    I miss the old days when hot wheels weren't as popular as today and you can still find the cars you want at your local grocery store😂

      Hot wheels have always been popular. I have loads from the late 60s. Yes. They have been popular for 50+ years.
      I know what you mean though.
      I used to buy loads at my supermarket but then they stopped selling in around 2021

      I think now days since ebay started or after it has caused resellers / scalpers to buy hw more then ever before to get certain cars just to resell for twice the value any. i use to have hw as a kid but then started getting for any reason and got plenty and gave some to kids for any reason .

      Now a days i rarely go hw hunting, so if find cars i real want then cool but if not i just save anytime. have read or heard so much that like box are precheckd so any u might want are already sold or taken ahead of time. so it like 5-50 chance get cars u really want for own enjoyment. i wanted hte new batman movie car and to save time i just got the 5 pack with the car and variety other cars so i saved time searching and just go with a value pack kinda, spent a tad more for the pack but atleast got the car plus any bonus cars

    tip for new collectors
    dont collect JUST for value sure value is something that comes with hotwheels but if you collect just for value it isnt really that good
    point of collecting diecasts is to get your favorite cars in a small scale it isnt really something to invest all your money in

    i’ve apparently owned some rare casts of the highway 35 and acceleracers sets since i was a kid. while the cars are probably in poor condition, the memories i’ve got playing with them are worth 50 times what they would’ve sold for otherwise.

      Same, i remember that back in the day i had a New Beetle that was quite limited and had lots of cool details along with the dismountable carcass. I was completely unaware of its possible value but i had lots of fun with it. I don't know where it is sadly since i lost it a while ago, but i had great memories of playing with it. Same escenario with a '08 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo and Speed Racer's HotWheels.

    Sometimes you do get lucky for instance you might run into a new collector that really wants that car and will overpay for what its worth. Also just the market value changes all the time lol... Its like gold.

    Great tip on finding the value of your Hotwheels! Definitely agree with you that your location depends on the value of the car! A muscle car super could be going for 40-50USD in US but in SG, it can only 40-50SGD here!

      @isaacsrandomvideos667 2 роки тому

      Prices are strange because they aren’t really worth anything. It’s all demand.
      The ones that are rare are definitely worth something but the ones people just pay a lot for aren’t worth more than normals. At least that’s how it should be

    I have been collecting hot wheels since i was a little boy . At some point , I stopped it . But after a few years I decided to go back collecting hot wheels . My country is close to Singapore but my country doesn't have much hot wheels . Toy's R Us doesn't have cars I want . One car is already RM9.99 which is basiclly RM10 . The rarest one in my collection is The Nissan Skyline C210 . I went online it was selling around RM 170 or more . (Btw , the McLaren F1 I bought it at D Hive I think and it was actually 7 Singapore Dollars so Drifter D said it perfectly)

  • @joelkalin9764

    Today I bought my second and third boxed HWs at my local supermarket (which has a decent HW range) and held the mclaren F1 in my hand, but chose not to buy it. That said though, I live in a very small city (sub 30k residents) so this car has to be really easy to find outside Singapore. This was the only store in town who sold a wide range of cars. The second store that sold HWs had three. I live in Sweden and the supermarket here is in no way as big as a Wallmart.
