago as a #2015 New Model in the Track Aces […]

At first glance, the question most collectors have been asking themselves is, “why would you pay $4 more for the same car?” I know I did. Although the Hot Wheels Ford GT LM was released in both the $1 (basic) #Gran Turismo Series and the $5 #Hot Wheels […]
Securing video game licenses has been a clever way to sneak some diversity into the #Hot Wheels Entertainment Line as the line heads for its fifth consecutive year in 2017 (now as “Replica Entertainment”). Many popular #TV & Movie Cars have been released — and rereleased — so it […]
WOW! Just wow! The brand-new Hot Wheels #Lamborghini Huracán LP 620-2 Super Trofeo has collectors picking their jaw off of the floor as this stunning #Exotic #Race Car has collectors busting open the packaging and grabbing the camera as the lines on this one just make you want […]
As an editor (moderator) over at HotWheelsCollectors.com (HWC), I often see collectors clamoring for the Red Line Club (RLC) of years’ past — often referring to the beginning as the “glory years”. Well, I can recall those years pretty vividly and they weren’t as seamless as most can […]
