The Glory Chaser is a great homage to the early Can Am cars and that era that it takes a collector snob to not like the casting. It's just SO well done- it has elements of the old McLaren Elva, Jim Hall's Chaparral pre- rear spoiler race cars, and so many others of that era that you could tell someone who's just learning about vintage racing that the Glory Chaser was driven by Sterling Moss at Le Mans and no one would question you. It's just that well done.
Same with the '65 Merc. Like something you'd have seen at the drag strip in the 70's in the pre-show for Snake vs. Mongoose.
Unfortunate how overlooked it is just cuz it’s a fantasy casting
Superb critique
@@MM12684 Thank you!
@@joriuschuwa Agreed! I have to be honest though and admit I voted for the Celica.
Great video. I manage to pick up one of the Lotus Evija Supers at Wal-Mart. I think the Supra is my favorite though.
Volvo drift wagon is wild. Love the green and mismatched wheels.. awesome
It's probably in my top 3. And I say this as someone who didn't like the drift Mustang from last year very much.
Found the 300 SL, makes it a great year for me
The mustang this year is a bit underrated. The purple looks really good.
And it is a companion piece to a 69 Camaro from 2009. Same color, Hotchkiss deco too.
My first STH! I honestly love it, the purple is so smooth.
I just don't like the convertible aspect.@@andremonteiro1643
Ain't this exciting! 😄
I found the gulf treasure hunt this year, first one ever.
Really into the 935--nice dark blue spectraflame with the stock livery and appropriate wheel choice. Obviously not into the Batmobile. Shouldn't have been a Super and wasted a spot in this year's roster.
I just found the 935 today. To be honest, I mistaken it for a regular at first sight. The batmobile is the worst.
AND GLORY CHASER
Lucky you mate, well done.@@dkm07305able
it only differs a little from the ragular but its still one of the best sth s this year
batmobile was the only sth i found this year 🥲
For best Id say the Supra. I'm not a Supra fanboy but the model has a great sculpt, good color separation, and one of my favorite wheels. It came out strong for its debut.
Worst is the 300 SL, just because of the over saturation of the car. Car culture, mainline + STH, Elite 64, and RLC all within like a year.
I would have loved to see the one headlamp with a tampo. Would have taken it up a notch.
Best for me is the Lotus Evija, worst is easily the Tooned Batmobile and it’s not even close
I love the tuned Batmobile, but I feel this red didn't work for me. Not my most disappointing. Not by a long shot, but I feel spectra flame gold, antifreeze green or just spectra black would have fitted the casting better. STH or not that Mazda Coupe looks odd without it's detailed front and rear fenders. The Renault was an STH I found on the pegs so it holds a special place in my heart. Gas Monkey is a top contender for my top STH for 2023. Any car with Flames gets top tier level. Not a JDM guy, but man that Toy Supra was boss. It looks mean and menacing. Totally my style. Wanna see one in gloss black for 2024. That Selby rocks. Found the Cyclone and it's another contender for me. Total beast. I like the Datsun because of the color they chose, but I would love any Hot Wheels casting in Hot Pink.
I actually own two Super Treasure Hunts for the year of 2023. Those castings is the 1965 Mercury Comet Cyclone Gasser Super Treasure Hunt Edition and Glory Chaser Super Treasure Hunt Edition.
Two good ones niice 👍🏽
Only one I have for the year is the Cyclone Gasser. 😊
not a jdm collector, but the supra and 510 are my favourites this year.
Mr. Lamley,🏁I have 6 Supers from 2023 and my Favorites are first the 69 Shelby GT 500, then the Renault Sport RS 01, but the real Surprise was that Datsun 510 wagon! I got lucky and found it! Wow, I see what all the hype is about on this one! Everything about it is Amazing! I also want to find the Gas Monkey Vett but missed out on it as well as the Porsche 935 that one is the one that I was really after but never found it, but I did find 2 Mercedes 300s, a 67Camaro and a cyclone gasser. Least favorite, Camaro.PuzziCat☮️
so many cool ones! from the mighty K to the super clean presentation of the lotus, my fave has to be the supra though, but thats probably due to my personal connection to the mk2 supra chassis
Best
1. Datsun
2. Supra
3. Volvo wagon
4. Porsche
5. Mighty K
Worst
1. Batman
2. Mazda Cosmo
3. Renault
4. Gas Monkey
5..Mercury Comet
Man that Volvo Drift Wagon looks so nice 👏🏻 surely it won’t win, but they have a great casting there!!
To me all the super treasure hunts were awesome castings this year.👍
Online is the only place i will ever get to see a treasure hunt...considering our local discount store staff remove them before they go in the shop...leaving only the rubbish for us to pick through...they keep them for themselves...Yes Big W the hot wheels fans are on to you !!!
I've never found any super in my whole "hunt" career 😔
Don't know what's going on with them, but it seems here in Europe... it's a myth.
Italy, Germany, Slovenia, Bosnia, Serbia.. all of them and more have the same troubles finding them.
We have quite a large HW community in Croatia, but supers are mythological things by us.
Its between the lotus and the 935 for best for me. Both super clean.
Worst is the batmobile. Dont care for tooned cars and dont car about batmobiles so its the one i was most ehh about
I love the bluebird! That’s definitely my favorite. But the one I don’t like is that copo comaro. I just am not a fan of that scheme to say the most disappointing would be the Mazda. To say I am NOT a fan of it.
I agree with you on the camaro.
imo the evija is the best one for this year. Looks really great being as a 1:64 scaled.
With you on the Evija. The Lotus factory is around 40miles from where I live in Norfolk....I have also been lucky enough to have found TWO of it from the same shop around 4-5 weeks apart. One on 28th of September & another one was November the 1st. I would love to open one, but tempted to sell it on....
Top 5
1. Porsche 935 (best top pick, both basic version and $uper version are amazing)
2. '82 Supra (awesome retool, both basic and $uper are awesome)
3. Renault Sport RS 01 (nice to have a Renault back in the mainline)
4. Lotus Evija (awesome $uper)
5. '65 Mercury Super Cyclone (awesome to have a big casting as a $uper)
Honorable Mentions
1. Gas Monkey Garage Corvette (not the biggest fan of the basic, but the $uper is stellar)
2. Mighty K (awesome casting, worthy tribute to Ryu Asada)
3. '69 Ford Shelby GT-500 (awesome model, love the purple)
Underwhelming
1. Volvo 240 Drift Wagon (awesome casting, but unimpressed by the liveries)
2. Datsun 510 Bluebird (like the $uper more than the basic, but we have seen this casting a lot, and something different would have been nice, like the Classic Nomad)
3. '68 Mazda Cosmo Sport (cool orange colour, weird casting)
4. Glory Chaser (like the casting and the Gulf liveries, but the BMW I8 roadster should have been the $uper)
5. Mercedes-Benz 300SL (same as the Datsun, cool model, but something different would have been nice, like the '88 Pro Street Thunderbird)
Worst
1. Tooned Batmobile (worst top pick, all of the things collectors DON'T want: a batmobile, and a TOONED one at that)
2. '68 COPO Camaro (cool model, not sure why it had to be an Art Cars model as a $uper Treasure Hunt, when it could have been anywhere else, like HW Dream Garage)
Overall, had higher hopes for 2023.
2024 looks more promising in terms of both $upers and Regular Treasure Hunts.
THE BEST (82 TOYOTA SUPRA)
THE WORST (TOONED BATMOBILE)
I wish i was able to find a STH i have a hard time finding TH as it is. But i think I might have seen the super Mazda Cosmo possibly when i fist started collecting at the start of the year but of course i had no idea then
The most disappointing super for me is the Renault. Deco Looks too fantasy for me and I’m definitely not a fan of the lace wheels. I’m still trying to choose my favorite of the year. Stuck with the supra and 510
I like the Orange Mazda Cosmo Sport a lot.
I appreciate the video!
It was fun to watch! :)
The Lotus Evija and the Toyota Supra STH were the best this year hands down.
Personally, I felt 2023 STH's were disappointing compared to the last few years. So many other castings could've been selected and used. And making fantasy castings into Supers was just poor decision making. That toon'd Batmobile was just awful. Hopefully 2024 had a better selection.
I’ve been watching your channel for years and you give us fans some great content about upcoming model cars. I just got one not long ago off eBay that didn’t come cheap….a Tomica VeilSide FD RX-7. What are your thoughts on that casting?
Best: volvo 240 drift wagon
Worst: classic tv series batmobile
im a new sub some very cool rides there gosh if only i could have the eq i needed ouh boy the fun id haz !
Yes we as collectors know Lamley Group for this review yearly 🤠🇧🇸
Nice Job 😊😊😊
The '71 Datsun Bluebird 510 Wagon is so great but so hard to find.
I know a lot of people will be voting the bat mobile for “worst” but I think it’s great simply because of how big the wheels are. Since the wheels are so big, hotwheels needed to use a lot more rubber to make the super treasure hunt, so I think this model is much more valuable than it may initially appear. Now, that may not sound like much, but this is hotwheels we’re talking about here; the company who is so concerned about their expenses that they hardly ever put brake light deco on the cars that hardly even have any deco in the first place. I just like seeing any time hotwheels takes a financial risk as it shows how the company is willing to put their money at stake to make something special.
MaryAnn, loves her Batmobiels, well done for a Tooned casting. I found it for her in the wild, as well as a Glory Chaser, Mazda Cozmo 2, Mercedes SL 2, in the Wild, we won't see the rest until next year. Hahaha! The Supra gets my vote. Cheers!
Voted! Can't wait to see the results
Never noticed the dogs in back of Volvo drift wagon.
I found the Batmobile, Evija, Cosmo, Renault, Datsun, and Volvo. My favorite is probably the Datsun. Such a glorious difference from the regular. Least favorite is probably the Cyclone (not really into gassers) or Batmobile (tooned seems a little too silly for a STH).
John, say Glory....Chaser 😂
Still looking for that 2013 Viper, no stripes!!
Awesome
I started collecting hot wheels for my oldest son when he was a year old. It got too overwhelming so I collected from 1995 to about 2004. 24 cases that he played with and about 1200 cars that I never opened with maybe 10 treasure hunt cars unopened. I collected basicly uninformed on what to look for or what any were worth. Just did it for the fun of collecting. Here is my question, I've always noticed that hot wheels are always packaged in the same direction (back of car on left and front on the right so I have one from the 90s instead of back on left front on right, it's facing the opposite direction. Is this odd to see when hot wheels are packaged?
Very cool video lamley group
This is my favorite time of the year . Lamley awards!!
Gas Monkey 'vette, 240 Drift wagon, and the Shelby gets my vote this year.
I managed to find the Batmobile (which I left) Glory Chaser,and two Bluebird 510s in store this year. Would of liked to find the Supra and the Mighty K
Excellent as always maestro .. does anyone know who Hazel is? It says "Ryu loves Hazel" (my japanese is a bit rusty I note however) on the Tribute car ..
Best: Supra & Shelby.
Honorable Mention: Lotus & Porsche.
Worst: Mazda
Mustang for the Win!
I give my vote to either the Renault Sport RS01 (my first sth and my favorite car in general) or the Mercedes 300SL
I just noticed the dogs in the back of the volvo
I found the Porsche Super Treasure Hunt and didn't know it until I got home
Wow..... I gotta be honest, I was very excited for a video like last year, comparing them to the previous year. But, still, nice!
Actually found the Mercedes STH in a grocery store with the regular right next it. Who ever stocked it, knew it was different
Toyota Supra,Datsun 510 wagon 👍👍👍👍very nice
The Batmobile was a bad choice from Mattel. They could have chosen a better one from that case. The colour and the wheels are not that bad but still. The second car which i don't really like is the cosmo. The wheels are way too narrow compared to the regular one.
As for the best ones, for me the Renault takes the victory because I managed to find it and it is my first sth. The 935 is a very cool one. It not differs much from the regular one but the colour the deco the wheels are really work together.
The Supra by far is the BEST for me, but that Cyclone would have to my worst! This is the first year to where I actually found EVERY STH in the wild, so seeing them w my own eyes makes voting easier!
Rumor is Mattel loosing Porsche license .. I wonder how true that is
My favourite one is glory chaser because very beautiful
510 wagon Supra and Porsche in that order for me
Im going to be 100% biased with this one & have voted for the Lotus Evija...why?
Well for starters I like Lotus models & been collecting years, plus I love that red Candyapple colour, plus the wheels remind me of those on the blue Huracan twin pack model. Secondly, I live in the same English county of Norfolk where Lotus are based & am old enough to remember when the company had a successful F1 team. Thirdly the real car is ridiculously fast & typically of Lotus, quite a lairy machine. But finally, its the only STH that Ive found this year, when i discovered one on September 28th. Oddly though I was in the same shop on November the 1st, looking through the pegs, see a dark red Lotus & holy smokes, it was another STH. Something ive never done is find 2 Supers before in the same year, nevermind the exact same model!!
I found 5 of them so far 💪
There isn't a "most disappointing" vote for the super treasure hunts, but for me it would easily be the '82 Toyota Supra. This is one of my favorite cars from the 80s, but HW really botched it here. The proportions are so bad I have a hard time recognizing it as a Supra. I'm really looking forward to the one being released by AutoWorld. They got it right.
Love the opinion 👍
Almost like one is marketed as a toy and the other is marketed as a true scale collectible. Mind blowing stuff.
@@justinjustin5846true. People who collect Hot Wheels forget sometimes that their brand of choice is not a "true scale accurate replica of a real life car", but a toy, sometimes based on a real car, other times not, but most of the times made to look wacky and over the top.
As a collector of both real and fictional castings, I really liked this custom look for the old Supra, more than the old HW casting for this car - it was too plain. The new one really has the HW feel to it, kinda similar in bodykit to the R32 casting from the 2000s.
For the real deal I also managed to have the Matchbox rally-themed casting of the '82 Supra, released back in 1983. Great stuff.
Nice, go and buy it and stop cry about, at the end of the day is a f toy mate
Looking to get the Advan Toyota Supra from Auto World
I personally like the Mercedes 300. I want a real one so the choice was easy
tooned batmobile is the worst handsdown
Agreed
What day does the survey close?
West coast flyer best for me if it counts
I don't really get excited for the Super Treasure Hunt poll. I mean none of these have much meaning to me. Obviously, Super Treasure Hunts aren't anything I collect. The cost of entry is just way too high and I'd much rather put those funds to better use for more detailed models, such as paying 3x SRP for Car Culture online.
for me title the best STH of the year is defitinely the datsun 510 wagon, no doubt..
The Camaro is my favorite for the year.
You all thought the Batman was the worst but you still looked through all of them when they were lined up on the peg. 😅
Question I have the MIGHTY K and the DATSUN BLUEBIRD WAGON [510] but both in different colours and it doesn’t have the logo printed on the packaging what does that means please 🙏 thank you love your work mate ❤
Means you have the regular versions. The regular Bluebird is purple with totally different wheels and the regular Mighty K is just plain red
…And just voted…. Interesting results on the running poll thus far 🤔
The cyclone #1
definatley the batmobile nobody wants that thing lol lol..the best the supra nice color red on it
Lol. I agree 100%
Porsche 935 😊
WHAT WAS THE BEST SUPER FOR 2023 ? did they ever announce it ?
My favorite is the Shelby mustang and most disliked is the bat mobile.
Only one I got was the Camaro.
I thought that was by far the most ugly and disappointing $TH of the year, pretty much all year until very recently. The colors really pop, the tires look sweet, and seeing it next to all the other Sth's makes it stand out even more.
My favorite toy hotwheels cars super treasure hunts in the Porsche 935 and the worst is the mercury cyclone gasser Mattel should done regular mercury cyclone then the gasser look disappointed …
BEST COSMO 935 510 SUPRA WORST GLORY CHASER AND BATMOBILE
I believe the Lotus Evija is pronounced ah-vie-uh.
The best was the Gulf Glory Chaser followed close by the Supra ...
Worst im sure everyone will say its the tooned Batmobile....
Camaro/celica
My favorite is the Renault
Supra, Porsche, lotus. IMHO.
the best 300SL...510😚
Datsun Wagon, Supra and Mustang in that order.
You still rule even after Thanksgiving day Lamely.you still rule.
Supra and gasser.
621🔥👀🇦🇺
Really hard to pick Best and Worst this year IMO.
935 .. easy
Can anybody explain why a McLaren has never been made into a super?
OK, maybe it's going to be tough deciding on the worst Super between the Supra and Volvo. A Volvo 240 Wagon is definitely something to get me excited... that is until we got this trash. This model went from something I was highly anticipating to a casting that makes my stomach turn. They need to smash the tooling for this casting and not look back. Horrible, horrible garbage!
Best and worst? Doesn't matter when you never find 'em!
Porsche is honestly the worst imo it’s literally just a mainline with minute differences.
