As a Hot Wheels collector who is budget savvy, I love hunting older releases online. Often collectors completely dismiss some cool pieces that are several years old in favor of adding the latest Treasure Hunts to their collection. With almost 50 years of Hot Wheels vehicles, I can guarantee there are cool […]
With kind of a lackluster second wave of the 2017 #Red Edition series vehicles hitting Targets soon, its hard not to look back at the first wave Red Edition vehicles which were right on the spot. These #Red Edition cars are part of their own segment series in the Hot Wheels […]
Did anyone see the Faraday Future car park itself the other day? GEEZ! Long before Smart cars and artificial intelligence existed, they were merely science fiction as one the first “smart-cars” was from the TV Series, Knight Rider (1982). This #Pontiac #Firebird turned secret weapon was known as Knight […]
In the Hot Wheels mainline, for every realistic car there always seems to be one that is a little wacky. Whether its of the #’Tooned variety, is strictly a “track car”, or just clearly isn’t from a licensed car manufacturer; some of these “Hot Wheels Originals” or #Unlicensed Hot […]
It seems as though the Hot Wheels #Ford Escort Rally casting has undergone a little bit of a face-lift for 2017. First introduced in 1998, the Escort Rally’s top-mounted plastic spoiler has been moved to the trunk, and is now cast as part of the metal body for this […]

Chances are, if you’re up-to-date on your Hot Wheels hunting and have found the latest “D” case assortment of 2017 vehicles, then you’ve seen this funny looking VW Beetle on the pegs. Seasoned collectors will most likely have recognized the paint/graphics on this one. Whether you’re a glass half-empty or […]
2016 has been a great year for collecting Hot Wheels and the future continues to be bright as we inch another year closer to the 50th Anniversary in 2018. Looking back at the year, there weren’t many mainline trios as good as the #BMW 2002 from the 2016 […]
