Hot Wheels store exclusives seem to be in a holding pattern as of late. The 2017 #ZAMACs have yet to hit Walmart and only the first wave of Red Edition series cars have hit Target, despite a couple from the second wave appearing on eBay close to two months […]
The Hot Wheels #Hooligan almost always makes collectors think they have captured an error as the casting does not have a windshield. Perhaps, its all in the name but this car can get you at the pegs if you are unaware of the casting in the first place. […]
The two week jump that Target got to distribute the Hot Wheels #Car Culture / Air-Cooled series is over and collectors have started finding this series at other retailers. While it seems the VWs are a popular commodity as I haven’t seen the Beetle and the Squareback yet, this #VW […]
Well, the “Michael Keaton Batmobile” is back in the Hot Wheels mainline appearing as part of the 2017 “F” case assortments. Collectors that will be attending the Kmart Collector’s Day this Saturday will be finding this one in their cases. As a collector of this specific #’89 Batmobile […]

We have a tank! All apologies to the #Tanknator aside, this is the first realistic tank released in a Hot Wheels line since 1997 when we saw the last releases of the Command Tank and Tough Customer tank castings. The #UNSC Scorpion is a brand-new, #First Edition tank […]
