Before we dive in, let me clarify that title. This is obviously a feature on the new Hot Wheels Panamera, and we are lucky to have a few thoughts from the Hot Wheels Designer who spearheaded this one, but why is it surprising? Lots of reasons. First, the actual car is surprisingly cool. I’ll say … Continue reading The surprisingly spectacular Hot Wheels Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo
Let's call this Part 1. Let's also mention that this is not a "vs." post. Comparisons are obvious - these are both premium Porsches - but these two are just awesome together. Plus, I may have already done the "vs" thing on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/BwJadU5h_9X/ Back to this being Part 1. Part 2, whenever it happens, … Continue reading A Tale of Two: Hot Wheels Silhouettes RWB Porsche 930 & RLC Magnus Walker 964
Christian Coujin from RAUH-Welt Begriff dropped this little doozy on IG: https://www.instagram.com/p/BlvdszTF8Y6/?taken-by=christiancoujin We have seen a lot of leaked images, but here is the completed product. The RWB Porsche is coming, and will debut in the 2019 Car Culture line, the first of three scheduled premium releases. I might question the number produced mentioned in … Continue reading The brand new Hot Wheels Car Culture RWB Porsche has been unveiled. And oh man…
#lamleydaily - July 27, 2018 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vm2P44abuYY Model: Porsche 934 Line: Kyosho Porsche Collection Where to get it: It'll pop up on ebay occasionally Why it's in the collection: Hot Wheels does a beautiful 934. Of course it is a $1 Hot Wheels, so Kyosho is going to have more detail. Still, I like the Hot … Continue reading [LAMLEY DAILY] Kyosho 1/64 Porsche 934 Jägermeister & Vaillant
Porsches have to be hard to replicate in 1/64 scale. The rounded edges and sloping lines, from what I hear from designers, can be very difficult to shrink into small scale. The canvas to work with is much smaller, and moving from one point on the car to another in such a small space can … Continue reading A tale of two Porsches: The new Hot Wheels 918 Spyder is a major upgrade over the Concept
I would say value doesn't hold a whole lot of weight in what I collect. I would have to think that is the case with most of you as well. Treating Hot Wheels purely as an investment is ludicrous. There are better, for more productive ways to get your kids through college. But value is … Continue reading Would you pay $1000 for a Hot Wheels Toy Fair Porsche 934?
The Super vs Super feature continues, with another obvious one. I will try and get more clever on my pairings, and Porsche vs Porsche isn't clever. Both are Porsches (duh), but they are also racing cars, and sport interesting Real Rider wheels. It is actually the wheels that made me feel like they were a … Continue reading Super vs Super: 2018 Hot Wheels Porsche 934.5 and 2016 Porsche 993 GT2
Por-SHUH. Por-SHUH. Por-SHUH. Maybe I'll remember it better if I link it to "Marcia! Marcia! Marcia!" Some of you will get that. I get grief for a lot of things, and my pronouncement of "Porsche" is near the top of the list. I was defiant at first, as everyone I knew said "Porsche" as a … Continue reading One cool Por-SHUH Super Treasure Hunt this is, this Hot Wheels Porsche 934.5.
While at the Hot Wheels Convention last month, attendees, as is always the case, got a preview of what is to come. There was a lot of premium models previewed, some of which I have been showing here, but a few basic models as well. Of all the mainline models previewed, none stood out as … Continue reading Yes, this is a Hot Wheels Porsche 917 LH. Coming to the mainline soon.
I thought about showing all the new Hot Wheels Entertainment Forza models together. I guess I already did, but in video form: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiuefSElR_Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JcC63jwLOA Those are videos, but come on, you and I both know the photos are more fun. (Subscribe to the Channel anyway.) So I took photos. Lots of them, of all five … Continue reading Classic, clean and cool: The new Hot Wheels Porsche 356 Speedster
