While it may have been Baze Malbus that had me wanting to buy this #Hot Wheels Character Cars / #Star Wars #Rogue One 5-Pack, it was the #Captain Cassian Andor casting that sealed the deal. This car that resembles a new #Camaro in the front, mixed with the […]
When the team at Hot Wheels produced the #Dual Cool 5-Pack in 2005, it wasn’t their intention to have double the #Variations on the vehicles in it — let alone three different 5-Packs all together. If you were collecting back in 2005, you most likely remember this 5-Pack as […]
Rediscovering your collection is key to your longevity in Hot Wheels collecting. I’ve said it time and time again. I have personally seen many collectors come and go, as to most of those collectors, its all about obtaining the latest releases that everyone craves — which will burn […]
Okay, since I stated it yesterday that we couldn’t have #Mongoose without #Snake (and vice versa). Today, we have #Don Prudhomme‘s Snake Funny Car from the same 2005 #Mongoose & Snake Drag Race Set.

With almost 50 years of Hot Wheels vehicles, I can guarantee there are cool […]
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 […]
Keep your eyes peeled at all times! …lesson for even the most experienced of diecast hunters! We have all been to the pegs at a retail store, got overly-excited for hitting the jackpot or got antsy and left due to the lack of new inventory. Chances are, you’ve skipped […]
