The next batch of Car Culture Team Transport is on its way. Three sets, one a repeat - the Black Hole Gasser, which has been hard to find anyway - and a duo of supercool licensed cars. Mattel sent the mix over and I posted the preview last night. Photos coming? Yes, photos coming. https://youtu.be/r_4Rxvpg7vU

Opening the latest Hot Wheels Team Transport with JDM Legends
Two texts. The first a startled big eye emoji. The second, a photo of Hot Wheels latest Team Transport set, a Sukura Sprinter and C10 Skyline bearing the logo of JDM Legends. Eric and Josh at JDM Legends had just gotten a few samples, and those two texts had me there in minutes. Any reason …

It was a bit of a surprise to hear from a friend yesterday afternoon that he found the new Team Transport at Walmart. We have seen our friends in Australia finding them, but I didn't expect to see them here so soon. Alas, I was near a Walmart, so I walked in and there they …
