The reason I started this site nearly two years ago was to #Showcase my collection. But that wasn’t it … it was also about sharing #News and telling cool stories about Hot Wheels, all while injecting personal experiences from my 20+ years of collecting on occasion. Every so often, I don’t have […]
Ever think that a Hot Wheels casting was discontinued, only to have it show up again? I was under the impression that the #Mazda Furai had been discontinued. I’m not 100% sure why, but I seem to recall it was surrounded by a social media rumor that was started when the […]
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 […]
Ah yes, the Hakosuka… wait?!?!? …What did I just say? Let me backup a little… Chances are, if you’ve been involved in collecting modern Hot Wheels as of late you’ve noticed the influx of Japanese Domestic Market vehicles. These #JDM vehicles are especially popular on all the social media sites […]
There was only a 5-year span (2007-2011) in which we got regular and super #Treasure Hunts (TH/$TH) of the same casting. This began when Hot Wheels went to the 2-tier TH system in 2007 and ended in 2012 when super Treasure Hunts became hidden in the various segment […]
You have to love what the Hot Wheels team is doing with their #Porsches as of late. After not having the licenses for Mercedes-Benz and Ferrari for the last few years, they’ve brought on #Magnus Walker and his brand #Urban Outlaw to give some of their Porsches that #Race […]
In the Hot Wheels mainline, for every realistic car there always seems to be one that is a little wacky. Whether its of the #’Tooned variety, is strictly a “track car”, or just clearly isn’t from a licensed car manufacturer; some of these “Hot Wheels Originals” or #Unlicensed Hot […]
In today’s Hot Wheels landscape, it seems as though every line or series has some sort of #Chase piece in it — whether its produced that way or not. Even when there isn’t meant to be a chase piece, collectors/profiteers/etc. find a way to make one. This has been […]
Anyone remember when Volkswagens were all the rage in the mid-2000s? It seemed as though anything #VW flew off the shelves. Of course there was the #Volkswagen Drag Bus selling out repeatedly at HotWheelsCollectors.com (HWC), but there was also a huge following in the VW Beetle, VW Karman […]
I have to admit that I was a little surprised to find this regular #Treasure Hunt sitting in a sidekick at Target the other day. While regular Treasure Hunts (TH) seem to either be produced in higher quantities as of late and/or collectors are just leaving them behind, […]
