Hot Wheels cars have been around since 1968 and feature a wide-array of licensed and unlicensed vehicles.
One of the best Hot Wheels #Treasure Hunts of all-time, the Dodge Viper RT/10 from the 1996 Treasure Hunts Series still looks fabulous 20 years later! Back in ’96, only the second year of the Treasure Hunts, production numbers of this popular series were still noted on the blister […]
Trucks have long been popular in the Hot Wheels line. These days, any truck with Real Riders seems to fly off the pegs. I’m sure some people wonder why Hot Wheels trucks are so popular considering the Hot Wheels brand was built around the “fastest metal cars in […]

In Hot Wheels first full-length movie, the Hot Wheels World Race (2003), 35 drivers competed for the title “World’s Best Driver”. In this animated film, the fictional drivers were from all walks of life. From various professional racers to 16-year-old kids with “talent”, these drivers had to taken on an […]
The Auto Milestones line of 2002 was exclusive to Walmart stores and featured 16 classic cars that redefined the auto industry. 15 of the 16 cars were adorned with Real Rider tires and all cars featured their own auto milestone blurb on back of their card (which was sealed […]
Yesterday, we looked at the #Cool-One from the Super Mario Bros. segment of the Hot Wheels Pop Culture line. As mentioned in that article, the premium tooling now differs from the mainline tooling. As you can see below, in the side-by-side picture, the engine, interior and windows are […]
