What happened with the hot wheels fags?
They're too busy being the actual most cancerous fanbase of any toyline to post here.
Anyone who has worked anywhere that sells hot wheels can back me up.

Think most hotwheels collectors would be huddled into a forum where they can talk with militaristic mods watching over them.
Anyway nothing special here, started as a treasure hunt collector but now I grab whatever looks cool, most come out of their boxes apart from stuff like pic related and my 2 super treasure hunts, didn't think supers came on short cards and yet there they were.

I work in a super market and no one bothers because of our prices.
Which is why my staff discount helps, that and I give myself first pick, when I buy from my own over priced store even with the discount its only worth it for the treasure hunts, end up buying the bulk from rival chains because of their prices beat my staff discount
I know TRU's are smashed by them, that hotwheels day here opened my eyes
Collecting Hot Wheels is a dangerous road to go down. I have impulsively picked up a few that looked really cool at that moment, but I almost always end up giving all the ones I've picked up during the year away to Toys For Totes during Christmas time (except certain vehicles like Batmobiles & DeLoreans).
Unfortunately, I have found a model I want to collect ALL the versions of: Fast Fish. It's a relatively newer model (started in 2008), so it has very few variants (compared to most other HW models) & SHOULD be easy to obtain all of.
Except the Connect Cars - Washington version; I'll probably never get that one.

Pssh! It's only $20 on Amazon
I would bend the hell out of these cards if I knew what in the world a treasure hunt was.
Here's my most recent pickups. Lucked out and found the Ghost Rider at Kroger, ever other store I went to had the full line except for him.
Also lucked out that they didn't stick a huge price sticker on the card like they seem to be fond of doing at my local store.

Yeah, but... I feel kinda dumb paying so much for something that was probably originally $1.99 at MOST. But, I wouldn't be on this board if I wasn't kinda dumb to begin with, eh??? Hahaha
Matchbox and Tomica are superior.
Too bad there's only HotWheels where I live.
After some time collecting I can say with certainty it's a waste of money and time.
Hot Wheels are all pretty shit in general.

I just picked up the single carded Ecto-1. Haven't seen the double pack anywhere at all. What store did you find it at?

>matchbox
OLD matchbox, because mattel own both some cares share molds.
That porche hotwheels set had a model I had from an old matchbox line, and when you got shit like the zamboni being all in plastic matchbox is dead and in its place is hotwheels driving its skin.
>tomica
Can't argue with the sculpt and paint apps, CAN argue with the price, $20 for one twin turbo supra from their vintage neo line is a tad much, still bought one
If you can import tomica and stay within a budget do that, really with hotwheels aim for the premium lines like >>5704143, rubber tires are the best you'll get
