Well, I don't really collect them, but I did pick up the Ghostbusters' Ecto-1 Hotwheels version the other week. It's fantabulous!! :cool:
That Hot Wheels Ecto-1 is so cool! After seeing it, I'm now bidding on one on eBay.
It's very cool... and hard to find, sadly...
But well worth it! :)
Ive started collecting hotwheels/matchbox 1:64 cars. i keep an eye out for certain vehicles when shopping for transformers:).
My preferences are that they are mosc, and vw based buggies.
i only have 2 so far. a blue manx buggy, and a red vw baja buggy.

Newest series of Hot Wheels has a new mould Batmobile in it. I got one the other day. Pretty cool.
Here it is.

Found it in Kmart. Misplaced with other toys and looked for others in the hotwheel aisle and couldn't find any more collectibles.
Found a few more. Yellow Spider, Red 328 GTB, Red Testarossa and Gray 550 Barchetta ;) Pics later.
Batman custom HW.

Noticed that Toyworld Greensbrough (Melbourne) had some Hot Wheels from early 2000 and one of the first I saw was a first edition from 1999!
Amazing.
Should have taken a picture, but I was being watched.
From last year's post :)

I used some sales to pick up some stuff I liked in the Hot Wheels line.
Was trying to limit myself to just a couple of European cars, but I went a bit crazy

Picked up my first Hot Wheels Treasure Hunt and saw (and picked up) my first Super Treasure Hunt. If I see a T-Hunt I normally leave them for someone else, but this actually looked ok.
Just my luck, threw out all me hot wheels but kept matchbox and majorite:(
only have five cars left, ones really old:cool:

Having a half day off is bad - its leads to more Hot Wheels
I found a case of Hot Wheels - Mix H which introduces another Batmobile to the line. Opened it up and ...
I went a little crazy

Some more Hot Wheels and Matchbox thanks to 30% sales. Managed to get some doubles though.
Couple of items I brought over the weekend
http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...2011Haul05.jpg
Some more Hot Wheels and Matchbox ..
Well, for someone who is unemployed I really don't know how I got this many items!
http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...2011Haul05.jpg
Some USA Carded Hot Wheels from an importer in Wellington
http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a3...2011Haul06.jpg
Some new Hot Wheels from the Warehouse, including doubles and triples as I went a tad overboard.
-- Now to decide if I keep the USA ones in the collection or sell/trade them for other items
Is there any method to the release schedule for Hot Wheels?
In theory, one case per month, but this year there are 15 cases so its a bit faster this year. As a result, New Zealand has skipped a few case asssortments.
And is there any idea what each case assortment is?
I can't seem to find any info.
Been trying to find the same info myself.
There are 15 mixes this year, each given a letter of the alphabet (ie A Mix, B Mix, C Mix etc) and then each case also has two more letters (ie AA, AB, AC), so a case code would be something like AFY or DDV.
In each mix you are going to find at least two of the new cars per mix, maybe a treasure hunt (or super treasure hunt) and the rest of the assortment is made up of any number of random cars from the current year (or in the case of A and B cases, maybe cars from the previous year)
Nothing I can find anywhere that tells me what a case has in it exactly (ie a breakdown of each car in the 72 car case)

Got some new ones need to take pic.
I found (and bought) a treasure hunt '63 Thunderbird while shopping at Coles today.
Should I open it?
I've been going crazy with Deloreans.
I have the black, silver & gold one, in addition to the one with a flux capacitor (as a mum described it to her young son at Kmart).
Some more Matchbox and Hot Wheels

More new Hot Wheels!
Saw that Toyworld had got in a couple of 'P' Cases yesterday but because they hadn't been processed I couldn't raid.
Today I could.
And they even pricematched Kmarts and Warehouse prices, so I got more than I planned to orginally.
Wow! Alot of those I have never seen before. Must get meself some of those Ford GTs and Lambos!!
