If I’m honest, the last couple of Hot Wheels cases have had their share of good models, but not as many as we are used to. H Case makes up for it. A tremendous Super, and equally great basic counterpart, and some fantastic new models. And of course a Momo Datsun Wagon to keep us …

With “not normal” being the new normal, I was surprised to see a notification on Tuesday that my membership model had shipped. I was even more surprised to see that it would arrive the next day. And by golly it did. A lot of you had the same experience, and I have heard that even …

It is time to remove this from the "one-and-done" Hot Wheels list.
Video overload. A&J Toys sent over both the US and International G Cases from Hot Wheels. US came first, International the day after, and I have now opened both.
