Hot Wheels
Hot Wheels
I don't know about everybody else, but I have soft spot for Die-cast model cars, particularly Hot Wheels.
Some years ago I amassed a collection of well over 3,000 cars before I decided to sell them on,
but hung onto about 50 good ones.
However, while out shopping with my wife yesterday, I came across these two beauties:
a '65 Mercury Comet Gasser, and a '63 Plymouth Belvedere Hemi.
I fear it might be the start of another collection ?

Re: Hot Wheels
I have all the singles and box sets of the "batman" hotwheels packed away in the loft... Don't think there's any new ones yet.
If I see anything classic looking though, I'll pick it up and stick it in the box.
I like that 65 mercury.....

Re: Hot Wheels
I still remember my first introduction to them. They were so fast compared to the Matchbox cars,
and much cooler subjects too! Bright colours, chrome.
Sensory overload for a 10 year old on holidays from New Guinea!

Re: Hot Wheels
I have about a bunch of them in a spare display cabinet. I never have counted them.

Re: Hot Wheels
Back in the late 60s or early 70s the CHP gasoline contract was with Union Oil. At that time the Union stations were giving away a Hot Wheels car with every fill up. Needless to say, just about every one of us had all of the cars. Unfortunately, I gave them to my nephews as I got them and of course they were all destroyed. I often wonder just what a complete set would be worth today.
