The Raptor is officially a Hot Wheels car! Wahooooo. While some may consider the #Sandblaster as a Ford F-150 Raptor, this #First Edition of the ’17 Ford F-150 Raptor casting is officially licensed by Ford and has collectors hitting the pegs in search of it. Ford hit a […]
The Hot Wheels Pop Culture line has had some less-than-ideal applications of graphics on vehicles. Some casting choices are head-scratchers as there are usually better choices in the eyes of collectors. While the line has turned some collectors off because of this, we’re here to show you the […]
