Hot Wheels collectors have assembled casting collection “rainbows” since the redline days. It was one of the first levels of Hot Wheels collecting — collecting every color of a particular casting. To this day, collectors still collect this way. Collecting a rainbow of a particular casting isn’t as […]
There aren’t many older premium Hot Wheels #Lamborghinis out there. Hot Wheels and #Ferrari had a deep relationship pre-2015 before they parted ways, so not many Lambos saw the opportunity to grab the slots dedicated to exotics in premium. Granted, Hot Wheels premium was nothing like it is […]
#Exotic Envy — the first Hot Wheels #Car Culture mix dedicated solely to #Exotics. It has received mixed reviews thus far from collectors despite there being a demand for an exotic mix since the Car Culture line began 5 years ago. The mix contains the obvious headliner in […]
Like many of you, the majority of my casting collections don’t start with the #First Edition release. I mean, it’s not much of a collection to begin with unless multiple variants are released right off the bat. My affinity for the Hot Wheels #Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 began […]
Every year, the folks at Hot Wheels has a few, cool surprises up their sleeves. This one is two-fold. First, starting off in the mainline this year, we were treated to a new Hot Wheels partnership with #Gumball 3000. The second was the #Promotional Vehicle that would follow: […]
Collecting Hot Wheels by casting is fun. When you assemble a “family” — comprising of multiple releases of one casting — its a cool feeling as there is a sense of accomplishment that goes along with it. Also, its fun to see how many ways one 3D object […]
Perhaps one of the coolest #TV & Movie Cars that Hot Wheels has come out with is the #Lamborghini Murciélago from the 2018 #Walmart Exclusive #Batman Vehicles Series. Its the car Bruce Wayne is seen driving in The Dark Knight (2008) — yes, that’s the one with the Heath […]
Just last year, the 1988 casting of the #Lamborghini Countach was revived for the Walmart Exclusive Lamborghini Series. This year, there is a new version of that famous 1980s #Countach design. For far too long, many collectors couldn’t tell where the wonky design of the original Countach casting […]
The #Walmart Exclusive, Hot Wheels themed assortments have been a blessing, and a curse. At the time I am writing this, I literally just got back from a late-night Walmart run and saw a whole end-cap display full of the 2nd wave of the #Camouflage Series — sans […]
Wheels #Variations. For the longest time, I didn’t even recognize them in my own collection because collecting in the ’90s yielded all types of them. Back then, production of a specific mainline car could last months versus the several weeks we see now. It was often rumored that […]
