A couple weeks ago, I published an article on HotWheelsCollectors.com — exclusively for Red Line Club members — that explained where the Hot Wheels Race Team originated, in addition to including some interesting collections within the segment that seemingly has no bounds. Under the section titled, “The Hot […]
We’ve seen movie delays before, and thanks to COVID-19, the whole motion picture industry is still scrambling to get a hold of things. Movie theaters are still not opened, and it doesn’t appear they will open any time soon — and somehow drive-in movies became a thing again. […]
#Hot Wheels iD evolved the common Hot Wheels car. In 2019, 51 castings were designed to incorporate a near-field communication (NFC) chip that sends data to your phone, Smart Track and/or Portal. This makes for some cool data usage as you are able to play with your car […]
The latest wave of Hot Wheels iD hit Amazon on Thursday, and less than 24 hours later, the cars were in-hand. Some collectors were underwhelmed by the four vehicles — two of which were #Unlicensed Hot Wheels. Me? Well, I was excited to add yet another #”15 Jaguar […]
Two weeks ago I found the 2018 #HW Exotics 5-Pack at a Target here in the United States. This came only days after these started appearing in Australia — a market that has traditionally got 5-Packs a month ahead of the U.S.. As you can see, the pack […]

The highly anticipated Gran Turismo 8-car series is here! Since this series will not appear in the big box stores here in the United States, I ordered the full case off of 1StopDiecast.com. It came with the full set of 8 cars, plus 4 extras (1 each of […]
When we featured the Track Aces (2015 New Models) ’15 Jaguar F-Type Project 7 back in August, we gave you a run-down of what makes this car so cool. Well this Jaguar is back for 2016. While the graphics have essentially been copied over, the British Racing Green […]
When I shifted my collecting focus from “cardboard completist” to “buy-what-you-like” & “casting collector” in 2012, I began tracking down wheel variations of the castings I had already collected. I still have a long way to go on the wheel variations of the Jaguar XJ220 (I know most of […]
