My #Hot Wheels iD #Rip Rod finally shipped from Amazon, and I received it yesterday. I have to admit that I’ve been quite excited to receive it as I never like leaving any loose ends to a casting collection; and this is yet another casting that I collect. […]
Chances are, if you’ve been following OTD for a while, you know about my affinity for the #Hot Wheels Race Team livery. I have quite the collection spanning 280+ releases of this popular deco to collect. Several years ago, when Super #Treasure Hunts became variants of their mainline […]
Kudos to Hot Wheels for keeping things absurd. No, that isn’t sarcasm you’re hearing, its an actual compliment. In today’s world of collecting, it would be easy to sell all kinds of licensed cars with vintage racing designs or even ultra clean decos — but that isn’t Hot […]

Not to be confused with #Treasure Hunts, these Scavenger Hunt vehicles are usually tied into a promotion at Kroger stores and its subsidiaries. Packaged in the normal mainline cases, these cars are not tied […]
Red and green typically don’t look good together on ANY car as the colors remind many of the Christmas season. However, this release manages to win in the vintage racing category as it combines a vintage brand in Castrol Motoroil with a vintage rally car in the #’70 Ford […]
