Product Information

Soon after, Hot Wheels created the Hot Wheels Monster Trucks line and the Hot Wheels Monster Trucks Live show with the non-Monster Jam owned version of the Bigfoot truck as a competitor.

The former was able to change color on exposure to hot or cold water, and there was an initial release of 20 different cars, available as sets of three vehicles. This design failed initial testing, proving to be top-heavy and not functional with the Power Booster track accessory. Series 1 from 2005 consisted of 25 models, each with all-metal body and chassis, decked out with Spectraflame paint, in packages similar to those used from 1968 to 1972. In 2012, Super Treasure Hunts came with special paint and wheels, but with series designation on the card.

For the 4-digit codes, the first 3 digits indicate the day of the year and the last digit is the year. Three years later, Hot Wheels joined the Craftsman Truck Series team of Carlos Contreras and the No. The car has also undergone modification from its launch with KMC Wheels subbed in for the Foose one-offs that matched the 1/18th scale model's and Proch's original design.

Hot Wheels is an American brand of scale model cars invented by Elliot Handler and introduced by his company Mattel on May 18, 1968. It had 2,700 diamond chips, a total of almost 23 karats, and was cast in white gold, with rubies serving as taillights. Many Hot Wheels collectors have noticed in recent times that the US Basic mixes are more likely to have a Super Treasure Hunt in them compared to International Mixes.The partnership ended in 2019 after Feld Entertainment signed a new ten year toy licensing deal with Spin Master for Monster Jam, [56] diecast production stopped and the Hot Wheels team retired. The Sizzlers were a 1970s Hot Wheels spin off with a built-in motor and a tiny rechargeable battery.

Due to low sales, and the fact that the majority of the castings were not re-used in later years, the 1972-3 models are known to be very collectible.New models include the Cruise Bruiser, Side Ripper, Grass Chomper, and the '16 Acura NSX, while other models first see their release in the mainline series, such as the '52 Hudson Hornet. Harry Bentley Bradley did not think that would be the case and had quit Mattel to go back to the car industry.
