Real Riders are synthetic plastic tires that are made to look and feel like rubber. They were developed by Hot Wheels designers Bob Rosas and Larry Wood. They were first released in 1983 and continue to be released to this day.
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 […]
The #RLC #sELECTIONs series is a rather unique concept in the diecast world. In 2004, the idea was launched (to coincide with the United States’ Presidential Election that year) to have the collectors “design” a series of Red Line Club vehicles. Collectors were able to vote for a casting (from […]
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 […]
As a kid who spent many years yearning for #Hot Wheels and #Star Wars to come together, I am definitely not taking for granted the treasure trove of Star Wars Hot Wheels released across so many different lines over the last several years. While I’ll admit, I don’t […]

It was announced that Target stores would be getting the #Car Culture / HW Redliners series two weeks earlier than other retailers, and that the #Car Culture line will only be sold in-stores for now — not online. Two of the remaining series for the 2017 Car Culture line […]
There are many reasons to give “thanks” this year, especially in the Hot Wheels world, and this is one of them. Back in early September, it was revealed that the #’66 Batmobile would be the only Mattel-made #Convention Vehicle for the 9th Annual Mexico Hot Wheels Collectors Convention. Held November […]
If you’re into Hot Wheels castings that fly below the radar, the 2015 #Hot Wheels Entertainment Line certainly had one. The ’74 Checker Taxi Cab is just one beautiful looking car. Similar to the London Taxi, the 1:1 Checker Taxi was widely known in the United States for its […]
Sometimes, all it takes is some #Spectraflame Paint and some #Real Riders to really make an #Unlicensed Hot Wheels car stand out. Such was the case this year with the Driftsta released in the #Night Burnerz Series. The Hot Wheels #Driftsta casting quietly snuck onto the scene last […]
