A stellar R32 Skyline kicks off the Car Culture-inspired Fast & Furious line
Duh. This is how it should have always been. It just seems perfect. A Hot Wheels Fast & Furious Premium line. Seems like we should be in at least year five of this. But it was worth the wait. Five years ago, it would have been the same cars that we saw repeated over and … Continue reading A stellar R32 Skyline kicks off the Car Culture-inspired Fast & Furious line
Last week’s finds: Old Zamacs, a grocery shipper, Fast & Furious, and some Supers.
I've already showcased the three Supers I found in one bin, which was surely the find highlight of the week. But I think I was more excited about finding the the Fast & Furious Premium models. Nonetheless, I documented a lot of it, and that is what the Lamley Extras Channel is for. Some super … Continue reading Last week’s finds: Old Zamacs, a grocery shipper, Fast & Furious, and some Supers.
Case Report: Hot Wheels 2019 E Case
It's here. Call me a JDM nerd, but the basic model I have been most looking forward to is here. The Nissan Z32, designed by Dima and debuting is stellar white, will finally make it to my collection.

How great are the new Hot Wheels 6-spoke Real Riders?
Don't call them Volk TE37's. But you can whisper it. This will sound weird, especially in today's collector world, but there was a time that I thought Hot Wheels were FAR better on plastic basic wheels. And I wasn't alone. There were many folks who agreed. Hot Wheels has been doing Real Riders for a … Continue reading How great are the new Hot Wheels 6-spoke Real Riders?
A week of finds: Started weak, ended $uper strong.
I think it is pretty obvious I don't have the luck I used to have. Maybe more collectors in these here parts, definitely a large decrease in store visits, and who knows whatever else. I will always enjoy the random Hot Wheels Super TH find. A few years ago I did the Super TH Challenge, … Continue reading A week of finds: Started weak, ended $uper strong.
Hot Wheels Behemoth: Replica Entertainment ’75 Kenworth W900
There are a few Hot Wheels Behemoths. They aren't officially called "behemoths", but the word fits. Hot Wheels are in the 1/64 range, but aren't exactly to scale. Sometimes a Mini Cooper can be as big as a full-size pickup, because of packaging and weight limitations. And considering the production cost of each model is … Continue reading Hot Wheels Behemoth: Replica Entertainment ’75 Kenworth W900
Showcase: Hot Wheels Fast & Furious Premium Mix 1, Fast Imports
Yes, they are all over the place right now. And yes, they are deservedly getting gobbled up. And yes, I gobbled up a set myself when I finally found it at Walmart. And finally, yes, I opened them up as soon as I got home and compared them to previous FnF and HW releases. Oh, … Continue reading Showcase: Hot Wheels Fast & Furious Premium Mix 1, Fast Imports
