What cars have you found lately?
This is going to sound strange but I haven't purchased a single 2023-24 HW mainline car during the past 2yrs. I've been concentrating on rollable, loose, vintage pieces from various mfrs. Redlines, Ultra Hots, Hot Ones, JL Toppers, 70s & 80s MBX Superfasts, Kenner Fast111s, Corgi Rockets & Whizwheels, Ertl, ect. My collection has gotten an major boost in those diecast genres. And believe it or not, I now have more raceable JL Toppers than HW Redlines. I never thought that would happen.
Picked up these two big boys. I think they're pretty cool:
Found this a few weeks ago at a local thrift store. It was in a back of random cars, mostly fantasy castings. Definitely the highlight of the bag! Unfortunately, It's not too fast. It drags to the right for some unknown reason. Still, a nice car to add to my collection!
Found this 77 hot ones Stingray today, along with an 02 Speed Blaster, 97 Solaire CX4, 03 16 Angels, 15 Loopster, 02 Escort, 97 Rescue Ranger, 98 F-Series, and this 96 Audi Avus. The wheels on the Stingray are perfect and spin forever, will be cracking them all this weekend.
- Very nice! — Dutch_Clutch_Racing
- That is what I call one sweet Corvette! — LottaSpeedRacing
- That Biohazard Rescue Ranger has been on my radar, but has been replaced by more race-ready vehicles. You have a nice selection there. — LobotomyScam
Let me get some sleep and I'll post a video in a day or 2. Love seeing what everyone finds.
$1 per unit at Smith's.
- WHAT! Two spectraflames of the same vehichle, in the same store, at the same time?!?!? — LottaSpeedRacing
- Goodness! You really hit the jackpot. I still haven't found a super, but I don't go to the store super often — ManiacMotorsports
- game stop used to be a good place for rare stuff — dr_dodge
- I am not big on $TH unless it's a car I really like. I do plan on trading them for older mainlines I want. — LobotomyScam
Been struggling to find new Hot Wheels where I live in the UK but found some really nice Mustangs at a Charity shop, here are a couple of them
- Nice finds! — JBlotner42

- Mmmmmm.....gold Mach 1! — Dutch_Clutch_Racing
- Very nice. Hopefully they run well. — LobotomyScam
52 HW Funny cars (hinged metal body/base) and a nice FTE 4-pack came in the mail today. The funny cars are for a future custom project and the FTEs make good rip n racers IMO

If you've been to Dollar General lately, you may have noticed the "Buy $20 worth of Hot Wheels, and get a free spectra flame red Nissan Silva," Heck yeah, baby! (Even though shipping and handling total $14, it still might be worth it.)
