First Look: Matchbox Holden UTE SSV…
This is for my Australian friends. The UTE is such a popular car and casting there, but I would imagine this model will get mixed reviews. It does from me. I have really liked this casting since its debut in 2010. Just plain good-looking, always in great colors, and a no-brainer choice for Matchbox. This …

First Look: Matchbox Blizzard Buster…
We continue our look at several new models, so let's jump back into the Matchbox pool. Now this new Matchbox won't generate even close to the same amount of excitement as the Seagrave, but it is not hard to like at all. A polar vehicle like this one is a nice addition to the Matchbox …

Variation alert: Two more wheel variations on the Hot Wheels BMW M3 GT2…
It has probably become evident that I collect wheel variations, especially if they are found on my beloved imports and sports cars.

First Look: Hot Wheels The Turtle! (oops, I mean "The Bat")…
Holy cross-promotion, Batman!!I have seen this in the trailer, and it looks pretty darn cool. I think the play value will increase once people see the movie and figure out what it is all about.

First Look: Matchbox Classic Seagrave Fire Engine…
Ah, I remember why I like Matchbox so much...With all the frustration among collectors about the direction Matchbox has taken this year, there are occasional signs that Matchbox is still the brand so many of us love.
