These are the first edition (or first occurrence) of a particular casting. Often times (for Hot Wheels), these are found in First Editions or New Models Series, but sometimes they are found without the “first edition” designation.
When Hot Wheels designer, Eric Han brought the “first shot” prototypes of the #Gruppo x24 to the last convention in October, many collectors overlooked both him and this new casting. See, Eric works as a designer in tracks and playsets designing things like the Hot Wheels Super Ultimate […]
The Hot Wheels #Acura NSX GT3 makes its #First Edition debut in the #2019 Hot Wheels #Replica Entertainment line. Its in the second mix for 2019 known as mix “M” if you’re buying by the case, which is good to know as I don’t expect these to last […]
File this under, “Awesome!”: Hot Wheels has fully-embraced the fact that Elon Musk decided to use a Hot Wheels car fastened to the dashboard of his Tesla Roadster he launched into space as part of the SpaceX Falcon Heavy mission last February. So much so, that there are […]
Since I laid eyes on the Hot Wheels #Muscle Bound, I knew it was a must-have for the collection. Prior articles on OTD would suggest I was drawn to the killer #Shark Face Nose Art graphics done by Hot Wheels Graphic Designer, Leeway Chang. But that is only […]
After nearly 20 years without a new #Unimog casting, we were greeted with the release of the 2019 HW Hot Trucks: Mercedes-Benz Unimog 1300 as part of the #2019 Hot Wheels “A” case assortments back in October (shown in red below). Well, oddly enough, the #2018 Hot Wheels […]

This brand-new casting is called the #Wheelie Chair and this #First Edition release features a licensed deco for extreme wheelchair athlete, Aaron “Wheelz” Fotheringham. Check […]
Some of the #Unlicensed Hot Wheels #Trucks can be pretty cool. I often wonder what they would look like on the road if they were 1:1 cars. The newest truck from Hot Wheels is one that is dubbed #2-Tuff. It appears in the #HW Hot Trucks Series and […]
Way back in May, we found out that Hot Wheels would be doing a Cruella de Vil car. Since it was a generic placement image used for the 2018 Hot Wheels poster, it was easy to speculate which #TV/Movie Car Hot Wheels would use. I had a feeling […]
Its almost been 20 years since we’ve seen a #Unimog in the Hot Wheels mainline! Can you believe that?!?!? Well, I am pleased to say that the void is over as the brand-new, #Mercedes-Benz Unimog 1300 is a #2019 New Model. Gone is the military-style — complete with […]
Lets talk: #Enzo Ferrari. How many of you were collecting when this one came out as part of the #2003 First Editions? Only one color for this new model — bright #Ferrari red — and finding them was by no means, hard. At one point, I even had […]
