Yeah picked up the 2002 BMW again, already got it in Orange, but liked the blue to go with some of my other BMW's. This video explains the 2013 Treasure hunts very well, and the supers. ;D Going to burst the bubble, there are no Supers on short cards in Europe, Well documented on the hotwheels collector sites. Grizz there a 62 Chevy pickup in the latest box's in the shops. Hi Matt, Thanks for the lovely surprise in the post today. Interestingly, Nicola has banned me from painting one up.....  No probs.... Did anyone note that the two models have different front packaging printing?? Wonder why the open space on the red one is not also covered in warnings to prevent Darwin from being proved correct ;D ;D  |

I'm struggling, as if the supply chain has died, all my normal places are really struggling I tried joining that forum too, but my membership aint been approved yet. I'm less Hotwheel this week, more flat tyre! |

I must admit things in the world of Hotwheels do seem a bit on the sparse side at the moment...!

I bought the chevy gasser a while ago as it was sitting on a shelf in the supermarket away from the main box-full and i really liked it, never really looked at them before. Then crimbo came so i bought some for my neice (and me) and my godson (and me, rude not too). Then I found a nice little display case able to hold 15 hotwheels size cars in their own section, so i figured ive really got to fill it up. So I did. Now i cant stop!

Red has a empty bed, far better model. |

Yeah was in Asda today, they used to have a dump bin which has been taken away. My local Tesco had a delivery though, managed to score me another Treasure Hunt, sadly it's the Green truck i already have but will make good swaps! |

I've found my new favorite Hot Wheels the other day (for this week anyway ;D) I had to buy the 2 that were on the shelf, one to take out to play with, the other to leave on the card. Its so cool!   |

I got that with an AE86 a few weeks ago. With some rubbish wheels and no decals, they could have had a Two Lane Blacktop tie in.

It's always good to see some older stuff on display, especially when it's a model you've yet to nab!!!
I got some good 'uns in my local Tesco Metro yesterday... I am particularly pleased with the Stingray Corvette convertible 'K-9 Patrol' car...!!!

The Gasser is one of my favourites in my collection and is the favourite American car I own. I am tempted to buy another to paint in flat grey as a companion to it. Been looking at customising Hot Wheels threads on a couple of forums... dangerous... as I now want to start swapping wheels around and all sorts.

Hotwheels racing only seemed to come white, black and blue. There IS a car this year in red with the Logo on, think it's a Mustang, it has red plastic wheels too. I'll see if i can find one.
