These releases of castings all feature an opening feature.
Sometimes as collectors, we get too caught up in buying and selling the latest Hot Wheels releases — so much so that sometimes we forget that the Hot Wheels brand once catered to us as kids. I get that some collectors only collect the replicas of their favorite […]
As a collector of Hot Wheels for over 20 years, its easy to look back and reminisce how the hobby has changed — and how is hasn’t — over that time period. It seems like just yesterday I was writing down my cars that I had accumulated in […]
Some collectors lately are loving to hate Hot Wheels. For the very reason that Hot Wheels were bought for them as kids — $1 toy car — it seems as though in the world of social media, some collectors fail to understand that through 50 years, that remarkably […]
Just a little over a decade ago, Volkswagens were all the rage. It seemed as though whenever Hot Wheels put a new #VW out, collectors were all over it, leaving none behind. Newer collectors got a glimpse of that this year with the release of the #Volkswagen T2 […]
The passing of an individual often causes many people to reflect back on that individual, the life they lived and how they affected you. Since former Hot Wheels graphics designer (turned freelance graphic designer) Wayne Scott passed away earlier this month, I had been thinking back to some […]
The #Baja Hauler is one of the newest Hot Wheels to date. It just started to show up at retail here in the United States as part of the “H” case assortments. At first glance, this #Unlicensed Hot Wheels truck is definitely some sort of #Off-Road Vehicle, then […]
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. It was Don Prudhomme’s appearance at Barrett-Jackson this last weekend here in Phoenix, that served […]
Arguably the most famous rivalry in racing history was #Snake & Mongoose. Their story, which can be seen in the 2013 movie titled, Snake & Mongoose, is unique in the diecast world as its weaved within that of the history of Hot Wheels itself. The movie was incredibly entertaining — […]
In all the Dodge Vipers Hot Wheels has made, the #Dodge Viper GTS reigns supreme. Sure, the #Dodge Viper RT/10 was the first one they ever produced and has that nostalgic factor, but the detail in this GTS supersedes that nostalgia. This isn’t your average mainline #Viper as this one was crafted […]
As a Hot Wheels collector who is budget savvy, I love hunting older releases online. Often collectors completely dismiss some cool pieces that are several years old in favor of adding the latest Treasure Hunts to their collection. With almost 50 years of Hot Wheels vehicles, I can guarantee there are cool […]
