Unlicensed Hot Wheels are Hot Wheels castings that don’t require licensing agreements with automobile manufacturers. These can be fantasy vehicles and/or realistically proportioned vehicles. These are designed in-house by Hot Wheels designers.
The #Muscle Bound is a Hot Wheels casting I’ve been draw to since its debut in 2019. Sure, that amazing deco on the first release had something to do with it, but six variants in, I’m still digging it! This futuristic muscle car has the lines, the attitude, […]
Chances are, you’ve encountered the Hot Wheels #Color Reveal containers before. Unless you’re a collector of a specific #Unlicensed Hot Wheels casting — or a super duper completist — you probably haven’t even bothered to pick one up off the shelf. I’ve bought a few of these 2-packs […]
Hot Wheels Designer Ryu Asada was known for being precise. It seemed as though he could beautifully scale-down any automobile and delivered a finely-tuned Hot Wheels casting. And, as simple as that may sound, it is no easy feat! As skillful as that is, what I truly admired […]
I love collecting Hot Wheels original designs like the #Mod Rod. No hype. No inflated prices. No collectors hoarding every single one off the pegs or raiding pallets. Besides the obvious, collecting #Unlicensed Hot Wheels has often exposed me to car genres I probably would have never dabbled […]

I’ve found myself collecting more and more #Hot Wheels Monster Trucks (HWMT) lately thanks to the unique castings the line offers. When Hot Wheels and Monster Jam split in the summer of 2018, I thought there was no way a line of mostly unlicensed trucks could survive. Yet […]
Hot Wheels of the Day Rodger Dodger Hot Wheels iD Series 2 / Rod Squad RELEASE YEAR: 2020 • CASTING DESIGNER: Larry Wood If you follow the values of Hot Wheels, one of the more puzzling ones has been the 2020 #Hot Wheels iD #Rodger Dodger. Released amid […]

We have reached the pinnacle of Hot Wheels premium thus far. That is a fact! Collectors like to oooh and ahhh over the latest mixes of #Car Culture, #Boulevard, #Replica Entertainment, #Fast & Furious, and sometimes even #Pop Culture. New mixes sell like hot cakes, while older ones […]
