HW Digital Circuit: BLADE RAIDER

A couple weeks ago when we showcased the HW Digital Circuit: Tour de Fast, we mentioned how there are now #Chase cars in the mainline past the usual #Treasure Hunts. We also mentioned that these new “chase” cars appear to be limited to the #HW Digital Circuit (2017) […]

Then and Now Series: ’13 DODGE VIPER SRT

If you could sum up modern day Hot Wheels collecting in a nut-shell, one could argue its like keeping up with the Joneses. You’re buying the latest cars, keeping up with the assortments, tracking others’ finds online, and of course, hunting for the #Treasure Hunts — whether to […]

2011 Treasure Hunts: ’57 CHEVY

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 […]

HW Art Cars: FANDANGO

The ’90s called, they want their Hot Wheels back! Haha! All joking aside (since April Fool’s Day was yesterday), the newest #2017 Hot Wheels #Treasure Hunts is the #Fandango and its been showing up as part of the “H” case assortments. This ’90s-inspired graphic art scheme appeared last […]

HW Race Team: CARBONIC

Rounding out the #2016 Treasure Hunts as the “Q” case (or last assortment) Super TH, the #Carbonic has drawn mixed reviews. Some have called it the “Worst Super of 2016” while others hold it in a higher regard. Was it the casting that had people hating on it? […]

Fright Cars: FANGULA

Is it just me, or do regular #Treasure Hunts seem to be more plentiful this year? I have found a couple dozen of these in the last couple months which has to be a new record for me with regular treasure hunts. It was weird… I left all but […]

Legends of Speed: WINNING FORMULA

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, […]

Night Burnerz: DRIFTSTA

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 […]

HW Daredevils: DUNE CRUSHER

How many times must we say it? Given the right graphics treatment, some of these less-than-popular #Unlicensed Hot Wheels can really stand out! After multiple colorway releases in the 2014 & 2015 mainline and a less-than-stellar Snow Stormers 5-Pack release earlier this year, the #Dune Crusher was released […]
