When Hot Wheels first released the Subaru Impreza casting in 2004, it was the first ever Hot Wheels #Subaru. Released in Hot Wheels Racing’s World Rally Championship 4-car series, the casting, nor the series weren’t entirely popular. 12 years later the tide has changed as collectors have been paying […]
The Raptor is officially a Hot Wheels car! Wahooooo. While some may consider the #Sandblaster as a Ford F-150 Raptor, this #First Edition of the ’17 Ford F-150 Raptor casting is officially licensed by Ford and has collectors hitting the pegs in search of it. Ford hit a […]
The Hot Wheels Pop Culture line has had some less-than-ideal applications of graphics on vehicles. Some casting choices are head-scratchers as there are usually better choices in the eyes of collectors. While the line has turned some collectors off because of this, we’re here to show you the […]

Hot Wheels castings often drive off into the sunset without warning. The Bad Mudder’s lone release (as a 1998 First Edition, shown below) came and went but it wasn’t until a couple years that the rumors started to swirl in regards to its demise. In the world of […]
You know that saying, “everything is bigger in Texas”? While that may not be true for everything, Texans do take a general pride in that statement and the notion of it holds true. On Saturday, I was driving through Scottsdale (Ariz.) on the 101 and saw a Ford […]
The United States of America turns another year old and while Hot Wheels were not made back in 1776, nor was the automobile, we take you back to 1997. Why 1997? Well thats the year the patriotic Humvee you see below was produced as a promotional piece for […]
The Baja Truck is a casting that was forged from the Team Hot Wheels Campaign. It all started with the Fearless at the 500 Record Setting Jump on May 29, 2011. Watch the video >> HERE. Does that truck on the ramp look familiar? Its the 1:1 version […]
