Towards the end of the #100% Hot Wheels — 2006 to be exact — the line was known as #Kalifornia Kustoms. These highly-detailed, multi-piece Hot Wheels castings were designed for the collector and featured a 14+ age on the packaging. For just this one year, the line’s packaging […]

Welcome to the 50th Anniversary of Hot Wheels! There should be a lot to be excited about if you’re a collector, let alone a collector of the Original 16 Hot Wheels castings. Come May, we should be seeing the Replica Redlines hit stores across the U.S., and while […]

This isn’t your average mainline #Viper as this one was crafted […]

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 […]
When a Hot Wheels line is discontinued, getting the last few vehicles from that line can be tricky as they are often released in short supply, or not at all. When it was revealed that the ’57 Buick would be released as part of the #Walmart Exclusive, HW […]
